Chutzpah Nation is an inspirational call to action by a senior U.S. politician, describing how Americans of all age groups, persuasions, and occupations can defy convention, chart new pathways for their communities, schools, at work and in life.US Senator Ron Wyden is widely praised for coming up with sensible-sounding ideas no one else had thought of and making the counter-intuitive political alliances that prove helpful in passing bills. In Chutzpah Nation, he offers a progressive leader's manifesto for being a courageous warrior during turbulent times. It is an inspirational guide to get important things accomplished with a combination of strong allies, persistence, and attention-that is, chutzpah. "Chutzpah" is a Yiddish word that describes a trait that many Jews consider in-born. Ron explores chutzpah's long history and many interpretations and reclaims the word chutzpah for a new American generation, showing how it can be used for good to reclaim idealism and enact positive change. He shares "Ron's 12 Rules of Chutzpah" that enable any individual or group to achieve their objectives:1. If you want to make change, you've got to make noise.2. In a world where everyone thinks and acts for the short-term, always play the long game.3. Leading is coaching: Whether in legislation or in life, you've got to bring people and ideas together around a shared goal.4. Show up every day prepared to play.5. There are only two paths you can take to progress: Start good things and stop bad things. Do both.6. Embrace the unscripted moments.7. Ideas are the seeds of change; find them and plant them wherever and whenever you can.8. Pay attention to your friends, because they can be far more unpredictable than your enemies.9. Don't push rocks up hills. Push boulders. They will fall back on you, but you'll gain the strength to get to the top.10. Be a principled bipartisan: Work with anybody who is serious about moving forward.11. Political capital doesn't earn interest and is worth nothing if you don't spend it.12. "Compromise" isn't about horse-trading bad ideas for each other; it's about blending good ideas into a whole that's better than the sum of its parts.Ron identifies several key values-free speech, health care, reproductive rights, a clean environment, and reigning in Big Tech-and draws on his decades of public service to stress that preserving those values means that loud brashness and boldness will be needed now more than ever.

Neuroscientist Amir Raz shares decades of research and case studies to show how suggestion changes the brain and shapes our behavior-and how we can protect ourselves from and harness suggestibility in our own lives.Suggestions can make cheap wine taste like Château Margaux, warp our perception of time, and alter our memories-and in an age where disinformation has impacted our personal lives and our politics, the power of suggestion is worth even more attention.In The Suggestible Brain, world-renowned expert on the science of suggestion Amir Raz, PhD, brings together cognitive aspects of psychology, sociology, and anthropology with issues in our contemporary culture, media, alongside a series of case studies of patients with disorders ranging from Tourette's Syndrome to false pregnancies, lactose intolerance, and asthma to show exactly how suggestions can cut deep into our brains, shake our fundamental knowledge, and override our core human values. Some questions include: - Why do placebos work even when people know they are inactive pills-and why do red pills cause stress whereas blue pills feel calm?- Can suggestions effectively treat depression and anxiety? - How do people weaponize suggestion in the form of gaslighting and mental abuse?- Why are we more likely to believe fake news that already aligns with our political beliefs?- How can suggestions help fight racism, hatred, and bigotry? Conversely, how can suggestions backfire and create the opposite effect? Merging Dr. Raz's experiences as a magician and hypnotist with decades' worth of his own neuropsychological research, The Suggestible Brain maps the twilight zone where magic and science coalesce, and shows how easily suggestible and manipulable we all are. Readers will walk away with actionable advice on how to harness the science of suggestion to propel change, protect against manipulative misinformation, and better regulate our internal, mental universe."Professor Amir Raz is a consummate scientist and former professional magician. His scientific research and writing have made substantial contributions to our understanding of hypnosis, placebo effects, and suggestion. His book will amaze and entertain you, while at the same time being firmly rooted in the scientific data. It is a magical book."--Irving Kirsch, PhD, author of The Emperor's New Drugs: Exploding the Antidepressant Myth"[This book] could have been titled This is Your Brain on Magic. Told from the twin perspectives of a world-renowned cognitive neuroscientist who happens to be a professional magician, you'll never again think about what you see, hear, and experience the same way."-Daniel Levitan, author of This is Your Brain on Music

"Disabled people date, have casual sex, marry, and parent. Yet, our romantic lives of are conspicuously absent from the media and cultural conversation. Sexual education does not typically address the specific information needed by disabled teens. Mainstream dating apps fail to include disability as an aspect of one's identity alongside race, ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual orientation. The few underutilized disability-focused apps are paternalistic and unappealing. Bestselling dating books do not address disability, and the few relationship books marketed to disabled people focus on the mechanics of sex rather than the complex interactions that create the conditions for it. In Dateable, disabled author and essayist Jessica Slice and disabled bioethicist and progressive faith leader Caroline Cupp team up to address the serious gap in the dating space. A dating guide made especially for disabled and chronically ill people, that calls in able bodied readers, Dateable is the first book on disabled dating and relationships. Slice and Cupp take on everything from Rom Com representation to dating apps to sex and breakups with a strong narrative underpinning and practical advice. The book is as much a practical tool as it is an empowering guide"--
