THE HUMAN LIE DETECTOR’S TIPS FOR LOVE & DATING:
Facial Expressions and Body Language in Flirtation, Desire, and Lasting Love
by Annie Särnblad
Harper Influence, August 2027

What if you could tell just by looking at someone that they were attracted to you? That they genuinely wanted to get to know you better? Or, if they’re someone you should absolutely stay away from? With THE HUMAN LIE DETECTOR’S TIPS FOR LOVE & DATING, you can do just that and more.

Meet viral expert Annie Särnblad, also known as The Human Lie detector, who cracks the code to dating in the modern age by teaching readers about the universal, non-verbal language of love: microexpressions. These biological, hardwired facial expressions subconsciously reveal our true emotions, whether we necessarily want them to or not. Every crinkle around the eye, slight curl of the lip is telling you something about the thoughts racing through someone’s head. You just might not be aware of it…yet.

In this comprehensive, groundbreaking book, Särnblad applies the science behind microexpressions to love and dating in her signature conversational, approachable style. Drawing on the colorful, sometimes hilarious dating stories from her own life, as well as those of her clients and students, Särnblad breaks down how to recognize the facial expressions and body language that indicate a loving partner, as well as those that indicate selfish, unkind, or even dangerous intent. From spotting narcissism to catching red flags early, you’ll gain the tools to prioritize personal safety and steer clear of toxic relationships.

Learn to recognize: Attraction, Pleasure, Vulnerability, Empathy

While at the same time detecting: Volatility, Anger, Disgust, Contempt

Alongside original research and real-life stories, Särnblad includes illustrations of these facial expressions throughout, as well as quizzes and observational checklists to guide you on you quest for lasting love.

Once you can read facial expressions, you’ll find that every face-to-face interaction provides feedback and is an opportunity to achieve deeper understanding and connection. And with THE HUMAN LIE DETECTOR’S TIPS FOR LOVE & DATING, you’ll be empowered with the tools to make the right choices in love and dating, becoming your very own human lie detector. And flirtation radar. And love-bomb squad. All in one.

STOP CHASING PAIN de Perry Nickelston

For anyone sick and tired of being sick and tired: A leading physician’s practical, proven guide to supporting and improving one of the body’s most vital functions—the lymphatic system—to alleviate and heal chronic pain and immune dysfunction.

STOP CHASING PAIN:
Reset Your Lymphatic System to Clear Inflammation, Break Chronic Pain, and Rebuild Your Health
by Dr. Perry Nickelston
Harper, June 2027

The lymphatic system is one of the body’s most overlooked yet essential systems. If it stopped working, we would be dead within a day and yet few people understand this vital system or how to keep it functioning optimally. Working in conjunction with the cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, immune, and nervous systems, our lymphatic system plays a critical role in both physical and mental health. It helps rid the body of a whole host of antigens, many of them harmful: toxins, bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, proteins, cancer cells, and metabolic cellular waste. It also helps reduce swelling and inflammation, which contribute to many chronic diseases, and removes cellular waste resulting from injury. Stress, trauma, poor nutrition, environmental toxins, a sedentary lifestyle, and medications can also impair the lymphatic system. Which is why, when our lymphatic system becomes overwhelmed, overloaded, obstructed, or stagnant, we feel it at every level of our physical and emotional health.

After creating a protocol that helped him recover from a debilitating back injury and survive an autoimmune disease, Perry Nickelston dedicated his life to applying his unique self-care lymphatic approach to help others. In Stop Chasing Pain, he teaches us how to heal ourselves holistically by nurturing our lymphatic system to achieve ideal health and performance.

Following Dr. Nickelston’s cogent, achievable self-healing protocols, you can free yourself from chronic pain and illness.

STOP CHASING PAIN includes black-and-white illustrations throughout.

With this essential guide you can:

• Break Free from Chronic Pain and Illness: A practical, proven program that targets one of the body’s most important yet frequently overlooked systems.
• Restore and Support Lymphatic Health: Simple self-care practices designed to improve recovery, resilience, and overall wellness.
• Learn from a Leading Chiropractic Physician: A doctor whose healing protocol helped him overcome a devastating injury and severe autoimmune disease.
• Reduce Inflammation and Support Immune Function: Understand how the lymphatic system works and what causes it to become overwhelmed.
• Take Control of Your Health Naturally: Achievable strategies help you move, feel, and perform better every day.

Dr. Perry Nickelston is a chiropractic physician, educator, international speaker, and founder of Stop Chasing Pain. He is a 1997 graduate of Palmer Chiropractic University and has more than twenty-eight years of clinical experience.

AI, ANIMALS, AND US de Max Taylor

How AI is transforming the lives of billions of animals—and what we can do about it.

AI, ANIMALS, AND US:
What Artificial Intelligence Holds for All Species
by Max Taylor
HarperOne, March 2027

Like it or not, AI is rapidly reshaping human life. But what does it mean for other species? In AI, Animals, and Us, researcher Max Taylor explores the surprising world of whale translators, robot dogs, AI-powered mega-farms, and the even stranger territory that lies ahead.

After reading, you’ll know how AI could:

Reveal what animals are really communicating
Change how you care for your pets
Open up new ways to help wild animals
Transform the lives of farmed animals – for better or worse

Along the way, this book tackles some of the biggest questions around AI:

What’s driving breakneck AI progress, and will it continue?
Could AI itself ever become conscious?
How can we shape AI’s values before they get set in stone?
How do we prepare ourselves—and our fellow species—for such an unpredictable future?

Most AI discussions stop at humans. AI, ANIMALS, AND US explores AI’s sweeping consequences for every species on the planet, not just our own—and how we can shape them while there’s still time. This book is for readers drawn to the big-picture thinking of Sapiens, the wonder of My Octopus Teacher, or the sharp futuristic vision of Black Mirror.

Max Taylor is a Senior Researcher at Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE), where he helps identify particularly promising organizations and projects for animal advocacy donors. Prior to ACE, he spent six years in the U.K. Civil Service, most recently leading on the government’s animal welfare labelling policy. Alongside his work at ACE, he works on various projects seeking to ensure AI benefits all species, including writing the monthly Sentient Futures newsletter. He also serves on the executive committee of the U.K. Labour Party’s Animal Welfare Society.

THE RABBIT HOUR de Sofija Stefanovic

A brilliant debut novel—part propulsive thriller, part pitch-perfect comic romp—that explores surprising tensions at the heart of the immigrant experience, inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s Shadow of a Doubt.

THE RABBIT HOUR
by Sofija Stefanovic
HarperVia, June 2027

When the Andric family goes on a weekend away, 19-year-old Maja’s rich boyfriend goes missing. Something foul seems afoot. Is Oggie, her volatile war veteran brother to blame? Will the local cop find out—if he can break away from the hilarious affair he’s having with Oggie’s Aunt Vera? Will Jelena, Oggie’s mother, take the blame—all in the name of protecting her beloved son? Or will the family band together to cover up the crime, because blood is thick, especially when you’re an outsider?

Told in four rotating perspectives over the course of one weekend, Things We Do for Love follows a group of characters inextricably bound by family, conspiracy, desire, and first-generation dreams—who may or may not have stumbled into a murder plot. As absurdly charismatic as it is profoundly resonant, this is a true American novel for our times that introduces Sofija Stefanovic as an intoxicating, extravagant new voice in upmarket and literary thrillers.

Sofija Stefanovic is the creator and host of This Alien Nation, a program that celebrates immigration, and the author of the memoir Miss Ex-Yugoslavia. She’s a regular storyteller with The Moth, and has traveled with their Mainstage, telling personal stories across the country. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times and other outlets. She lives in New York City.

FEMINISM VS. FASCISM de Mona Eltahawy

In the spirit of On Tyranny, a ten-point plan for how feminist principles can be harnessed to combat totalitarianism, authoritarianism, and fascism.

FEMINISM VS. FASCISM:
Ten Tactics to Topple Tyrants
by Mona Eltahawy
Mariner/HarperCollins US, February 2027

Far-right authoritarians have been rising to power around the world. Each election won and each rung of power snatched from the people is a sobering reminder of what’s at stake when dangerous ambition and aspirational tyranny get real.

Solutions that stick have been fleeting, despite the growing outrage and protests.

Feminist author, activist, and noted firebrand Mona Eltahawy makes a strident case for a new approach. She argues ten feminist practices as an unstoppable force against fascism because, where fascism benefits and empowers the few, feminism frees everybody. Feminist-inspired principles like “Be savage and dangerous » and “Target all tyrants,” in fact, have constantly nudged us towards a freer world. Now laying out these principles as an actionable ten-point plan, Eltahawy empowers a new generation of citizens and reignites action in those whose fury has felt aimless.

Pocket-sized and ready to return to again and again, FEMINISM VS. FASCISM offers a new way to fight.

Mona Eltahawy is an award-winning feminist author, commentator and disruptor of patriarchy. Her first book Headscarves and Hymens: Why the Middle East Needs a Sexual Revolution targeted patriarchy in the Middle East and North Africa and her second book The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls took her disruption worldwide. Eltahawy’s essays and op-eds have been published in The Washington Post, The Guardian (UK), and The New York Times, and she has appeared as a guest commentator on the BBC, CNN, PBS, Al Jazeera, NPR and dozens of other television and radio networks. She writes the newsletter FEMINIST GIANT, which has more than 23,000 subscribers in 172 countries.
