Power to the Parasites lets you in on a secret: Parasites are all around you, all the time, quietly running the world. You might think of them as slimy, disgusting freeloaders - tapeworms and roundworms and ticks and lice, too small to be important and too selfish to be valued. But by the end of this book, you'll realize that sometimes parasites are the good guys. Learn where you're most likely to find parasites in your own food (heads up, you might not want to eat any uncooked fish right before reading this book), and how parasitic infection changes the behavior of many organisms--including human beings. Parasites might be weird and mysterious, but the better we understand them, the less we have to fear about them. In fact, many parasites are in big trouble. With climate change threatening parasites around the world, there's no better time than right now to learn about these often-unseen creatures living among us.
Mother Brain: How Neuroscience Is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood
Chelsea Conaboy

Health and science journalist Chelsea Conaboy explodes the concept of "maternal instinct" and tells a new story about what it means to become a parent. Conaboy expected things to change with the birth of her child. What she didn't expect was how different she would feel. But she would soon discover what was behind this: her changing brain. Though Conaboy was prepared for the endless dirty diapers, the sleepless nights, and the joy of holding her newborn, she did not anticipate this shift in self, as deep as it was disorienting. Mother Brain is a groundbreaking exploration of the parental brain that untangles insidious myths from complicated realities. New parents undergo major structural and functional brain changes, driven by hormones and the deluge of stimuli a baby provides. These neurobiological changes help all parents--birthing or otherwise--adapt in those intense first days and prepare for a long period of learning how to meet their child's needs. Pregnancy produces such significant changes in brain anatomy that researchers can easily sort those who have had one from those who haven't. And all highly involved parents, no matter their path to parenthood, develop similar caregiving circuitry. Yet this emerging science, which provides key insights into the wide-ranging experience of parenthood, from its larger role in shaping human nature to the intensity of our individual emotions, is mostly absent from the public conversation about parenthood. The story that exists in the science today is far more meaningful than the idea that mothers spring into being by instinct. Weaving the latest neuroscience and social psychology together with new reporting, Conaboy reveals unexpected upsides, generations of scientific neglect, and a powerful new narrative of parenthood.
Criminal profiler Chelsea Hoffman takes readers on a tour of the macabre with a collection of profiles of the most horrifying cases of sexual sadism in true crime history. From Ariel Castro to Robert Rhoades (and many more), the cases of these sexual sadists shed light on the behavioral and psychological manifestation of this potentially dangerous paraphilic disorder. "Sins of the Sexual Sadist" is a journey into the darkest realms of humanity that introduces the reader to the gruesome reality of sexual sadism and its many faces. Sexual perversion, mental illness and behavioral dysfunction mingle to form a gripping compilation of criminal human suffering and unthinkable evil.....
The poem The Besotted Daemons ends with the line, "...And I knew where they lived and how to get there. A tiny boat alone at night. Holes made by rabbits. A doorway drawn from chalk." An ode to three of Bayouth's favorite stories. The collection of poems is itself, transportive. Taking the reader through the land of her own creation, of doors and heart holes, beaus and Eros. A shimmering, painful glimpse of love and loss and a map of the dark underbelly which is the female psyche. Beau's & Eros isn't just a book of poetry, it is a portrait of another world.
This is my very first self published book and it is far from perfect. This process has been going on for a year and I believe it is complete. I know there may be some grammatical errors along with fragments, but it is truly a work in progress.

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER“I could not put this book down. It’s so funny” –Ru Paul“I LOVE this book for its honesty and dark (and light!) comedy” –Rachel Dratch (Instagram)"It’s f*cking great!!! Raw, intimate, hilarious, actually inspiring.” –Jon StewartA RECOMMENDED READ FROM: NPR * PUREWOW * USWEEKLY * PEOPLE * BUSTLE * SHEREADS * NYLON * BOOKRIOT * AND MOREThe dynamic memoir-in-essays by comedian, screenwriter, and podcaster Chelsea Devantez, detailing her tumultuous upbringing and uproarious career path into Hollywood.There are things Chelsea Devantez probably shouldn’t be telling you. Many of them are in this book: some are embarrassing (like when she tried to break her three year spell of celibacy using a guide of seduction tips). Some are confessional (getting sentenced to the “hell hill” at Mormon church camp). Some are TMI (a series of outrageous doctor visits that ended with one doctor misdiagnosing her as “pregnant.” Woopsies!).Then there are things Chelsea really shouldn’t be telling you: like the time her biggest family secret was publicly outed, or about the drive-by shootings and the precipitating domestic violence she survived. Yet through it all, it’s the women in Chelsea’s life who kept her going – from the lowest points of her childhood when she and her mom had only $100 left to their name, all the way to her career highs as the Emmy-nominated Head Writer for The Problem with Jon Stewart and sensational podcaster deemed “the celebrity memoir whisperer” by her fans. In I Shouldn't Be Telling You This, Chelsea centers each story around a different woman who shaped her life, taking us on a tour of friends and strangers, fictional characters and celebrities, heroes and villains who will destroy any Netflix algorithm for a “strong female lead.” Reading it will feel kinda like that moment at a party when your friend beckons you close, sloshes her martini around, and covertly whispers, “I really shouldn’t say this, but…”
Waking up. Remembering. Grieving. Setting out on an adventure. If you have joined me in any of these very human pursuits, this collection will speak to you. May it wrap you in magic and strengthen your persistence. I look forward to meeting you somewhere on the road.
This book is for women's inspiration. It is filled with poetry, scripture and reflective thoughts on issues that effect women's lives and cause them to lose their inner voice and strength, along with ways that they can reclaim that voice and strength. My hope is that you are inspired to stand, to speak and to pass an encouraging word on to a friend or sister that needs it. Take on yourself and take on life. We only get one.
