Rejection Proof
Rejection? It's nothing to be afraid of...Maybe you avoid situations where you might be rejected. You don't apply for that dream job. You don't ask for that pay rise. You don't ask that person on a date. But it doesn't have to be that way - the only thing standing between you and your goals...is you. Jia Jiang had allowed his fear of rejection to rule his life. But he decided to take radical action: he quit his job and spent 100 days deliberately seeking out scenarios where he would likely be rejected, from ordering donuts interlinked and iced like the Olympic rings to asking to pilot a light aircraft. And something remarkable happened; Jia not only learned how to cope with rejection but also discovered that even the most outrageous request may be granted - if you ask in the right way. In this infectiously positive book Jia shares what he learned in his 100 Days of Rejection, explaining how to turn a 'no' into a 'yes', and revealing how you too can become Rejection Proof and achieve your dreams

Proof
This is a classic mystery from Dick Francis, the champion of English storytellers. Wine merchant Tony Beach will do anything for a quiet life. But when a party to celebrate the end of the racing season ends in eight violent deaths, he is drawn reluctantly into the subsequent investigation. Meanwhile, the police, having evidence of the sale of illicit alcohol at a local club, ask for Tony's help in closing it down. Thanks to his intervention, Tony comes to the attention of the criminal underworld. And that's when he reluctantly realizes that the deaths and the illicit alcohol are connected. Tony doesn't want to be a hero. But if the choice is that or dying...Praise for Dick Francis: "As a jockey, Dick Francis was unbeatable when he got into his stride. The same is true of his crime writing". (Daily Mirror). "Dick Francis' fiction has a secret ingredient - his inimitable knack of grabbing the reader's attention on page one and holding it tight until the very end". (Sunday Telegraph). "The narrative is brisk and gripping and the background researched with care ...the entire story is a pleasure to relish". (Scotsman). "Francis writing at his best". (Evening Standard). "A regular winner ...as smooth, swift and lean as ever". (Sunday Express). "A super chiller and killer". (New York Times Book Review).

Sex and the Failed Absolute
In the most rigorous articulation of his philosophical system to date, Slavoj Zizek provides nothing short of a new definition of dialectical materialism.
In forging this new materialism, Zizek critiques and challenges not only the work of Alain Badiou, Robert Brandom, Joan Copjec, Quentin Meillassoux, and Julia Kristeva (to name but a few), but everything from popular science and quantum mechanics to sexual difference and analytic philosophy. Alongside striking images of the Moebius strip, the cross-cap, and the Klein bottle, Zizek brings alive the Hegelian triad of being-essence-notion. Radical new readings of Hegel, and Kant, sit side by side with characteristically lively commentaries on film, politics, and culture.
Here is Zizek at his interrogative best.

Rejection Proof
How do you face the fear of rejection? Whether negotiating a pay rise, interviewing for your dream job, taking the first step in a relationship or trying to close a crucial sale, what do you do if the answer is 'No'? Consider it an indication of failure? Accept that defeat was inevitable? Vow never again to put yourself in such a scenario? Jia Jiang chose to tackle his fears head-on. At the age of 30, just before the birth of his first child, he quit his secure six-figure job at a Fortune 500 company and decided to spend 100 days wilfully seeking out scenarios in which he was likely to face rejection. Why? Because it terrified him. In the process of his social experiment, Jia learned how to fly a light aircraft, asked to borrow $100 from a total stranger, and made a minor celebrity of himself and a Krispy Kreme store manager called Jackie. Inspirational, empowering and charming in equal measures, Rejection Proof is the story of Jia's '100 Days of Rejection' project. In it, he shares the secrets of successful asking and negotiation he learned along the way, as well as offering revelatory advice on how we can overcome the fear of rejection.

Proof - The Science of Booze
Named a Best Science Book of 2014 by Amazon, "Wired, "the" Guardian, " and NBC Winner of the 2014 Gourmand Award for Best Spirits Book in the United States "Lively . . . [Rogers's] descriptions of the science behind familiar drinks exert a seductive pull." -- "New York Times" Humans have been perfecting alcohol production for ten thousand years, but scientists are just starting to distill the chemical reactions behind the perfect buzz. In a spirited tour across continents and cultures, Adam Rogers takes us from bourbon country to the world's top gene-sequencing labs, introducing us to the bars, barflies, and evolving science at the heart of boozy technology. He chases the physics, biology, chemistry, and metallurgy that produce alcohol, and the psychology and neurobiology that make us want it. If you've ever wondered how your drink arrived in your glass, or what it will do to you, "Proof" makes an unparalleled drinking companion. "Rogers's book has much the same effect as a good drink. You get a warm sensation, you want to engage with the wider world, and you feel smarter than you probably are. Above all, it makes you understand how deeply human it is to take a drink." -- "Wall Street Journal"
