My Body - Emily Ratajkowski
*THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* - November 2021A deeply honest investigation of what it means to be a woman and a commodity from Emily Ratajkowski, the archetypal, multi-hyphenate celebrity of our time._______________ This is the book for every woman trying to place their body on the map of consumption vs control, and every woman who wants to better understand her impulses. It left me much changed - Lena Dunham I read these pages, breathless with recognition, and the thrill of reading a new voice telling it like it is - Dani Shapiro Emily Ratajkowski s first essay collection needs to be read by everyone [...] both page-turning and moving as hell - Amy Schumer A slow, complicated indictment of a profession and the people who propel it [...] it will deliver a more nuanced and introspective rendering of her interior than those who come to it with those surface interests might expect - Vogue Dazzling - Observer Ratajkowski brings nuanced insight to questions about empowerment versus commodification of women s bodies and sexuality. Blending cultural criticism and personal stories, My Body is smart and powerful - Time Magazine Raw, nuanced and beautifully written. A moving and enlightening experience to join a woman openly exploring such deep parts of her physical self via the written word. A truly impressive debut - Emma Gannon Excellent [...] Ratajkowski writes with curiosity, intellect and acute awareness - Harper s Bazaar Superb [...] it feels revolutionary - Telegraph I admire and envy her artistry - Guardian_______________Emily Ratajkowski is an acclaimed model and actress, an engaged political progressive, a formidable entrepreneur, a global social media phenomenon, and now, a writer. Rocketing to world fame at age twenty-one, Ratajkowski sparked both praise and furor with the provocative display of her body as an unapologetic statement of feminist empowerment. The subsequent evolution in her thinking about our culture s commodification of women is the subject of this book.My Body is a profoundly personal exploration of feminism, sexuality, and power, of men s treatment of women and women s rationalizations for accepting that treatment. These essays chronicle moments from Ratajkowski s life while investigating the culture s fetishization of girls and female beauty, its obsession with and contempt for women s sexuality, the perverse dynamics of the fashion and film industries, and the grey area between consent and abuse.Nuanced, unflinching, and incisive, My Body marks the debut of a fierce writer brimming with courage and intelligence.

For years, we’ve followed the traditional ketogenic diet formula: high fat, moderate protein, and very low carbs. And it worked—individuals saw the benefits of shifting from being sugar burners to fat burners. However, new science is showing that a low carbohydrate diet with higher protein ratios burns more stored fat and preserves and builds more lean muscle tissue. Recent research also suggests that a large percentage of adults are not consuming enough protein to maintain healthy bodies into middle age and beyond. And numerous experts agree that the RDA or protein for adults over age 50 is too low. High protein, low-carb diets are no longer the purview of body builders and athletes. It is a vital requirement for our health and longevity.The Protein Advantage Cookbook provides a delicious path to health with recipes like:Sheet Pan OmeletLoaded Breakfast CasseroleProtein BagelsChocolate DonutsTurkey Chili VerdeKorean Beef and BroccoliSpinach Feta Chicken BurgersLasagna Stuffed Zucchini BoatsPork Tenderloin with Dijon Cream SauceEasy Protein Chocolate MoussePeanut Butter BarsProtein CheesecakeStart your high-protein, low-carb journey to optimum health with this game-changing guide.

Roger Daltrey: Thanks a lot Mr Kibblewhite, The Sunday Times Bestseller - Roger Daltrey
Before the sixties, you were a child and then you were a man. You went to school and then you went to work. That changed. Our generation changed it. Roger Daltrey is the voice of a generation, and this is his story. This is the story of his tempestuous school days and his expulsion, age 15, thanks to his authoritarian headmaster, Mr Kibblewhite. That could have been where the story ended, as the life of a factory worker beckoned, but then came rock and roll. Making his first guitar from factory off-cuts, Roger formed a band that would become The Who, one of the biggest bands on the planet. This is the story of My Generation, Tommy and Quadrophenia, of smashed guitars, exploding drums, cars in swimming pools, fights, arrests and redecorated hotel rooms, but also how all those post-war kids redefined the rules of youth. This is not just a hilarious and frank account of more than 50 wild years on the road, it is the definitive story of The Who and of the sweeping revolution that was British rock n roll.

The Activator Advantage - Dixon Matthew, Ted McKenna, Karen Freeman, Rory Channer
The groundbreaking approach used by today s best professional service partners to win, retain, and grow client relationships.There is a growing problem in the professional services industry that is often acknowledged but rarely discussed openly: clients—even long-standing ones for whom firms have delivered unquestioned value in the past—are much less loyal to firms and partners than they once were. This dramatic shift in client behavior has rendered traditional approaches to business development not only ineffective but counterproductive.But top performers have figured out a radical new approach that is redefining what it means to be a rainmaker in today’s professional services market.Drawing on a comprehensive, quantitative study of nearly 3,000 partners—spanning law, accounting, consulting, investment banking, executive search, and public relations—The Activator Advantage identifies the five types of partners found across the professional services landscape and shows how only one of them—the Activator—drives consistent growth.Activators deeply embed business development habits into their daily workflow, aggressively leverage their internal and external networks and proactively deliver both business and personal value to clients—all of which not only helps shield them from the vagaries of modern client buying behavior but also lays the groundwork for stickier, longer-lasting relationships.Packed with eye-opening data, counterintuitive insights, and robust case examples—as well as the trademark storytelling abilities of the researchers who produced such business blockbusters as The Challenger Sale, The Effortless Experience, and The JOLT Effect—The Activator Advantage provides the road map for any professional services partner or firm leader looking to chart a path to greater client engagement, internal collaboration, revenue growth, and firm profitability in the new era of client disloyalty.

The Outsider Advantage - Ciera Rogers
From the fashion mogul and entrepreneur behind Babes, an empowering memoir about turning what makes you different into the foundation of your successCiera Rogers is known for being an â œOutsiderâ â ”and she likes it that way. As the founder and CEO of a multi-million-dollar brand that caters to curvy women of all shades, worn by the likes of Kim Kardashian and championed by Beyoncé, Ciera has rallied the very women the fashion industry is designed to ignore around the radical idea that what makes you different is actually your superpower.The Outsider Advantage is for Outsiders like her: the dreamers, doers, and go-getters that society continuously overlooks and underestimates, but who are uniquely equipped to achieve glass-shattering success.In this bold and inspiring memoir, Ciera shares the moments in her life that left the biggest impactâ ”being kidnapped at a young age by her estranged father, running hustles in strip clubs, living in her momâ ™s red Jeep, daring to post her first outfit for sale on Instagram, hitting seven-figures, and buying a homeâ ”and unearths the powerful lessons she has taken away from her past and her unorthodox rise, like how to harness what you already have and how to use your trauma as a motivator. She also speaks to feelings of millennial rage, as on her journey, she came to realize that the American Dream is a lie. But she didnâ ™t allow that to stop her from outmaneuvering the system to finally live the life she wanted.Arguing that what the world calls limitationsâ ”lack of connections, resources, fancy degrees, or even the â œrightâ lookâ ”are actually our biggest competitive advantages, Ciera teaches anyone who has ever been overlooked, ignored or underestimated how to embrace their Outsider status to find unstoppable success.

The NASA Archives. 45th Ed. - Piers Bizony, Andrew Chaikin, Roger Launius
On October 1, 1958, the world s first civilian space agency opened for business as an emergency response to the Soviet Union s launch of Sputnik a year earlier. Within a decade, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, universally known as NASA, had evolved from modest research teams experimenting with small converted rockets into one of the greatest technological and managerial enterprises ever known, capable of sending people to the Moon aboard gigantic rockets and of dispatching robot explorers to Venus, Mars, and worlds far beyond. In spite of occasional, tragic setbacks in NASA s history, the Apollo lunar landing project remains a byword for American ingenuity; the winged space shuttles spearheaded the International Space Station and a dazzling array of astronomical satellites and robotic landers, and Earth observation programs have transformed our understanding of the cosmos and our home world s fragile place within it.Throughout NASA s 60-year history, images have played a central role. Who today is not familiar with the Hubble Space Telescope s mesmerizing views of the universe or the pin-sharp panoramas of Mars from NASA s surface rovers? And who could forget the photographs of the first men walking on the Moon?This compact edition is derived from our XL edition, which was researched in collaboration with NASA, and gathers hundreds of historic photographs and rare concept renderings, scanned and remastered using the latest technology. Texts by science and technology journalist Piers Bizony, former NASA chief historian Roger Launius, and best-selling Apollo historian Andrew Chaikin round out this comprehensive exploration of NASA, from its earliest days to its current development of new space systems for the future.The NASA Archives is more than just a fascinating pictorial history of the U.S. space program. It is also a profound meditation on why we choose to explore space and how we will carry on this grandest of all adventures in the years to come.About the seriesTASCHEN is 40!

The Buy-In Advantage - Dave Garrison
Most leaders would love to get their people to do more than just show up and do only what s asked. They want employees who also bring their best talents, ideas, and enthusiasm to accomplish what s truly important to the organization. Unfortunately, most leaders have never been shown how to create a culture of genuine and sustainable buy-in. As a result, they miss out on the amazing advantages that widespread buy-in can deliver, including easier hiring, lower turnover, smarter strategies, and more consistent execution. Dave Garrison is renowned for helping companies foster a culture of high engagement, even in the face of adversity or rapid expansion. In The Buy-In Advantage, he now offers a practical playbook that will help leaders in any industry or any size company get much better at: Recruiting and retaining the right talent; Tapping the collective genius of their people; Prioritizing the few things that really count, which prevents burnout; Solving problems without drama; And much more. By sharing true stories from companies he s led as a CEO and advised as a strategist, Garrison shows how to implement these strategies without significant cost, extra effort, or disruption to core activities. His approach leads to immediate improvements as well as long-term cultural change. The result is a powerful guide to building teams that get things done, care about outcomes, and solve problems on their own initiative.

The Happiness Advantage - Shawn Achor
Most people want to be successful in life. And of course, everyone wants to be happy. When it comes to the pursuit of success and happiness, most people assume the same formula: if you work hard, you will become successful, and once you become successful, then you ll be happy. The only problem is that a decade of cutting-edge research in the field of positive psychology has proven that this formula is backwards. Success does not beget happiness.Based on the largest study ever conducted on happiness and human potential (a survey conducted by the author of more than 1,600 students), Harvard lecturer Shawn Achor shares seven core principles of positive psychology that each one of us can use to improve our performance, grow our careers, and gain a competitive edge at work. He reveals how happiness actually fuels success and performance, not the other way around. Why? Because when we are happier and more positive we are more engaged, creative, resilient to stress, and productive. The Happiness Advantage will appeal to anyone who wants practical advice on how to become happier and also more successful.

Beacon in the West - Roger Hutchinson
In 1918 Lord Leverhulme bought the island of Lewis with ambitious plans to massively expand its fishing industry and increase its population.In 1923, when his plans had failed, he offered it free of charge to the islanders in two parts. One part, which included impoverished rural areas, was economically unviable. But the other, based around the busy fishing port and administrative centre of Stornoway, was a different matter. In accepting Leverhulmeâ ™s offer, the hardheaded, churchgoing business class of Stornoway took on the responsibility of making the radical slogan â ˜Land for the Peopleâ ™ a reality. It was an unlikely coupling, but it worked to perfection.The 20th century was a tumultuous time for Lewis. Migration and depopulation were exacerbated by two world wars. Such problems could not be addressed in the lottery of private landownership, but in the stable, democratic government of the Stornoway Trust, town and country alike would weather the storms.Roger Hutchinson tells the story of those storms, and of the people who guided their pioneering estate into the relative security and prosperity of the 21st century. In doing so he paints a vivid portrait of a unique landholding experiment, of Highland land struggle and of the island of Lewis itself.

Till the Boys Come Home - Roger Foss
Ever since the signing of the Armistice in 1918, theatre has played an important part in reflecting the experience of the â ˜war to end all warsâ ™. But on the Home Front, what role did those involved with British theatre play during those tumultuous four years and three months? Till the Boys Come Home salutes British theatre in wartime, when theatres became powerful generators for escapism, for stirring patriotism, for sharing experiences of loss and joy â “ and for raising vast amounts of charity money. It brings to life a Britain where theatre-going peaked in popularity, yet became full of the curious contradictions bred by war. Richly illustrated with original programmes, posters and ephemera, author and critic Roger Foss reveals a theatrical powerhouse, where all sections of the profession â “ from grand Shakespearian knights to lowly concert party artistes â “ were doing their bit, both at home and on the front line.

On Civil Disobedience - Henry David Thoreau, Hannah Arendt, Roger Berkowitz
As we grapple with how to respond to emerging threats against democracy, Library of America brings together for the first time two seminal essays about the duties of citizenship and the imperatives of conscience. In Resistance to Civil Government (1849), Henry David Thoreau recounts the story of a night he spent in jail for refusing to pay poll taxes, which he believed supported the Mexican American War and the expansion of slavery. His larger aim was to articulate a view of individual conscience as a force in American politics. No writer has made a more persuasive case for obedience to a higher law. In Civil Disobedience (1970), Hannah Arendt offers a stern rebuttal to Thoreau. For Arendt, Thoreau stands in willful opposition to the public and collective spirit that defines civil disobedience. Only through positive collective action and the promises we make to each other in a civil society can meaningful change occur. This deluxe paperback features an introduction by Roger Berkowitz, Founder and Academic Director of the Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities and Professor of Politics, Philosophy, and Human Rights at Bard College, who reflects on the tradition of civil disobedience and the future of American politics.

Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Art of the Four - Roger Billcliffe
Delve into the world of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his Glasgow School of Art-trained contemporaries who forged a unique and distinct vision in both art and architecture at the end of the Victorian era. The Glasgow Style is the name given to the work of a group of young designers and architects working in Glasgow from 1890–1914. At its centre were four young friends who had trained at Glasgow School of Art; two architects and two artists – Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Herbert MacNair, Margaret Macdonald and Frances Macdonald – who were simply known by their friends and contemporaries as ‘The Four’. Their work was a personal vision in the new international style of the 1890s, Art Nouveau, and is perhaps best known for Mackintosh’s architecture and furniture. But at the root of this new style was a graphic language which all four shared.Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Art of The Four presents the most coherent story to date of this important group, concentrating on the entirety of their artistic imagery and output, far beyond the best known work of the 1890s, and charting the constantly changing relationships between the artists and their work.

Roger Daltrey: Thanks a lot Mr Kibblewhite, My Story
Roger Daltrey is the voice of a generation.That generation was the first to rebel, to step out of the shadows of the Second World War... to invent the concept of the teenager.This is the story from his birth at the height of the Blitz, through tempestuous school days to his expulsion, age 15, for various crimes and misdemeanours within a strict school system. Thanks to Mr Kibblewhite, his authoritarian headmaster, it could all have ended there. The life of a factory worker beckoned.But then came rock and roll. He made his first guitar from factory off-cuts. He formed a band. The band became The Who - Maximum R B - and, by luck and by sheer bloody-mindedness, Roger Daltrey became the frontman of one of the biggest rock bands on the planet.This is the story of My Generation, Tommy and Quadrophenia, of smashed guitars, exploding drums, cars in swimming pools, fights, arrests and redecorated hotel rooms.But it is also the story of how that post-war generation redefined the rules of youth. Out of that, the modern music industry was born - and it wasn t an easy birth. Money, drugs and youthful exuberance were a dangerous mix. This is as much a story of survival as it is of success.Four years in the making, this is the first time Roger Daltrey has told his story. It is not just his own hilarious and frank account of more than 50 wild years on the road. It is the definitive story of The Who and of the sweeping revolution that was British rock n roll.
