1. 1. Making Sense Of Behavior

   The Meaning of Control

   

   This insightful book delves into the intricacies of human behavior through the lens of Perceptual Control Theory (PCT), offering a fresh perspective on how individuals interact with their environment. It challenges traditional stimulus-response models by proposing that behavior is a means of controlling perceptions rather than merely reacting to external stimuli. By exploring the dynamic interplay between perception, action, and feedback, the book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the self-regulating nature of human actions, emphasizing the importance of internal goals and the continuous adjustment of behavior to achieve desired outcomes.

2. 2. Hamlet's Black Berry

   A Practical Philosophy for Building a Good Life in the Digital Age

   

   A blend of cultural history, personal memoir and practical philosophy that diagnoses how smartphones and always-on communication fragment attention and diminish depth of thought, and that draws on examples from literature, philosophy and the author’s own experiments with unplugging to propose simple, humane practices—scheduled disconnection, attention rituals and boundary-setting—to reclaim focus, richer conversation and a more deliberate life in the digital age.
