Tiny Experiments


Life isn’t linear, and yet we constantly try to mold it around linear goals: four-year college degrees, ten-year career plans, thirty-year mortgages. What if instead we approached life as a giant playground for experimentation? Based on ancestral philosophy and the latest scientific research, Tiny Experiments provides a desperately needed reframing: Uncertainty can be a state of expanded possibility and a space for metamorphosis. Neuroscientist and entrepreneur Anne-Laure Le Cunff reveals that all you need is an experimental mindset to turn challenges into self-discovery and doubt into opportunity. Readers will replace the old linear model of success with a circular model of growth in which goals are discovered, pursued, and adapted—not in a vacuum, but in conversation with the larger world. Throughout the book, you will ask hard questions and design simple yet meaningful experiments to find the answers. You will learn how to break free from the invisible cognitive scripts that shape your life, how to harness the power of imperfection, and how to make smarter decisions when the path forward is unclear. This is a guide to: • Discover your true ambitions through conducting tiny personal experiments • Dismantle harmful beliefs about success that have kept you stuck • Dare to make decisions true to your own aspirations • Stop trying to find your purpose and start living instead Tiny Experiments offers not just practical tools to make sure our most vital work gets done, but a guide to reawakening our curiosity and drive in a noisy, busy, disaffected world, so that we can discover and pursue our most authentic ambitions while making a meaningful contribution.

Thinking Sideways


Chess is the art of the possible - after all, there are more possible chess games than atoms in the universe. Chess players are experts in considering their options, allowing them to seize an opportunity, idea or move that no one else saw. Two-time US chess champion Jennifer Shahade calls this 'thinking sideways'. And in today's hyper competitive world, thinking sideways can help you win at life. In Thinking Sideways, Shahade shows you don't have to be a great chess player to think more like a chess player. From building mind palaces to crafting decision trees, she reveals the most useful strategies from the ancient game that we can use in our daily lives. Drawing on examples from business, sports and psychology, as well as her own experiences touring the world as a chess and poker player, Shahade transforms our understanding of what success looks like, and how to achieve it for ourselves. This book is not about playing chess better, or even playing chess at all - it's about how thinking sideways can propel you to success and happiness.

Bonded by Evolution


What if everything we thought we knew about finding and keeping love was wrong?We’re told that what men and women desire from relationship is different and at odds – he’s looking for novelty, she’s looking for commitment; he’s concerned with looks, she’s concerned with status. We’re told that we live in a hierarchy of romantic inequality, in which desirability is predetermined by a narrow set of characteristics and where some people are marriage material while others are only fit for hookups. Such ideas about attraction, love and human mating have their roots in evolutionary psychology, and over the past few decades they have permeated our culture and fuelled a narrative of human mating that inspires despair and anxiety – and, in their most extreme form, misogyny and violence.But this narrative is unscientific.The rigorous scientific truth about human attraction and relationships – and the way evolution plays out in our personal lives – is much more interesting and optimistic.Bonded by Evolution is a radical new account of attraction and romantic relationships. Informed by his work at the Attraction and Relationships Research Laboratory in California, Professor Paul Eastwick reveals how attraction is best depicted as a process of finding – and, often, creating – a compatible relationship within a small set of romantic options. And by understanding how humans have historically sought compatible partners in small networks, we can build an alternative to the dominant script, and a clearer – and brighter – picture of how attraction and relationships really work.

Using line drawings, bullet points, candid self-disclosure, case studies and journal prompts, this is an approachable and authoritative book that is ideal for newcomers to IFS (and those more versed in it) and which will transform the way you think about therapy. To improve your mental flexibility, emotional regulation and interpersonal tolerance, and to find greater balance in all areas of your life, start here.

In Single, Nicola explores being un-partnered in a world designed for couples, and how to find the joy in the life that you are already living.
