Author(s) and Guest(s)
Lisa McCourt
Lisa McCourt has sold more than 5.5 million books teaching kids and adults to embrace unconditional love. Now she has distilled the essence of leading a joy-filled life in her new book Juicy Joy – 7 Simple Steps to Your Glorious, Gutsy Self (Hay House, $15.95), in which she offers a streamlined path to radical authenticity and the ability to flat-out adore that precious, imperfectly perfect you. McCourt has turned a lifelong passion for personal development into a crusade. She has published over three dozen books that have been translated into 11 languages.
Susan M. Schneider
Biopsychologist Susan M. Schneider explores the science behind the adage actions have consequences, in The Science of Consequences: How They Affect Genes, Change the Brain, and Impact Our World (Prometheus, $21.00). Despite their variety, consequences appear to follow a common set of scientific principles and share some similar effects in the brain. Schneider draws together research lines from many fields to tell the story of how something so deceptively simple can help make sense of so much.
