"Laws of Courage."

"What?" Omaha said.

"Laws of Courage," I said. I pointed to the book in the new age section of the store. It was on sale. It looked like a mash-up between Gretchen Rubin (for whom I have enormous respect) and Deepak Chopra (for whom I have none).

"I thought you said 'Claws of Courage.'"

"That sounds like a sci-fi novel."

"Sci fi?" she said.

"You're right. Fantasy. Although it could work as Transformers Beast-Wars Fanfic with lots of 'shipping."

What've you got against Deepak Chopra?

His pernicious use of the word "quantum" to imply "magic." That and his equally vile campaign to label atheists as know nothings who demand that religion actually provide facts and evidence, while religionists know without facts or evidence that generic "religion" is true and valid.

Bingo!

As someone with a PhD in Physics, who had to study Quantum Mechanics for several years, I wanna smack people who toss around the word, "quantum" like that.

"Claws of Courage" sounds to me like something that would come out of Sofawolf Press (http://www.sofawolf.com/).
