The Playbook
£16.99Knowledge is power. Which is why the rich and powerful don’t want you to have it. ‘The Playbook’ is an exposé of the extraordinary lengths that corporations will go to in order to deny the scientific facts – around climate change, public health risks and worker safety – when they don’t suit their agenda. Written in the form of a corporate handbook for tobacco, oil and pharmaceutical company executives, it is a litany of obfuscation techniques, denial, delays and outright lies. Part satire, part social history, part guide to resistance, this is a charge sheet against the powerful.

Don’t be evil
£10.99Today Google and Facebook receive 90% of the world’s news ad-spending. Amazon takes half of all ecommerce in the US. Google and Apple operating systems run on all but 1% of cell phones globally. And 80% of corporate wealth is now held by 10% of companies – not the GEs and Toyotas of this world, but the digital titans. In this book, Financial Times global business columnist Rana Foroohar documents how Big Tech lost its soul – and became the new Wall Street. Through her skilled reporting and unparalleled access – won through nearly 30 years covering business and technology – she shows the true extent to which the ‘Faang’s (Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google) crush or absorb any potential competitors, hijack our personal data and mental space and offshore their exorbitant profits.
