Named one of the "Best books of 2024: Business" by the Financial TimesAn indispensable guide to help companies navigate the new era of ethical challenges and risks in a volatile global landscape.Today''s headlines teem with employee unrest over racial injustice, communities infuriated by corporate environmental impacts, staff anxiety over surveillance, public outrage over corruption in business, and discoveries of child labor in supply chains. We''ve traveled far and fast from the old world of business ethics, where black-and-white concerns about bribery and fraud could be addressed via rules and processes. Simply maximizing shareholder value while not breaking the law is no longer a tenable approach, but we''ve never been so confused about what it means to do the right thing—and why it''s so important.In this eye-opening, essential book, NYU Stern ethics professor Alison Taylor argues that amid stakeholder demands and transparency pressures, we can no longer treat ethics as merely a legal and reputational defense mechanism. Leaders at Davos and the Business Roundtable have called for a new corporate responsibility paradigm, but organizations struggle to implement these ideas in an atmosphere of heightened expectations and intense suspicion. Offering vivid stories and examples from years working in anti-corruption and advising companies on ethics, Taylor brings this complex, risky environment alive to provide a blueprint for how leaders can rethink and reshape their practices. How can CEOs cut through the noise to set robust environmental and social priorities? When should they speak out on contentious social and political issues—and how? What does it really take to build a healthy organizational culture? How are we to approach corporate values when society itself is so divided?Higher Ground shows leaders how business can navigate this messy paradigm shift, build trust, and achieve long-term strategic advantage in a turbulent world.

Pairing in-depth journalism with historical perspectives, this book makes a compelling case for a natural solution to the growing problem of flooding.  With Seek Higher Ground, environmental writer and former land-use planner Tim Palmer explores the legacy of flooding in America, taking a fresh look at the emerging climatic, economic, and ecological realities of our rivers and communities. Global warming is forecast to sharply intensify flooding, and this book urges that we reduce future damage in the most effective, efficient, and equitable ways possible.  Through historical narrative, rigorous reporting, and decades of vivid personal experience, Palmer details how our society’s approach to flood control has been infamously inadequate and chronically counterproductive. He builds a powerful argument for both the protection of floodplain open space and for programs that help people voluntarily relocate their homes away from high-water hazards. Only by recognizing the indomitable forces of nature—and adapting to them—can we thrive in the challenging climate to come. Â

The third volume of Alison Weir's magisterial history of the queens of medieval EnglandMedieval queens were seen as mere dynastic trophies, yet many of the Plantagenet queens of the High Middle Ages dramatically broke away from the restrictions imposed on their sex, as Alison Weir shows in this gripping group biography of England's fourteenth-century consorts.Using personal letters and wonderfully vivid sources, Alison Weir evokes the lives of five remarkable queens: Marguerite of France, Isabella of France, Philippa of Hainault, Anne of Bohemia and Isabella of Valois.The turbulent, brutal Age of Chivalry witnessed the Black Death, the Peasants' Revolt, the Hundred Years War against France and savage baronial wars against the monarchy in which these queens were passionately involved. Queens of the Age of Chivalry brilliantly recreates this truly dramatic period of history through the lives of five extraordinary women.

Triumph and tragedy, love and loss, murder and malice in the lives of five fifteenth-century queens, from 'the queen of history writing' (Sunday Express)The fifteenth century was a turbulent age: the Hundred Years War between England and France, and the Wars of the Roses dominated the lives of people both inside and out of the royal courts. Joan of Navarre, Katherine of Valois, Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Wydeville and Anne Neville were the queens who stood by England's sovereigns, caught up in wars that changed the course of their lives, and the course of history. They were also formidable women who defied the limitations of their times, often living out the brutal consequences of their determination. Alison Weir uncovers their stories in this final volume of her ground-breaking series on the queens of medieval England. Queens at War is a stunning culmination of research by a historian at the full extent of her powers and gripping account of five women on the throne. * PRAISE FOR ALISON WEIR:‘A meticulous scholar’ New York Times‘She is an excellent storyteller: descriptions are vivid and her knowledge of the sources is extensive’ Spectator‘Weir’s hugely popular history books are as gripping as novels’ The Times‘[Weir] writes in a pacy, vivid style, engaging the heart as well as the mind’ Independent‘Alison Weir has the rare gift of being able to bring history vividly to life’ Choice

"Depend upon it, God''s work done in God''s way will never lack God''s supplies." - Hudson Taylor"Hudson Taylor was ...one of the greatest missionaries of all time, and... one of the four or five most influential foreigners who came to China in the nineteenth century for any purpose..." - Kenneth Scott Latourette (Author, A History of the Expansion of Christianity)"No other missionary since the Apostle Paul has had a wider vision and has carried out a more systematized plan of evangelizing a broad geographical area than Hudson Taylor." - Ruth Tucker (author of From Jerusalem to Irian Jaya: A Biographical History of Christian Missions.)A single sentence in 1869 transformed Hudson Taylor''s life and consequently the lives of hundreds of people in England and thousands of Chinese converts. After his experience he exclaimed "Oh, Mr Judd, God has made me a new man! God has made me a new man!"Hudson Taylor''s spiritual secret was the realization of what it meant to be in union with Christ: daily, even hourly, resting in his presence provided seemingly inexhaustible joy, peace, and energy. These were obvious to those who observed him in his strenuous life of prodigious missionary work. His colleague Charles Judd recorded,"He was a joyous man now, a bright happy Christian. He had been a toiling, burdened one before, with latterly not much rest of soul. ... Whenever he spoke in meetings after that, a new power seemed to flow from him, and in the practical things of life, a new peace possessed him. Troubles did not worry him as before. He cast everything on God in a new way... Instead of working late at night, he began to go to bed earlier, rising at 5 A.M. to give time to Bible study and prayer.H. B. Macartney observes,"Here was the real thing ... a man almost sixty years of age, bearing tremendous burdens, yet absolutely calm and untroubled."His phenomenal energy is attested to by the growth of the China Inland Mission, which he founded. At the time of his death, it had 825 missionaries in over 300 mission stations spread over all eighteen provinces of China. Their converts accounted for a quarter of all Christians in China. Hudson Taylor never solicited funds, and he suffered from personal and family ill-health, as well as frequent violence towards Christians in China.While many other Christians, both famous and unknown, have discovered the secret of a changed life, this book is perhaps the best exposition of a life-changing Christian epiphany, and the resulting transformation. Dr. and Mrs. Howard Taylor, Hudson Taylor''s son and daughter-in-law, both of whom lived and worked with Hudson Taylor, have carefully pieced together the story from personal correspondence from and about Hudson Taylor. Numerous Christians, such as Jack Miller, founder of World Harvest Mission, continue to credit this book with transforming their lives far beyond what they had imagined possible. Hudson Taylor''s Spiritual Secret is essential reading for any Christian wishing to deepen their faith.About the Authors: Dr. Frederick Howard Taylor was Hudson Taylor''s son. He was a medical doctor as well as a missionary to China. His wife Geraldine Taylor (Mrs. Howard Taylor) was missionary, but she also had a love of writing, and wrote numerous biographies of missionaries, including one of "Borden of Yale."

“Gorgeous. . . Expertly guides you back to your deepest, truest self.” —Jonathan Van Ness, New York Times bestselling authorIntuitive Life and Leadership Coach Mory Fontanez offers a transformative vision: when we align with our intuition, we unlock not only personal fulfillment but also the power to create meaningful impact in the world. By attuning to this profound inner wisdom, we are free to live authentically, unapologetically, and in alignment with our true purpose. Yet, for many of us, the connection to our intuition has been severed. Overwhelmed by societal expectations and external pressures, we’ve lost touch with our Higher Self—the source of infinite potential, love, and wisdom that resides within us. As an expert crisis manager, Mory Fontanez has guided Fortune 500 leaders and public figures through high-stakes crises, including public scandals and major organizational change. Her work with executives, celebrities, and teams has shown how intuitive decision-making is essential for navigating chaos, rebuilding trust, and leading with clarity. Higher Self teaches readers how to tap into this same inner wisdom, breaking free from reactivity and fear to make grounded, authentic choices, even in the most turbulent times. In a world increasingly defined by division, the need to reconnect with this inner guide has never been greater. Higher Self offers a compelling pathway back to our intuitive essence. Drawing from years of experience coaching influential leaders and from her own personal journey, Mory demystifies intuition, breaking it down into accessible, actionable steps. Through powerful client stories, thought-provoking insights, and practical guidance, she leads readers on a journey of self-discovery and healing, empowering them to trust and nurture their Higher Self. Mory’s work reveals a profound truth: when we reconnect with the highest version of ourselves, we begin to heal the wounds of shame and rejection, transcend limiting beliefs, and thrive in ways we never imagined. This voice within—the one guiding us with clarity and certainty—holds the key to living in alignment with our own highest good and the greater good of others. Higher Self is not just a book; it is a call to reclaim the wisdom, power, and purpose that have always been yours.
