“A fascinating look into why people reveal what they do about themselves—and how we can all communicate better with others.” —Arthur C. Brooks, bestselling author of From Strength to Strength A groundbreaking book on the surprising potential of revealing more of ourselves to others, from a celebrated Harvard Business School professor and expert on the psychology of personal disclosure decisions We all know the feeling: that gut-wrenching post-conversation replay, cringing at how much we just revealed. We live in fear of saying too much, so we keep our mouths shut, guard our emotions, and lock away our most personal thoughts. But what if we’ve been worrying about the wrong thing? A growing body of research shows we vastly underestimate the value of sharing more than we think we should, with our spouses, friends, colleagues, and even strangers. Drawing on over a decade of research and real-life stories, behavioral scientist Leslie John explores why we hesitate to open up, when sharing really does backfire, and how to strike a balance between too much and too little. Learning to be more vulnerable and open at work and at home can unlock some of life’s richest rewards: deeper friendships, stronger professional relationships, greater well-being, and, yes, even love. Revealing is a road map for making smarter, bolder, and ultimately more satisfying decisions about just how much you want to share and why.

The Underrated Power of Oversharing

Revealing

A celebration and exploration of gossip, reclaiming it as a powerful tool for building relationships, sharing vital information and enabling women's voices to be heard.Tittle-tattle. Hearsay. Rumours. Bitching. Tea.Call it what you will: the fact remains that gossip is entwined into our daily lives. From group WhatsApp chats to click-bait headlines, social media snooping to reality television, there is nothing more devilishly delicious, scandalous, and satisfying than a juicy piece of gossip.All-too-often dismissed as the pastime of silly schoolgirls and bored housewives, there's more to gossip than meets the eye. In today's world of misinformation, where the voices and stories of women are being silenced, gossip has the power to shatter reputations and destroy credibility. Yet it can also be a vital political tool; a communication style that strengthens relationships and can even act a life-saving measure.Tracing gossip's roots from old wives' tales and the witch trials to reality TV, whisper networks and defamation lawsuits, Beyond Beliefasks, have we lost the ability to listen; to hear, and to believe women who speak up and speak out?A joyous reclamation of women's words, this book is for anyone who's ever uttered the words, 'You won't believe this...'

Beyond Belief

Die Gesellschaft rückt nach rechts, der 
 gebärfähige Körper
 wird zum Politikum. Bestechend klug analysiert 
 Sibel Schick
 , warum mit unseren Körpern keine Politik gemacht werden darf.
 
 Dass 
 Schwangerschaftsabbrüche Leben retten
 können, hat Sibel Schick am eigenen Leib erfahren. Und auch, gegen welche Widerstände sie ankämpfen musste, bevor der rettende Eingriff durchgeführt wurde. 
 Körperliche Selbstbestimmung
 ist aber keine Privatsache: Ob und unter welchen Bedingungen wir Kinder bekommen wollen, ist hochpolitisch. 
 Reproduktive Freiheit
 wird heute unter Strafe gestellt, Staaten bestimmen über den 
 Zugang zu medizinischer Versorgung
 – auch in Deutschland. 
 Berührend und kämpferisch
 zeigt Schick, dass echte Gerechtigkeit in einer 
 gemeinsamen Befreiung
 liegt.

The Fallen Gods Trilogy

Faithbreaker

'Brilliant and discursive'Antonia Fraser, Sunday TimesWinner of the FAWCETT PRIZEand EMILY TOTH AWARDIn the 2000 years since her death Cleopatra has been re-created over and over again by poets, artists and filmmakers, each time in a form that fits the prejudices and yearnings of the age that produced it. To Chaucer she was the model of a good wife, while to Cecil B.De Mille she was 'the wickedest woman in history'.This book is about the real Cleopatra, the most powerful woman in her world, but also about the legion of imaginary Cleopatras and about the sexual, racial and political messages they carry.

A leading psychologist and philosopher challenge the shortcomings of rational choice theory-and propose a new framework for understanding decision-makingFor many decision scientists, their starting point-drawn from economics-is a quantitative formula called rational choice theory, allowing people to calculate and choose the best options. The problem is that this framework assumes an overly simplistic picture of the world, in which different types of values can be quantified and compared, leading to the "most rational" choice. Behavioral economics acknowledges that irrationality is common but still accepts the underlying belief from economics of what a rational decision should look like.In this book, Barry Schwartz and Richard Schuldenfrei offer a different way to think about the choices we make every day. Drawing from economics, psychology, and philosophy-and both inspired by and challenging Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow-they show how the focus on rationality, narrowly understood, fails to fully describe how we think about our decisions, much less help us make better ones. Notably, it overlooks the positive contribution that framing-how we determine what aspects are most important to us-contributes to good decisions. Schwartz and Schuldenfrei argue that our choices should be informed by our individual "constellation of virtues," allowing for a far richer understanding of the decisions we make and helping us to live more integrated and purposeful lives.

'Read this book! Hotwired is a masterpiece of story-driven science that unpacks that health benefits of heat.' Dan Buettner, National Geographic Fellow, New York Times bestselling author and founder of the Blue Zones A radical exploration of how our bodies can harness heat for optimum health by #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of Outlive. In Hotwired, science editor Bill Gifford explores how heat can improve our performance and our health. Combining cutting-edge science, personal discovery and practical insights, Gifford reveals how humans evolved to excel in hot conditions - and how we've lost touch with this ancient advantage. He plunges into the steamy world of Finnish saunas, serves as a test subject in heat labs and tackles a 100-mile bike ride under the blazing Texas sun to show how exposing ourselves to discomfort can expand our physical and mental limits. He even explores how infrared sauna therapy and cold plunging could fight depression more effectively than medication. And he examines how, in cities around the globe, social saunas are reviving communal wellness. Whether you want to perform better, extend your lifespan or adapt to a warming planet, Gifford shows you the incredible benefits of reawakening your body's natural adaptability to heat and cold. Hotwired is a thrilling call to reimagine heat - not as a threat, but as a tool for strength, resilience and longevity.

For anyone who is overwhelmed, stressed, or lonely in today's world, or who simply senses they have an untapped potential to lead a more fulfilling life, here are ways to flourish. The human species is experiencing a massive mental health crisis. Depression is now the leading cause of morbidity globally. Loneliness is more dangerous to our health than smoking 15 cigarettes per day. Suicide rates in different groups in some parts of the world are skyrocketing and cut across social class and income. Distractibility and impairments of concentration are at an all-time high, and teens are spending more time on social media than they do sleeping. Now, based on decades of neuroscientific research, Dr Richard J. Davidson, a pioneering neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author, and Dr Cortland Dahl, one of the world's foremost experts on the science and practice of meditation, share their groundbreaking scientific model - the Healthy Minds Framework - that highlights the four core skills of human flourishing to counteract such problems. Each skill - awareness, insight, connection, and purpose - translates into practices that all of us can do in simple ways, every day, with enormous positive results. When we cultivate these skills, we can navigate life's ups and downs with far more resilience and calmness, on a path to a life that feels balanced, rich, and rewarding.

Warum sind Gefühle für Männer immer noch eine Herausforderung? Wir kennen sie: Männer, die ihre Gefu¿hle nicht zeigen ko¿nnen - oder nicht wollen. Wenn ihre Emotionen sichtbar werden, dann oft als Wut, Freude und Stolz, aber nur selten als Trauer, Zweifel oder verletzliche Liebe. Frauen und Queers beklagen, dass sie die emotionale Arbeit u¿bernehmen, die Männer ihnen, sich selbst und einander verweigern. Doch auch Männer zahlen dafu¿r einen hohen Preis: Sie leiden unter sozialer Einsamkeit, oberflächlichen Freundschaften und u¿berdurchschnittlich hohen Suizidraten. Weshalb hält sich ein so zersto¿rerisches System aufrecht?Brutal fragile Typen deckt die komplexen und vor allem politischen Verflechtungen von Gefühlen und Männlichkeiten auf, die uns bis heute daran hindern, emotional auf Augenhöhe zu sein.
