Scamming costs the worldwide economy billions each year.Worse, it hits ordinary people where it hurts the most: whether the life-savings of the vulnerable elderly taken over the phone, young people #39;s hard-earned cash, whipped away by clicking the wrong online link, or a lump sum taken when you are caught momentarily unaware – we are all vulnerable. There is a scam for everyone, and if you haven’t been stung yet, it’s only because until now no one has used the right approach.Nick Stapleton is the presenter on the BBC’s Scam Interceptors, an award-winning TV series that teaches viewers how to beat scammers, and has become a guru in the ways of fraud, theft and con-artistry. In this book, the first of its kind, he has put together a fail-safe handbook covering all known scams, including advice on how to protect yourself and vulnerable loved ones, what to do if you think you’ve been scammed and how to go about reclaiming stolen money.

What do you want to be when you grow up? It s a familiar question we re all asked as kids. While seemingly harmless, the question has unintended consequences. It can make you feel like you need to choose one job, one passion, one thing to be about. Guess what? You don t. Having a lot of different interests, projects and curiosities doesn t make you a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. Your endless curiosity doesn t mean you are broken or flaky. What you are is a multipotentialite: someone with many interests and creative pursuits. And that is actually your biggest strength.How to Be Everything helps you channel your diverse passions and skills to work for you. Based on her popular TED talk, Why some of us don t have one true calling , Emilie Wapnick flips the script on conventional career advice. Instead of suggesting that you specialize, choose a niche or accumulate 10,000 hours of practice in a single area, Wapnick provides a practical framework for building a sustainable life around ALL of your passions.You ll discover:• Why your multipotentiality is your biggest strength, especially in today s uncertain job market.• How to make a living and structure your work if you have many skills and interests.• How to focus on multiple projects and make progress on all of them.• How to handle common insecurities such as the fear of not being the best, the guilt associated with losing interest in something you used to love and the challenge of explaining what you do to others. Not fitting neatly into a box can be a beautiful thing. How to Be Everything teaches you how to design a life, at any age and stage of your career, that allows you to be fully you, and find the kind of work you ll love.

â ˜A brilliant and challenging bookâ ™ GORDON BROWNFrom the founder of Britainâ ™s leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies â “ and how to go about it.If youâ ™re shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, youâ ™re not alone.Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain â “ with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the threat of Reform UK â “ has been far from immune from far-right politics.From HOPE not hateâ ™s pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the â ˜manosphereâ ™ and the issues in Netflix s Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of â ˜race scienceâ ™ and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britainâ ™s deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism.His conclusions â “ which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners â “ suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples â “ from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford â “ of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate.

A provocative debunking of accepted economic wisdom which offers a new pathway to a sustainable, survivable economy.Confronted by the devastating trends of the early twenty-first century - widening inequality, environmental destruction, and millions of workers stuck in precarious, soul destroying work - many economists, politicians and business leaders argue that there is no alternative. They cling to the dogmas that got us in this mess in the first place: private markets are more efficient than public ones; investment capital always flows where it is needed; inequality is an inevitable side effect of economic growth; people only behave well with the right incentives.But a growing number of academic economists, business owners, policy entrepreneurs, and ordinary people are rejecting these myths and reshaping economies to reflect their ethical and social values.Journalist Nick Romeo, who covers the world s most innovative economic and policy ideas for the New Yorker, takes us on an extraordinary journey through the unforgettable stories and successes of people working to build economies that are more equal, just, and liveable. Combining original, in-depth reporting with expert analysis, Romeo explores everything from fair pricing in the Netherlands to large scale cooperatives in Spain to public sector marketplaces offering decent work and real protection to gig workers in California and demonstrates there is an alternative.

Probably the most ambitious, generous and thorough volume about a musician to see publication Mouth MagazineThe authorised companion to the music of Nick Drake, compiled, composed and edited by Cally Callomon and Gabrielle Drake, with contributions from Nick s friends, critics, adherents, family and from Nick Drake himself.Remembered For A While is not a biography. It is, rather, an attempt to cast a few shards of light on Nick Drake the poet, the musician, the singer, the friend, son and brother, who was also more than all of these. We hope it will accompany all those in search of an elusive artist, whose haunting presence defies analysis.The book contains:* In-depth interviews with many of Nick s friends, most notably Paul Wheeler, Nick s close friend from Cambridge days, a singer-songwriter who, of all Nick s friends, perhaps best understood, from personal experience, Nick s journey through musical creation to despair and back again.* A selection of photos from all eras - some never seen before - with reproductions of documents such as the scrapbook Molly Drake kept of her son s press cuttings, and the original and rejected album covers.* Images of Nick s handwritten and typed lyrics, including the lyrics of some songs for which the music has never been found.* Newly commissioned pieces by Nick s friends Jeremy Harmer, Brian Wells, Robin Frederick and the poet Will Stone. Contributions also from the sleeve designer Michael Trevithick, Island Records s Ann Sullivan and the photographer and artist Nigel Waymouth.*Extracts from Nick s letters - part of an extensive correspondence that exists between Nick and his parents, which charts their relationship from the time he first went to boarding school until the time he came home, when his depression had settled upon him and he felt he had nowhere else to go. From this point, Nick s life was documented by his father, Rodney Drake, who kept a detailed diary, as he and his wife Molly struggled to understand their son s state of mind and how to help him.
