One of TIME Magazine's All-TIME 100 Nonfiction BooksOne of The Guardian's 100 Best Nonfiction Books of All Time"Rachel Carson is a pivotal figure of the twentieth century...people who thought one way before her essential 1962 book Silent Spring thought another way after it."-Margaret AtwoodIn celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, HarperCollins is proud to present this library of American classics drawn from our storied catalog. Rarely does a single book alter the course of history, but Rachel Carson's Silent Spring did exactly that by helping to launch the environmental movement.The outcry that followed the publication of Silent Spring in 1962 forced the banning of DDT and spurred revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water. Carson's passionate concern for the future of our environment reverberated powerfully throughout the world. Silent Spring not only addressed issues of the time, but began a critical discussion on humanity's responsibility for our planet that continues to this day. As Carson reminds us, "In nature, nothing exists alone."The introduction by acclaimed biographer Linda Lear, author of Rachel Carson: Witness for Nature, tells the story of Carson's courageous defense of her truths in the face of a ruthless assault form the chemical industry following the publication of Silent Spring and before her untimely death."Wonder and humility are just some of the gifts of Silent Spring. They remind us that we, like all other living creatures, are part of the vast ecosystems of the earth of the earth...this is a book to relish: not for the dark side of human nature, but for the promise of life's possibility." -from the Introduction<ul><li>A BEAUTIFUL PACKAGE WITH FLAPS: Featuring French flaps and a unique vivid cover design, each book in the collection is published as a deluxe trade paperback that is a part of a stunning series look.</li><li>HARPER COLLINS AMERICAN CLASSICS: This series includes timeless novels, poetry, children's books, and groundbreaking nonfiction that has shaped American thought, literature, and identity across generations.</li><li>AMERICA'S PUBLISHER: Since its founding in 1817, no American publisher has been so entwined in the history of American letters. Our books enrich, challenge, and defined the American spirit.</li><li>AMERICA 250: The HarperCollins American Classics arrive in time for America's 250th anniversary celebrations</li></ul>

Silent Spring American Classics Edition

Despite massive investments, sustainable business still isn't very profitable for most companies. Here's a fresh approach for resetting sustainability for customer value--and profitability.Store aisles packed with products labeled "environmentally friendly." Businesses scrambling to respond to stakeholder demands that they make their operations sustainable. Ads touting green credentials for all kinds of enterprises. For a long time now, this has been the market landscape we've lived in, with companies such as Unilever leading the way and creating pressure for others to follow suit.But the uncomfortable truth is that after years of investment in sustainable products and services, most companies still aren't seeing the payoff--not financially, not in value for customers, and not in real environmental and social impact. Why not?As IMD professors Goutam Challagalla and Frédéric Dalsace show in this eye-opening and practical book, the shortfall is due to a strategic misalignment and a misunderstanding of what actually drives customers' purchase decisions. The authors flip conventional sustainability strategy on its head: instead of companies asking "How can we make our offerings more sustainable?" they should be asking "How can we use sustainability as a catalyst to improve the performance of our products, make them more affordable, or both?" Viewed this way, sustainability is an intrinsic, value-generating element of an offering rather than a costly add-on.The authors call companies that understand this insight--John Deere, Michelin, Schneider Electric, Nespresso, Reckitt, and others--clean winners, or "Resonators." With wide-ranging and instructive stories, they show how Resonators use sustainability to increase customer value and generate robust profits.Offering practical frameworks, tools, and tactics, Clean Winners is your essential guide to reimagining your sustainability strategy.

Sustainability Strategy That Puts Customers First

Clean Winners

How the financialization of healthcare has eroded the quality of care, driven up prices, and worsened health inequalities Financial actors and healthcare leaders increasingly view healthcare organizations as financial assets to be bought, sold, and managed for maximum profit, regardless of the effects on patient care. Uncovering how the federal government enables financial opportunism in healthcare, Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital offers bold ideas for overhauling a failed system. Rosemary Batt and Eileen Appelbaum provide a unique analysis of the financialization of healthcare, a process in which a growing proportion of the healthcare economy is owned and controlled by the financial sector. Healthcare organizations increasingly depend on financial machinations and the earnings derived from them rather than revenue generated from patient care. The extent to which financial calculations overshadow the healthcare mission depends importantly on institutional legacies, reimbursement rules, and the failure of regulatory oversight. Batt and Appelbaum show how differences in regulations and financing rules shape whether financial actors can penetrate distinct healthcare segments—from hospitals, nursing homes, and ambulatory care to physician specialties, home health, hospice, and autism services. Nonprofit healthcare is not immune from this financial logic. Evidence-based, accessible, and informed by real-world examples, Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital sheds critical light on how financial deregulation coupled with the relaxation of health, tax, antitrust, and labor laws have allowed financially driven actors to exploit public funds for private gain at the expense of healthcare organizations, patients, communities, labor, and taxpayers.

Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital

"An absolute must-read for anyone interested not just in big tech, but in what it takes to not lose your soul in modern-day America." —Naomi Fry, staff writer at The New YorkerA whip-smart, darkly funny, and timely memoir of one woman’s twelve years inside Google and her transformation from insider to dissenter as the company’s ideals begin to unravel from within.When Claire Stapleton joined Google in 2007, it felt like stepping into a worldview as much as a job. The company offered not just a career, but a moral project. In the heady early years of Big Tech and when Google’s in-house slogan was “Don’t be evil,” it was easy to believe that technology wasn’t just changing the world—it was going to fix it.Stapleton quickly became known as the “Bard of Google,” pulled into the rooms where the company narrated itself—writing speeches, blog posts, and executive communications for leaders including Larry Page. As she rose through increasingly rarefied roles, from the storied Creative Lab to YouTube marketing, she helped shape the myth from the inside.But as the gap between Google’s ideals and its reality widened, the dissonance became impossible to ignore. In 2018, amid outrage over the company’s handling of sexual harassment, Stapleton helped organize the 20,000-employee Google Walkout—a defining rupture in Silicon Valley’s self-image that The New York Times called a “watershed moment in tech.” Overnight, she became a public face of employee revolt—and no longer someone the company could neatly fold back into its story.Sharp, witty, and unsparing, Don’t Be Evil is an insider’s account of how power actually works—and a deeper reckoning with the stories we tell about work, purpose, and ourselves. In a culture that collapses identity into work, and as tech elites blur the line between private authority and public life, it asks: how much can you change from within—and when is it time to walk away?

Don't Be Evil

**Longlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize**'Andrea Wulf belongs to the small, splendid canon of writers unafraid to render fact with feeling' Maria Popova, creator of The Marginalian and author of FiguringAn inspiring biography of the remarkable naturalist, explorer and revolutionary, by the bestselling author of The Invention of Nature George Forster was a man out of time: he journeyed to the far reaches of the known world and challenged the worldviews of eighteenth-century Europe with radical ideas about equality and freedom. Celebrated during his lifetime, he knew Goethe, Benjamin Franklin, Mary Wollstonecraft and Alexander von Humboldt but has since been largely forgotten by history.The Traveller seeks to restore Forster as one of the great visionaries of his era. At the age of seventeen he joined Captain Cook's second voyage - an exploration of vast contrasts from the icy world of Antarctica to the tropical islands of the South Pacific. A brilliant mind driven by boundless curiosity, he studied the diverse nature, people and cultures he encountered and came back imbued with a deep belief in the equality of races. On his return he was feted in England, France, Germany and Poland, using his fame to advocate freedom and human rights and argue against empire, racism and slavery. He admired strong and educated women and was proud to have daughters. The book traces how - inspired by the French Revolution - he became a leader of the short-lived Republic of Mainz and was eventually forced into exile in Paris during the Reign of Terror.Following in Forster's footsteps from Europe to Tahiti, and drawing on a wealth of correspondence mostly unpublished in English, Andrea Wulf paints a portrait of a remarkable, passionate figure unbound by place, people or establishment. She vividly conveys his extraordinary quest to find what connects us rather than what sets us apart.

Bending the Rules

A searing personal account of the so-called troubled teen industry, this graphic memoir exposes and humanizes the harrowing experience of so many young people in behavioral correction facilities. When she was just thirteen years old, Sofia was taken—by two people she had never seen before—to a “therapeutic wilderness program” three states away. Her own mother, terrified that Sofia was spiraling out of control, had enrolled her in an institution for “troubled teens.” But instead of finding healing, Sofia found herself trapped. Trapped inside an unregulated industry that used promises of intervention and reform to prey upon panicking parents and kids with court orders. Over the next two years, Sofia would cycle through four different residential programs. In these places, school hours were a privilege, not a right. Contact with the outside world, including her mother, was strictly monitored. Teenage inmates were encouraged to call one another out. Still a child—ripped from her home, stripped of basic freedoms, and severed from her family and friends—Sofia struggled to understand who she really was beneath the crushing weight of the label BAD KID. &nbsp; A darkly funny and intimate coming-of-age tale, this graphic memoir exposes the harrowing realities of adolescence in and out of the "troubled teen" industry of the early 2000s. And in doing so, Bad Kid explores the lasting impact of the labels we’re given—and how making art can help transmute them.

Tys Chvak, Geschichtsprofessor, von seinen Studenten 'Karbid' genannt, weil seine Fürze, die er regelmäßig von sich lässt, nach Kalziumkarbid riechen, ist Idealist und Aktivist. In den Kneipen, die er regelmäßig besucht, hält er gerne Vorträge über die Glanzzeiten der ukrainischen Geschichte. Eines Abends, als er nach einem Kneipenbesuch nach Hause wankt, fällt er in einen Abwasserkanal. Während er sich herauskämpft, überfällt ihn eine geniale Idee. Er eilt zu seinem Freund Ikarus, Ungar, Automechaniker und begnadeter ­Zigaretten- und Ben­zin-Schmuggler, und überzeugt ihn, einen Tunnel von Wedmediw nach Ungarn zu graben. Da die Ukraine nach dem Maidan-Aufstand nicht in die EU aufgenommen wurde, ist seine Idee, dass alle Ukrainer durch den Tunnel nach Ungarn gelangen und so Bürger der EU werden. Damit löst er große Begeisterung aus, viele packen mit an, wenn auch aus weniger edlen Motiven: der korrupte Abgeordnete wittert eine internationale Karriere, der Schmuggler sieht Tonnen von Zigaretten durch den Tunnel ziehen, die Leichenwäscherin träumt für ihren Organhandel von neuer, reicher Kundschaft ...

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Two lifelong peace activists and guides to Israel/Palestine, both of whom have lost family in the conflict, take readers on a revealing life-changing journey across this holy, bloodstained land and discover the mythic, political, and personal history that divides but also binds them and their peoples. “[A] short but immensely poignant account of a shared journey across Israel and the West Bank . . . raw with pain and rage and yet bravely insistent on the imperative of hope.”—The New York Times “We do not see ourselves as Palestinians and Israelis, or as Jews and Arabs, but as human beings who believe in fostering a culture of dialogue, a culture of forgiveness, and a culture of peace. To those who see only division lines, we say: If you must divide us, let it be as those who believe in peace and equality and those who don’t ... yet.” Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah and Israeli Maoz Inon forged a bond of brotherhood when the world expected them to be enemies. Both have lost family to the conflict. Both have known the bitterness of righteous anger. Yet, they chose a different path. In The Future Is Peace, Sarah and Inon take readers on a transformative weeklong journey across a sacred and bloodstained land. Facing competing narratives, they explore how compassion and unity can pull humanity back from the precipice of blind hatred. Throughout their travels, they have been constantly asked: In the face of so much loss, how can we ever find hope? Their answer is always the same. One cannot find hope. We must create it. This book is a rebuttal to a broken world and a bold challenge to the belief that more violence can ever bring security. Told with unflinching honesty, their story is proof that peace is not a naive dream, but a courageous choice—for reconciliation to heal the wounds of revenge, for partnerships to change a destiny of war, and for empathy to save us from drowning in sorrow. Pairing unapologetic candor and inspirational prose, Sarah and Inon are sending an urgent message that the people have the power to make change. Peace is inevitable. For Palestinians, for Israelis, and for the world that awaits their example, it is not just possible—it is the future.

The Future Is Peace

&nbsp;'Absorbing'&nbsp;Telegraph'Gentle, empathetic, committed to righting undeniable wrongs' Sunday Times,&nbsp;Book of the Week'Illuminating and affectionate... an intimate and perceptive portrait' Publishers Weekly An intimate and revelatory biography of Yoko Ono from bestselling author of&nbsp;Beautiful BoyDavid Sheff met Yoko Ono and John Lennon in 1980 when conducting an in-depth interview with them just months before John's murder.&nbsp;In the aftermath, Sheff and Yoko became close friends as she rebuilt her life, survived threats&nbsp;and continued creating groundbreaking art and music. Drawing from their decades-long friendship and interviews with Yoko, her family, close friends and collaborators, Sheff shares the story of one of the most unlikely and remarkable lives ever lived.Yoko&nbsp;spans from her birth to wealthy parents in pre-war Tokyo and her harrowing experience as a child during WW2 to her arrival in the avant-garde art scenes of London, Tokyo and New York. We see how she coped under the most intense, relentless&nbsp;and cynical microscope as she was falsely vilified for the most heinous cultural crime imaginable: breaking up the greatest rock-and-roll band in history.So often remembered only for her impact on The Beatles, Yoko has been caricatured as an opportunistic seductress or manipulative impostor.&nbsp;Yoko&nbsp;delves into her life as an artist, musician, feminist and activist, reframing her incredible achievements independent of Lennon.Yoko&nbsp;is a harrowing, moving, propulsive and vastly entertaining biography of a woman whose story has never been accurately told. It highlights Ono's incredible talent and acknowledges her as a true artistic icon.
