This empowering collection of 90 carefully curated poems and drawings is for anyone who finds themselves overwhelmed with the state of humanity or who has ever felt the call of self-discovery in search of wholeness. Benn’s evocative words and imagery not only mirror the mental and emotional challenges of the individual in the thick of change, but also touch on the collective strain of our times and offer an opportunity for reflection. ‘The Alchemy of Melancholy’ embraces darkness as an essential part of evolution and explores the notion of transformation, which is never a straight shot but a winding road. Each poem grants permission to the reader to feel it all – from tantrum to epiphany – to tune in to oneself and allow one’s emotions to be a guide for what is begging to be processed.
Sunrise on the Reaping takes place over the 50th Hunger Games.
When Claire Stapleton joined Google in 2007, it felt like stepping into a worldview as much as a job. The company offered not just a career, but a moral project. In the heady early years of Big Tech and when Google’s in-house slogan was ‘Don’t be evil,’ it was easy to believe that technology wasn’t just changing the world – it was going to fix it. As Stapleton rose through increasingly rarefied roles, from the storied Creative Lab to YouTube marketing, she helped shape the myth from the inside. But as the gap between Google’s ideals and its reality widened, the dissonance became impossible to ignore. In 2018, amid outrage over the company’s handling of sexual harassment, Stapleton helped organize the Google Walkout – a defining rupture in Silicon Valley’s self-image. Sharp, witty and unsparing, ‘Don’t Be Evil’ is an insider’s account of how power actually works – and a deeper reckoning with the stories we tell about work, purpose and ou
When was the last time you said ‘no’? Not, I don’t think so, or maybe, or let me think about it – but a full-throated ‘NO’? How often do you agree to do things you don’t want to do? Most of us – especially those who don’t wield traditional modes of power or wield less of it – often find ourselves landing on okay or sure instead. In this eclectic and empowering book, Anna Holmes explores why it’s difficult to utter that two-letter word. Playfully tracing how ‘no’ shapes our lives, Holmes shows how, if exercised properly, it can radically change our world.

Rhetoric once sat at the centre of elite education. Alexander the Great, Shakespeare and Martin Luther King, Jr. used it to build empires, write deathless literature and inspire democracies. Here, Heinrichs shows us how these persuasive tools, honed over more than three thousand years of use persuading others, can be turned on our most difficult audiences – ourselves. Using techniques invented by the likes of Aristotle and Cicero and deployed by some of history’s most persuasive characters, we see how rhetoric can convert the gloomiest of situations into positive ones.
You’ve felt it too. A coincidence too perfect to be chance. A knowing that arrives before the facts. A door closing – only to reveal the path you were meant to take. Part of you has always known there’s something more at play. We’ve been trained to dismiss what we can’t measure – to trust logic over intuition, data over energy. But Magic isn’t fantasy; it’s the invisible force shaping everything we see and feel. Quantum research now confirms what mystics and witches have understood for centuries: reality is not as fixed as it seems. It responds. It bends. Combining cutting-edge psychology with ancient wisdom, cognitive scientist Poppy Jamie reveals eight secrets for living magically – showing you how to see beyond the surface, deepen your sense of purpose, and transform your relationships, health and happiness.
Praised as a book that ‘brings you luck the moment you open it’, this book contains lessons on how to understand – and use – the psychology of luck. Why are successful people so obsessed with luck? Because they want to draw things of value to them. The average person will experience at least a couple of lucky breaks in their lives, but life’s successes and failures are dependent on how well you recognize the signs of such luck. Born into a family with a gift of intuitive foresight and raised in Korean traditions of numerology, astrology and shamanism, Min Ji Yoo has developed deep insights into how people attract luck, money and the things they value to themselves. In this work, Min Ji Yoo focuses on how successful people harness their luck to attract success – and how we can too.
