The Great Dimming

   Book Cover two faces facing each other


The Great Dimming


 "The Great Dimming: The Modern IQ Decline" investigates a paradox that would have seemed unthinkable just decades ago: even as technology advances at breakneck speed, our collective cognitive capabilities appear to be deteriorating.

Through compelling research and analysis, the book reveals how IQ scores that rose steadily throughout the 20th century (the Flynn Effect) have now reversed in developed nations. Core cognitive capabilities like abstract reasoning, working memory, and critical thinking are declining at measurable rates, with profound implications for society's future. Unlike simplistic explanations blaming technology alone, "The Great Dimming" presents a multifaceted analysis of interlocking factors driving this trend. From environmental toxins altering neural development to the attention-fragmenting effects of digital media, from educational systems failing to develop deep thinking to lifestyle changes disrupting sleep and physical activity—each contributes to a perfect storm of cognitive challenges. Beyond identifying problems, the book presents evidence-based solutions at every level. For individuals, it offers a practical toolkit of interventions ranked by effectiveness, from cardiovascular exercise that boosts cognitive function by 15-20% to digital wellness practices that enhance focus by 40%. For communities and policymakers, it showcases successful case studies like Singapore's "Smart Environment" program and Vermont's comprehensive cognitive health initiative, demonstrating real-world models for intervention. What sets "The Great Dimming" apart is its balance of rigorous science, accessible explanations, and practical optimism. While unflinching in its assessment of alarming trends, it also reveals our remarkable neuroplasticity and potential for recovery. The book makes a compelling case that addressing the Great Dimming represents our most crucial challenge—not just for intellectual progress, but for solving existential threats like climate change and social polarization. By protecting and enhancing our cognitive capabilities, we don't just preserve human intelligence; we create the conditions for a new flowering of human potential.

Lucky Enough


Becky ("Becks") has always felt like she was on the outside looking in. As she starts high school, she hopes for a fresh start-one where she isn't invisible, where she belongs, and maybe even where her longtime crush, Nate, finally notices her. But high school isn't as simple as she hoped. Struggling with self-confidence, social pressures, and the fear of standing out for the wrong reasons, Becks finds herself caught between wanting to stay under the radar and dreaming of something bigger.

Her best friend, Trina, is everything Becks wishes she could be-fearless, talented, and ready to take on the world. Trina is determined to make the school's highly competitive dance team, and Becks decides to take the leap with her, even though she isn't sure she has what it takes. As auditions approach, the two girls push each other to be their best while navigating friendship struggles, the pressures of high school, and the sting of first heartbreak. Everything changes when Becks' beloved grandfather gives her a four-leaf clover necklace, claiming it will bring her luck. Suddenly, things start to shift-small coincidences, unexpected opportunities, and moments of courage she never thought she had. Could the necklace really be magical, or is Becks finally stepping into the person she was always meant to be? As she faces setbacks, triumphs, and moments of self-discovery, Becks begins to realize that luck might give her a push, but true confidence comes from within. Filled with heartwarming friendships, the excitement of young love, and the struggles of finding one's voice, Lucky Enough is a coming-of-age novel about believing in yourself, embracing change, and taking a chance on the life you truly want. Perfect for fans of contemporary young adult fiction, high school drama, and inspiring stories of self-confidence and resilience.

About the Author: Wayne Cripps is an Australian author and fourth-generation commercial fisher, born in 1959 in the quaint country town of Toora, Victoria. His family's fishing roots trace back to the 1864 move from Tooradin to the town of Bowen, where they settled after arriving from Cornwall, UK, during the early days of Australian colonization. Growing up in the picturesque fishing village of Port Franklin, Wayne's childhood was marked by the charm of a small community, with a population of only 160 residents. His education began at the local primary school, which catered to a modest group of 14 children. Later, he attended the Leongatha Tec School, where he spent three transformative years of his life. After completing his schooling, Wayne pursued his passion for fishing and worked alongside his father in bay fishing before venturing into the Bass Strait deep-sea shark gill net fishery.

My Three Sons: How God Separated Man, After Man (Through Satan) Separated Himself from God

 Book Cover Cross & Dove



A bold, eye-opening journey from Noah’s sons to mankind’s salvation—discover the truth that unites us all.

What if the divisions we see in the world today—between races, nations, and belief systems—can all be traced back to three men in ancient Scripture? In My Three Sons: How God Separated Man, After Man (Through Satan) Separated Himself from God, Gabriel Obed David unpacks a revelation that’s as provocative as it is powerful: the legacies of Shem, Ham, and Japheth—Noah’s sons—have not only shaped history but continue to define the spiritual destinies of mankind.

Spanning a deeply engaging and well-developed narrative filled with rich theology, biblical history, and prophetic insight, the author delivers a profound message for our fractured world. This isn’t just a story of ancestry or religion—it’s a deeply personal exploration of identity, purpose, and the urgent need for reconciliation with our Creator. With every chapter, My Three Sons uncovers how humanity has drifted from divine truth and how false doctrines, cultural pride, and man-made traditions have veiled the one path that leads us back.

From Eden’s shadow to Calvary’s light, this book traces the soul’s path back to God’s eternal embrace.

—Greg P.

Through gripping commentary and deep scriptural analysis, Gabriel Obed David challenges readers to examine the spiritual inheritance they carry. He paints a sobering picture of a world intoxicated by self-made religions and empty rituals—and then reveals something far more powerful: the unifying truth found only in Jesus Christ.

My Three Sons doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths. It confronts idolatry, disobedience, and spiritual decay with conviction—offering not condemnation, but a call to awakening. This is a passionate plea to break through the noise of division and rediscover that all humanity was meant to be one family, under one God, walking one path.

This is not a light read—but it’s one that may forever change how you see yourself, your faith, and your future. It’s for the truth-seekers, the spiritually hungry, and those who sense that the world’s answers no longer satisfy.

Let the truth of Scripture guide your steps—My Three Sons is more than a book; it’s a wake-up call for the soul.

Love First, Dear Love

  Book with just words on the cover.


Love First, Dear Love 


She was studying at Oxford and was called immediately by her longing and loving boyfriend, not to inherit, but to save his political party and political agenda. He knows she will not refuse, as it is not just first love, love that transcends, and she is the shadow of the family that runs the national opposition. Adi knows Sia would abandon her family, father, and herself to rescue him any day, as the bond is from their young and impressionable days as intertwined souls. Sia knows she would love to show the world that true love saves the world—and him as her source.

The timing seems predestined; her father and godfather now approve of their union, believing their love could win hearts worldwide.

Yet beneath this reunion lies revelation—a carefully concealed scheme to manipulate elections, where hearts and minds were influenced without digital traces and with digital traces now. Adi and Sia, formidable in will and wit, possess the power to elevate or devastate nations alongside ruthless yet gentle figure X, fixing the democratic general elections of half the world's population to define one source: labor and family capitalists in modern democracy.

On the journey, she remembers the sweetness, warmth, innocence of the tender love, and now such intense love to show the world it can burn the world, plague the world for people against them. It is beyond human definition, as love defies space and space defies human thinking.

This power couple faces crucial questions: Love as evidence of lawful wed, or wed as source love? Would she accept his unwavering devotion and embrace love, or would she distract him to others for othered? Would he man up to accept her idiosyncrasies?

Where the Light Finds Us

 Book Cover Man and Women on Beach





Elizabeth Ellison has never had the luxury of being seen. Not truly. Not in a world that taught her to survive by staying small, quiet, invisible. But when a guarded stranger steps into her orbit, everything begins to shift—not with grand gestures, but with the steady, unshakable presence of someone who refuses to look away.
As two lives shaped by loss begin to intertwine, Elizabeth discovers that healing doesn’t come from being rescued—it comes from being believed in. And love, the kind that endures, doesn’t arrive to save you. It stands beside you, unwavering, while you learn to save yourself.
Set against the backdrop of coastal towns and quiet nights, Where the Light Finds Us is a deeply emotional story of resilience, healing, and the families we choose. It’s about finding hope in the unlikeliest places, and learning that sometimes, the light we’re searching for has been with us all along.

Unearthed:

The Lies We Carry & The Truths They Bury



"Unearthed: The Lies We Carry & The Truths They Bury" by Chanchal Garg

Published June 2, 2025 | 5.0 out of 5 stars Chanchal Garg’s "Unearthed: The Lies We Carry & The Truths They Bury" is a powerful and unflinching memoir that confronts spiritual abuse, cultural expectations, and the long, complex process of personal reclamation. With deft and lyrical prose, Garg tells the story of how a moment of unexpected insight during a yoga class—while pregnant with her daughter—forced her to reckon with the silence, shame, and subjugation she had carried for much of her life. Raised as a devoted Indian daughter within a tightly woven cultural and religious community, Garg was taught to never question authority. Her account reveals how those beliefs were weaponized to mask sexual misconduct and spiritual manipulation, and how systems of power—from family to faith—can enable abuse while demanding loyalty. The memoir explores what it means to be bicultural and to question the very structures that shaped one’s identity. What sets "Unearthed" apart is not only its deeply personal narrative, but also its broader relevance. Garg’s story speaks directly to women of color who have been silenced within communities that ask for their sacrifice but not their voice. Her experience is recounted with emotional clarity and intellectual rigor, illuminating how generational trauma, cult dynamics, and misplaced devotion can coexist with love, duty, and tradition. This is a feminist memoir that challenges readers to reconsider the boundaries of faith, family, and cultural belonging. Garg’s journey from trauma to self-trust is not framed as a neat transformation, but rather as a process of spiritual survival and hard-won healing. "Unearthed" offers rare insight into the internal conflicts faced by many survivors of abuse within spiritual or cultural systems—and the courage required to break free. A standout debut, this memoir is essential reading for those drawn to stories of healing from sexual abuse, challenging inherited roles, and redefining power on one’s own terms. Garg’s work sits firmly within the growing canon of memoirs by South Asian American women that center truth-telling and liberation. Through "Unearthed," she emerges not only as a survivor, but as a sharp and necessary new voice in literature.
