Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

From the founder of the Climate Outreach and Information Network, a
groundbreaking take on the most urgent question of our time: Why,
despite overwhelming scientific evidence, do we still ignore
climate change? "Please read this book, and think about it." --Bill
Nye Most of us recognize that climate change is real yet we do
nothing to stop it. What is the psychological mechanism that allows
us to know something is true but act as if it is not? George
Marshall's search for the answers brings him face to face with
Nobel Prize-winning psychologists and Texas Tea Party activists;
the world's leading climate scientists and those who denounce them;
liberal environmentalists and conservative evangelicals. What he
discovers is that our values, assumptions, and prejudices can take
on lives of their own, gaining authority as they are shared,
dividing people in their wake. With engaging stories and drawing on
years of his own research, Marshall argues that the answers do not
lie in the things that make us different, but rather in what we
share: how our human brains are wired--our evolutionary origins,
our perceptions of threats, our cognitive blind spots, our love of
storytelling, our fear of death, and our deepest instincts to
defend our family and tribe. Once we understand what excites,
threatens, and motivates us, we can rethink climate change, for it
is not an impossible problem. Rather, we can halt it if we make it
our common purpose and common ground. In the end, Don't Even Think
About It is both about climate change and about the qualities that
make us human and how we can deal with the greatest challenge we
have ever faced.
Those familiar with the work of Thich Nhat Hanh appreciate how
living in the present moment can allow the amazing potential of the
human mind to unfold. Inside your mind is a storehouse of absolute
clarity, stillness and peace. It has always been there, and always
will be. It is with you, now - waiting for you to discover it.
Freedom from stress and anxiety. The source of true happiness and
fulfilment. Most of us have congested minds and freeing up mental
space allows our thinking processes to be clearer and increasingly
creative. Much more than that, we can discover a "supercharged
state of consciousness" - the start of realising our full potential
as human beings. Applying the universal law of cause and effect, it
is possible to change our lives and embark on the most important
journey we will ever make - self-discovery. Simple mental
techniques can increase our energy and mental clarity. And by
gaining a much greater understanding of ourselves, and everything
and everyone around us, life's experience is deepened and enriched.
Self-esteem improves. Discover secrets of successful meditation, a
valuable aid in finding inner serenity, and how to avoid the
pitfalls that can beset both beginners and even the more
experienced in meditation. Being busy is part of our modern world
but it so easily leads to imbalance, which can impact on our health
and well-being. Avoiding activity is not the answer. Mere
relaxation by itself is not enough. The Art of Not Doing provides
the means to balance both inner and outer life.This is not a
temporary fix but an answer to achieving a clear mind and
increasing fulfilment - for good.
