*A Radio 4 Book of the Week*'Captivating, mind-boggling and deeply disturbing' - Maureen Freely'Humane, thoughtful and urgent - this book will make you think, make you laugh, make you cry, but also make you burn with rage' - Dr Mary WellesleyA thought-provoking deep dive into the global fertility industry and the commodification of the maternal body__________Should surrogacy be a paid service, an altruistic act - or even legal at all?Is it right that you can pay more for 'VIP' egg donors - and to view their photos?How much, if anything, should breastmilk cost - and who should be allowed to buy it?The global fertility industry is rapidly growing, hugely profitable and morally complex. This an industry where one person's biological bad luck can be another person's financial gain. From egg freezing to black-market breastmilk, the maternal body has never been more commodified, yet the ethical, emotional and economic implications are rarely considered.Through a combination of undercover reporting and detailed first-hand accounts Alev Scott exposes how the IVF, surrogacy and milk industries operate around the world and who is profiting. In doing so, she considers the blurred line between exploitation and empowerment. Who should make money from the maternal body: only the women themselves, anyone or no one?Timely, thought-provoking and compelling, Cash Cow is an unmissable investigation into how desire, desperation and commerce intersect, and the impact the fertility industry has on individuals.__________'A powerful, intimate and disturbing exploration of the hidden markets built on women's bodies' Professor Peter Frankopan'An absolute must read for anyone considering surrogacy; a compelling and thought-provoking book for everyone else' Jack Farchy, co-author of The World for Sale

This accessible and thought-provoking book offers a critical exploration of global health philanthropy, blending personal narrative with a rigorous examination of the field's challenges and opportunities. Grounded in the authors' decades of experience, Crossroads in Global Health reflects on the transformative power of medicine, the complexities of global health engagement, and the enduring human impulse to alleviate suffering. The authors examine the tension between short-term relief and durable system change, and show how reframing global health as a marketplace, powered by data, analytics, and AI, can better match resources to need and turn goodwill into measurable impact.Key Features:· Explores the history, evolution, and critiques of global health, with a focus on discrete philanthropic medical missions.· Examines the landscape of global health needs and resources, shaped by logistics, incentives, and institutional structures.· Reflects on the authors' personal journeys in global health, offering insights into the challenges and lessons learned from decades of experience.· Proposes innovative approaches to harnessing data and technology to create a more efficient and accountable marketplace for global health philanthropy.· Balances the importance of systemic solutions with the moral imperative of immediate care, emphasizing the enduring value of direct human connection in medicine.Building on the authors' previous works, including the World Compendium of Healthcare Facilities and Nonprofit Organizations, this book is an essential resource for medical practitioners, academics, and professionals in the non-profit, public, and private sectors. It offers a compelling call to action for those seeking to make a meaningful impact in global health, while honoring the profound responsibility and transformative potential of the medical profession.

Crossroads in Global Health

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.

Why Big Labor moved to the right—and the fight ahead for the left to win back America’s working class Unions helped construct the American middle class, defeat Jim Crow, and advance progressive rights, but in Trump’s America, the labor movement is changing. In Big Labor's Big Shift, journalist Nathan Bomey explores how Big Labor and the working class are no longer an automatic ally of the American left. Fueled by decades of economic decline, political disillusionment, and cultural disenfranchisement, new politically nebulous and economically populist leaders in the movement are building a powerful new movement based on class warfare that prizes wage and benefit gains over traditional progressive priorities. Through original reporting and first-hand interviews, Bomey traces key events that have led to this political shift. Bomey reveals: -At the Teamsters, president Sean O’Brien is cozying up to Donald Trump and blasting Democrats as tools of big business, even showing up at the Republican National Convention to deliver his message. -At the United Auto Workers, president Shawn Fain is seizing an opportunity to break the free trade consensus in Washington. The devout Christian, who wields religious rhetoric from the stump, is aligning with the Trump White House on tariffs and blasting Democrats for aggressively pursuing electric vehicles to fight climate change. Bomey shows how the two interconnected phenomena represent a massive political realignment—not just along cultural and nationalism lines, but of the working class itself away from its historic roots in the Democratic party. Urgent and compelling, Big Labor's Big Shift encapsulates the fight for the soul of the union movement.

When life disrupts work, leaders need to know what to do next. This practical guide shows&nbsp;leaders at organizations of every size, from small businesses to large corporations, how to support employees through hard moments while strengthening trust across the workplace. This is the book to read before the crisis happens, so you can respond with confidence, care, and clarity when it does. Life disruptions do not stay outside the workplace. Grief, illness, caregiving, divorce, infertility, and other major life events shape how people show up at work, yet most organizations still do not prepare leaders for these moments.

The leaders who build trust in difficult moments are the ones who prepare before those moments arrive. Drawing on original PhD research, interviews with employees and leaders, and nearly two decades of experience advising employers on benefits and workplace strategy, Dr. Nataliya Boychenko Stone gives leaders a practical guide for responding with confidence and care. She shows readers how to <ul><li>understand what support an employee actually needs,</li><li>connect people with the right workplace resources,</li><li>adjust work with clarity and flexibility,</li><li>stay present after the first crisis moment, and</li><li>support employees while maintaining accountability.</li></ul> This practical framework helps managers, HR professionals, and organizational leaders navigate life's most challenging moments at work while strengthening trust, loyalty, and performance across their teams.

When Life Disrupts Work

Exposes the anatomy of organizational harm and how to save institutions from toxic culture While we often read about corporate scandals, we are left wondering: why do organizations keep causing harm?​​​​​​​ Benjamin van Rooij and Nicholas Lord argue that to truly understand and address the impacts of dysfunctional organizations we must look beyond the senior executives and/or leaders and understand the deeper problems in the organization itself. To do so, Toxic uses dozens of in-depth case studies to connect the dots between various scandals and illustrate the deeper toxic patterns within organizations that lead to them. Each chapter recounts compelling stories of individuals caught within these toxic systems and addresses urgent societal challenges such as environmental degradation, the opioid epidemic, the harms of social media, and police abuse. Stories include: <ul><li>Boeing focusing so much on its day-to-day share price that it lost sight of ensuring the long-term safety of its 737 MAX airplanes.</li><li>Volkswagen experimenting with monkeys locked in cages breathing exhaust fumes in a desperate attempt to deny the harm of its “clean diesel” engines.</li><li>How the Oakland Police Department taught its rookies to engage in racist and abusive policing practices, resisting decades-long attempts to reform the department.</li></ul> Revealing, accessible, and engaging, Toxic, breaks down the core characteristics of toxic organizations and shows readers how to recognize and address toxicity in their everyday lives.

Burnout can’t be solved with just perks or stress-reduction workshops. It's solved by changing how leaders engage their teams—a practical shift that requires no new resources. Grounded in peer-reviewed research, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in everyday workplace conversations can spark energy, revive exhausted teams, and build workplaces where people thrive. Every leader is dealing with burnout and looking for something they can actually do tomorrow morning, and this is it. In this book, leadership scholar Amy Young, with Kim Cameron, reveals how everyday communication creates relational energy, the powerful force that fuels engagement, creativity, resilience, health and well-being, and performance across teams. Drawing on interviews with energizing leaders and weaving in supporting peer-reviewed research, Young unlocks the secrets to thriving amid uncertainty and disruption due to AI automation, fragile labor markets, cultural divisiveness, and relentless workplace demands. Through vivid real-world examples, you'll discover how energizing leaders sustain their own vitality while lifting their teams at the same time, simply by rethinking how they approach everyday conversations. You'll learn how to turn those ordinary interactions into extraordinary ones, providing a practical, no-cost antidote to workplace stress and burnout. In this book, you will learn <ul><li>how relational energy promotes workplace well-being and performance, creating the foundation for sustainable organizational success;</li><li>strategies energizing leaders use to maintain their own energy levels while navigating the same modern workplace pressures that impact their teams;</li><li>how to have workplace conversations that generate healthy perceptions of challenge and stress and reduce burnout while building resilience and team solidarity;</li><li>specific language choices (wording, pronoun selection, questions, and declarative statements) that empower employees, elevate teams, and drive productivity; and</li><li>how to acknowledge hard realities while building genuine hope and resilience, avoiding toxic positivity that saps energy.</li></ul> Practical, research driven, and immediately applicable, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact, recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.

The best part is, these changes have big impact but come with no cost. In this book, leaders learn how to <ul><li>use the language of belonging to help employees feel valued, respected, and connected;</li><li>turn everyday conversations into sources of relational energy that boost motivation and performance;</li><li>build trust through respectful dialogue, listening, and authentic presence;</li><li>navigate difficult conversations without draining morale or relationships;</li><li>create positive team interactions that spread energy across organizations; and</li><li>replace burnout cultures with communication practices that spark engagement and well-being.</li></ul> Practical, research-driven, and immediately applicable, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact, recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.

What lies underneath digital platforms—their invisible architecture and governance that determine everything visible. Every time you unlock your phone, stream a show, or start your car, you’re entering a world shaped by thousands of engineering decisions you’ll never see. Most platform conversations fixate on their visible canopy—business models, user experience, competitive strategy—the “leaves,” in a sense. Platforms by Amrit Tiwana excavates their roots. The book begins with a simple DNA test that separates authentic from faux platforms, then traces the forces turning tractors, pacemakers, and elevators into platforms. Using the platform trinity, the author explores principles behind why platforms behave so differently, why superior technology doesn’t always win, and why—unlike products that reach a final form—platforms never stop evolving. From there the book explains platforms’ two hidden root systems: The first system, architecture, shows how Lego-like “modular” design, frozen interfaces, and prefab building blocks let thousands of outsiders contribute pieces that snap into colossal systems. The second system, governance, describes where architecture confronts human behavior. Elegant architecture flails with poor governance, so both demand discipline.

Economics is vital, but its labyrinth of equations can make it feel disconnected from the real world. Enter a powerful tool: the metaphor.From longtime economics journalist Peter Coy comes an approachable and fun guide to the metaphors that unlock its power. With nearly 500 alphabetized entries, complemented by playful illustrations, Economics Without Numbers demystifies concepts, exploring their origins, the truths they express, and where they fall short. The result is a delightful and original primer on economic ideas and history that's perfect for students and anyone who wants to understand what makes the world go 'round.Coy has spent decades collecting these vivid metaphors. From "trickle-down economics" (the idea that making the rich richer will help the poor) to "inductivist turkey" (a parable about the perils of assuming that a trend will persist without knowing its cause), Coy brings economics to life.

Top-down person-centred leadership approaches have proved incapable of meeting the heightened demand for innovative productive output required to help organisations gain a competitive advantage edge. The post-industrial relational leader model, in contrast, due to its depiction of collective leader capabilities as emergent processes that are forged within devolved collaborative processes, has the potential to facilitate the creative expression of all workplace participants. In turn it could free leaders from the legacy of unrealistic and onerous individualist transformational expectations. Therefore, an interrogation of the coupling of participative relational leadership practices, with the integration of a substantive 'productive diversity' approach, is documented in this text. The objective being to chart the enabling characteristics underpinning a more purposeful economic, environmental, and socially sustainable mode of operating for 21st-century organisations. As potential, and currently formally appointed leaders, along with business school educators, researchers and consultants, need exposure to an alternative, new economy, form of immersive learning, then this text outlines what such an integrated theory and practice postgraduate program of education in business schools could fulfill. Given research on contemporary 'knowledge economy' employees indicates they seek well-being focused workplace cultures then the examples provided in this manuscript are designed to assist this evolutionary process.Leadership and Diversity Managementis a timely exploration in light of the heightened requirement of business for novel solutions to meet the varied economic, ethical and social challenges organisations face, related to fast paced technological developments, increasing global market competition and associated environmental impacts and cultural inequality concerns. To this end, the numerous case study examples outlined will reveal how a more socially orientated form of leadership, in addressing the embodied (cognitive and emotional) needs of diverse organisational participants, will restore a level of humanity to the workplace that has been lacking in organisations throughout the industrial era.Written for academics, researchers and policymakers alike in the fields of Leadership, Organizational Studies, Strategy and Workplace Diversity Leadership and Diversity Management is an excellent addition to the existing literature and will facilitate a deeper understanding of the connectivity factors that mark the post-industrial workplace.

This book is a timely exploration in light of the heightened requirement of business for novel solutions to meet the varied economic, ethical and social challenges organisations face, related to fast paced technological developments, increasing global market competition and associated environmental impacts and cultural inequality concerns.
