Publisher's Summary:

This book is based on the first two years of The Dr. Bo Show, where Bo takes a critical thinking-, reason-, and science-based approach to issues that matter with the goal of educating and entertaining. Every chapter in the book explores a different aspect of reason by using a real-world issue or example.

Part One is about how science works, even when the public thinks it doesn't. Part Two will certainly ruffle some feathers by offering a reason- and science-based perspective on issues where political correctness has gone awry. Part Three provides some data-driven advice for your health and well-being. Part Four looks at human behavior and how we can better navigate our social worlds. In Part Five, we put on our skeptical goggles and critically examine a few commonly-held beliefs. In the final section, we look at a few ways how we all can make the world a better place.

Title: Every Moment of a Fall

Subtitle: A Memoir of Recovery Through EMDR Therapy

Author: Carol E. Miller

Narrator: Lisa Flanagan

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 42 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-01-16

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

Carol E. Miller was 16 when the private plane piloted by her father crashed, pinning her in the wreckage, critically injuring her parents, and killing her 12-year-old sister. Compounding this traumatic event, her father told her he wished she had died instead of her sister. For the next 20 years, she labored under feelings of guilt and a lack of self-worth.

When another in a long line of personal crises landed her in therapy with an EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) practitioner, she began at last to investigate the crippling effects of the plane crash. Using bilateral stimulation to access her fiercely guarded memories, she learned to challenge the belief that the crash was all her fault and that she didn't deserve to be alive.

This is a brave and revealing memoir of recovery from tragedy and a fascinating, vividly narrated exploration of the increasingly popular eye-movement therapy developed to heal the wounds trauma leaves in its wake.

Members Reviews:

Excellent, w/ rare insights into trauma

I do a fair amount of audio books and found this to be in the top tier. The writing is poetic, the tone intimate, and the content describes an inner process we rarely get to view: our own, or that of others.' While the dramatic audio performance is excellent, my one complaint is that, especially in the early chapters, Flanagan takes long, unnecessary pauses between every single sentence, which I found quite tedious until I resigned to it. Otherwise, and all in all, her voice is pleasant and captivating and the memoir wonderful: an extremely useful and important addition to the genre.

Mind Blowing

It is hard to believe that anyone would have so much happen to them of this magnitude , let alone find healing.

Although I was not familiar with this form of therapy it opened my eyes so that I'd want to share with anyone needing deep healing. I believe Carol's therapist is gifted.

Carol's willingness to share her journey through painful truth is amazing . But to write her story of healing was a testament to her amazing capability as a writer

The women who did the audio was best I've heard and I heard al lot.

I will highly recommend the book and this form of therapy.

Freedom

As someone who has had EMDR therapy for a much less traumatic situation, this was a fascinating story in its parallels. I have complemented my recovery with EMDR CD's, which is what I was searching Amazon for when I found this book. Like Carol, I have discovered that what you start therapy for is often the a symptom of a totally other event. Kudus to her and her therapist! I am not sure if this would appeal to a broad audience, but for me it was

Title: Summary of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain | Book Summary Includes Analysis

Publisher's Summary:

This is a book summary of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain

Original book description:

At least one-third of the people we know are introverts. They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking, reading to partying; who innovate and create but dislike self-promotion; who favor working on their own over brainstorming in teams. Although they are often labeled "quiet", it is to introverts that we owe many of the great contributions to society - from van Gogh's sunflowers to the invention of the personal computer.

Passionately argued, impressively researched, and filled with indelible stories of real people, Quiet shows how dramatically we undervalue introverts and how much we lose in doing so. Taking the reader on a journey from Dale Carnegie's birthplace to Harvard Business School, from a Tony Robbins seminar to an evangelical megachurch, Susan Cain charts the rise of the extrovert ideal in the 20th century and explores its far-reaching effects. She talks to Asian American students who feel alienated from the brash, backslapping atmosphere of American schools. She questions the dominant values of American business culture, where forced collaboration can stand in the way of innovation, and where the leadership potential of introverts is often overlooked. And she draws on cutting-edge research in psychology and neuroscience to reveal the surprising differences between extroverts and introverts.

Cobbled together and rushed

Any additional comments?

Most of the text appears to have been shoddily translated from French. For example, "casein intolerance" (which in French would be "intolérance à la caséïne") becomes, in the text, "casein bigotry" (uh?). So I must often back-translate what is said into French to figure out what the author meant.

The narrator does not help the book much: he often talks about HDHD instead of ADHD, and the whole section on meditation is read as "medication"... right at the start of the chapter that describes non-medication options ! He also has no sense of rhythm and reads every sentence in one of three repetitive patterns, which makes it hard to concentrate on what he says (which, in a book devoted to an audience with ADHD, is a fatal flaw).

In general, the book has the feel of something cobbled together and rushed.

Dissapointing

Though informative, archaic language and poor narration was so distracting it was hard to finish (& I don't have ADHD). Words were mispronounced and even incorrectly read -for example: "medication" was repeatedly spoken in a chapter on meditation.

Great Resource

I liked that it gave a wide variety from what to eat and not eat, vitamin deficiencies, different medications and why each is helpful. Thank you for a great book.

Very Educational

It gave a more in depth look on how to approach ADHD with more nutrional diet approach than a severly medicated approach. By doing or limiting things in your diet may cause a significant avantage to treating ADHD

Title: Failure: Why Science Is so Successful

Author: Stuart Firestein

Narrator: Stephen Paul Aulridge Jr.

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 11 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-07-16

Publisher: Wetware Media

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 20 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

The general public has a glorified view of the pursuit of scientific research. However, the idealized perception of science as a rule-based, methodical system for accumulating facts could not be further from the truth. Modern science involves the idiosyncratic, often bumbling search for understanding in uncharted territories, full of wrong turns, false findings, and the occasional remarkable success.

In his sequel to Ignorance (Oxford University Press, 2012), Stuart Firestein shows us that the scientific enterprise is riddled with mistakes and errors - and that this is a good thing! Failure: Why Science Is So Successful delves into the origins of scientific research as a process that relies upon trial and error, one which inevitably results in a hefty dose of failure. In fact, scientists throughout history have relied on failure to guide their research, viewing mistakes as a necessary part of the process. Citing both historical and contemporary examples, Firestein strips away the distorted view of science as infallible to provide the public with a rare, inside glimpse of the messy realities of the scientific process.

An insider's view of how science is actually carried out, this book will delight anyone with an interest in science, from aspiring scientists to curious general listeners. Accessible and entertaining, Failure illuminates the greatest and most productive adventure of human history, with all the missteps along the way.

Members Reviews:

Challenges me daily

Great lesson! The positive philosophy that Firestein provides is relevant to all life's endeavors whether politics, religion, the arts, business, or science, to be broad-minded, build on errors (don't hide them), & consider newly discovered "truths" to be provisional.

Title: Living with Multiple Personalities: The Christine Ducommun Story

Author: Christine Ducommun

Narrator: Andrea Ways-Mewman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 10 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-23-16

Publisher: Bettie Youngs Book Publishers Co., Inc.

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

Christine Ducommun was a happily married wife and mother of two when, after returning to live in the house of her childhood, she began to experience panic attacks and night terrors. Says the author, "I sought therapy, and there I discovered, to my shock and horror, that I had been sexually abused at the hands of my father at a very early age. I surely didn't want to believe it. But as my mind began to release bizarre flashbacks, my alters began to show themselves. Suddenly I lived a life even I couldn't understand: I was a devoted mother, wife, and church leader but also a convicted thief, a promiscuous alcoholic, and a prescription drug addict. Things got much worse before they got better."

Christin was eventually diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder (DID), and her story details an extraordinary 12-year ordeal of coming to grips with the reemergence of competing personalities her mind had created to help her endure her early years. Therapy helps to reveal the personalities, but Christine has much work to do to grasp their individual strengths and weaknesses and understand how each helped her cope and survive her childhood as well as the latent influences they've had in her adult life. Fully reawakened and present, the personalities struggle for control of Christine's mind, and her life tailspins into unimaginable chaos, leaving her to believe she may very well be losing the battle for her sanity. Christine's only hope to regain her stability is to integrate each one's emotional maturity while jettisoning the rest, until at last their chatter in her head could cease. This task, taken on by her gutsy therapist, proves to be the major struggle of her adult life. It takes her on a journey that few with her disorder have the courage or fortitude to travel. A candid look at the effects of sexual abuse, this elegant book shines a bright light on the fragility of the mind and the durability of the spirit. A story of courage, healing, identity, and hope.

Thank you

Thank you for sharing your experience with the world. Yours sounds very similar to others and

offers additional proof of D.I.D.

.

Wish you luck in your new life...

very accurate description of how D.I.D feelings

very touching , very inspirational , and I recommend it to anyone , esspesicaly those struggling with D.I.D themselves .

A story that fails to rise above.

This is the story of Christine Ducommun's abuse as a child, descent into mental illness, and partial recovery. The story is fascinating, if only by the sense of darkness and suffering it conveys. The writing, while not artistic, is coherent and orderly. The performance is much the same.

If you are looking for the inside view of living with mental illness, of its complicated and broken relationships, and the fallout of childhood sexual abuse, this book delivers. One could read it as a case for compassion for the mentally ill. It might have been the foundation of a substantive feminist critique of the culture of Christine's childhood. Indeed, as a portrayal of the suffocating misery of women who are trapped in unfulfilling and unfaithful marriages, the book could have been both powerful and poignant.

And yet, it is the "could of been" that I sensed most strongly when I reached the end. I wanted more.

Title: Soothe Yourself: Learning Emotional Self-Regulation

Subtitle: Transcend Mediocrity, Book 88

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 15 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

For People with Anxiety, Depression, NPD, BPD, IED, SPD, Bipolar, ADHD, ASPD, AVPD, and ASD

Many of us are battling depression, anxiety, mental illness, or personality disorders. We feel anxious, frustrated, and overwhelmed. We don't have the support systems to help lift us up and to help us cope with the stressors of daily life. We want to make things better for ourselves, but we may be at a loss as to how to do so.

One of the first steps in fixing your life and your anxiety is to learn how to regulate your emotions. Our emotions cause us to feel out of control sometimes. Our emotional liability and the traumas in our histories are often to blame for many personality disorders and mental illnesses. They cause the increase in the stress hormone cortisol in our bodies, which then causes damage to our sensitive brains and our organs.

Most of our parents haven't passed down emotional maturity. Emotional maturity is an extremely important thing for each person to work toward and strive for in our lives. It helps us feel whole and balanced. It helps us to make better decisions for ourselves. It helps us to feel that the world around us is safe instead of dangerous and caustic to us.

Many members of the "normal" population were able to develop emotional maturity. However, many of us are missing this key element in our development. How do we find emotional maturity if we haven't developed it since childhood?

This book helps develop skills in emotional self-regulation. We can learn how to soothe ourselves. We can get in touch with the inner child that was wounded long ago, and seek to heal it.

Title: Narcissist: 13 Reasons to Leave the Narcissist

Subtitle: The Narcissist Borderline Relationship Dynamic: Transcend Mediocrity, Book 98

Author: J.B. Snow

Narrator: Pete Beretta

Format: Unabridged

Length: 28 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-18-15

Publisher: JB Snow Publishing

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 10 votes

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

Many of my readers send me stories of their narcissistic partners or men whom they desire to date who exhibit narcissistic traits. They often wonder whether staying with or getting with these men is worth the effort.

In pursuing relationships with narcissists, we are often wrapped up in their tornadoes of manipulation, lies, and drama. Many women find it exciting and exhilarating to be with someone who is so erratic, eccentric, and seemingly unstable. These same women claim to feel dead inside if they meet "boring" and normal guys who can be there for them on a consistent basis.

We have all heard how toxic narcissists can be. We know that they often use and take advantage of others throughout their lives in order to build up their own sense of self and their own self-esteem and self-confidence. How do we know when to leave our narcissistic relationships? Where do we draw the line?

This audiobook seeks to expose the true nature of the narcissist and his relations with others. The most important thing that one can do is to consider these truths before or during a relationship with a narcissist. We must educate ourselves on the ways in which they can alter our lives or our relationships. We must educate ourselves on when is the appropriate time to get out of the relationships because they are no longer meeting our own needs.

Publisher's Summary:

Most people have heard about Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Many of us believe that PTSD is a condition that is only diagnosed in veterans that are coming back from wars. But does PTSD exist in other people as well? The short answer is yes. PTSD is a disorder that can affect nearly anyone who has a reaction to some sort of trauma that they experienced or witnessed at any point in their life.

Another reality that people don't talk about is the fact that some people who have been exposed to chronic, unsafe, or frightening situations over and over again may have a condition called Complex PTSD. Complex PTSD is different from PTSD in that the sufferer's cognitive and emotional regulation is disrupted by the trauma and the resulting disorder.

Complex PTSD is most often seen in cases of children who have grown up in households with verbal, emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. For example, an adult child of a toxic or narcissistic parent may be sensitive to bullying behavior due to their parents bullying and controlling them early in their life. This person may grow up to have nightmares or flashbacks of the abuse. They may be extremely emotional and sensitive of criticism from others. They may have trouble with learning and cognition due to the heightened state of stress that their brain was in while growing up. They may have ruminating thoughts that cause them to be on automatic throughout their day, so that they are forgetful and struggle to remember things that are said to them.
