THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION 2026Discover how art can improve our health, make us happier and even help us live longer with the inspiring new book from the award-winning scientist and world-leading expert.'Wonderful . . . I only wish it had existed as required reading when I was a medical student.' RANGAN CHATTERJEE 'Every day we are overwhelmed by advice on how to live better. Art Cure is an amazing antidote to the deluge of nonsense . . . Everyone should read this.' XAND VAN TULLEKEN'Elegantly distils the evidence for what we have always intuitively felt; that music, literature, cinema, and art are powerful universal remedies . . . A book for our times.' GILLIAN ANDERSONDIET. SLEEP. EXERCISE. NATURE. ARTS?Many of us consider making and consuming art to be a hobby, or even a luxury. But what if arts engagement - from classical music to salsa, poetry to pop concerts, galleries to graffiti - was in fact one of our most powerful tools for unlocking health and happiness?What if art could help you live longer - and even save your life?In Art Cure, world-leading expert and award-winning scientist Professor Daisy Fancourt reveals the life-changing power of the arts, including how:<ul><li>Songs support the architectural development of children's brains.</li><li>Creative hobbies help our brains to stay resilient against dementia.</li><li>Visual art and music act just like drugs to reduce depression, stress, and pain.</li><li>Dance build new neural pathways for people with brain injuries.</li><li>Going to live music events, museums, exhibitions, and the theatre decreases our risk of future loneliness and frailty.</li><li>Engaging in the arts improves the functioning of every major organ system in the body.</li></ul> And, perhaps most importantly, how art helps us not only to survive, but to thrive and flourish.Fancourt draws on ground-breaking research in neuroscience, psychology, immunology, physiology, behavioural science and epidemiology, as well as inspiring true stories of people who have experienced radical changes in their health, to empower readers to improve their own health through the arts.Informed by the results of decades of scientific studies, Art Cure is the must-read, inspiring guide to improving your health, giving you the tools to write your own 'arts prescription'.More praise for Art Cure:'A revelation . . . Could not be more timely, nor make a stronger, more urgent case for placing the arts at the centre of our communities.' MELVYN BRAGG, broadcaster and parliamentarian'Fascinating, comprehensive, compelling, inspiring.' DR CHRISTOPHER BAILEY, World Health Organization

Comprendre la maladie, la fuite et la reconquête de la vie

Une lecture bouleversante de Tout le bleu du ciel de Mélissa Da Costa

This engaging and highly practical workbook introduces students and writers to the creative and critical possibilities of the essay form, inviting them to see it as creative, imaginative and practice-led in content and approach. With most viewing the essay in academia as formulaic, impersonal, strictly linear and arguing a series of points evidenced according to certain rubrics, Kirsty Gunn and Gail Low make a case for the form to be more verb than noun, more activity and process than final arrival. Through practical examples, tips, readings, how-to plans for groups, collaborative exercises, publishing initiatives, network resources and ideas to refresh and energise study, this hybrid workbook-manifesto makes critical work creative, and creative work more probing and enlarging. With exciting implications for subjects from creative writing to areas across the humanities, the book incorporates forays into such disciplines as archival studies and history, visual and fine art, philosophy, presentation and rhetorical study and architecture. Bold and innovative, The Writing Studio is an ethos, an orientation over an instructional manual, using words, language, rhetoric and images to experiment playfully and productively with the essay form. Taking risks and offering surprises, this book chips away at outdated notions of the essay and presses forward with a mode of writing for the modern world.

The Heart and Craft of Writing a Healing Memoir

Nitrogen is what gives Guinness its surge and its dome. Fifty-four years later, a food scientist in Portland put the same gas into cold coffee, and nitro cold brew became a category. Nobody had hidden the pattern. It sat in the beer trade press for half a century, in an industry no one in coffee had any reason to read. Coffee people read coffee reports. Beer people read beer reports. We are taught to look for the future close to home: among our competitors, our customers, and the prevailing ideas within our own field. By the time a shift becomes visible inside a category, much of its strategic value has already been claimed. Your next advantage is probably taking shape somewhere you are not looking. Latitudinal thinking is the practice of looking across fields to recognize patterns others miss. Rather than examining the world you already know more intently, you learn to identify the same need, behavior, or force taking shape elsewhere, and to consider what it could make possible in your own work. Strategist Lara O’Shea has built her career on these connections. Drawing on geography, anthropology, photojournalism, and more than two decades of work across industries, she follows premiumization from spirits to skincare, coffee, and pet food, and now to fresh produce. She shows how two exhausted doctors at Great Ormond Street watched a Formula 1 pit stop on television and rebuilt the most dangerous minutes in pediatric heart surgery around what they saw, cutting technical errors per handover by roughly 40 percent. She traces how a self-taught carpenter’s son solved the longitude problem that Europe’s astronomers had claimed for two hundred years. Recognizing a connection is only the beginning. At the center of the book is the Latitude Scan, a five-step method for finding promising patterns, uncovering the forces beneath them, translating them across boundaries, and testing whether they truly fit: Chart, Scan, Triangulate, Traverse, and Ground Truth. A chapter on failure names the six ways a borrowed pattern goes wrong, so a reader can tell a meaningful parallel from a superficial resemblance before betting on it. The book arrives at the moment depth stopped paying. Your competitor’s AI has read the same reports as yours, and knowing your category better than anyone else is no longer an advantage you can hold. What remains is human work: deciding where to look, recognizing a structure when it turns up in an unfamiliar container, and judging whether it will survive the crossing.

Studying the Short Story

“Here is a writer with a rare gift for appreciation and for reminding us of all we have to celebrate in our fractured world.”&nbsp;—Pico Iyer, author of 
The Half Known Life Behind the scenes of a globe-spanning career in freelance journalism Foreword by Tim Cahill A Crooked Line celebrates an age when print journalism changed lives and made the world a better place. That era may be winding down, but this perceptive book makes the case for why incisive writing will always matter. Over the course of his 40-year career, Michael Shapiro has reported from more than 20 countries, writing for National Geographic, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times and many other top publications. But the itinerant writer’s life, while rewarding, has never been easy.
 
Shapiro worked as an investigative reporter and staff writer for San Francisco Bay Area newspapers before letting go of a regular paycheck and setting out to share stories of people and places worldwide. The exhilarations of the open road, “afoot and light-hearted” as Whitman wrote, were tempered by the challenges of freelancing, from making a living to working with heavy-handed editors.
 
His stories put people first: For a feature about Puerto Rico’s recovery after Hurricane Maria, he visited farmers who spoke of shifting from exporting produce to growing food for local people. His profile of a Yosemite photographer, who climbed Half Dome after being diagnosed with cancer, brought the man’s big-hearted humanity to the fore.
 
Shapiro is known as a travel writer, but his work goes far beyond global dispatches. In this book he shares stories of: <ul><li>saving Sunset magazine’s priceless archive of Western life (including photos made by Ansel Adams) after Time Inc. told staffers to toss everything into a dumpster</li><li>an investigation into the U.S. government’s attempt to conceal the circumstances of pro football star and soldier Pat Tillman’s death during the war in Afghanistan</li><li>writing a tribute about environmental hero Jane Goodall just hours after she died</li><li>how the Grateful Dead’s ecstatic songs celebrate the wonders of nature.</li></ul>Renowned for his books of conversations with writers and artists, A Sense of Place and The Creative Spark, Shapiro has interviewed David Sedaris, Amy Tan, Smokey Robinson, Joan Rivers, Frances Mayes and Peter Matthiessen. In this volume, he tells the story of how he convinced a reluctant Paul Theroux to agree to an interview and shares an in-depth dialogue with poet and philosopher David Whyte. A Crooked Line highlights Shapiro’s best journalism and includes behind-the-scenes anecdotes about how he pitched stories and got assignments worldwide. Postscripts detail what happened afterward; some include letters from people he wrote about, sharing what his coverage meant to them. Due to the dramatic changes in the journalistic landscape, a career like Shapiro’s couldn’t begin today. Yet the skills he honed as a journalist—empathetic listening, concise and evocative writing, and a keen sense of what matters—remain as relevant as ever. The tales and insights in A Crooked Line provide a timely affirmation of journalism’s enduring power to illuminate the human experience. This penetrating book reminds us that whatever life path we choose, it’s vital to make it our own.

WEAPONIZE YOUR WEIRD

If you are building something that pays off slowly, this book is the blueprint for the patient way it actually gets done. For founders, writers, makers, and anyone assembling a body of work over years: the most prolific author you've never studied is the best teacher alive on building work that lasts. Gordon Korman wrote his first book for a seventh-grade assignment and was marked down for messiness. It sold two hundred thousand copies. Five decades later he has published more than a hundred books and sold over thirty-five million copies, and he still insists it was never genius. It was a chapter a week, held for a very long time. This book takes that career apart for parts. In the tradition of Robert Greene, it reads one extraordinary working life as a quarry of practical laws and hands each one to you. You will learn: -<ul><li>Why cadence beats intensity, and how a unit too small to refuse outproduces every heroic sprint</li><li>Why the library, not the launch, is the wealth</li><li>How to know which mountain isn't yours, and stop chasing prestige away from the thing you're great at</li><li>Why franchises compound and standalones don't</li><li>How to outlast the recurring funeral every field announces for itself Seventeen laws, each drawn from documented public fact, each tested against one honest standard: keep only what would be worth doing even if you never break through. The career is astonishing. Not one of its components is. That is the most useful thing about it, because components can be copied. An independent, unauthorized analysis. Not authorized by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Gordon Korman. Drawn entirely from public sources and written in good faith.</li></ul>

A Chapter a Week

'I loved it' KIT DE WAAL, author of The Best of Everything'Generous, intelligent, full of wisdom and insight' LILY DUNN, author of Sins of My Father*A transformative guide to creative writing and the power of paying attention.The way we use language to tell stories reveals a lot about who we are and what matters to us. In Between the Lines, Julia Bell draws on almost thirty years of teaching to take us inside the writing workshop, where students from all over the world meet to share and discuss their work. She finds that in this space a kind of alchemy occurs, where&nbsp;paying real attention to one another and what we have to say - the ultimate challenge in our atomised, 'always-on' society - becomes a profound emotional education.&nbsp;Weaving philosophy, psychology and politics together with stories from the workshop, and featuring wise, practical advice on how to go about writing, this generous and thought-provoking book is about the transformative practice of noticing and slowing down. It shows how bad writing teaches us good things, how creativity helps us to see and be seen, and how reading and writing together fosters connection, tolerance, more expansive ways of thinking, richer access to language, new perspectives - and a better understanding of ourselves and others.*'What&nbsp;appears to be a guide to creative writing is actually a brilliant manual for how to exist in groups, to handle painful material, to grow together. Could anything be more necessary or inspiring?' Olivia Laing, author of The Garden Against Time
