In 1437, his pious and gentle son comes of age and takes the throne. Frail in both body and

Richard, Duke of York, however, believes that without a strong king England will fall. His
fears seem justified as English power comes under threat from France, and discontent and
rebellion spread at home.
On the counsel of his advisers, Henry marries the young princess Margaret of Anjou in order to
forge an alliance with France - but is it too late?
As the storm clouds gather, King Henry and his queen are besieged abroad and at home. Who
can save the throne? Who will save the kingdom?

consolations of old age and – really – about the legacy of Europe's history over the last fifty
years.

An exquisite new novel from the Pulitzer prize-winning author of Olive Kitteridge.
A mother comes to visit her daughter in hospital after having not seen her in many years. Her
unexpected visit forces Lucy to confront her past, uncovering long-buried memories of a
profoundly impoverished childhood; and her present, as the façade of her new life in New York
begins to crumble, awakening her to the reality of her faltering marriage and her unsteady
journey towards becoming a writer.
From Lucy's hospital bed, we are drawn ever more deeply into the emotional complexity of
family life, the inescapable power of the past, and the memories - however painful - that bind a
family together. My Name Is Lucy Barton is a tender expression of the meaning of familial love
from one of America's finest writers.

It is 1946, and Sydney is a changed city.
In the aftermath of World War II, soldiers have returned to their neighbourhoods, and the
community is mending its rifts. When eleven-year-old Frances Reed is found raped and
murdered in a Newtown cemetery, the sensationalised details make their way into the media,
whipping the city into frenzy — everyone wants the killer found and justice served.
Sixteen-year-old Templeton lives in the seediest part of Sydney's underbelly, amid bootleggers,
gangs, and prostitutes, with his sister Annie and her friends. Convinced he knows who killed
Frances, he becomes determined to bring the perpetrator to justice, in the process becoming
embroiled in a feud between Annie's beau, the violent Jack Tooth, and local hard man Bob
Newham.
In the doglegged streets of Darlinghurst, Templeton and Annie are forced to seek protection
from a madam: the once-powerful grog runner Dolly Jenkins. Under Jenkins' roof, Templeton is
drawn into a titillating, enigmatic world of bohemian sexuality, where secrets abound.
Inspired by a real murder case, Dark Fires Shall Burn is a powerful historical crime novel that
explores the intersection of justice and vengeance, and a community's hunger for resolution.

Grace Lisa Vandenburg counts. The letters in her name (19). The steps she takes every morning
to the local café (920); the number of poppy seeds on her slice of orange cake, which dictates
the number of bites she'll take to finish it. Grace counts everything, because numbers hold the
worlds together. And she needs to keep an eye on how they're doing.
Seamus Joseph O'Reilly (also a 19, with the sexiest hands Grace has ever seen) thinks she
might be better off without the counting. If she could hold down a job, say. Or open her kitchen
cupboards without conducting an inventory, or make a sandwich containing an unknown
number of sprouts.
Grace's problem is that Seamus doesn't count.
Her other problem is…he does.
Addition is the bestselling debut novel of Toni Jordan, author of Fall Girl and Nine Days. Grace
is witty, flirtatious and headstrong. She's not a bit sentimental but even so, she may be about to
lose track of the number of ways she can fall in love.

So when Sid suggests they reconnect the old-fashioned way—through real, handwritten

relationship, not to mention their marriages, might not survive.
Keep Me Posted is a fresh and funny debut about the struggles of keeping in touch, keeping it
real and keeping it together.

'Thus bad begins and worse remains behind . . .'
As a young man, Juan de Vere takes a job that will haunt him for the rest of his life. Spain is
just beginning to recover from Franco's long rule; its people are still struggling to free
themselves from the snares of old secrets, lies and betrayals. Juan, too young to have known the
worst of these years, finds himself drawn first by obligation and then by desire into the
melancholy and unforgiving world of his employer, Eduardo Muriel.
Muriel is an urbane, celebrated filmmaker; his wife Beatriz a woman who slips through her
husband's home like an unwanted ghost, finding solace in other beds. And on the periphery of
this unhappy marriage stands Dr Jorge Van Vechten, a shadowy family friend implicated in
unsavoury rumours that Muriel cannot bear to pursue, yet asks his new assistant, Juan, to
investigate instead.
Juan is determined to satisfy Muriel's curiosity but soon has questions of his own - ones his
employer has not asked and would prefer not to answer. Why does Muriel hate Beatriz? How
did Beatriz meet Van Vechten? And what took place in those dark years after the Civil War? As
he learns more about those he serves, Juan begins to understand the conflicting pulls of desire,
power and guilt that govern all their lives - and his own.
Thus Bad Begins is a hypnotising study of the infinitely permeable boundaries between private
and public selves, between observer and participant, between the deceptions we suffer from
others and those we enact upon ourselves. In this portrait of a marriage and a nation haunted by
guilt, Javier Marias captures all the shifting moral uncertainties that move beneath the surface
of strangers' lives, under 'the somnolent, half-open eye of the cold, sentinel moon'.

this? Floating on the dusk tide among numberless ghostly jellyfish, she feels everything inside
herself shattering apart in slow motion. It is the best thing that ever happened to her.

boundaries of their relationship, testing the bonds of kinship to breaking point. Intoxicating and
compulsively readable, Hot Milkunspools a hypnotic tale of female rage and sexuality, of myths

From the author of the bestselling, Booker-shortlisted A Fraction of the Whole
Aldo Benjamin, relentlessly unlucky in every aspect of life, has always faced the future with
despair and optimism in equal measure. His latest misfortune, though, may finally have
brought him undone. There's still hope, but not for Aldo.
His mate Liam hasn't been doing much better – a failed writer with a rocky marriage and a
dangerous job he never wanted – until he finds inspiration in Aldo's exponential disaster. What
begins as an attempt to document these improbable but inevitable experiences becomes a
profound exploration of fate, fear and friendship.

The French title of Men plays on a quote by Marguerite Duras: 'We have to love men a lot. A
lot, a lot. Love them a lot in order to love them. Otherwise it's impossible, we couldn't bear
them.'
With her characteristic intensity, edginess and humour, Marie Darrieussecq explores female
desire, what it means to be a woman. Solange was a provincial teenager in All the Way; now in
her thirties, she's not a great mother, is a mediocre actress, but in Hollywood she falls for a
charismatic actor, Kouhouesso, who wants to direct a movie of Joseph Conrad's Heart of
Darkness—in Africa. He's black; she's white—what's the difference when it comes to love, she
wonders?
Solange follows her man to Africa, determined to play a main role in both his film and his
affections. But nothing goes to plan in this brilliantly droll examination of romance, moviemaking and clichés about race relations. After all, there's no guarantee you'll be loved by the
one you love.
Personal and political, passionate and engaged, Men is a novel that will make you see things
differently.

'A man's eye is accommodative, like his heart.'
Samuel Browne's wife has left him suddenly after just three years of marriage. She invites him
to 'go live a better life without me'. He must start again, and alone.
And so it is that Sam finds himself deep in the English countryside in a cold but characterful
old house, remote and encircled by hills, in the employment and company of an older, wiser
man, a man as fond of mystery as he is of enlightenment. What is the purpose of the seemingly
hopeless task set for Sam in the house's ancient library? What is the secret of the unused room?
And where does a life lose its way or gain its meaning?
The combe is home to a truth born of fraud, a building made of light, and a family wrecked by
recklessness: loss and love reverberate around the house and around the novel, providing
pleasure, pain and purpose. Combe Hall is a house designed to honour and to enthral. And this
very fine debut novel does exactly the same things.

Fashion PR exec Ally Bloom got her happy ending. Okay, her marriage might be showing the
odd crack, her battleaxe mother-in-law might have come to stay, and she might not be the
yummy mummy she'd imagined, but it's nothing a decent night's sleep and a firm commitment
to a no-carb diet won't fix.
But when Ally returns to work and finds she'll be reporting to a 22-year-old airhead, she
decides to turn her back on life as a professional fashionista and embrace her inner earth mama
instead. So it's out with the Louboutins and champagne and in with the sensible flats and coffee

From attending her first grown-up dinner party only to discover that placenta is top of the menu
to controlling her monster crush on local playgroup hottie Cameron, Ally must find her feet in
the brave new world of the stay-at-home mum.

apart. Then a sudden and unexpected call home forces him to confront the hole in his life that
was once filled with his wife Claire and his son Ethan.
When Ethan secretly intercepts a letter from Mark to Claire, he unleashes long-suppressed
forces that – like gravity – pull the three together again, testing the limits of love and
forgiveness.

An unforgettable novel that transports the reader from modern-day Australia to the windswept
Isle of Wight and the courtrooms of London in the 1780s.
With her marriage on the rocks, workaholic lawyer Liz Jones agrees to visit Seagrove, a stately
home on the Isle of Wight, while she quietly investigates its provenance on behalf of a client.
When she discovers Seagrove is linked to a notorious eighteenth-century court case, Liz
becomes fascinated – not only by the house and its history, but also by its current owners.
In the winter of 1789, the infamous Delany Nash scandalised London when details of her
alleged affair with her husband's brother were aired in a public courtroom. Yet her journals
reveal an extraordinary woman's tale of passion, betrayal and heartbreak.
Captivated by Delany's story, Liz delves into her research but the more she uncovers, the more
she risks jeopardising the future of everyone at Seagrove. For there are dark secrets that
surround the house, and when the truth emerges the repercussions will echo down through the
centuries.
The Wife's Tale is a mesmerising story of love, loyalty and sacrifice.

free will and fate - with unforgettable scenes of nineteenth-century Russia, to create a
magnificent epic of human life in all its imperfection and grandeur.

With Capital in the Twenty-First Century, Thomas Piketty wrote a bestselling book that was
widely agreed to be 'extraordinarily important' (Martin Wolf, Financial Times). His powerful,
evidence-based analysis and solutions - including progressive wealth taxes to reduce inequality
- were praised as much as his wonderful range of reference and panache.
Bringing readers the same expert eye, breadth of thought and practical ideas - but in very short
pieces - Chronicles provides Piketty's analysis of the financial crisis, and of subjects and
individuals, from productivity in Britain to Barack Obama. Comprising the very best of his
writing for Liberation from the past ten years, translated into English for the first time, it will
further cement Piketty's reputation as the leading thinker in the world today.

Yeonmi Park was not dreaming of freedom when she escaped from North Korea. She didn't
even know what it meant to be free. All she knew was that she was running for her life, that if
she and her family stayed behind they would die - from starvation, or disease, or even
execution.
This book is the story of Park's struggle to survive in the darkest, most repressive country on
earth; her harrowing escape to South Korea through China's underworld of smugglers and
human traffickers; and her emergence as a leading human rights activist - all before her 21st
birthday.

Since British explorer James Cook first circumnavigated Antarctica in the late 18th century, the
white continent has exerted a powerful attraction. There is no permanent human habitation, and
no mercy from the raw, relentless elements, yet for nearly 200 years explorers and scientists
have been drawn to work and sometimes risk their lives here.
Rebecca Priestley's landmark anthology reveals the numerous scientific discoveries that have
been made, from how sea creatures survive in the freezing waters, to the continent's
extraordinary proliferation of meteorites and the startling revelations of its fossils. In the early
days, nations vied to establish a presence on the continent to try and claim its resources. Today
scientists track the arrival of space particles and examine ice cores, sea-floor sediments and
rocks hewn by glaciers to better understand our universe, uncover the story of climate change,
and learn how a land once covered in forests became a frozen desert.
More than an anthology, this unique book is a thrilling journey through time as explorers and
scientists unravel the mysteries of Earth's last great wilderness.

Sweet Dreams Are Made of This: A Life In Music

Dave Stewart's life has been a wild ride—one filled with music, constant reinvention, and the
never-ending drive to create. Growing up in industrial northern England, he left home for the
gritty London streets of the seventies, where he began collaborating and performing with
various musicians, including a young waitress named Annie Lennox.
The chemistry between Stewart and Lennox was undeniable, and an intense romance
developed. While their passion proved too much offstage, they thrived musically and developed
their own sound. They called themselves Eurythmics and launched into global stardom with the
massively popular album Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).
For the first time, Stewart shares the incredible, high-octane stories of his life in music—the
drug-fueled adventures, the A-list collaborations and relationships, and the creative process that
brought us blockbusters from Eurythmics like ' Here Comes the Rain Again' and 'Would I Lie
to You' as well as Tom Petty's 'Don't Come Around Here No More,' No Doubt's 'Underneath It
All,' Golden Globe winner 'Old Habits Die Hard' with Mick Jagger, and many more.
From great friendships and creative partnerships including the group SuperHeavy along with
Jagger, Joss Stone, Damian Marley, and A. R. Rahman, to inspired performances and intimate
moments in the studio—Stewart highlights the musicians he admires and calls friends, from
Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks, Elton John, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr to Bono, Bon Jovi, and
Katy Perry.
With a behind-the-scenes look at Stewart's innovative endeavors that keep him on the cuttingedge of the music business, Sweet Dreams Are Made of This is a one-of-a-kind portrait of the
creative heart of one of its most gifted and enterprising contributors.
'He's the Musician's Musician.' Rolling Stone
'Dave is a dreamer and a fearless innovator, a visionary of high order, [and] an explosive
musician [who] innately recognizes the genius in other people and puts it into play without
being manipulative.' Bob Dylan
'Jack of All Trades Master of All of Them.' The Sunday Times (UK)
'A terrific songwriter, guitarist, and producer.' USA Today
'Dave and I are indelibly woven into each other's history. Like the three musketeers rolled into
two, we were compadres on a great big roller coaster ride of creative adventure. There is no
fiction stranger than truth. I know because I lived through it. Miraculously we both survived!'
Annie Lennox
'In 2010, I spent an entire year with Dave making a record called In Your Dreams at my house
in Los Angeles. It was the 'best year of my life.' But now, I really see what it meant to me; it
meant everything. He allowed me to be my most creative self. He is my hero. The memories of
those days still take my breath away. Thanks Dave. It was real . . . beautiful.' Stevie Nicks

Ping Fu was born on the eve of China's Cultural Revolution; aged just eight she was taken from
the arms of her loving family. She suffered appalling treatment and was denied an education.
For ten years she lived in bleak dormitories, while protecting her younger sister from Mao's
Red Guards.
She survived, even succeeding in gaining admission to university. Yet, her education brought
unwanted political attention and she was forced into exile. Arriving in the United States,
speaking just three words in English, she set about making her fortune ...
Bend, Not Break tells the incredible personal story of a journey from imprisonment to freedom,
from the dogmatic anticapitalism of Mao's China to the high-stakes world of technology startups in the US. It is a tribute to one woman's courage in the face of cruelty, and a valuable lesson
on the enduring power of resilience.

Take Me to Paris, Johnny is John Foster's moving yet unsentimental account of the life of his
partner, Juan Céspedes. It traces Juan's youth in Cuba and his move to New York, where he
struggles to make it as a dancer. There, in 1981—in 'a chance encounter, much like any other'—
he meets John, an Australian historian.
What begins as just a fling becomes a dazzling six-year affair. The two travel between New
York, Berlin and Melbourne, struggling with bureaucracy in their quest to gain Juan residency
in Australia, then with the disease taking the lives of gay men around the globe. To the end,
Juan—'an exotic bird, the only one of his kind' in Melbourne—is captivating, witty, headstrong.
First published in 1993, not long before John Foster's death, Take Me to Paris, Johnny is
brilliant and unflinching, at once controlled and impassioned: a love story told with humour and
unerring skill. This edition includes an introduction by Peter Craven and an expanded
biographical portrait of the author by John Rickard.
'[A] literary masterpiece…Unparalleled in Australian letters…Makes most fiction, here or
elsewhere, look paltry by comparison.' Peter Craven, from the Introduction
'Brilliantly accomplished use of language…Few other books documenting this illness rumble

'As much as anything, World War I turned on the fate of Ukraine'
The decision to go to war in 1914 had catastrophic consequences for Russia. The result was
revolution, civil war and famine in 1917-20, followed by decades of communist rule. Dominic
Lieven's powerful and original new book, based on exhaustive and unprecedented study in
Russian and many other foreign archives, explains why this suicidal decision was made and
explores the world of the men who made it, thereby consigning their entire class to death or
exile and making their country the victim of a uniquely terrible political experiment under
Lenin and Stalin.
'A gripping, poignant and in some respects revolutionary contribution to European history . . .
The origins, course and effects of the First World War have been minutely researched but not,
until Dominic Lieven's masterly new book, from a Russian point of view . . . an indispensable
read.' Economist
'This magnificent book, lively in perceptions and bristling with empirical novelty, is a pleasure
to read.' Robert Service, Literary Review
'Masterly . . . an important contribution to our wider understanding of the origins of the First
World War.' Roger Moorhouse, Independent
'Deeply researched, highly valuable and unfailingly well-written.' André van Loon, Spectator
'With its important new evidence about Russia's slide towards war, this is a much-needed
account of a how a few clever but foolish men ruined their country and brought disaster on
themselves.' Victor Sebestyen, Sunday Times
This Orient Isle: Elizabethan England and the Islamic World
Brotton, Jerry
$65.00 (Royal H/B 230x152mm) Allen Lane 352pp
16 May 2016 9780241004029 Carton Qty: 1
In 1570, when it became clear she would never be gathered into the Catholic fold, Elizabeth I
was excommunicated by the Pope. It was the beginning of an English alignment with Muslim
powers, and of cultural, economic and political exchanges with the Islamic world of a depth not
again experienced until the modern age. England signed treaties with the Ottoman Porte,
received ambassadors from the kings of Morocco and shipped munitions to Marrakesh in the
hope of establishing an accord that would keep the common enemy of Catholic Spain at bay.
By the late 1580s hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Elizabethan merchants, diplomats, sailors,
artisans and privateers were plying their trade from Morocco to Persia.
The awareness of Islam which these Englishmen brought home found its way into many of the
great English cultural productions of the day, including most famously Marlowe's Tamburlaine,
and Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus, The Merchant of Venice and Othello. Less well known is
that English merchants had reached Persia in the 1560s, and that by the 1580s Elizabeth was
corresponding with the Ottoman sultan, having installed an ambassador in Constantinople with
the express intention of fomenting conflict with Spain. In 1599 Thomas Dallam, a Lancastrian
blacksmith, was sent to the Ottoman capital to play his clockwork organ in front of Sultan
Mehmed and the adventurer Sir Anthony Shirley was at the court of the Persian Shah Abbas the
Great. The following year the Moroccan ambassador, Abd al-Wahid bin Mohammed al-Annuri,
spent six months in London with his entourage. Shakespeare wrote Othello six months later.
This Orient Isle shows that England's relations with the Muslim world were far more extensive,
and often more amicable, than we have ever appreciated, and that their influence was felt across
the political, commercial and domestic landscape of Elizabethan England. It is a startlingly
unfamiliar picture of a part of our national and international history that Jerry Brotton recreates
in vivid and timely fashion.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot: strange days in Afghanistan and Pakistan

A true-life Catch-22 set in the war-torn countries of Afghanistan and Pakistan, by one of
the region's longest-serving correspondents.
Kim Barker is not your typical, impassive foreign correspondent — she is candid, selfdeprecating, and funny. At first an awkward newbie in Afghanistan, she grows into a
wisecracking, seasoned reporter with grave concerns about the ability of US might to win hearts
and minds in the region. As she does the 'Taliban shuffle' between conflict zones, Barker offers
a close-up account of the war in Afghanistan and Pakistan, chronicling the years after America's
initial routing of the Taliban.
When Barker arrives in Kabul, foreign aid is at a record low, electricity is a pipe dream, and of
the few remaining foreign troops, some aren't allowed out after dark. Meanwhile, in the vacuum
left by the US and NATO, the Taliban is regrouping.
Swift, funny, and wholly original, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot unforgettably captures the absurdity
and tragedy of our modern wars.

Forty-Seven Days: How Pershing's Warriors Came of Age to
Defeat the German Army in World War I

The Battle of the Meuse-Argonne stands as the deadliest clash in American history: More than
a million untested American soldiers went up against a better-trained and -experienced German
army, costing more twenty-six thousand deaths and leaving nearly a hundred thousand
wounded. Yet in forty-seven days of intense combat, those Americans pushed back the enemy
and forced the Germans to surrender, bringing the First World War to an end—a feat the British
and the French had not achieved after more than three years of fighting.
In Forty-Seven Days, historian Mitchell Yockelson tells how General John J. 'Black Jack'
Pershing's exemplary leadership led to the unlikeliest of victories. Appointed commander of the
American Expeditionary Forces by President Wilson, Pershing personally took command of the
U.S. First Army until supplies ran low and the fighting ground to a stalemate. Refusing to admit
defeat, Pershing stepped aside and placed gutsy Lieutenant General Hunter Liggett in charge.
While Pershing retained command, Liggett reorganized his new unit, resting and resupplying
his men, while instilling a confidence in the doughboys that drove them out of the trenches and
across no-man's-land.
Also explored are a cast of remarkable individuals, including America's original fighter ace,
Eddie Rickenbacker; Corporal Alvin York, a pacifist who nevertheless single-handedly killed
more than twenty Germans and captured 132; artillery officer and future president Harry S.
Truman; innovative tank commander George S. Patton; and Douglas MacArthur, the Great
War's most decorated soldier, who would command the American army in the Pacific War and
in Korea.
Offering an abundance of new details and insight, Forty-Seven Days is the definitive account of
the First Army's hard-fought victory in World War I—and the revealing tale of how our
military came of age in its most devastating battle.
'On September 26, 1918, the American Expeditionary Forces began the Battle of the Argonne
Forest lacking a strategy, experience, or an understanding of what lay ahead. Forty-seven days
later, at battle's end, the back of the German army had been broken and General John J.
Pershing had secured his place as one of the great generals in American history. The story of
this pivotal battle has never been better told than it is here. Mitchell Yockelson expands our
understanding not only of how World War I ended, but also of how militaries can change and
adapt under conditions of great adversity.' Max Boot, New York Times Bestselling Author
ofThe Savage Wars of Peace: Small Wars and the Rise of American Power and Invisible
Armies: An Epic History of Guerrilla Warfare from Ancient Times to the Present Day
'Get ready to dig into one of the wildest and deadliest battles in history. The beautifully
researched Forty-Seven Days takes you right there and shows you all the minute details, from
the pings of a bullet to Pershing's confidence and fears.' Brad Meltzer, New York
Times Bestselling Author of The President's Shadow
'The Meuse-Argonne campaign in 1918 was the most significant battle fought by American
Doughboys in World War I. In Forty-Seven Days, Mitchell Yockelson has written a superbly
researched account of their coming of age under the leadership of Gen. John J. 'Black Jack'
Pershing. This book will take its place as one of the best books written about the largest and one
of the deadliest campaigns in American military history.' Carlo D'Este, Author of Patton: A
Genius For War
'Mitchell Yockelson has become a preeminent World War I historian. With an absorbing
narrative, fast pacing, and gritty detail, his Forty-Seven Days brings to life that war's final and
bloody Meuse-Argonne offensive, when General John 'Black Jack' Pershing and more than one
million American and French soldiers broke the back of the mighty German army.' Douglas

On February 17, Landing Craft Infantry 449 was among a dozen gunboats helping to prepare
the area for their invasion two days later. U.S. military leaders thought they had weakened
Japanese forces in the area so they were not expecting any action . . .
From the towering slopes of Mount Suribachi, Japanese forces opened fire, forcing the U.S.
commanders to recalculate battlefield plans. They shelled and bombed the newly discovered
enemy positions. It was a move that saved countless lives two days later, when tens of
thousands of Marines stormed the beach.
The Heart of Hell is the untold story of the crew of Landing Craft Infantry 449. Based on 130
exclusive interviews with sailors who survived the battle, the families of the men killed in the
fight, and more than 1,500 letters the sailors mailed to loved ones during their long months at
sea, this is a story of duty, brotherhood, love, and courage.

'For some reason nothing seemed to happen to us at first; we strolled along as though walking
in a park. Then, suddenly, we were in the midst of a storm of machine-gun bullets and I saw
men beginning to twirl round and fall in all kinds of curious ways'
On 1 July 1916, a continous line of British soldiers climbed out from the trenches of the
Somme into No Man's Land and began to walk towards dug-in German troops armed with
machine-guns. By the end of the day there were more than 60,000 British casualties - a third of
them fatal.
Martin Middlebrook's now-classic account of the blackest day in the history of the British army
draws on official sources from the time, and on the words of hundreds of survivors: normal
men, many of them volunteers, who found themselves thrown into a scene of unparalleled
tragedy and horror.

Tomorrow's business winners need two things: scale and agility. The answer to both is design.
For over a century, The Coca-Cola Company has used design to scale its flagship brand to over
200 countries. And in recent years it has sustained that growth while becoming even
more agile - something most established businesses struggle with.
In Design to Grow, Coca-Cola's VP of Innovation and Entrepreneurship David Butler gives an
unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at Coca-Cola's design-led strategy for growth. He shows
how any business can use the same approach to get to the next level.
Clear and actionable, this book is a must-read for leaders, creatives and entrepreneurs.
'A handy blueprint for how any company can use design to stay ahead of the competition.' The
Times

it will do the same for how you think about yours.' Tim Brown, CEO of IDEO

and calls on everyone to remake the economic operating system from the inside out. With
practical steps and incisive analysis, he offers a pragmatic, optimistic and human-centred model
for economic progress in the digital age.

morning knowing that you can only win?

Compete outwardly in a healthy, rewarding way

Packard shares her career story with humor and candor, including the successes and the
mistakes, the triumphs and some personal and career setbacks, and presents them as teachable

our family we did not list them as 'rules' but we learned by my mother's example. Difficult
balancing acts, like being gracious while staying cool, and showing grit while valuing being
likeable to others, and if you fail, learn from it and try again. I live many of Packard's 'rules of
gamesmanship' through my mother's wise examples.' Rachael Ray

2 May 2016 9780714871073 Carton
Qty: 1
The Fashion Book takes a fresh look at the fashion world and the people who created and
inspired it.
Spanning almost 200 years, the entire industry is represented; from clothing and footwear
designers, to photographers, stylists, icons and retailers, including the new category of
educational institutions that have been fundamental in the careers of many of the creative
individuals.
Marking the significant changes on the fashion landscape since the first edition, this revision
includes updates on existing entries as well as important new names who have fundamentally
shaped the way we see fashion, from designers such as Nicholas Ghesquière, Gareth Pugh and
Phoebe Philo, influential image makers Mert and Marcus and Mario Sorrenti, and
contemporary icons Lady Gaga and Tilda Swinton, representing just a few of the many exciting
new figures. New faces rub shoulders with the fashion pioneers of the original edition; such as
Coco Chanel, Issey Miyake, Yves Saint Laurent, Kate Moss and Helmut Newton. In keeping in
the reference style of the first edition, this new edition reflects a comprehensive view of the
fashion industry today.
Easy to use and filled with inspirational images,The Fashion Book is organized as an A-Z guide
of names, listing 576 entries across the categories of clothing and accessory designers,
photographers, institutions, models and those iconic individuals who instigated or symbolize a
whole fashion movement. Cutting through the usual classifications, and organized
alphabetically, the book creates unexpected juxtapositions that make fascinating and unlikely
partnerships: the powerful Anna Wintour sits opposite the pioneer of modern fashion, Charles
Worth while Terry Richardson rubs shoulders with Herb Ritts, and digital print wunderkind
Mary Katranzou meets Rei Kawakubo.
Each entry is illustrated with a photograph or drawing from the most important creative talents
in the industry - showing a quintessential aspect of their work. An accompanying text describes
where they fit into the fashion story and includes essential biographical information about the
subject. In addition, The Fashion Book uses a comprehensive cross-referencing system and
glossary which explain the many collaborations and techniques used in fashion, that singular
business which lives somewhere between art and commerce.

Sarah Sze: Contemporary artists series
Enwezor, Okwui
$70.00 (Misc P/B) Phaidon 160pp
2 May 2016 9780714870465 Carton
Qty: 1
The first substantial monograph on an artist whose sculptures capture the proliferation of
information and objects in contemporary life.
Sarah Sze (b. Boston, 1969, lives and works in New York) has developed a sculptural aesthetic
that transforms space through radical shifts in scale, colonizing peripheral spaces, engaging
with the history of a building, and altering the viewer's perception and experience of
architecture through large, site-specific interventions. Known for her unexpected and carefully
arranged combinations of materials, from cotton buds and tea bags to water bottles and ladders,
light bulbs and electric fans, Sze has presented ephemeral installations that penetrate walls,
suspend from ceilings and burrow into the ground. Her work exists at the intersection of
sculpture, drawing and architecture where her formal interest in light, air and movement is
coupled with an intuitive understanding of colour and texture.
Like the scientific instruments of measurement they often reference, Sze's sculptures attempt to
quantify and organize the universe, ascribing a fragile, personal system of order. Within her
practice, sculpture becomes both a device for organizing and dismantling information and a
mechanism to locate and dislocate oneself in time and space.
Sze received a BA from Yale University in Connecticut in 1991 and an MFA from New York's
School of Visual Arts in 1997. She is represented by Tanya Bonakdar in New York and
Victoria Miro in London. In 2013 she represented the United States at the 55th Venice
Biennale. She was the recipient of a MacArthur Fellows Program Genius Grant in 2003 and of
the AICA Award for Best Project in a Public Space in 2012.
Her work is well represented in important private and public collections worldwide, including
those of New York's Guggenheim Museum, Museum of Modern Art, New Museum, and
Whitney Museum of American Art, along with the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago,
21st Century Museum of Art in Kanazawa, Japan, Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, Boston
Museum of Fine Arts, High Museum of Art in Atlanta, GA, and the Los Angeles Museum of
Contemporary Art.

Qty: 1
An in-depth study of the work of German-born industrial designer Richard Sapper, most
famous for designs such as the Tizio lamp and the Brionvega radio.
Richard Sapper (b. 1932), a German-born designer who has been based in Milan most of his
working career, is considered one of the most important designers of his generation. He has
received numerous international design accolades, including 10 prestigious Compasso d'Oro
awards.
Sapper has developed and designed a wide variety of products, ranging from ships and cars, to
computers and electronics as well as furniture and kitchen appliances. His clients include
Alessi, Artemide, B&B Italia, Brionvega, FIAT, Heuer, Kartell, Knoll, IBM, Lenovo, Lorenz
Milano, Magis, Molteni, Pirelli and many others.
This investigation of Sapper's work, based on over forty hours of interviews with the designer,
studies his objects, the circumstances that shaped them and the resulting ideals that emerge.
Five chapters - or 'Sapperian bullets' - explore the themes that reoccur throughout Sapper's
oeuvre, and which have a particular importance for a younger generation of designers and those
with a desire to understand Sapper's work from a fresh perspective.
An illustrated timeline, packed with images from Sapper's personal archives reveals the
incredible variety and technical brilliance of his work.
Designed by Marco Velardi, of Apartamento magazine, the book opens with an image essay
featuring candid commissioned photography by Ramak Fazel.

Every Song Ever: Twenty Ways to Listen to Music
Ratliff, Ben
$55.00 (Demy H/B 216x135mm) Allen Lane 256pp
2 May 2016 9781846146848 Carton Qty: 1
For the first time in the history of music, we can listen to nearly anything, at any time. New
technologies make it possible for us to roam across musical genres and generations, from
Detroit techno to jam bands to baroque opera - or to drive deeper into the set of tastes that we
already have. These new possibilities overturn old assumptions about what it means to properly
appreciate music.
In Every Song Ever, celebrated critic Ben Ratliff reimagines the very idea of music appreciation
for our times. As familiar categories like 'rock' or 'jazz' matter less and less, listeners can put
aside the intentions of musicians and engage music afresh on their own terms, by experience
rather than genre. If we listen for loudness, for instance, we can detect the surprising affinities
between The Sex Pistols' 'Holidays in the Sun' and the dance music of David Guetta and Sia.
And if we listen for closeness, we might notice how the tight harmonies of Lennon and
McCartney in 'She Loves You' illuminate the synchrony of John Coltrane's quartet. Ratliff also
goes in search of 'the perfect moment'; considers what it means to hear emotion by sampling the
complex sadness of Nick Drake; and examines why some people want to document and possess
the entire performance history of the Grateful Dead.
Encompassing the sounds of five continents and several centuries, Ratliff's book is an artful
work of criticism, a lesson in open-mindedness and an invitation to experiment in our new
world of sound.

The Big Fat Truth will make you uncomfortable, and it should. If you do not cry and sweat a
little when you read this book, and feel uneasy and a little excited at the same time, you did not
dig deep enough.
Being comfortable is keeping you right where you are today: unhappy, unmotivated and sitting
on the sidelines. Being uncomfortable is where the JD magic really starts. JD sees a much
bigger brighter future for you. This book will not only help you see it, too, but it will help you
believe you can get there. So if you are ready to stop playing the blame game, get rid of the
victim mentality, and stop looking for a magic bullet for your weight problems . . . if you are
ready to be your own hero and do the work as the star of your own TV show, then The Big Fat
Truth is absolutely the right book for you.
Every fat person (yes, 'fat person'—there is no sugarcoating here) knows that you need to move
more and eat less to shed pounds. Not exactly rocket science. Yet that simple formula doesn't
get to the root of what makes someone top out at 500 pounds, or sometimes just carry an extra
fifty. The missing link in transformative weight loss is mental and emotional fortitude. Mining
the same problem-solving and motivational skills JD has used so successfully with reality show
contestants, The Big Fat Truth gets readers to address the real reasons they're overweight (and
nobody gets away with saying it's because they love food). With his combination of
enthusiasm, empathy, no-holds-barred style, and master story-telling abilities, JD helps them
unearth and tackle the unresolved issues they've buried under the French fries and chocolate
chip cookies.
Presented in three parts, The Big Fat Truth includes short straight-to-the-point chapters that
help readers identify their real issues, create their own reality show, and then shake up their
lives to do the impossible.
'To lose weight for good, you need to become a beast—a beast who crushes your workouts,
who can outsmart temptation, and who has shed the fat in your head. On The Biggest Loser, JD
Roth was the guy who could wake the beast within anyone. With The Big Fat Truth, he can
awaken the weight-loss beast in you.' Jillian Michaels, The Biggest Loser
'JD Roth has a passion for making this world a better place and a unique experience helping
people change their interaction with food. His ideas are as original—and professional—as any I
have heard on this important question. His views are inspiring, and they will help you lose
weight forever.' T. Colin Campbell, PhD, bestselling author of The China Study
'JD's unparalleled positive energy is contagious. He motivates and inspires even the most
pessimistic, and has bottled his message of positivity in this book!' Harley Pasternak,
MSc, New York Times bestselling author of The Body Reset Diet, 5-Factor Diet, and 5Factor Fitness
'Though the process of weight-loss is a complex one, and controversy may exist in the medical
and nutritional worlds about how to best accomplish this goal, one thing is certain: it all starts
with the mind-body connection. No one knows this better than JD Roth. If he could write a
prescription for that, it would be 'inspiration: take one daily; repeat indefinitely'!' Jennifer L.
Ashton, M.D., F.A.C.O.G., ABC News Senior Medical Contributor on Good Morning
America and co-host of The Doctors
'On camera, you see incredible stories of transformation . . . but off camera is where the magic
happens. Yes, you need to diet and exercise to lose weight, but making the heart and mind
connection—with yourself and with others—is what will change your life forever. No one
knows how to make that connection better than JD Roth.' Chris and Heidi Powell, Extreme

Who makes your clothes? This used to be an easy question to answer: it was the seamstress
next door, or the tailor on the high street – or you made them yourself. Today we rarely know
the origins of the clothes hanging in our closets. The local shoemaker, dressmaker and milliner
are long gone, replaced by a globalised fashion industry worth $1.5 trillion a year.
In Wardrobe Crisis, fashion journalist Clare Press explores the history and ethics behind what
we wear. Putting her insider status to good use, Press examines the entire fashion ecosystem,
from sweatshops to haute couture, unearthing the roots of today's buy-and-discard culture. She
traces the origins of icons like Chanel, Dior and Hermès; charts the rise and fall of the
department store; and follows the thread that led us from Marie Antoinette to Carrie Bradshaw.
From a time when Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein were just two boys from the Bronx, to the
world of the global fashion juggernaut, where Zara's parent company produces more than 900
million garments annually, Press takes us on an insider's journey of discovery and revelation.
Wardrobe Crisis is a witty and persuasive argument for a fashion revolution that will empower
you to feel good about your wardrobe again.

Since 1984, Jivamukti yoga has been synonymous with a new way of living: peacefully,
healthfully, and consciously. Jivamukti's dedicated instructors and message of kindness have
inspired a global revolution. In 2006, Sharon Gannon and David Life opened the Jivamuktea
Café to complement their yoga school as a living expression of how compassionate spiritual
activism can be put to practical use. It, too, was an immediate success. The peaceful ambiance,
the camaraderie, and, most of all, the delicious, hearty fare struck a chord with patrons who
were thrilled to eliminate meat and dairy from their diet without sacrificing taste.
Thousands of customers—including Russell Simmons, award-winning film director Darren
Aronofsky, and Eco Spokesmama Chloé Jo Davis—have become devoted fans of Gannon's
cruelty-free burritos, chocolate mousse, and flower salads. Now, for the first time, Gannon
presents the secrets behind the café's acclaimed menu—and also showcases her own home
cooking, with recipes she's been making for family and friends for decades.
Stalwart vegans—as well as the millions of vegetarians and omnivores who eat vegan part-time
for its health and environmental benefits—will embrace Gannon's accessible, delicious, and
spiritually powerful recipes.

Digital vs Human: how we'll live, love, and think in the future
Watson, Richard
$40.00 (Royal Pb 230x152 Mm) Scribe Publications 320pp
2 May 2016 9781925321173 Carton Qty: 1
From the author of the international bestseller Future Files comes the one book you need
to read to prepare for the world of tomorrow.
On most measures that matter, we've never had it so good. Physically, life for humankind has
improved immeasurably over the last fifty years. Yet there is a crisis of progress slowly
spreading across the world. Perhaps this is due to a failure of vision; in the 1960s we dreamed
of flying cars and moon hotels; today what we've ended up with are status updates and cat
videos.
To a large degree, the history of the next fifty years will be about the relationship between
people and technologies created by a tiny handful of designers and developers. These
inventions will undoubtedly change our lives, but the question is, to what end?
What do we want these technologies to achieve on our behalf? What are they capable of, and —
as they transform the media, the economy, healthcare, education, work, and the home — what
kind of lives do we want to lead?
Richard Watson hereby extends an exuberant invitation for us to think deeply about the world
of today and envision what kind of world we wish to create in the future. In a fascinating and
accessible way, Digital vs Human examines the possible effects of technology on every area of
our lives.
Reclaiming Conversation: The Power of Talk in a Digital Age
Turkle, Sherry
$40.00 (B+ 210x138mm Demy 8vo) Penguin Press 448pp
2 May 2016 9781101980460 Carton Qty: 20
We live in a technological universe in which we are always communicating and yet we have
sacrificed conversation for mere connection. We turn away from each other and toward our
phones. We are forever elsewhere. But to empathize, to grow, to love and be loved, to take the
measure of ourselves or of another, to fully understand and engage with the world around us,
we must be in conversation. It is the most human – and humanizing – thing that we do.
Preeminent media researcher Sherry Turkle has been studying digital culture and
communication for more than thirty years. Long an enthusiast for its possibilities, here she
investigates a troubling consequence. Our passion for technology tempts us away from face-toface conversation, but conversation is a cornerstone for empathy as well as for democracy; it
sustains the best in education and in business it is good for the bottom line.
We see the costs of the flight from conversation everywhere. At the dinner table, children
compete with phones for their parents' attention. Friends learn new strategies to keep
conversations going as their peers raise and lower their eyes to check their phones. At work we
retreat to our screens, although it is conversation at the water cooler that increases productivity
and commitment. Online, we want to share opinions that our followers will agree with – a
politics that shies away from the real conflicts and solutions of the public square.
Always connected, we see loneliness as a problem that technology should solve. The necessary
conversations of solitude and self-reflection are endangered. We rely on other people to give us
a sense of ourselves even as our capacity for empathy and relationship suffers.
The moment is urgent, but there is good news: We are resilient. When we give ourselves and
our children space for conversation, we become more aware of each other and our
communities. And we are able to rediscover ourselves.
The virtues of conversation are timeless, and this most basic technology, talk, is a powerful
response to the challenges we face in our digital age.
For the failing connections of the digital world, it is the talking cure.
'Only connect!' wrote E. M. Forster in 1910. In this wise and incisive book, Sherry Turkle
offers a timely revision: 'Only converse!'' Nicholas Carr, author of The Shallows and The
Glass Cage
The Life Project: The Extraordinary Story of 70,000 Ordinary

Pearson, Helen
$65.00 (Demy H/B 216x135mm) Allen Lane 256pp
2 May 2016 9781846148262 Carton Qty: 1
The Life Project is a book filled with people fighting incredible odds, of important discoveries
from unexpected places, of determination, dedication and compassion.
From libraries, laboratories and living rooms, talking with geneticists, economists,
epidemiologists and statisticians, science writer Helen Pearson spent five years piecing together
the story of an extraordinary project, and the scientists who created and sustained it.
Beginning just after the Second World War, this single study has grown to encompass five
generations of children and over 70,000 people. The resulting work is recognized by a small
group of people worldwide as one of the greatest projects in science, but almost unknown by
the rest of us. Its story reveals how studying who we are and how we develop - gathering
information on birth weight, school work, ambitions, class, health and wealth - has enraptured
scientists, and thrown vital light on how childhood and inequality influence the course of our
lives.
Written with great verve and sensitivity, this is the astonishing tale of the best-kept secret in
British science - and, ultimately, a way to better understand our country and ourselves.

'Nothing but your own body will get you through; everything you have done in your life until
the moment you cross the finishing line is connected to the effort'
Two hours, to cover 26 miles and 385 yards. It is running's Everest, once seen as impossible.
But now we can glimpse the mountain-top.
Caesar takes us into the world of the greatest marathoners on earth. He traces the history as well
as the science and psychology of running, showing us why this race retains its savage,
enthralling appeal - and why we are drawn to test ourselves to the limit.
'Two Hours explodes out of the blocks, continues at a terrific clip, never flags and breasts the
tape victorious, its arms in the air. Like the best foot races, it is tight, pacy and riveting. Like
the best stories, it is about an apparently impossible journey. Give the man a medal.' Esquire
'A delight to read. The definitive book on professional marathon running.' Independent on
Sunday
'Ed Caesar's reportage has the feel of the very best of American journalism - as if he has
researched the matter to hell, spent his time in the field, nailed down every fact, then bashed it
out on a typewriter with a cigarette smouldering in his mouth.' Sunday Times
'Beautiful.' New York Times
'Two Hours is a kind of 'Hoop Dreams' for runners.' Spectator
'I didn't think any book could make me interested in marathon running. Two Hours did that and
much more. Ed Caesar's in-depth reporting explores one of sport's ultimate questions: is there a
final human boundary and, if so, where? A terrific book: elegant, engaging and rewarding.' Ed

Sugar is killing us
Why do we eat so much of it?
What are its hidden dangers?
In 1972, when British scientist John Yudkin first proved that sugar was bad for our health, he
was ignored by the majority of the medical profession and rubbished by the food industry.
We should have heeded his warning.
Today, 1 in 4 adults in the UK are overweight.
There is an epidemic of obese six month olds around the globe.
Sugar consumption has tripled since World War II.
Using everyday language and a range of scientific evidence, Professor Yudkin explores the ins
and out of sugar, from the different types - is brown sugar really better than white? - to how it is
hidden inside our everyday foods, and how it is damaging our health.
Brought up-to-date by childhood obesity expert Dr Robert Lustig M.D., his classic exposé on
the hidden dangers of sugar is essential reading for anyone interested in their health, the health
of their children and the health of modern society.

When your latest diet fails, you feel that you've failed. You feel frustrated, weak-willed,
and humiliated. But you shouldn't. In fact, everything you believe about how to lose
weight is wrong, because most weight-loss recommendations fly in the face of evidence
and the way your body works.
Weight gain and obesity are driven by hormones — in everyone — and only by understanding
the effects of insulin and insulin resistance can we achieve lasting weight loss.
In this highly readable and provocative book, Dr. Jason Fung sets out an original, robust theory
of obesity that provides startling insights into proper nutrition. In addition to his five basic
steps, a set of lifelong habits that will improve your health and control your insulin levels, Dr.
Fung explains how to use intermittent fasting to break the cycle of insulin resistance and reach
a healthy weight — for good.

Living an Inspired Life
Dyer, Wayne
$26.00 (Royal Pb 230x152 Mm) Hay House 272pp
1 March 2016 9781401949433 Carton Qty: 1
'What I'm offering in this book is the awareness that we can return to a full-time position of
inspiration, which is the true meaning of our life.' — Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.
There's a voice in the Universe entreating us to remember our purpose, our reason for being
here now in this world of impermanence. The voice whispers, shouts, and sings to us that this
experience—of being in form in space and time—has meaning. That voice belongs to
inspiration, which is within each and every one of us.
The feelings of emptiness; the idea that there must be something more; wondering, Is this all
there is?; and trying to determine the meaning of life . . . this is all evidence of a yearning to
reconnect with our soul space. We're aching for our calling to be felt and expressed.
In Living an Inspired Life, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer explains how we've chosen to enter this world
of particles and form. From our place of origin, in ways that we don't readily comprehend now,
we knew what we were coming here to accomplish, and we participated in setting this life
process in motion. So why not think along these same lines? Why put the responsibility or
blame on any one or any thing that's not a part of us? On Earth we have the capacity of
volition—we can choose—so let's assume that we had the same capacity when we resided in
the spiritual realm. We chose our physical body, and we chose the parents we needed for the
trip. It doesn't seem too great a stretch to move into the idea that we chose this life in concert
with our Source.
Inspiration can be cultivated and be a driving force throughout life, rather than showing up
every now and then and just as mysteriously disappearing, seemingly independent of our
desires. Inspiration is for everyone! It isn't reserved for high-profile creative geniuses in the arts
and sciences—it's inherent in our Divine birthright. The problem is that as children we're
gradually taught to believe exclusively in the world of phenomena where ego is dominant and
inspiration diminished.
As you read each chapter in this book, you'll find specific suggestions for living 'in-Spirit.'
From a very personal viewpoint, Dr. Dyer offers a blueprint through the world of inspiration—
your ultimate calling.

A recent Gallup poll in the US found that 70% of those in work didn't enjoy their job. In his
latest book, John C. Parkin brings the power of saying 'F**k It' to the subject of doing what
we love.
In this highly entertaining and motivational book, John sets out to prove that when we do what
we love, we are actually more likely to be happier, healthier, wealthier and more successful. He
addresses the significant blocks that people experience when they consider doing what they
love, including: 'Doing what you love is for time off, not work', 'Doing what I love would be
selfish', 'I just don't know what I love' and 'I could never make a living from doing what I love'.
Through no-nonsense ideas, fascinating facts and motivating calls to action, John brings us
from pessimism to inspiration, so that our thoughts become powered by 'F**k it, I can't waste
any more of my life', 'F**k it, I will find a way to make this work' and 'F**k it, I will do what I
love'.
F**k It: Do What You Love is not just a book: it's a step-by-step map to get every single
person to spend their precious time on this planet doing what they love.

Success Is for You draws upon many concepts that fans of Dr. Hawkins will recognize and
applies them to the world of business and the psychology of success. Expanding upon the
illuminating discussion of the attractor patterns of success from Power vs. Force, this
remarkable never-before-published book pulls back the curtain on the inner workings of the
successful mind. Success, according to Dr. Hawkins, is an attitude we inhabit, rather than a
goal we strive for.
New readers will find this to be a perfect introduction to an incredible teacher and foremost
expert on mental processes, providing profound insights and real-world examples to help
anyone focus on—and consequently achieve—what they desire. This fascinating book reveals:




The causality formula for success (and deconstruction of so-called failure)
How goodwill can actually turn to profit
Nine acid-test steps to determine our mode of being
How to 'get to the top' (and why the destination is really our starting point)
Yet its scope ranges far beyond a mere how-to manual. As Dr. Hawkins says, 'Having facts and
know-how . . . does not guarantee success. There are other factors involved. It is these other
secret factors that we are going to explore.' The secret factors—the energetic power principles
underlying success—are decoded here . . . delivering an eternal message of possibility for us
all.

The number one New York Times Bestseller and Ted Sensation
Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative or start a difficult
conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable.
Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect. But in a powerful new vision
Dr. Brené Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the
widely accepted myth that it's a weakness. She argues that vulnerability is in fact a strength, and
when we shut ourselves off from revealing our true selves we grow distanced from the things
that bring purpose and meaning to our lives.
Daring Greatly is the culmination of twelve years of groundbreaking social research across the
home, relationships, work and parenting. It is an invitation to be courageous; to show up and let
ourselves be seen, even when there are no guarantees.
This is vulnerability. This is daring greatly.

The classic work about choice in business and in life.
Most of our everyday decision-making tends to be confrontational. Whether in large meetings,
one-to-one or even in our own heads, opposite view points are pitted against each other.
Ultimately, there must be a winner and a loser.
In I Am Right - You Are Wrong, lateral-thinking guru Edward de Bono challenges this 'rock
logic' of rigid categories and point-scoring arguments which is both destructive and exhausting.
Instead he reveals how we can all be winners. Clearer perception is the key to constructive
thinking and more open-minded creativity.
In overturning conventional wisdom, Edward de Bono will help you to become a better thinker
and decision maker.

The classic work about improving creativity
In schools we are taught to meet problems head-on: what Edward de Bono calls 'vertical
thinking'. This works well in simple situations - but we are at a loss when this approach fails.
What then?
Lateral thinking is all about freeing up your imagination. Through a series of special
techniques, in groups or working alone, Edward de Bono shows how to stimulate the mind in
new and exciting ways.
Soon you will be looking at problems from a variety of angles and offering up solutions that are
as ingenious as they are effective. You will become much more productive and a formidable
thinker in your own right.
'If more bankers and traders had read Lateral Thinking and applied the ideas of Edward de
Bono to their own narrow definitions of risk, reward and human expectations, I suspect we
would be in much better shape than we are.' Sir Richard Branson

The Genius of Birds
Ackerman, Jennifer
$40.00 (Royal Pb 230x152 Mm) Scribe Publications 352pp

For decades, people have written off birds as largely witless, driven by instinct and
capable of only the simplest mental processes. But this just isn't true.
In The Genius of Birds, popular science writer Jennifer Ackerman presents the latest research
on bird intelligence and reveals that birds are much, much smarter than we ever supposed. Bird
brains, it turns out, are mostly made of sophisticated information processing systems that work
in much the same way as our own cerebral cortices. Whether it's making complex navigations,
singing in regional accents, or joking around with humans, birds are capable of high-level
abstract thinking, problem-solving, remembering, learning by example, recognising faces, and
even conversing in a meaningful way — all with brains so tiny each would fit inside a walnut.
In this entertaining book, Ackerman explores the view of birds as 'thinkers', capable of being
cunning, playful, witty, greedy, cranky, joyful, and competitive. Bringing together the latest
science from lab and field, she reveals the intelligent bird behaviour that we can see in our own
backyards, at birdfeeders, in parks, in city streets, and in country skies, if only we care to look.
And in doing so, she reveals what a bird's intelligence may have to say about our own.
Lyrical and informative, The Genius of Birds is written in the spirit of Peter Matthiessen — and
is packed with fascinating science that will appeal to bird lovers, nature enthusiasts, and anyone
interested in the brain and animal behaviour.

The Most Good You Can Do: How Effective Altruism Is Changing
Ideas aboutLiving Ethically
Singer, Peter
$30.00 (B Fmt 198x129 Mm / /lge Crown 8vo) Text 256pp
27 April 2016 9781925240986 Carton Qty: 1
Internationally renowned philosopher Peter Singer presents a challenging new movement in the
search for an ethical life, one that has emerged from his work on some of the world's most
pressing problems.
Effective altruism requires a rigorously unsentimental view of charitable giving: a substantial
proportion of our money, and time, should be donated to the organisations that will do the most
good with those resources, rather than those that tug the heartstrings.
Singer introduces us to an array of remarkable people who are restructuring their lives in
accordance with these ideas, and shows how, paradoxically, effective altruism often leads to
profound personal fulfilment.
'Singer makes a strong case for a simple idea—that each of us has a tremendous opportunity to
help others with our abilities, time and money. The Most Good You Can Do is an optimistic and
compelling look at the positive impact that giving can have on the world.' Bill and Melinda
Gates
The Future of the Catholic Church with Pope Francis
Wills, Gary
$37.00 (Misc P/B) Penguin 288pp
16 May 2016 9780143107897 Carton
Qty: 24
Pope Francis, the first Jesuit pope and the first from the Americas, offers a challenge to his
church. Can he bring about significant change? Should he?
Garry Wills, the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, argues provocatively that, in fact, the history
of the church throughout is a history of change. In this brilliant and incisive study, Wills
describes the deep and serious changes that have taken place in the church or are in the process
of occurring. These include the change from Latin, the growth and withering of the
ecclesiastical monarchy, the abandonment of biblical literalism, the assertion and nonassertion
of infallibility, and the erosion of church patriarchy. In such developments we see the living
church adapting itself to the new historical circumstances.
As Wills contends, it is only by examining the history of the church that we can understand
Pope Francis's and the church's challenges.
Praise for The Future of the Catholic Church with Pope Francis:
'A lively exercise in church history—history intended to orient us in the here and now. It is
addressed not only to Catholics but to the entire church as `the People of God,' . . . and to
anyone else—practicing another religion or emphatically not—who is curious to learn how one
of our foremost historians and public intellectuals understands his faith.' The Chicago Tribune
'The church, Wills argues, may act like it never changes. But in the pages of this book, he
shows us that it can . . . Wills's historical chops are on vivid display in his new title: he can zip
from the church's distortion of the stories of early martyrs to contemporary battles over the use
of Latin in liturgy . . . He writes for a wide audience of skeptics, doubters, and questioners.' The
Guardian
'We are two years into a new papal era . . . [Francis] is unsettling the church—in order to set it
aright. Garry Wills's new book is a valuable compass for this new terrain.' The Washington
Post
'Wills thinks deeply, and then goes public with his thoughts. Not a mission for the faint of heart,
especially when it comes to the Roman Catholic Church. Wills is both a lifelong member of the
church, and one of its fiercest critics. His current preoccupation is with Pope Francis . . . Wills
has high hopes for the new pope's ability to shine a light into the dark corners of the church, but
he's under no illusion that it will be easy . . . This book is not so much about Pope Francis as an
informed look at the Catholic Church and the challenges he faces. Whether you are religious or
not, it's a subject worth paying attention to.' The Seattle Times
'Wills ranges widely through the Catholic past . . . [his book] provides a comprehensive . . . and
eye-opening account of a pivotal period in recent American social history.' The Los Angeles
Review of Books
'Wills turns his sword on certain beliefs, some of which have been reformed, but whose
influence lingers in the dark corners of chanceries . . . Wills speaks not from left field, but from
inside the church, a regular Massgoer with a devotion to the rosary.' National Catholic
Reporter
'Wills discusses the reforms that Francis, the world's first Jesuit pope and the first from the
Americas, has implemented but also places them in a larger context of a church that has
undergone far more change over the past 2,000 years than many might realize.' The Austin
American Statesman

Horrible Words: A Guide to the Misuse of English
Gowers, Rebecca
$37.00 (B Fmt H/B 206x133mm) Particular Books 256pp
16 May 2016 9781846148514 Carton Qty: 1
Nothing enflames the language gripers like a misplaced disinterested, an illogical irregardless,
a hideous operationalisation. To a purist these are 'howlers' and 'non-words', fit only for scorn.
But in their rush to condemn such terms, are the nay-sayers missing something?
In this provocative and hugely entertaining book, Rebecca Gowers throws light on a vast array
of horrible words, and shows how the diktats of the pedants are repeatedly based on
misinformation, false reasoning and straight-up snobbery.
The result is a brilliant work of history, a surreptitious introduction to linguistics, and a
mischievous salute to the misusers of the language. It is also a bold manifesto that asserts our
common rights over English, even as it questions the true nature of style.

How do you rid the Earth of seven billion humans? Rid the humans of their humanity.
Cassie Sullivan and her companions lived through the Others' four waves of destruction. Now,
with the human race nearly exterminated and the 5th Wave rolling across the landscape, they
face a choice: brace for winter and hope for Evan Walker's return, or set out in search of other
survivors before the enemy closes in. Because the next attack is more than possible – it's
inevitable.
No one can anticipate the depths to which the Others will sink – nor the heights to which
humanity will rise . . .

Julianna Margulies pays tribute to her late father by bringing his manuscript to life.
Saturdays at the zoo with their father always end the same way for Ariel, Miranda, and Jane: he
offers them a treat, they choose instead to buy food for the animals. On this particular Saturday,
a mysterious balloon man gives them a small reward for their kindness—one balloon each (a
blue one for Ariel, a red one for Miranda, and a yellow one for Jane), to be tied to their
bedposts that night. Soon they find that their simple acts and the balloon man's simple reward
bring them more magic than they could ever have imagined.
Julianna Margulies found the manuscript for Three Magic Balloons among her father's papers
after his death, and worked closely with her editor to adapt it for a picture book. She presents it
now in his loving memory.

Fritz was not beautiful. He didn't have a braided mane or a glossy coat. He couldn't prance with
long, graceful strides like the elegant horses who carried lords and lovely ladies to the city—a
city that allowed only the most beautiful horses within its walls. The citizens laughed at the
short-legged pony's attempts to be like their own horses.
But Fritz was dependable and hard-working. He proved to the citizens that there are things
more important than being beautiful. He earned a special place for himself in the walled city
just as he'll earn a special place in every reader's heart.
Jan Brett's full-color artwork sparkles in intricate detail across every page of this exceptional
picture book about Fritz, a sure-footed pony who finally gets the chance to shine in his own

Caldecott Honor winner Rachel Isadora's sweet and simple introduction to the five senses is
perfect for the youngest children, who will recognize themselves in charming vignettes
portraying a wide range of childhood activities. Hearing, smelling, seeing, touching, tasting–our
five senses allow us to experience the world in so many ways!
With our ears we hear the birds sing; with our nose we smell the stinky cheese; with our eyes
we see the moon and stars (and sometimes glasses help us see even better!); with our skin we
feel the rain (and learn not to touch the hot stove!); and with our tongue we can taste our
favorite foods. Isadora's lively art reveals the power and delight of each sense.
'A tribute to the five senses that will resonate with young readers . . . An ethnically diverse
group of young children tell readers what they sense—or don't—in simple declarative sentences
that are sometimes embellished by the kids' thoughts . . . Children of most skin and hair colors
will find at least one face like their own in these pages . . . A great read-aloud, an easy read for
beginning readers, and a model for student books.' Kirkus Reviews, starred review
'Isadora's book about the five senses is aimed perfectly at another sense—kids' sense of humor .
. . Small vignettes of children exploring their world, both indoors and out . . . Interjections
throughout, printed in italics, add read-aloud pleasure . . . Delicate ink and watercolor
illustrations on white backgrounds nicely elicit a young child's point of view . . . Be sure to
have a jar of baby dills on hand for this one.' The Horn Book, starred review
'Simplicity is the defining note of Isadora's inviting introduction to the senses . . . Drawing from
everyday experiences in a child's life, Isadora pays tribute to the senses, as well as to the natural
world, friends, family, food, pets, curiosity, and discovery . . . Isadora's book brims with
teachable moments, yet it's her expressive ink and watercolor vignettes that steal the
spotlight.' Publishers Weekly
'Isadora's simple ink drawings, brightened with watercolors, have an unpretentious charm . . .
The clean, white pages provide spacious settings for the characters, whose actions, reactions,
and observations will intrigue young kids. Well designed for raising awareness of the senses,
this is fine for reading aloud in a group setting and particularly effective one-on-one.' Booklist

Phaet Theta is a fugitive.
Hiding in plain sight with her friend Wes's family on the drowned planet Earth, Phaet discovers
the rugged beauty of the world her ancestors once called home. All her life, she's been taught to
fear the 'Earthbound,' and their generosity and kindness surprise and touch Phaet.
But when the Lunar Bases attack Wes's isolated village, Phaet's past catches up with her, and
she's forced to choose: stay on Earth and fight beside the boy she's falling for, or stow away on
a Moon-bound ship so she can save her brother and sister from the government that killed their
mother.
This thrilling sequel to Dove Arising plunges readers deeper into this complex and haunting
world where freedom comes at a chilling price.

Phaet Theta has lived her whole life in a colony on the Moon. She's barely spoken since her
father died in an accident nine years ago. She cultivates the plants in Greenhouse 22, lets her
best friend talk for her, and stays off the government's radar.
Then her mother is arrested.
The only way to save her younger siblings from the degrading Shelter is by enlisting in the
Militia, the faceless army that polices the Lunar bases and protects them from attacks by
desperate Earth dwellers. Training is brutal, but it's where Phaet forms an uneasy but
meaningful alliance with the preternaturally accomplished Wes, a fellow outsider.
Rank high, save her siblings, free her mom: that's the plan. Until Phaet's logically ordered
world begins to crumble . . .
Suspenseful, intelligent, and hauntingly prescient, Dove Arising stands on the shoulders of our

Deep in the Kalahari Desert, a Corpus lab protects a dangerous secret . . . But what happens
when that secret takes on a life of its own?
When an educational safari goes wrong, five teens find themselves stranded in the Kalahari
Desert without a guide. It's up to Sarah, the daughter of zoologists, to keep them alive and lead
them to safety, calling on survival know-how from years of growing up in remote and exotic
locales. Battling dehydration, starvation and the pangs of first love, she does her best to hold it
together, even as their circumstances grow increasingly desperate.
But soon a terrifying encounter makes Sarah question everything she's ever known about the
natural world. A silver lion, as though made of mercury, makes a vicious, unprovoked attack on
the group. After a narrow escape, they uncover the chilling truth behind the lion's silver sheen:
a highly contagious and deadly virus that threatens to ravage the entire area—and eliminate life
as they know it.
In this breathtaking new novel by the acclaimed author of Origin and Vitro, Sarah and the
others must not only outrun the virus, but its creators, who will stop at nothing to wipe every
trace of it.

themes of her first novel, Origin (2012). The science-fiction elements and setting
evoke Jurassic Park's themes of human meddling in nature, while touches of teen angst and
love keep the book realistic and broaden the appeal.' Booklist
'Khoury keeps the tension throughout with life-threatening moments and narrow escapes…a
true adventure story in an unusual setting.' School Library Connection Reviews
'A blend of survival/adventure, sci-fi, and first love, Kalahari is grounded in the resourceful
courage of a girl raised in the African bush. Thrilling, unpredictable, irresistible . . . six
teenagers in dire straits, and the suspense never lets up. Readers will flock to Jessica Khoury's
masterful prose and storytelling.' Will Hobbs, award-winning author of Far
North and Never Say Die

It's early 1945 and a group of people trek across Germany, bound together by their desperation
to reach the ship that can take them away from the war-ravaged land. Four young people, each
haunted by their own dark secret, narrate their unforgettable stories. Fans of The Book Thief or
Helen Dunmore's The Siege will be totally absorbed.
This inspirational novel is based on a true story from the Second World War. When the German
ship the Wilhelm Gustloff was sunk in port in early 1945 it had over 9000 civilian refugees,
including children, on board. Nearly all were drowned. Ruta Sepetys, acclaimed author
of Between Shades of Grey, brilliantly imagines their story.

Animals eat animals in this informative exposé of three animal food chains
Three of the longest food chains of the animal kingdom are depicted in three accordion-foldout
volumes, complete with stunning dimensional art and sparse read-aloud text.
Young children will experience the factual, specific, and possibly surprising information via
bright visuals, pleasingly repetitive text, and a physical folding-out of the chain itself. The food
chains are themed as terrestrial, avian, and aquatic, respectively, fully researched and vetted by
a professional.
The information effectively expands upon the familiar experience of eating by portraying the
parallel experience within the animal kingdom; it also creates a basis upon which to discuss the
carnivorous tendencies of humans!

colored for visual distinction at sea, stands for a letter as well as a phrase relevant to seafaring.

messages of their own!
