Your Best Shot
USA Today BestsellerWhy have you struggled with your weight, even when you did "everything right"? The answer isn't willpower or diet, and it's not you. Your Best Shot provides the tools to optimize your weight-health hormones permanently, whether you have never used a GLP-1 medication, are currently using one, or are ready to come off one. Here's the insight that's reshaping medicine: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound work because the body regulates appetite, metabolism, blood sugar, and fat storage through a sophisticated hormonal system. If a medication helped you lose weight or curb cravings, it means your own weight-health hormones weren't functioning at their best. That's not a personal failure. That's biology, and it's fixable—with or without the shot. Registered dietitian and weight health pioneer Ashley Koff, RD has spent over two decades in clinical practice developing a system that finally addresses why weight loss doesn't often work long-term, and what actually does. The result is an evidence-based, personalized program that meets you exactly where you are. This is not another weight loss plan. This is your plan. With Your Best Shot, you will: Identify why your weight-health hormone function isn’t optimal—and how to fix itPersonalize the nutrition and lifestyle plan with food, supplement, activity, and sleep guidelinesEliminate food noise and decision fatigue by finding out what information to ignore and what to trustNavigate the landscape of GLP-1 medications, supplements, and foodsBuild a sustainable reset, because life happens, so your plan needs to adjust with it Your Best Shot is essential for the millions of people using GLP-1s who want to maximize their results, protect their progress, and build a foundation that lasts long after the medication. It is also the definitive guide for anyone considering coming off GLP-1 therapy who needs a plan that works without it. If you've struggled with weight, cravings, energy, or body composition, this book was written for you.

Baselitz. A Life In Print
The first comprehensive survey of Baselitz’s printmaking
Celebrating six decades of print making, A Life In Print is the first comprehensive book on an important part of Georg Baselitz’ artistic practice.
Considered to be one of the greatest painters alive and credited to have revived Figuration in a time when Abstraction ruled the art world, the German artist started to explore different print techniques beginning in 1964, and never stopped to see them as an integral part of his work. While his contemporaries used new offset and screen-print techniques to create what amounted to reproductions in often high editions, Baselitz rejected the Zeitgeist and explored century old techniques like dry point etchings, aquatinta, wood and linocuts, while tirelessly pushing his own artistic limits.
The book brings together more than 245 prints and introduces the reader to all major themes and motives of Baselitz career, from the so-called Heroes of the mid-60ies to his iconic images of Eagles to the manyfold portraits of his wife Elke. The book forcefully makes the point that no other artist since Picasso has done more for and in that genre than Baselitz.
Edited by Cornelius Tittel in close collaboration with the Baselitz Archive in Munich, the book features an anthology of the quintessential historic texts on Baselitz’ printmaking – amongst others by himself, fellow artist Per Kirkeby and art historians like Michael Semff and Reiner Michael Mason. A new essay by Frode Sandvik, curator at Kode Museum, explores the shared affinities in the print work of Edvard Munch and Georg Baselitz.
The Children of Eve
BE AFRAID. MOTHER IS COMING.
Wyatt Riggins, the boyfriend of rising Maine artist Zetta Nadeau, has gone missing, leaving behind a cell phone containing a single-word message: RUN.
Private investigator Charlie Parker is hired to find out why Riggins has fled, and from whom.
Parker discovers that Riggins, an ex-soldier, has been involved in the abduction of four children from Mexico: three girls and a boy, all belonging to the cartel boss Blas Urrea - except Urrea's family is safe and well in Mexico, which means the abductees cannot be his children. Yet whoever they are, Urrea wants them back, and has dispatched his agents to secure them, even if it means butchering everyone who stands in their way.
One of those agents is Eugene Seeley, a clever, ruthless solver of other men's problems. The other is an unknown woman.
Every child has a mother. Now Charlie Parker will face one unlike any other, and learn the terrifying truth about the Children of Eve.

Ordinary Saints
Can you imagine it? I'd say to them. Can you imagine me there in the front row in Saint Peter's Square? The lesbian sister of a literal saint.
Brought up in a devout household in Ireland, Jay is now living in London with her girlfriend, determined to live day to day and not think too much about either the future or the past. But when she learns that her beloved older brother, who died in a terrible accident, may be made into a Catholic saint, she realises she must at last confront her family, her childhood and herself . . .
Inspired by the author's own devout upbringing, Ordinary Saints is a brilliant debut novel from a fresh, exciting new voice which asks - who gets to decide how we are remembered - and who we will become?
Mother Tongue Tied
'Brilliantly illustrates how multilingual mothers are disproportionately tasked with preserving linguistic heritage on one hand and preparing children for public society on the other - all while finding a language for their own new maternal identity' Eliane Glaser, author of Motherhood: A Manifesto
It is estimated that more than half of the world's population communicates in more than one language and over a third of the population in the United Kingdom is multilingual. And yet life in multiple languages is rarely discussed publicly, myths and misconceptions prevail and the pressure to keep heritage languages alive has become a private conflict for millions. Linguistic diversity is more prevalent than ever, but so is linguistic inequality.
Linguist Malwina Gudowska, herself trilingual, sheds light on the ways in which we navigate language, its power to shape and reshape lives, and the ripple effects felt far beyond any one home or any one language. It takes one generation for a family language to be lost. One generation - like mother to child. Mother Tongue Tied explores the emotional weight of raising multilingual children while grappling with your own identity and notions of home. At what cost does a mother save a language? Or does she let it slip away and, with it, a part of herself her children may never know.
Icarus Economics
Every leader comes to power promising growth: think back to the campaigns of Boris, Truss, Sunak, Starmer, Trump. Yet real-term income hasn't improved in the UK since 2008. Across the West, growth has stagnated for well over a decade, leading to cost of living crises, political instability and rising social tensions.
Is real economic growth still possible? And with the climate emergency accelerating beyond repair, should we still be pushing for it?
In Icarus Economics, acclaimed economist John Rapley argues that the problem of growth is inherently tied up with the climate crisis. We often assume that poor countries will bear the brunt of climate change, pandemics, and other exogenous shocks, but this book argues the opposite: western societies have more wealth and capital to lose and are less inherently resilient. In this book, he shows us how rich countries can grow their own economies by helping poor countries to decarbonise - and in the process, mitigate the effects of climate change.

Shadows are closing in. Love is the greatest threat of all. And the fate of the world rests in the hands of a grieving girl who never asked to be chosen.

The Achilles Trap
The Achilles Trap masterfully untangles the people, ploys of power and geopolitics that led to America's disastrous war with Iraq and, for the first time, details America's fundamental miscalculations during its ruinous, decades-long relationship with Saddam Hussein. Beginning with Saddam's rise to power in 1979 and the birth of Iraq's secret nuclear weapons programme, Steve Coll traces Saddam's motives through understanding his inner circle. He brings to life the diplomats, scientists, family members and generals who had no choice but to defer to their leader - a leader directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, as well as the torture or imprisonment of many more.
This was a man whose reasoning was impossible to reduce to a simple explanation, and the CIA and successive presidential administrations failed to grasp critical nuances in his paranoia, resentments and inconsistencies - even when the stakes were incredibly high. Using unpublished and underreported sources, interviews with surviving participants, and Saddam's own transcripts and audio files, The Achilles Trap is a remarkable picture of a dictator who was convinced the world was out to get him and acted accordingly. A work of great historical significance, it is the definitive account of how corruptions of power, lies of diplomacy and vanity - on both sides - led to avoidable errors of statecraft: ones that would enact immeasurable human suffering and forever change our political landscape.
Intertidal
A deep observation of coast and wetland, climate and self, by a leading Indian ecological activist.
Introduction by Robert Macfarlane.
Written in spellbinding prose, Intertidal reveals an unseen world. We hear frog calls through the night, spot butterflies miles into the ocean, see the churning of longshore currents, and meditate on worms' composting abilities. We also witness communities standing together to preserve the homes of the coast's inhabitants, both human and non-human.
Intertidal asks us to reimagine values to live by; heeding the natural world, attending to the climate's calling, and moving away from the old political and cultural values that have proven ecologically disastrous. Set in beaches, marshes, and the wild places of the mind, Intertidal revels in the healing power of nature and explores what it means to reclaim an ecology that has been colonised.
After Nations
What has happened to the nation-state?
From a prizewinning writer, After Nations offers a sweeping history of this most unquestioned of modern structures and a bold speculation about its future.
Until recently, the system of nation-states appeared settled and eternal. Not anymore. As American hegemony unwinds and Western countries slide into anxiety and debt, there is a resurgence of tyranny, imperialism and war. It is no longer clear that states can continue delivering 'normal' services, let alone defeat inequality and climate change. Even in rich countries, many feel they are being progressively neglected; in some parts of the world, populations are entirely abandoned by nation-states and must build systems of their own.
Rana Dasgupta traces the formation and rise of the nation-state system to explain its multiple failures today. He takes us from the fall of ancient empires and the expansion of European concepts of money and law right up to the emergence of twenty-first-century tech firms - the first significant new geopolitical actors to emerge since the inception of nation-states - and the epochal restoration of Chinese power. He posits that the time has come to develop a new conception of citizenship, law, and economy-one that corresponds to our globalized and ecologically fragile condition.
Richly detailed, urgent and told with remarkable clarity, After Nations is an essential text for anyone looking to understand why we seem to be losing our political hold on the world, and how we might try to restore it
Cleopatra
YOU KNOW MY NAME. BUT YOU DO NOT KNOW ME.
Your historians call me seductress, but I was ever in love's thrall. Your playwrights speak of witchcraft, but my talents came from the gods themselves. Your poets sing of my bloodlust, but I was always protecting my children. How wilfully they refuse to concede that a woman could be powerful, strategic, divinely blessed to rule. Death will silence me no longer. This is not the story of how I died. But how I lived.
From one of the most remarkable and acclaimed storytellers of her generation, the #1 bestselling author of FAEBOUND and THE FINAL STRIFE, this epic and groundbreaking new novel shows us Cleopatra on her own terms.
