Jolted
Most of us are just one event away from leaving our job. Conventional wisdom and lists of the “top reasons people quit their jobs” would have us believe that people quit when the toxic elements of their jobs grow too big or when they spot a better professional opportunity. But that’s only half the story.
In reality, quitting is often triggered by a single event, inside or outside our jobs, that stops us in our tracks and causes us to rethink our relationship with work. These events are what organizational psychologist Anthony Klotz calls “jolts,” and they are the most underacknowledged realities in our work lives today. Jolts represent pivotal moments in our careers, and yet all too often, we respond to them in ways that harm our well-being and success.
In Jolted, Klotz breaks down the different types of jolts we encounter and provides a road map to help us navigate them in ways that improve, rather than derail, our pursuit of the good life through our work.
Seeing Matters
In Seeing Matters, Sarah Awad offers a psychological exploration of how images shape our actions, perceptions, and identities. She examines how we use images to symbolically and materially influence the world, others, and ourselves, while also revealing how the images around us shape our thoughts, emotions, and memories. Awad investigates the social and political dynamics of visual culture, questioning who is seen, how they are portrayed, and why these representations matter. By using clear language and real-world examples, she makes complex theories accessible to readers, offering diverse methodological approaches for analyzing a wide range of image genres – such as graffiti, digital memes, photojournalism, and caricatures. This comprehensive analysis addresses the politics of visual representation, making the book an essential guide for researchers across disciplines, while providing valuable insights into how images impact society and our everyday lives.

Blood Will Flow
'A page-turner of a book' -- Financial Times'Alex Perry has done a service to history' -- Ed Stoddard, Daily Maverick'Breathtaking' -- Jon Lee Anderson'A magnificent, earth-shaking achievement' -- Andrew Harding'Vital' -- Sally Hayden'Powerful, gripping and rigorously researched' -- Jason Burke'The most astonishing piece of investigative journalism I have ever read' -- Reader reviewOn March 24, 2021, in the remote north of Mozambique, 500 ISIS militants attacked the small, paradise beach town of Palma - strategically unimportant but for vast offshore gas fields that had attracted $50 billion in foreign investment, including over L1 billion from the British government. As the Islamists surged through town beheading civilians, a group of men, women and children - including 80 gas plant construction workers - barricaded themselves inside a hotel to await rescue. An oil and gas compound defended by attack helicopters and 1,000 soldiers was just minutes away. But help never came. Five years on, Alex Perry's spell-binding, meticulous reconstruction unearths a hidden and unprecedented fiasco. Woven into his account is a search for the truth about how energy companies really make their vast profits. His investigation takes him around the world, from Europe to the US, and back to Africa again, as he tracks down the roughnecks, mercenaries, billionaires, and corporate spooks who can shed light on our most essential industry. As the revelations build and the lies multiply, Perry finds himself drawn into a legal drama, and an exploding political scandal. Propulsive, prophetic, and arriving at a time when energy companies imperil the planet, Blood Will Flow delivers a morality tale for the global economy, and an inspiring quest for justice.

Our Metaphorical Bodies
This book offers a fresh examination of the significance of metaphorical thinking in comprehending human bodies and actions. It delves into numerous examples illustrating metaphor's role in conceptualizing body parts, illnesses, and various mundane and artistic bodily performances, fostering a deeper appreciation for metaphor's impact on human life. One key objective is to challenge the implicit dualism prevalent in much metaphor research, where the body is often considered in nonmetaphorical terms, with metaphors arising solely from cross-domain mappings involving abstract concepts. The book exposes the flaws in this traditional perspective, emphasizing the intrinsic connection between metaphor and understanding our bodies. Recognizing this connection is essential for grasping the extensive influence of metaphor across all realms of human cognition and behavior. Additionally, this book underscores cultural variations in how we conceptualize our bodies through metaphorical frameworks, enriching our understanding of diverse perspectives on bodily experiences.
Year of the Rat
WINNER OF THE SUNDAY TIMES YOUNG WRITER OF THE YEAR AWARD'A tense account of going undercover inside Britain's far-right groups. At times it reads like a novel... only the stakes are real' Sunday Times‘Important and courageous’ James O’BrienHarry Shukman led a double life. Friends and family knew him as a journalist, but unbeknownst to them he was secretly infiltrating the British far right. Equipped with a hidden camera, he posed as 'Chris' and set out to expose right-wing extremists. From canvassing with Britain First to befriending Holocaust deniers, neo-Nazis and a Silicon Valley-backed race-science organisation, Shukman again and again risked his safety and sanity to remove the far right’s terrifyingly everyday mask. Now, we must ensure it stays off. 'Boldly and bravely, Shukman achieves something only the best novels manage.

Nail bitingly tense, darkly funny, unexpectedly compassionate and urgently important. I was caught up with it from the first page' Esther Freud'The rise of the far-right is one of biggest and most challenging stories around, and Harry tells it with clarity, compassion and humour.

Slepá místa medicíny
Myslíte si, že lékařská doporučení stojí na pevných důkazech?
Že když je slýcháme celý život a opakují je experti, musejí být správná?
Kéž by to platilo vždy.
Lékař a výzkumník Marty Makary přesvědčivě ukazuje, že i dnešní medicína má svá slepá místa. Tedy oblasti, kde se odborný konsenzus změnil v dogma, kde se přestaly klást otázky a kde špatné interpretace dat a tlak autorit vedly k chybám, na něž doplácejí celé generace. A možná zasáhly i vás.
Makary vás provede příběhy výzkumů, lékařských rozhodnutí a pacientů, u nichž zdravotní systém selhal – ne kvůli absenci důkazů, ale navzdory nim.
V knize se mimo jiné dozvíte:
- Epidemii alergie na arašídy nespustila příroda, ale oficiální zdravotní doporučení.
- Miliony žen přišly zbytečně o zdravé vaječníky, protože se dlouho ignorovalo skutečné místo vzniku rakoviny.
- Rutinní podávání antibiotik ničí mikrobiom a zvyšuje riziko obezity, astmatu, diabetu i duševních poruch.
- Vejce a cholesterol se nestaly obětním beránkem kvůli důkazům, ale vinou hlasitých jednotlivců.
- Hormonální substituční terapie může udělat pro zdraví žen nad padesát let víc než kterýkoli jiný lék v historii.
Tato kniha není útokem na vědu.
Je výzvou dostát jejím ideálům.

Finding Albion
**LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION 2026**'I've been waiting for a book like this.' FLORENCH WELCH'Hopeful and inspiring, Finding Albion is a vital quest for more authentic stories of Britain.' CAROLINE LUCAS'Finding Albion is the book we all need in 2026.' WEIRD WALK'A profoundly inspiring meditation upon the lost soul of Britain... I loved every word.' MATTHEW GREENZakia Sewell is on a quest for another Britain. Traversing the length and breadth of our island from Somerset to Scotland, she's seeking out a different story - one that lies beyond divisive national myths and symbols. In Finding Albion, Zakia uncovers an alternative spirit of Britain that is vividly alive today. It is found in otherworldly folk songs, ancient legends, Celtic seasonal rites and mystic stone circles that punctuate our landscape. Her journey begins as the sun rises on the spring equinox over Glastonbury Tor, where she meets neopagans reclaiming traditions from our pre-Christian past. At summer's peak at Notting Hill Carnival she hears cultural echoes that passed along the slave trade routes from the Caribbean. On All Hallow's Eve she encounters the ghosts of Empire that are still haunting the nation, and in the depths of a Cornish winter she asks if today's new folk revival could unite our increasingly divided countr? inding Albion brings a hopeful story of Britain out from the shadows, giving us a deeper sense of who we are, and heralding the promise of a brighter future.
Catuvellaunia and Rome: Economic and Political Relations during the Final Decades Pre-conquest
This study brings together the numismatic, textual, and archaeological evidence required to discuss potential economic collaboration between the powerful Roman client-kingdom of Catuvellaunia in southeastern Britain and the growing Roman military presence in northern Gaul during the decades before the Claudian conquest of Britain in AD 43 and the inevitable full annexation of Catuvellaunia by Rome as Britannia, a strategic asset. The main theme of the study centres on the grain-wealth of intensively cultivated productive chalk-land in southern Britain and the potential for its ready export to fulfil the growing needs of the military in northern Gaul, a damaged war-zone already limited in its agricultural productivity, during the decades BC-AD. Context for the study is provided by a series of related case-studies:- discussion of climatic conditions, agrarian systems, and models of grain production-consumption set the basic agri-economic parameters;- the logistics and problems of managing land-based, riverine, and maritime supply-lines servicing the northwestern frontier are discussed, with added context on contemporary settlement and shipping;- the position of Camulodunon in the context of other oppida, of Greater Catuvellaunia within the tribal structures in southern Britain, and of its role as an agent of cross-Channel trade, located nearest to Gaul, reflect its wider controlling regional power;- evidence from Celtic coinage, stylistic and inscriptional, provide a major source for essential discussion of tribal structures and lineages;- questions of military supply are outlined in detailed case-studies of two developing near-contemporary frontier-zones: the Tayside Militarised Zone [Scotland], and the Rhine frontier;- political aspects of clientship and annexation by Rome across the wider Empire provide interesting parallels.
