Parents are tired of struggling with their child at mealtimes. It's a familiar scene: Parent offers a spoon, loaded with nutritious food; Baby turns their head away and starts crying. Enter responsive feeding.

When something good happens to us, we're really happy, and when something bad happens we're really unhappy. But what impact does the good or bad event have on our happiness a month later? Research shows: absolutely none. That's because happiness isn't dependent on the present moment - we all have ups and we all have downs - rather, it's the baseline hovering between the highs and lows, which is ever-changing. In Happier No Matter What, positive psychologist Tal Ben-Shahar argues that we can improve our baseline happiness, and better equip ourselves to cope with extremes.Happier No Matter What is at once a diagnostic tool, helping readers to identify the fundamental elements of happiness in their own lives, as well as a prescription, providing evidence-based methods for seeking out and making the most of those crucial components. As Ben-Shahar reveals here, our happiness is a matter of five essential components: Spiritual, Physical, Intellectual, Relational, and Emotional (SPIRE) well-being. Ben-Shahar tackles the issue of modern happiness from every angle, arming us with strategies to manage our emotions, care for our bodies, nurture our relationships, stay intellectually curious, and live mindfully - even when it feels like everything has gone wrong.As it turns out, waking up every day and thinking "I want to be happy" has been shown to decrease happiness levels. Instead, what really works is setting tangible goals that are proven to lead to that elusive feeling of joy. No matter how uncertain life gets, Happier No Matter What will help us find stable ground.

An epic and fun history spanning from the mollusks that invented swimming to the octopuses and other intelligent cephalopods of today Publisher's Note: Monarchs of the Sea was previously published in hardcover as Squid Empire. Before mammals, there were dinosaurs. And before dinosaurs, there were cephalopods--the ancestors of modern squid, octopuses, and more creatures--Earth's first truly substantial animals. Essentially inventing the act of swimming, cephalopods presided over an undersea empire for millions of years--until fish evolved jaws, and cephalopods had to step up their game or risk being eaten. To keep up, some streamlined their shells and added defensive spines, while others abandoned the shell, opening the gates to a flood of evolutionary innovations: masterful camouflage, fin-supplemented jet propulsion, and intelligence we've yet to fully measure. Monarchs of the Sea is an epic, witty history about these bizarre but beautiful creatures that ruled the seas--and still captivate us today.

In this laugh-out-loud collection of witty observations from a world that’s falling apart, Eli Grober leads readers into a comical house of horrors. With more than 75 new pieces and many of Grober’s most viral New Yorker and McSweeney’s humour essays, This Won’t Help exposes society’s precarious landscape of hypocritical, illogical, and dangerous leaders and ideals. Finding absurdity and toxic rhetoric everywhere he turns, Grober depicts how damaging certain mindsets and people can be as well as the dire consequences of our letting them persist. Satirising issues of politics, economy, technology, climate change denial, and more, Grober’s biting, Swiftian wit spares no one - from the megalomaniacal billionaire abandoning our deteriorating Earth for a better life on an unlivable Mars to a clueless president begging the people to vote for change. This Won’t Help allows us to reflect upon our crazy world, laugh at its flaws, and recognise the ways we can seek truth, eschew absurdity, and call for change.

With menopause, almost overnight, nothing about your body is the same. Where eating less and exercising more once allowed you to slim down, it now produces little to no results. In this book, Pahla Bowers offers a powerful new method to flip the script on menopause by adjusting how you think. Using a highly practical approach that targets really unhelpful thoughts (RUTs), she teaches readers how to lose weight and love their midlife body by: transforming their thinking about food—and not fearing calories and carbs; practicing moderate exercise, staying hydrated, and getting plenty of sleep; choosing a realistic weight goal; and never slowing down Mind Over Menopause gives women the tools they need to improve their health while eating more, exercising less, and turning good feelings into actions. With chapters that include journaling prompts and “Borrow This Thought” ideas, Bowers shows how to use the mind like a compass to steer the body in the direction it wants to go. And in the process, she proves that aging can be a positive change.

Inspirational stories of how individuals overcome deep-seated prejudice that teach us to do the same — offering hope that society at large can heal. Much has been written about our polarized media, social bubbles, and intractable biases. Award-winning journalist Bastian Berbner circled the world to find a different narrative. In Search of Common Ground is his profound collection of true stories that prove it is possible to mend even our fiercest divides. In Arizona, a former neo-Nazi befriends his Black parole officer. In Germany, an older couple dread the arrival of their new Roma neighbors — but are moved upon meeting them to offer help and become strong supporters. In Ireland, we see one friendship change the world when a gay-rights activist overturns a conservative mailman’s homophobia — and together, they help sway public opinion to legalize gay marriage. Other gap-bridging stories include: young Democrats and Republicans (United States), a Danish policeman and a Muslim boy in danger of radicalization (Denmark), a neo-Nazi and a Palestinian prisoner (Germany). With added historic and sociological research, Berbner gets to the root of what pushes people apart, and shows that we can dissolve divisions by simply meeting face to face. This is essential, uplifting reading for everyone who aspires to live without hate.
