Qualified - Shari Dunn
A groundbreaking work challenging the false narrative that diversity equals a lack of qualifications by uncovering the impact of “competency checking,” a practice that unjustly scrutinizes Black people and other people of color, forcing them to repeatedly prove their worth, intelligence, and even their right to be in the workplace.The advancement of Black and other people of color in the workplace is under attack as there is a turn away from the promise of the racial reconciliation of 2020. This period saw Black talent rise in the workplace from DEI managers to CEOs to junior-level hires. Yet, the post-2020 workplace is seeing an alarming retreat from creating workplaces and leadership that reflect the nation’s diversity.That retreat is characterized by underemployment, cracked glass cliffs, toxic work environments, and claims of “empty pipelines.” More concerning, Black professionals and other people of color often face greater scrutiny than their peers regarding job applications, work experience, and qualifications to even be considered for employment or advancement. And that scrutiny has a name: Competency Checking.When it comes to hiring Black talent, the pipeline isn’t broken; rather, it is the assumptions we make about who is competent and qualified. In Qualified, award-winning executive and journalist Shari Dunn combines deep research with enlightening interviews and anecdotes from across the broad spectrum of her career to uncover the history of Competency Checking, how it manifests in the workplace, and what can be done to change it. Competency checking, Dunn argues, continues to be practiced consciously and unconsciously and is the key reason why Black people and other people of color are underrepresented in so many industries and why there continues to be a revolving door of Black talent even after the hiring surges of 2020.

The Courage of Birds - Pete Dunne
A recommended bird-related book to give this season by The Washington PostFrom our own backyards to the rim of the Arctic ice, countless birds have adapted to meet the challenges of the winter season. This is their remarkable story, told by award-winning birder and acclaimed writer Pete Dunne, accompanied by illustrations from renowned artist and birder David Sibley.Despite the seasonal life-sapping cold, birds have evolved strategies that meet winter’s vicissitudes head on, driven by the imperative to make it to spring and pass down their genes to the next generation. The drama of winter and the resilience and adaptability of birds witnessed in the harsher months of the calendar is both fascinating and astonishing.In The Courage of Birds, Pete Dunne—winner of the American Birding Association’s Roger Tory Peterson Award for lifetime achievement in promoting the cause of birding—chronicles the behavior of the birds of North America. He expertly explores widespread adaptations, such as feathers that protect against the cold, and unpacks the unique migration patterns and survival strategies of individual species. Dunne also addresses the impact of changing climatic conditions on avian longevity and recounts personal anecdotes that soar with a naturalist’s gimlet eye.Filled with unforgettable facts, wit, and moving observations on the natural world, Dunne’s book is for everyone; from the serious birder who tracks migration patterns, to the casual birder who logs daily reports on eBird, to the backyard observer who throws a handful of seed out for the Northern Cardinals and wonders how the birds magically appear in the garden when temperatures begin to fall.Praise for Pete Dunne“Dunne’s prose is lyrical, sensitive, and full of feeling.”—Ted Floyd, editor, Birding “Pete is arguably North America’s best and best-known birder—and he’s also a terrific writer.”—Scott Shalaway, author and former syndicated nature columnistPraise for David Sibley“There are 47 million birdwatchers. But there is only one David Sibley. . . . He is a boon to both the birding world and the art world.”—The National Audubon Society“[His] exacting artwork and wide-ranging expertise bring observed behaviors vividly to life.”—Birdwatching

The Missing Thread - Daisy Dunn
A brilliant concept, executed with enviable elegance Lucy Worsley A gem of a book. Thanks to Daisy Dunn s elegant and lively retelling of history, the women of the ancient world are restored to the centre of the story of classical antiquity. It was a joy to read Peter FrankopanLonglisted for The Anglo-Hellenic League Runciman Award 2025Spanning 3,000 years, from the birth of Minoan Crete to the death of the Julio-Claudian dynasty in Rome, a magisterial new history of the ancient world told, for the very first time, through women. For centuries, men have been writing histories of antiquity filled with warlords, emperors and kings. But when it comes to incorporating women aside from Cleopatra and Boudica, writers have been more comfortable describing mythical heroines than real ones. While Penelope and Helen of Troy live on in the imagination, their real-life counterparts have been relegated to the margins. In The Missing Thread, Daisy Dunn inverts this tradition and puts the women of history at the centre of the narrative.These pages present Enheduanna, the earliest named author, the poet Sappho and Telesilla, who defended her city from attack. Here is Artemisia, sole female commander in the Graeco-Persian Wars, and Cynisca, the first female victor at the Olympic Games. Cleopatra may be the more famous, but Fulvia, Mark Antony s wife, fought a war on his behalf. Many other women remain nameless but integral. Through new examination of the sources combined with vivid storytelling Daisy Dunn shows us the ancient world through fresh eyes, and introduces us to an incredible cast of ancient women, weavers of an entire world.

When Nothing Feels Real - Nathan Dunne
Journalist Nathan Dunne was living the life of his dreams in London until, one evening, he jumped into a lake for a swim. When he emerged, his identity was simply gone. He felt completely lost and in acute, inexplicable pain. He knew who he was supposed to be but had no connection to the person named Nathan. His memories were distant and separate, not his. Everything was unfamiliar. All he felt was terror.This was the beginning of his experience with depersonalisation, a little-understood and on-the-rise mystery mental illness that causes a person to dissociate from their body and thoughts. It can be chronic and severe but it can also be more everyday and relatable: symptoms include feeling overwhelmed, withdrawing from family and friends, experiencing negative thoughts, being unable to concentrate or perform routine tasks, or feeling outside of yourself.When Nothing Feels Real is Nathan s quest to find his way through to the other side from the terrifying onset of his illness, the years of misdiagnosis and his long search for an answer and a cure. In the vein of Lost Connections and The Woman Who Changed Her Brain, he expertly weaves in neuroscience, patient experiences and interviews with leading doctors in the field, using himself as a guide to courageously explore the personal, medical, psychological and philosophical issues raised by depersonalisation.A compelling, deeply personal account, When Nothing Feels Real shines a light on this growing mental illness, helping other sufferers feel more informed and less alone. Utterly fascinating...thrilling to be given an insight into an experience of the world that is not just at the end of a particular spectrum, not just ordinary pushed to an extreme, but which exists in what seems like a different category altogether. Mark Haddon, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time This book broke my heart but also gave me hope. There is so much yearning here, so much longing to live and to love and to be whole again. This is a brave and beautiful book. Mira Bartok, author of The Memory Palace: A Memoir This book is a vital and timely exploration of a poorly understood and devastating mental illness, and a powerful meditation on the fragility and resilience of selfhood. It will resonate profoundly with all those who question what it means to be ourselves, and what it is to be human. Elinor Cleghorn, author of Unwell Women When Nothing Feels Real took a lot of courage to write. It captures the pain and mystery of depersonalisation as well as its art and science. Professor Anthony David, Neuropsychiatrist and Director of the UCL Institute of Mental Health Nathan Dunne is a writer of such touching sympathies and affinities and generosity and pure gifts of language and mastery of both echoes internal and in the air. Cynthia Ozick, author of The Puttermesser Papers and Antiquities Dunne s writing is extraordinary, original and rewarding. Robert Cottrell, BBC Culture Jeepers! That s some illness. Peter Goldsworthy

Though their renown extends throughout the world, hummingbirds are found exclusively in the Americas. Small in stature yet fiercely tenacious, they have conquered every habitat imaginable: from boreal woodlands to deserts, mangrove swamps to volcanic slopes, and on islands both tropical and sub-polar. The Glitter in the Green takes us on an unforgettable journey in search of the most remarkable examples of this wildly variable family. There⠙s the Bee Hummingbird in Cuba, the smallest species of bird to have ever lived; the diminutive Rufous Hummingbird, whose annual migration exceeds 3,000 miles; and the critically endangered Juan Fernández Firecrown, marooned on the remote Pacific island that inspired Robinson Crusoe. Jon Dunn brings us closer than ever before to these magnificent creatures, exploring a heady mix of rare birds, a history redolent with mythology, and the colourful stories of the people obsessed with hummingbirds through the ages. With great passion for his subject and a taste for adventure, Dunn transports us to wondrous landscapes from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, and invites us into the kaleidoscopic world of the hummingbird ⠓ the bird that has won the hearts and minds of mankind for millennia.

The Mountains Shall Drip Sweet Wine - John Anthony Dunne
What does the Bible say about alcohol?Evangelical Christianity has a complicated relationship with alcohol. For years, many believers have welcomed it as a gift from God, while others have rejected it as a definite, Spirit-quenching sin. But what does the Bible actually say about alcohol and its use?Alcohol is a pervasive theme throughout the Bible. In The Mountains Shall Drip Sweet Wine, John Anthony Dunne offers an exhaustive exploration of the references to alcohol and its related imagery within the Old and New Testaments. His biblical-theological approach allows for the nuance of the genres and historical periods of the Bible to shed light on how we are to approach the topic.In his thorough account, Dunne argue that the symbolism of wine and other fermented drinks in the Bible is multifaceted and complex--as a good vintage itself would be. We must be attuned to the various ways in which biblical authors deploy this motif, dripping with theological symbolism, when they speak of creation, covenant, kingdom, wise decision-making, and more. The Bible s kingdom-oriented imagery communicates a call for wisdom in the everyday life of the Christian disciple with an overarching vision that what Christians think about alcohol, regardless of position, has significant impact on community life.

In the process he points to the societal reforms needed in order to avoid an endless cycle of criminality and hopelessness.Right From Wrong is a deeply humane and honest book, and an unflinching look at men⠙s mental health and emotions at a time when our awareness of these things is of crucial importance.

Not Here, Not Now - Anthony Dunne, Fiona Raby
What it means to design at a time when, for many people, the future seems to have become an impossibility.When reality fails us, what can design do? Question design’s relationship to reality, as Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby do, in this exhilarating, yet thoughtful journey to the edges of science, philosophy, and literature to find new ways of thinking about the possible—and about the meaning, function, and place of design in that speculative world of “not here, not now.” A conceptual travelogue of sorts, Not Here, Not Now brings together words, images, and objects that capture, in design form, some of the ideas encountered along the way. Itself a design experiment, the book explores ways to bring these ideas into conversation with objects through imagined archives, libraries, glossaries, taxonomies, lists, tales, and essays.The design responses in Not Here, Not Now—to a stone raft, e.g., or a vegetable lamb, swatches of imaginary colors, a pocket universe in the home, objects undergoing space-time collapse—are, like the most compelling utopias, impossible by design, aiming instead to nourish the creative, intellectual, and imaginative ground from which new possibilities, still unknown, might begin to emerge.

RSPB Spotlight: Puffins - Euan Dunn
Puffins is packed with eye-catching, informative colour photos and features succinct, detailed text written by a knowledgeable expert.Enduringly popular, Puffins are perhaps our most iconic species of bird, and are the most immediately identifiable of seabirds with their decorative bills and clown-like gait. Yet when they take to the air they wheel and turn with great agility and underwater these stocky little birds use short specially adapted wings to propel themselves through the water in pursuit of small fish.Surprisingly little was known about Puffin ecology until recently thanks to their preferred breeding habitat being underground on remote islands or hard-to-reach coastlines. Now Euan Dunn discloses all we have learnt about them as a result of technological advances, and provides a revealing account of their life cycle, behaviour and breeding, what they eat, how they interact in their busy colonies, and where they migrate to in winter. Euan also exposes the mounting threats Puffins face and offers advice on the best places to see them.Each Spotlight title is carefully designed to introduce readers to the lives and behaviour of our favourite birds and mammals.

A natural history of the wilderness in our homes, from the microbes in our showers to the crickets in our basements Even when the floors are sparkling clean and the house seems silent, our domestic domain is wild beyond imagination. In Never Home Alone, biologist Rob Dunn introduces us to the nearly 200,000 species living with us in our own homes, from the Egyptian meal moths in our cupboards and camel crickets in our basements to the lactobacillus lounging on our kitchen counters. You are not alone. Yet, as we obsess over sterilizing our homes and separating our spaces from nature, we are unwittingly cultivating an entirely new playground for evolution. These changes are reshaping the organisms that live with us -- prompting some to become more dangerous, while undermining those species that benefit our bodies or help us keep more threatening organisms at bay. No one who reads this engrossing, revelatory book will look at their homes in the same way again.

When Annie s nephew and his wife are set to go to London to find work, their two small children, a little boy and his older sister, are brought down to spend the summer with their great-aunt.It is a strange chance for happiness for Annie. But against that happiness moves the figure of Billy Kerr, with his ambiguous attentions to Sarah, threatening to drive Annie from her last niche of safety in the world. The world of childish innocence also proves darkened and puzzling to her, and she struggles to find clear ground, clear light - to preserve her sense of love and place against these subtle forces of disquiet.A summer of adventure, pain, delight and ultimately epiphany unfolds for both the children and their elderly caretakers in this poignant and exquisitely told story of innocence, loss and reconciliation.

But a darker truth lurked beneath the surface – Ruby’s wholesome online persona masked a more tyrannical parenting style than anyone could have imagined. As the family’s YouTube notoriety grew, so too did Ruby’s delusions of righteousness.

Všude samí lháři - Shari Lapena - audiokniha
Audiokniha: VÍTEJTE V MĚSTEČKU STANHOPE, IDEÁLNÍM PRO RODINNÉ BYDLENÍ. William Wooler je spořádaný manžel a otec, na první pohled. Má ovšem tajný poměr, který jednoho odpoledne v nedalekém motelu poměrně dramaticky skončí. Zničený a naštvaný se vrací domů, kde nečekaně narazí na svou poněkud problematickou devítiletou dceru Avery – a William ztratí nervy. O pár hodin později nahlásí rodina Woolerových, že se Avery pohřešuje. Najednou už se v tomhle klidném městečku necítí bezpečně nikdo. A William není zdaleka jediný, kdo tady skrývá nějaké tajemství. S každou další svědeckou výpovědí začínají být všichni místní obyvatelé stále zděšenější. Opravdu se všichni tak dobře znají? Dá se tu vůbec někomu věřit? A především: KDO UNESL AVERY WOOLEROVOU? Citace / výkřiky z knižní obálky „Život mezi sousedy, kde se cítíte v bezpečí… A pak pohřešované dítě, celá řada rodičů, kteří za každou cenu chrání své potomky, manželek, jež brání své muže, a podlých a pochybných osob, co se skrývají všem na očích. Miluju to!“ - CRIMEREADS „Shari Lapena se rychle stává mezinárodním fenoménem… Všude samí lháři jsou nejlepší z jejích sedmi thrillerů. Začínají třeskutě a končí zvratem, který nikdo neuhodne. Mezitím narazíte na stopy, lži, intriky a spoustu pěkně vykreslených postav, které dělají nepěkné věci.“ - THE GLOBE AND MAIL SHARI LAPENA (* 1960) bývala právničkou a učitelkou angličtiny, nyní je spisovatelkou na plný úvazek. Žije na farmě poblíž Toronta. Prózy publikuje od roku 2008, celosvětově se prosadila svým prvním psychothrillerem Manželé odvedle (2016), který zaujal dramatickou rodinnou zápletkou, a především nečekanými zvraty, a to až do poslední stránky. Svůj talent pro tento žánr stvrdila Shari dalšími šesti tituly: Někdo cizí v domě (2017), Nevítaný host (2018), Jeden z nás (2019), Její konec (2020), Nepříliš šťastná rodina (2021) a Všude samí lháři. Její romány vycházejí ve 40 zemích, kde pravidelně po vydání atakují nejvyšší příčky žebříčku bestsellerů včetně Sunday Times či New York Times.

Dom mojej matky - Franke Shari
Shari Frankeová vyrastala v rodine ktorá v očiach celého sveta pôsobila ako príkladný vzor.Rodinný vlog na YouTube 8 Passengers (Ôsmi pasažieri) prezentoval dokonalý život, dokonalé detia dokonalé hodnoty. Za touto fasádou sa však odohrával boj o prežitie.Najstaršia dcéra slávnej vlogerky Ruby Frankeovej v tejto šokujúcej spovedi prvý raz odhaľujeskutočný príbeh o navonok harmonickej domácnosti, v ktorej vládla autoritatívna matka a neskôraj jej sadistická „poradkyňa“ Jodi Hilderbrandtová. Disciplína, ktorá pripomínala praktiky kultu, saskrývala za morálne zásady, ničila dôveru, bezpečie domova a detské duše.Shari Frankeová rozpráva o výchove plnej trestov a manipulácie, o krutom režime, ktorý sa tvárilako mormonská viera. Matka sa viac starala o svoju online povesť než o potreby vlastných detí aotec svojej manželke zaslepene prikyvoval. Shari nakoniec našla odvahu povedať dosť a priznaťpred svetom pravdu.Keď polícia v roku 2023 zatkla jej matku a poradkyňu za týranie detí, zverejnila na Instagramefotku policajného auta s jediným slovom: „Konečne.“ Shari Frankeová napísala silnú, emotívnu azároveň mrazivú výpoveď, ktorá odhaľuje temnú stránku rodiny žijúcej pred kamerami. Je tovýpoveď o prežití, o hľadaní pravdy a o tom, že aj z najtemnejších kútov sa dá vyjsť na svetlo. Akste niekedy rozmýšľali o tom, čo sa skrýva za dokonalými videami na sociálnych sieťach, tátokniha vám otvorí oči.
