A pioneering researcher gives us a new understanding of stress and trauma, as well as the tools to heal and thrive. We usually think of stress and trauma as separate conditions, but they actually share a neurobiological basis. This groundbreaking book not only lays out how and why we tend to disown trauma, it explains the science of how to direct our attention to widen our windows of resilience, perform under stress, and recover from traumatic experiences. Stress is our internal response to an experience that the survival brain perceives as threatening or challenging. Trauma is our response to an experience in which we feel powerless or lacking control. Until now, researchers have treated these conditions as different, but they actually lie along a continuum. Dr. Elizabeth Stanley explains why an event that's stressful for one person can be traumatizing for another. With training, however, we can access agency, even in extreme-stress environments. In fact, anything conditioned through stress or trauma can, with intentionality and agency, be reconditioned and healed. The key is to use strategies that access not just the thinking brain but also the survival brain. With stories from the women and men she has trained, as well as her own striking experiences with stress and trauma, Dr. Stanley gives us hands-on strategies we can use ourselves, whether we want to perform under pressure or heal from traumatic experience, while at the same time pointing our understanding in a new direction.Binding Type: Hardcover

Long Halloween Prequel
Format: Paperback
We can see here the first try of what would become a legendary duo for Batman, and it's a very decent one. These 3 stories are inspired by 3 different themes: Fear, Madness, and Ghosts. Personally, Madness was the best one; I've always found the Mad Hatter e very curious villain in this world and the tie-in to Bruce's childhood is a nice feat. The Ghosts story feels very rushed once the second spirit visits (Joker), so it lacks depth in the analysis it's trying to do emulating 'A Christmas Carol'.

Just Classic Batman!
Format: Kindle
I don't think I have read these tales in about 20 years. I miss Jeph Loeb on Batman. While I think he put a great spin on Superman, Loeb set the foundation for all of the visual medium for Batman. This collection of three one-shots gives us good Scarecrow and Mad Hatter Halloween stories. My favorite was the final story with a retelling of A Christmas Carol but Halloween and Batman.

A few twists
Format: Paperback
These stories are well written and have a unique take on several beloved characters… I completely recommend this for some light reading in between some of the more intense story’s.
