Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people fear and mistrust numbers. Others want to use them for everything. After a long career as a statistician, Paul Goodwin has learned the hard way that the ones who want to use them for everything are a very good reason for the rest of us to fear and mistrust them. Something Doesn't Add Up is a fieldguide to the numbers that rule our world, even though they don't make sense. Wry, witty and humane, Goodwin explains mathematical subtleties so painlessly that you hardly need to think about numbers at all. He demonstrates how statistics that are meant to make life simpler often make it simpler than it actually is, but also reveals some of the ways we really can use maths to make better decisions. Enter the world of fitness tracking, the history of IQ testing, China's social credit system, Effective Altruism, and learn how someone should have noticed that Harold Shipman was killing his patients years before they actually did. In the right hands, maths is a useful tool. It's just a pity there are so many of the wrong hands about.

Book excerpt: *Completed Series* When your two thousand, seven hundred year old Vampire sire decides he wants you back, you go crawling, right? Wrong. I'm a thousand years old and I've played that game over and over again. I have my own life and a new love on the horizon. But old habits die hard, even if death isn't easy for the likes of me. Craving the human I've fallen for, along with the easy relationship of my darling charge of five hundred years, I suddenly find myself thrust into the middle of an ancient prophecy that seemingly revolves around me and my sire. There is no getting away from him now and I realize that I don't want to. I want him back as much as he wants me. Can my new love accept these relationships and the life I have to offer him by becoming one of us, or will he run at the first meeting of the vicious man that made me? Either way, I've got more than enough on my plate to handle and learning more about the prophecy and what it involves, brings back old nightmares that have haunted me for centuries but new experiences which I didn't know that I longed for. When the prophecy makes you the Chosen One and you want nothing to do with it. When your love cannot be labelled or defined, and when your love lasts millennia - you know it's gonna be a rollercoaster of a ride, you know it's Forever. This is my story. Expect trouble...it's my middle name.

Book excerpt: Are you in a relationship or dynamic with a person that can be best described as an emotional rollercoaster, toxic, draining, crazy-making, or confusing? Have you wondered why they never seem to change--no matter how much you are willing to do for them, or how much love, understanding, rehab, religion, therapy, second (or twenty-second) chances you've given them? Do you feel as though if you tried harder that eventually you could earn their love, respect, loyalty, honesty, or be treated with dignity and respect? If so, you are not alone and this book is a great place to start. This book covers: - The most common words and definitions (along with examples) surrounding narcissists, sociopaths, and narcissistic abuse, such as "flying monkeys," "hoovering," "narcissistic abuse," "love bombing," "trauma bonding," "C-PTSD," "scapegoat," and "reactive abuse," as well as dozens of additional helpful words and concepts. - Understanding the cycle of narcissistic abuse (and what is really looks like in motion). - The different ways that emotional manipulators go about exploiting your vulnerabilities. - Frequently asked questions about narcissistic abuse. - Elements to consider if you are planning to leave so you can do it as safely as possible. - What to anticipate after breaking up with a narcissist, sociopath, psychopath, or any other type of emotional manipulator. - How to find a support group and privacy concerns to consider when joining one. - A section for friends and family for how to help support a loved one who is in a narcissistically abusive relationship or dynamic. And much, much more.
