The PR Writing Workshop

Nick Clegg, formerly one of Meta's most senior executives, presents a blueprint for reforming Big Tech while preserving the essential openness of the internet 'Warns of the dangers posed to a free and open global internet by an age of autocrats and a titanic power struggle over AI' Guardian As democracies seek to curb the power of Big Tech, as authoritarian regimes like China and Russia isolate their populations from the internet, and as the AI race supercharges divisions between competing nations, the most powerful tool for bringing us together risks being dismantled. Taking us behind the scenes at Meta, and drawing on his unique experience on the world stage of both tech and politics, Nick Clegg sets out where Big Tech has gone wrong and the radical reforms that are needed if global platforms are to ensure their long-term future. But he also shows that many of the charges against them are overstated or simply untrue, and presents a blueprint for the international cooperation that is needed if we are to preserve what makes them so vital to our future: their potential to empower and improve billions of lives. Radical, reasonable, deeply felt and disarmingly honest, How To Save the Internet reminds us how much we stand to lose on our current path - and how much we might yet gain from a global, open internet. 'Entertaining . . . lucid, detailed . . . there is much to agree with' Spectator 'Studded throughout [with] good analyses of the political situation around technology' Observer 'A gripping and timely book. Nick Clegg writes with clarity, authority and urgency' Peter Frankopan, author of The Silk Roads 'A wake-up call we cannot afford to ignore' Tony Blair 'A vital read' Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn

The selfie, the faux-vintage photo, the self-destructing image, the food photo—these new visual forms and the devices and platforms that facilitate them have fomented a cultural revolution. Not only has the art of photography and the industry around it been transformed, but the way we under-stand ourselves has changed. The Social Photo provides a language and conceptual framework to comprehend photography in the age of social media. This updated edition includes a new preface contemplating the fate of the social photo in the era of AI-generated images.

On Photography and Social Media

The Social Photo

Leadership has a friction problem. 
 Not because people are weak.
 Not because teams are broken.
 Not because organizations lack talent.
Because work is happening under more pressure, with fewer buffers, less context, and more opportunities for human strain to spread quickly.
Everything about modern work is built for speed. But human beings are not.
In Friction, Maggie Sass and Ross Blankenship argue that the invisible force shaping performance, retention, trust, decision quality, and culture is not just workload or poor communication. It is friction: the emotional tension that shows up when being human collides with high expectations.
And most of us have never been taught what to do with it.
We tend to think of leadership as strategy and execution, and emotions as a side effect. But the truth is, many workplace breakdowns happen in the moments right before and after something small but charged: a triggering comment, a tense silence, a missed expectation, a rushed decision, a piece of feedback, a conversation that goes slightly sideways and is never fully repaired.
That is where friction lives. 
And that is where this book begins.
Drawing on original research from a broad, generalizable sample of the U.S. working population, Sass and Blankenship introduce a practical new framework for understanding how emotions actually show up at work—and what effective professionals and leaders can do about them. They show that friction is not random, and it is not merely personal. It happens across three levels at once:
<ul><li>Internal friction: what is happening inside you including your reactions, identity, forecasting, and nervous system 
</li><li>Interpersonal friction: what is happening between people, such as trust, defensiveness, feedback, and repair 
</li><li>System friction: what is happening in the environment—norms, incentives, staffing, policies, and decision structures</li></ul>
Because friction is contagious, solving only one layer rarely works. 
Read Friction if:
<ul><li>You want a better explanation for why smart, capable people still struggle at work 
</li><li>You want practical tools for handling pressure without passing it on 
</li><li>You are trying to lead or collaborate in conditions that feel faster, hotter, and less forgiving than they used to 
</li><li>You know culture problems often show up in small moments first </li><li>You want to get better at noticing tension early and responding on purpose 
</li><li>You are looking for a leadership book that connects self-awareness, relationships, and systems instead of treating them separately</li></ul>
Friction shows readers how to reduce the costly kind of friction, like avoidable conflict, rework, resentment, poor follow-through, spirals, and decision drag, while using productive friction to sharpen thinking, strengthen relationships, and improve outcomes.
Inside, readers will discover strategies including:
Calibrating Your Inner Forecaster.A practical method for noticing when your predictions are being shaped by threat, fatigue, or identity pressure so you can respond with more accuracy and self-control.
Listen for What’s at Stake. A way to hear the fear, status risk, or unmet need underneath someone’s reaction so you can address the real issue instead of fighting the surface behavior.
Premium Strategy, Regular Fuel. A system-level reminder that high expectations mean little without the time, staffing, clarity, and support required to sustain them.
Sass and Blankenship’s edge is integration. Most books live in one lane: inner work, communication, or culture. Friction brings all three together and gives readers practical experiments to test in real life.
For readers of Emotional Intelligence 2.0, Friction offers a fresh leadership framework for an era defined by overload, ambiguity, and rapid transformation. As more work is automated, the leaders who stand out will know how to read friction, work with it, and turn it into better decisions, stronger relationships, and healthier performance.
The goal is not to lead without friction. The goal is to lead through it, better.

A critical introduction to the psychiatric technologies of the future Artificial intelligence (AI) promises to transform nearly every area of modern life, and psychiatry is no exception. The field faces the mounting crisises in diagnostic inaccuracy, treatment stagnation, and persistent failures in suicide prevention, while traditional approaches struggle to keep pace with patient needs. AI and neuroscience offer a new path forward, pointing toward a future where mental health care is grounded in objective data, individualized predictions, and biologically informed treatments. Decoding Despair provides a cutting-edge look at these emerging scientific possibilities and the long-standing norms they may replace. Beginning with an examination of psychiatry's current challenges, it moves toward a present where AI-powered tools are beginning to reshape diagnostics, treatment selection, and drug development. The book offers readers a deeper understanding of mental health as both a scientific field and a lived human experience, while igniting an essential conversation about the transformative potential of precision psychiatry and technology. Decoding Despair readers will also find: <ul> <li>Exploration of the patient's journey from first symptoms to being prescribed medication</li> <li>Deep dive into the healthcare system and an understanding of the connections between stakeholders</li> <li>Clear explanations of how AI models work and how they can be practically applied to solving issues in mental health</li> <li>Deep introduction into the world of data and the different models of data acquisition necessary for building AI solutions</li> <li>Analysis of the potential innovations that could come first and the conditions necessary for them to occur</li> </ul> &nbsp; Decoding Despair is ideal for professionals and innovators building the future of psychiatry-as well as anyone seeking to understand their own mental health and the technological breakthroughs poised to reshape this critical field of care.

The Trust Architect is a leadership doctrine for a world where technology moves faster than human judgment, and trust has become the most fragile-and most valuable-currency. In an era shaped by cyber risk, artificial intelligence, and invisible digital dependencies, traditional leadership models no longer hold. This book challenges leaders to rethink authority, responsibility, and decision-making in systems where failure is silent, breaches are systemic, and ethics lag behind innovation. Blending cybersecurity strategy, organizational psychology, and executive leadership, The Trust Architect introduces a new mental model for building resilient institutions-where trust is engineered, not assumed. Written for CXOs, CISOs, board members, and senior leaders, this book is not about tools or checklists. It is about mindset. It asks one uncomfortable question: who designs trust when systems outgrow human control?
