JFK AND THE REAGAN REVOLUTION: A Secret History of American Prosperity
April 2016
Who invented supply-side economics—the idea that cutting tax rates can result in more growth, more prosperity
at all income levels, and even more tax revenue? Most would credit the economic team that advised Ronald
Reagan, but in fact, the first president who embraced it was one of the biggest icons of the Democratic Party, John
F. Kennedy. Liberals hate the idea that JFK successfully pioneered an economic principle that has become a core
part of the GOP platform, and conservatives hate to admit that their hero Reagan grabbed one of his most
successful policies not merely from a Democrat, but from a Kennedy. This is an eye-opening look at one of the
most important yet least understood episodes in American economic history. Lawrence Kudlow is CNBC’s Senior
Contributor. Brian Domitrovic is the author of Econoclasts.

IF YOU’RE SO SMART, WHY AREN’T YOU HAPPY?
April 2016
Those who achieve the highest levels of career success often appear to be the most dissatisfied in life. The very
things that make smart people smart—their intellect, their drive, and their knowledge—get in the way of their
happiness. In other words, smart people aren’t unhappy despite their smartness, but because of it. Here Raj
Raghunathan identifies the misconceptions that smart people have about their happiness and the elements of
their personalities that distract them the most from achieving it. Then he clears a path to building the habits and
attitudes that enhance happiness in both the short- and long-term. Raghunathan is a professor of marketing at the

BITCOINIZATION
April 2016
Bitcoinization explores the next big shift that will change the way we live online. Blockchain technology, the
platform that powers bitcoin, permanently stores information without an intermediary like a bank or governing
body. While keeping the user’s information anonymous, the blockchain stores all transactions made. That means
your information is secure, but all activity is completely incorruptible—reconciled by mass collaboration and stored
in code on a digital ledger. The blockchain ensures integrity, with transparency and trust built into the system
itself. The coming Internet of Everything will be accompanied by a ledger of everything—a truly open global
platform that fundamentally changes what we can do online, how we can do it, and who can participate. Don
Tapscott is the bestselling author of Wikinomics and others. Alex Tapscott is a financial analyst.

TEAM OF TEAMS: New Rules for Engagement in a Complex World
May 2015
When General Stanley McChrystal took the helm of the Joint Special Operations Task Force in
2004, the US was losing the war against Al Qaeda in Iraq. Despite superior resources and
technology, America’s conventional military tactics were failing against a decentralized enemy
that could strike quickly and ruthlessly. McChrystal and his colleagues discarded a century of
conventional wisdom and turned the task force into a transparent and decentralized “team of
teams”—faster, flatter, more flexible—that could beat back Al Qaeda. The challenges faced in Iraq are relevant to
countless organizations. To adapt to a rapidly changing world, give small groups the freedom to experiment while
driving everyone to share what they learn across the entire organization.

THE IGNORANT MAESTRO: How Great Leaders Inspire Unpredictable Brilliance
Itay Talgam observes the leadership styles of six great conductors: Muti, Toscanini, Strauss,
Karajan, Kleiber, and Bernstein. He then presents readers with six faces of leadership based on
those conductors’ styles. These are approaches that anyone can recognize and draw upon in
daily life and work: Commander, Father Figure, Bureaucrat, Guru, Dancer, and Meaning
Maker. The Ignorant Maestro shows readers how these approaches work but also points out
their limitations. Filled with engaging stories from Talgam’s career as conductor, consultant,
speaker, and teacher, The Ignorant Maestro ultimately challenges readers to answer the question: What kind of
leader are you, and (more importantly) what kind of leader do you want to be?

CHINA’S DISRUPTORS: How Alibaba, Xiaomi, Tencent, and Other Companies are Changing
the Rules of Business
This is the first book to tell the story of China’s rapidly emerging entrepreneurs. They have

behind. Edward Tse draws on years of research, along with his personal relationships with
many of these entrepreneurs including Haier’s Zhang Ruimin, Alibaba’s Jack Ma, Broad’s Zhang
Yue, and Taikang’s Chen Dongsheng. Edward Tse is the author of The China Strategy. He lives in Hong Kong.

I KNOW HOW SHE DOES IT: How Successful Women Make the Most of Their Time
Balancing work and family life is a constant struggle, especially for mothers with ambitious
career goals. Laura Vanderkam comes at the “having it all” debate by asking a very practical
question. Given that we all have the same 168 hours every week, what’s the best way for busy
women, especially working moms, to use them? Vanderkam shares the time-logs of high
profile moms who make at least six figures and still manage to make time for their families and
friends, their health and fitness needs, and the leisure activities they love. Vanderkam is the
author of the bestselling What the Most Successful People Do Before Breakfast and 168 Hours.

UNTITLED ON THE NEUROSCIENCE OF WEIGHT LOSS
Jan. 2016
Based on her viral TED Talk, neuroscientist and science writer Sandra Aamodt explains here how the latest
research contradicts what we think we know about dieting and weight loss. By harnessing her knowledge of brain
science and biology, Aamodt successfully stabilized her own weight at a healthy level and now enjoys a better
relationship with food. Combining deep research and brutal candor about her experiences, Aamodt gives us
several clues into the obesity epidemic, including new findings about gut bacteria, why bariatric surgery works, and
what a real alternative to dieting and weight cycling looks like. Sandra Aamodt is the coauthor of Welcome to Your
Brain and Welcome to Your Child’s Brain.

Camarata, Stephen
THE INTUITIVE PARENT: Why the Best Thing for Your Child Is You
Aug. 2015
Stephen Camarata draws on academic literature, case studies, and experiences with his own
patients and children to argue for a return to instinct-driven parenting. Developmental
milestones are misleading. Earlier is not necessarily better. And the best things you can do to
make sure your kid grows up functional are almost always low-cost, routine activities such as
playing “peek-a-boo,” reading books aloud, talking to them, feeding them, and otherwise
engaging in meeting their everyday needs. This is the true “magic” that ultimately wires a
child’s brain and helps them to develop into intelligent, confident, curious, and talented adults. Camarata aims to
debunk myths about children’s health and mental development and to inoculate parents and empower them to
recognize irrational fears and incredible claims that increase worry, steal their cash, and generally diminish the
enjoyment they would normally derive from parenting. Camarata is a Professor in the Department of Psychiatry
and a Professor of Hearing and Speech Sciences at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine

Casarett, David
STONED: A Doctor’s Case for Medical Marijuana
July 2015
Does medical marijuana really work? Or does it just make people feel good? In Stoned, David
Casarett, a highly respected researcher and professor of medicine, sets out to find answers
firsthand. He visits dispensaries in California and Colorado (and finds out just how easy it is to
get access to legal marijuana); he smears mysterious marijuana paste on his legs while
trekking the mountains of Nepal; he samples pot wine and learns about how vaporizers work;
and he convinces an artisanal hash-maker to teach him to make the purest kind of hash,
known as “shatter.” As Casarett interacts with the people who grow, prescribe, sell, and use marijuana, he offers a
light-hearted and much-needed medical practitioner’s perspective on what marijuana is really good for. Casarett is
the author of Shocked and Last Acts.

COMBAT-READY KITCHEN: How the US Military Shapes the Way You Eat
Aug. 2015
You probably don’t realize that your supermarket is filled with foods that have a military origin:
canned goods, packaged deli meats, TV dinners, cling wrap, energy bars… The list is almost
endless. In fact, there’s a watered-down combat ration lurking in practically everything we buy.
Here, food writer Anastacia Marx de Salcedo shows how the Department of Defense Combat
Feeding Directorate plans, funds, and spreads the food science that enables it to produce
cheap, imperishable rations. It works with an immense network of university, government, and
industry collaborators, and has done so since WWII. It’s a good deal for both sides: The conglomerates get
exclusive patents or a head start on the next breakthrough technology; the Army ensures that it has commercial
suppliers if it ever needs to manufacture millions of rations. And for us consumers, who eat this food originally
designed for soldiers on the battlefield? We’re the guinea pigs in a giant public health experiment, one in which
science and technology, at the beck of the military, have taken over our kitchens.

THE DISTRACTED MIND: How Technology Rewires Your Brain
Spring 2016
Psychologist Larry Rosen and neuroscientist Adam Gazzaley explore our highly engaging, but also extremely
distracting, world of technology and how it affects our brains. They offer surprising new research on how excess
technology actually has a permanent effect on where and how long our brains direct attention to a single thought.
They show how failure to successfully navigate our modern technological environment has a detrimental impact
on safety, cognition, education, the workplace, and our relationships. They provide examples of people facing their
own distracted minds, from managers who worry about the lack of productivity from employees to anyone who
has reached for a smartphone in the middle of a conversation. Through a unique combination of new research, The
Distracted Mind journeys into how and why people are unable to avoid interruptions and distractions, and it offers
solid strategies for regaining the ability to focus. Rosen is the author of iDisorder. Gazzaley is the head of the
Cognitive Neuroscience Research Lab at the University of California, San Francisco.
