Women have always made video games, from the 1960s and the first-of-its-kind, projector-based Sumerian Game to the blockbuster Uncharted games that defined the early 2000s. Women have been behind the writing, design, scores, and engines that power one of the most influential industries out there. In Gamer Girls, now you can explore the stories of 25 of those women. Bursting with bold artwork, easy-to-read profiles, and real-life stories of the women working on games like Centipede, Final Fantasy, Halo, and more, this dynamic illustrated book shows what a huge role women have played—and will continue to play—in the creation of video games.

Taylor Swift is the voice of generations, her words the soundtrack to our lives. But her legacy is not just her trail of hits, the records she broke, or her tour through the eras - it is her ability to embody our collective emotions, struggles, and triumphs in her art.  The Psychgeist of Pop Culture: Taylor Swift celebrates the icon herself across 13 chapters (it had to be 13, right?) discussing her evolution as a work-in progress person, musical storytelling, and all the Easter Eggs along the way.

"Taylor Swift is arguably one of the most famous people on the planet. This book takes an insightful walk through Taylor’s career to provide a psychological exploration of why she remains so incredibly relatable and endearing in her music, as well as a dive into the power of the Swiftie community - a must read!"
-Dr. Ashleigh Johnstone, Chartered Psychologist
