Mary Portas I recommend Viv Groskop s How to Own the Room to anyone wanting more self-confidence. Philippa Perry__________Most books about public speaking don t tell you what to do when you open your mouth and nothing comes out.

Here s how.__________***** Easy to grasp practical tips... all served up with lightness and generosity. ***** It has made me realize I don t even need to be good, but I can be brave. ***** Brilliant, engaging, honest, vulnerable, often damn funny.

How To Do The Work - Dr Nicole LePera

As a clinical psychologist, Dr Nicole LePera found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients - and for herself - she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual health that equips people with the tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she d learned with others - and The Holistic Psychologist was born. Now Dr LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she offers both a manifesto for self-healing and an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from both scientific research and healing modalities, Dr LePera helps us recognise how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, keeping us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviours can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell. In How to Do the Work, Dr LePera offers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviours to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care.

The School of Life Guide to Modern Manners: how to navigate the dilemmas of social life

Modern life is full of minor but acute dilemmas: we get stuck at a gathering with someone unusually boring and wonder how to move on without causing offence; in the course of introducing one friend to another, we realise that we have forgotten one of the party’s names; we run into an ex while on an early date with a new partner; we spill red wine across a host’s sofa... Such dilemmas might – at one level – seem desperately insignificant. But they actually belong to some of the largest and most serious themes in social existence: how can you pursue our own agenda for happiness while at the same time honouring the sensitivities and wishes of others; how can you convey goodwill with sincerity; how can you be kind without being supine or sentimental?It is often confusing to know how to act around others and navigate social situations.This book features twenty case-studies on common social dilemmas and our possible responses to them, contributing to a new and original philosophy of graceful conduct.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER AND A FINANCIAL TIMES, SUNDAY TIMES AND TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 The best book on football I have ever read Daniel Finkelstein Fascinating and educational. An enjoyable and informative read Sir Kenny Dalglish Deserves a place among the great modern books on football Sam Wallace, chief football writer, Telegraph______________________________The insider account of the data revolution that has swept through the modern football world written by one of its key architects, Ian Graham.Between 2012 and 2023, Ian Graham worked as Liverpool FC s Director of Research. His tenure coincided with the clubâ ™s greatest period of success since the 1980s, including winning the Premier League in 2020 â “ Liverpoolâ ™s first league title after an agonising three decades.Here for the first time, Graham reveals the fascinating data that informed some of the clubâ ™s most pivotal moments of the past decade, from the appointment of Jurgen Klopp as manager in 2015 to the signing of Mohamed Salah in 2017. Along the way, he shares groundbreaking insight into the modern game, including how a season largely played behind closed doors transformed our understanding of home team advantage, or why the GOAT (greatest of all time) might not be who you think. And, in a game that is increasingly dominated by an elite few, Graham charts a path for the future where a data-savvy competitor will always find the edge.______________________________ A fascinating, witty and remarkably insightful account of Liverpool s reinvention and a clear-eyed, detailed explanation of the inner workings of modern football. Nobody is better qualified to tell either of those stories than Ian Graham, who stands as one of the most (quietly) significant figures in the recent history of the club and the sport Rory Smith, author of Expected Goals and Chief Soccer Correspondent, New York Times Never before has the data revolution in football been described so well from the inside.

How to Defeat the Far Right - Nick Lowles

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.

How to Feel - The Buddha

A new translation of the Buddhaâ ™s teachings on mindfulnessâ ”and how it can help us to be less controlled by our emotionsTo feel is to suffer. But do we have to suffer as much as we do? Twenty-five hundred years ago, the Buddha discovered that practices of mindfully observing our feelings and emotions can help us gain some distance from them. In How to Feel, Maria Heim provides new translations of essential early Buddhist teachings on mindfulness meditation and connects them to recent findings in psychology and neuroscience. A superb meditation manual and insightful exploration of psychology, the book also provides a brief introduction to Buddhism and features the original Pali-language texts on facing pages. Drawing from the Samyutta Nikaya, an early canonical collection, How to Feel introduces Buddhist practices of mindfulness. Using them, we can watch feelings come and go like winds passing through the sky. We can observe what causes our negative emotions and learn to shift our attention to other things. We can see where emotions lead us and learn to redirect them. We will still feel, but, with practice, emotions will have less control over us. Just as they did in ancient India, the teachings in How to Feel offer todayâ ™s readers radically new and more enlightened ways to experience emotions.

#39;Ultimately as inspiring and devastating as the Amazon itself #39; The Guardian #39;Bold, pacy, bursting with optimism and filled with vivid descriptions, this is the work of an indomitable soul #39; - Guy Shrubsole #39;A defiant triumph of a book #39; - Gaia Vince #39;An important book which we should all read #39; - Andrea WulfAn urgent work of reportage which takes the reader deep inside the Amazon rainforest, and shows that even if you kill a journalist, you cannot silence a story.RECIPIENT OF A WHITING FOUNDATION AWARDOn 5 June 2022, award-winning journalist Dom Phillips was working on this book, alongside the indigenous expert Bruno Pereira, when they were both shot. They are believed to have been assassinated by one of the criminal networks whose ecological exploitation they were working to expose.As the world becomes more aware of the significance of the Amazon, home to nearly 400 billion trees, working in this vast region has become ever more dangerous for activists and journalists. Fires, land grabs, and the invasion of reserves have all spiked over recent decades, pushing the world #39;s biggest forest ever closer to a point of no return. The last few years have seen efforts to reduce deforestation, but the question remains; can we save this globally essential ecosystem before it is too late?A group of expert writers took up his partially completed manuscript, committed to his mission of uncovering the truth about deforestation and searching for solutions. Blending in-depth reporting and encounters with indigenous activists, ecologists, farmers, and political figures, How to Save The Amazon is a dazzling account of how we can fight ecological destruction and stand in solidarity with the Earth #39;s environmental defenders.

How to Save the Internet - Nick Clegg

The global, open internet is fragmenting.As democracies seek to rein in the power of Big Tech, as Silicon Valley pivots to an America-first agenda, as authoritarian regimes such as China and Russia segregate their populations from the rest of the internet, the most powerful tool ever created for bringing the world together risks being dismantled.Taking us behind the scenes at Meta and his interactions with world leaders, Nick Clegg, Metaâ ™s former President, Global Affairs, sets out where Big Tech has gone wrong, how Silicon Valleyâ ™s insularity has blinded it to its missteps, and the radical reforms of the global platforms that are now needed if they are to secure a long-term future.But he also makes the case that many of the charges against them â “ including that their algorithms polarise, manipulate and harm â “ are vastly overstated or simply untrue. And while new laws that regulate these corporations are essential, imposing national borders on the internet cannot be the answer. That will fatally undermine its capacity for knowledge-sharing, collaboration, education, trade, medical and scientific research, and ultimately for the improvement and empowerment of billions of lives.Radical, reasonable, deeply felt and disarmingly honest, How To Save the Internet sets out a blueprint for the global cooperation we need in order to reform Big Tech while preserving the fundamental openness of the internet on which our future so depends.

A biography of the book that inspired Prince to adopt purple as his signature color, Pulitzer-Prize-winning author Richard Powers to become a writer, and countless other creative people to become artists.A primer on the art and design of children s picture books, renowned children s literature scholar Philip Nel takes the reader on an illustrated tour through all that made Crockett Johnson s Harold and the Purple Crayon an astonishing success: from Harold s clear line, Johnson s carefully planned improvisation, the Garamond typeface, the real ⠜Harolds⠝ who inspired the title character, how Johnson overcame his editor s initially lukewarm reaction, to the role of the book s three colors (purple, brown, white), and whether or not the tan-hued Harold himself is a child of color. In a series of microhistories that ripple outward from Harold and the Purple Crayon, 30 brief chapters explore the big ideas behind this small book. Johnson s classic raises questions about the nature of reality; creative expression during the Cold War; the implied audience of children s literature; abstract art versus representational art; and the color of crayons, ink, and people. All of these questions depend upon how children s picture books work--in this case, the apparent invisibility of Johnson s design choices, the limits imposed by the offset color lithography printing process, the history of the crayon, and the book s circulation into the hands of many real children around the world.This small book explores the pleasures of looking closely. Indeed, picture books are many people s introduction to looking closely. As a portable gallery, the picture book is a democratic art form, requiring only a library card to view. In modeling the pleasures of sustained attention, this book invites you to look closely at art that interests you--picture books, of course, but any kind of art. When you look, listen, or read closely, what questions does the art invite?

I Sing to Use the Waiting - Zachary Pace

With remarkable grace, candor, and a poet s ear for prose, Zachary Pace recounts the women singers - from Cat Power to Madonna, Kim Gordon to Rihanna - who shaped them as a young person coming-of-age in rural New York, first discovering their own queer voice. Structured like a mixtape, Pace juxtaposes their coming out with the music that informed them along the way. They recount how listening to themselves sing along as a child to a Disney theme song they recorded on a boom box in 1995, was when they first realized there was an effeminate inflection to their voice. As childhood friendships splinter, Pace discusses the relationship between Whitney Houston and Robyn Crawford. Cat Power s song My Daddy Was a Musician spurs a discussion of Pace s own musician father, and their gradual estrangement. Resonant and compelling, I Sing to Use the Waiting is a deeply personal rumination on how queer stories are abundant yet often suppressed, and how music may act as a comforting balm carrying us through difficult periods and decisions.
