Bell's new stand-alone poetry collection entitled "The Lighthouse And It's Keeper" is a breathtaking journey that enlightens and uplifts her readers from all walks of life. As she describes the beauty of the lighthouse (or the life of the reader) and the keeper (the reader themselves), Bell graces us with the beautiful gift of a poetic guide to self-acceptance and self-love that each of us not only desires but truly deserves. As always, her words are somehow both rawly poignant and yet utterly light and warm as the morning sun at the same time, providing us all with a seemingly contradictory - yet nonetheless real - sense of wonder and camaraderie so intense it is unlike any other poet before her.

"The words flow in and out from haunting to beautiful and at times, molding into both simultaneously. The emotions are deep and raw and the words connect to the core through their vivid descriptions and strikingly visual metaphors." - David Leidy Amazon Categories: Poetry Poetry for Teens & Young Adults Death, Grief & Loss Women's Poetry Mental Health Poetry Poems Love Poetry
Bell has left me gasping for air in awe of her ability to express the inner suffering and ultimate enlightenment of the soul after passing through times of grave darkness." - David Leidy This collection of poetry is a raw and emotionally gripping tale told through a loose narrative style and imbued with Bell's passion and personality. It retains a beautiful and haunting style of composition in which we are given an unfettered look into the thought processes -however different than our own- of mental illness and the brutal honesty of it. The often lyrical style and lightness of the rhyme arrangements that juxtapose the weight of the concepts discussed within are powerful and unique among contemporary poems.

Behavioural economics has become a popular way of tackling a broad range of issues in public policy. By presenting a more descriptive and possibly accurate representation of human behaviour than traditional economics, Behavioural Incentive Design for Health Policy tries to make sense of decisions that follow a wider conception of welfare, influenced by social norms and narratives, pro-social motivations and choice architectures which were generally neglected by standard economics. The authors show how this model can be applied to tackle a wide range of issues in public health, including smoking, the obesity crisis, exercise uptake, alcoholism, preventive screenings and attitudes towards vaccinations. It shows not only how behavioural economics allows us to better understand such challenges, but also how it can design effective incentives for addressing them. This book is an extensive reassessment of the interaction between behavioural incentives and health.
