NurtureShock: New Thinking about ChildrenIn a world of modern, involved, caring parents, why are so many kids aggressive and cruel? Where is intelligence hidden in the brain, and why does that matter? Why do cross racial friendships decrease in schools that are more integrated? If 98% of kids think lying is morally wrong, then why do 98% of kids lie? What's the single most important thing that helps infants learn language? NurtureShock is a groundbreaking collaboration between award winning
In a world of modern, involved, caring parents, why are so many kids aggressive and cruel? Where is intelligence hidden in the brain, and why does that matter? Why do cross-racial friendships decrease in schools that are more integrated? If 98% of kids think lying is morally wrong, then why do 98% of kids lie? What's the single most important thing that helps infants learn language?NurtureShock is a groundbreaking collaboration between award-winning science journalists Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman. They argue that when it comes to children, we've mistaken good intentions for good ideas. With impeccable storytelling and razor-sharp analysis, they demonstrate that many of modern society's strategies for nurturing children are in fact backfiring--because key twists in the science have been overlooked.
Nothing like a parenting manual, the authors' work is an insightful exploration of themes and issues that transcend children's (and adults') lives.

Crime Syndicate is an addictive pleasure!
Format: Kindle
Alternate realities have always been my favorite science fiction staple, and Crime Syndicate is no ption. My favorite character is Atomica because of how easily she gets things done when everyone else overlooks her. I'll definitely read more stories from writer Andy Schmidt.

I really wanted to be hopeful about this.
Format: Kindle
First off, I’ve been a DC multiverse fan for a very long time. And the concept of Earth-3 was always a fun idea. I enjoyed so many of the characters over the years. This had so much potential. But some of the designs are so clunky, and there’s nowhere near as much characterization as their predecessors had. Power Ring is the only one that feels an improvement. But the rest just didn’t thrill me (Atomica being one of the few that wasn’t tedious).
I know the writers always just can’t help themselves and have to rewrite the origins again and again. But the story could have been so much better.

Earth 3
Format: Paperback
I really enjoyed this reboot of the Crime Syndicate. It manages to feel new while still staying true to the existing stories. Never read anything by either creator, but I loved it. This should be an ongoing series.
