The Jon Boat Years by Jim Mize 

Delightful tales of hunting and fishing, family, friends, dogs, and precious time well spent.

Black-and-white drawings from artist Bob White illustrate stories filled with laughter, quiet contemplation, and wonder 

Fatal Jump by Leslie Reperant 

"Fatal Jump" explores how animal pathogens jump to humans, causing pandemics. Most jumps fail, but rare successes lead to devastating diseases. The book examines pathogens from various animals, including rats, bats, and mosquitoes, and their impact. Dr. Leslie Reperant investigates how factors like environmental change and population dynamics fuel pandemics. She discusses mysteries like monkeypox's spread and COVID-19's impact on measles control. The book emphasizes understanding the global connections between human and environmental health. Ultimately, "Fatal Jump" urges a shift from a human-centric view to a holistic understanding of disease emergence. 

Selling From Your Comfort Zone by Stacey Hall 

This book challenges the notion that successful sales require compromising personal values. It proposes a "comfort zone" approach, emphasizing authentic connection and problem-solving over pushy tactics. Stacey Hall introduces the Alignment Marketing formula, blending traditional sales skills with relationship-building techniques. This method encourages alignment with personal values, the product, and the prospect, fostering confidence and energy. It acknowledges gender-based sales differences, integrating both male-driven results and female-driven connection. By gently expanding comfort zone boundaries, salespeople can navigate challenges with resilience. This approach aims to bring meaning to the sales role, leading to satisfaction and success. Ultimately, the book demonstrates that genuine connection and alignment are key to achieving stellar sales. 

Social Processes of Online Hate by Joseph B. Walther and Ronald E. Rice 

This book analyzes how online social dynamics drive the expression and spread of hate. International experts examine diverse forms of online hate—including abuse, antisemitism, and radicalization—to reveal the social factors and platform features that enable them. It offers novel approaches for understanding these phenomena and is essential reading for researchers in sociology, criminology, media studies, and related fields.
