Selected for J.P. Morgan's 2018 Holiday Reading List

Imagine your life without the internet. Without phones. Without television. Without sprawling cities. Without the freedom to continue working and playing after the sun goes down.

Electricity is at the core of all modern life. It has transformed our society more than any other technology. Yet, no book offers a comprehensive history about this technological marvel.

Until now.

Simply Electrifying: The Technology that Transformed the World, from Benjamin Franklin to Elon Musk brings to life the 250-year history of electricity through the stories of the men and women who used it to transform our world: Benjamin Franklin, James Watt, Michael Faraday, Samuel F.B. Morse, Thomas Edison, Samuel Insull, Albert Einstein, Rachel Carson, Elon Musk, and more. In the process, it reveals for the first time the complete, thrilling, and often-dangerous story of electricity's historic discovery, development, and worldwide application.

Electricity plays a fundamental role not only in our everyday lives but in history's most pivotal events, from global climate change and the push for wind- and solar-generated electricity to Japan's nuclear accident at Fukushima and Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons.

Written by electricity expert and four-decade veteran of the industry Craig R. Roach, Simply Electrifying marshals, in fascinating narrative detail, the full range of factors that shaped the electricity business over time--science, technology, law, politics, government regulation, economics, business strategy, and culture--before looking forward toward the exhilarating prospects for electricity generation and use that will shape our future.

chemical exfoliation is better than scrubbing!
Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I'm maintaining a professional peel with these bad boys and it's working! I love how they create a smooth surface for make-up. Since I've stopped chemical exfoliation these keep my skin texture looking great.

My Makeup Finally Grips Again, These Pads Work
Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1), Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
My friend recommended the Thayers toner pads because my makeup was having a hard time gripping on my nose and upper cheeks. She told me I needed at least some basic skin prep, and her routine is a cleanser, these toner pads, a moisturizer, and a weekly exfoliator. She said these pads were great , and honestly, wow. They’re a great value for the price. And I love how it’s travel-ish size for when I am running later. The toner pads alone made a huge difference. My makeup finally started gripping so much better. The first time I used them, my buildup was so bad I had to use two pads, front and back. Ever since then, my skin actually enjoys my weekly (sometimes twice‑weekly) exfoliating pads. This brand and combo make my skin look more youthful, brighter, and clean. It’s such an easy step to add, and I even take them on the go when I’m short on time. Thank you, Thayers.

Cute, fun treat that’s perfect for a dog’s birthday
Flavor Name: Boy, Size: 8 Count (Pack of 1)
This Thoughtfully Pets blue dog birthday cookie is such a fun way to celebrate a pup’s special day. The packaging is adorable and really makes it feel like a treat meant for an occasion, not just an everyday snack. The cookie itself feels well made and sturdy, and my dog was very excited about it. I also liked that it didn’t have an overpowering smell and didn’t crumble everywhere when broken into pieces. It’s a great size for gifting or as a little birthday surprise, and it definitely made the moment feel more special. Overall, it’s a cute, thoughtful treat that’s perfect for celebrating a dog birthday and bringing a little extra joy to the day.
