Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future Gone is the age of "left-brain" dominance.

Joseph LeDoux Anxious
Using the Brain to Understand and Treat Fear and Anxiety Joseph LeDoux, whose NYU lab has been at the forefront of research efforts to understand and treat fear and anxiety, explains the range of these disorders, their origins, and discoveries that can restore sufferers to normalcy. Treatment of these problems must address both their conscious manifestations and underlying non-conscious processes.

Nita Farahany Battle for Your Brain
Defending the Right to Think Freely in the Age of Neurotechnology A new dawn of brain tracking and hacking is coming. Will you be prepared for what comes next? Imagine a world where your brain can be interrogated to learn your political beliefs, your thoughts can be used as evidence of a crime, and your own feelings can be held against you. A world where people who suffer from epilepsy receive alerts moments before a seizure, and the average person can peer into their own mind to eliminate painful memories or cure addictions. Neurotechnology will soon become the "universal controller" for all of our interactions with technology. This can benefit humanity immensely, but without safeguards, it can seriously threaten our fundamental human rights to privacy, freedom of thought, and self-determination. From one of the world's foremost experts on the ethics of neuroscience, The Battle for Your Brain offers a path forward to navigate the complex legal and ethical dilemmas that will fundamentally impact our freedom to understand, shape, and define ourselves.

Norman Farb & Zindel Segal Better In Every Sense
How the New Science of Sensation Can Help You Reclaim Your Life Break out of negative patterns, relieve anxiety, build new habits, and find fresh motivation by using the groundbreaking "sense foraging" technique How do you make a change in your life when the tools you used to rely on start letting you down? We often think we need to "tough it out" or "try harder." But doing that makes our brains double down on the patterns that got us stuck in the first place. Neuroscientist Norman Farb and clinical psychologist Zindel Segal explain that the brain has two networks-the rapid problem-solving (habit) network and the sensory network, which is devoted to fresh insight. By tuning into sensations-from the feeling of our feet on a crowded street to the sound of birdsong in the park-we can engage the sensory network. When we're stressed or stuck, we can use "sense foraging" to boost our resilience, well-being, health, and creativity wherever we are. Grounded in scientific research and filled with simple exercises and practical mental techniques, this book explores the power of sensory experiences to liberate us from ruts and dead ends-and handle all of life's challenges.

Mona Delahooke Brain Body Parenting
When we begin to understand the biology beneath the behavior, suggests Dr. Delahooke, we give our children the resources they need to grow and thrive-and we give ourselves the gift of a happier, more connected relationship with them. Brain-Body Parenting empowers parents with tools to help their children develop self-regulation skills while also encouraging parental self-care, which is crucial for parents to have the capacity to provide the essential "co-regulation" children need. When parents shift from trying to secure compliance to supporting connection and balance in the body and mind, they unlock a deeper understanding of their child, encouraging calmer behavior, more harmonious family dynamics, and increased resilience.
