A rollicking journey to understand the enduring power of puzzles: why we love them, what they do to our brains, and how they can improve our worldWhat makes puzzles―jigsaws, mazes, riddles, sudokus―so satisfying? Be it the formation of new cerebral pathways, their close link to insight and humor, or their community-building properties, they’re among the fundamental elements that make us human. Convinced that puzzles have made him a better person, A. J. Jacobs―four-time New York Times bestselling author, master of immersion journalism, and nightly crossworder―set out to determine their myriad benefits.

Perfect for readers of Song for a Whale and Counting by 7s, a neurodivergent girl campaigns for a memorial when she learns that her small Scottish town used to burn witches simply because they were different. Ever since Ms. Murphy told us about the witch trials that happened centuries ago right here in Juniper, I can't stop thinking about them. Those people weren't magic. They were like me. Different like me. I'm autistic. I see things that others do not. I hear sounds that they can ignore. And sometimes I feel things all at once. I think about the witches, with no one to speak for them. Not everyone in our small town understands. But if I keep trying, maybe someone will. I won't let the witches be forgotten. Because there is more to their story. Just like there is more to mine. Award-winning and neurodivergent author Elle McNicoll delivers an insightful and stirring debut about the European witch trials and a girl who refuses to relent in the fight for what she knows is right.

The gripping account of the decade-long hunt for the world's most wanted man.It was only a week before 9/11 that Peter Bergen turned in the manuscript of Holy War, Inc., the story of Osama bin Laden--whom Bergen had once interviewed in a mud hut in Afghanistan--and his declaration of war on America. The book became a New York Times bestseller and the essential portrait of the most formidable terrorist enterprise of our time. Now, in Manhunt, Bergen picks up the thread with this taut yet panoramic account of the pursuit and killing of bin Laden. Here are riveting new details of bin Laden's flight after the crushing defeat of the Taliban to Tora Bora, where American forces came startlingly close to capturing him, and of the fugitive leader's attempts to find a secure hiding place. As the only journalist to gain access to bin Laden's Abbottabad compound before the Pakistani government demolished it, Bergen paints a vivid picture of bin Laden's grim, Spartan life in hiding and his struggle

An eye-opening look at the psychology of why we keep the secrets we keep, how to better understand and cope with them, and when (and how) we should bring them to light.Think of a secret that you’re keeping from others. It shouldn’t take long; behavioral scientist Michael Slepian finds that on average, we are keeping as many as thirteen secrets at any given time. His research involving more than 50,000 participants from around the globe shows that the most common secrets include: lies we’ve told, addiction or mental health challenges, a hidden relationship, financial struggles, and more. Our secrets can weigh heavily upon us. Yet the burden of secrecy, Slepian argues, rarely stems from the work it takes to keep a secret hidden. Rather, secrets are something we must “carry” because we do so alone, without the support of others. Whether we are motivated to protect our reputation, a relationship, or a loved one’s feelings, or are pursuing some personal or professional goal, one thing is cl

為什麼喜歡聽悲傷的音樂？這可能跟人類潛藏苦中帶樂的苦甜思維相關。《安靜就是力量》作者透過大量研究，從受訪者及自身真實經歷中探索人們的悲傷與渴望，讓苦甜的力量引領我們走向人際關係更加緊密、更富創造力的人生。The author of the bestselling phenomenon Quiet reveals how embracing a bittersweet mindset may hold the key to true connection and help us transcend a culture that’s more comfortable with enforced happiness.With her mega-bestseller Quiet, Susan Cain urged our society to cultivate space for the undervalued, indispensable introverts among us, thereby revealing an untapped power hidden in plain sight. Now, she employs the same mix of research, storytelling, and memoir to explore the riches that a different outlook has to offer our happiness-focused yet torn-apart culture. Western psychology traditionally regards sorrow and longing as maladaptive at best, pathological at worst. We live in a culture that encourages us to telegraph how happy―or, on the flip side, outraged―we are. As a result, our collective empathy is spiraling downward, and we’re ill-equipped to deal with our personal troub
