| Examining Human Behavior This month’s selections look at some of the biological and psychological factors that affect human behavior and mood. March’s eBook examines a topic saturating US headlines since early January: the nature of violence, while our other eBook selections look at how to identify and manage anxiety, depression and stress. |
| Criminal Psychology and the Roots of Violence In 2020, mass shootings and hate crimes reached record highs. In this eBook, we examine the factors that contribute to aggressive and brutal behavior, including its biological and genetic underpinnings, how intimacy and bias can lead to violence, how people become radicalized to commit acts of aggression, as well as certain psychological disorders and their role in violent behavior, which is often not as great as people think. |  | | |
| Mind Over Mood: Understanding Anxiety & Depression Anxiety and depression are two of the most common conditions affecting mental health and overall quality of life, but there are tools for managing them. In this eBook, we’ll explore how depression shows up in the brain, different manifestations of depression and anxiety, various talk therapies, technological innovations, lifestyle interventions and more. | | | |
| Stressed Out: Causes, Effects and Keeping Calm Chronic stress makes people sick. The fight-or-flight response activates our bodies to face immediate threats, but that stress system must turn off to allow organs to recover. Constant anxiety keeps the system active, and in this eBook, we examine the effects of ongoing stress and trauma on both body and mind as well as ways to arm ourselves against adversity by managing stress and building resilience. | | | |
