'Passionate and rigorous... riveting' Financial Times '[a] cool-headed but powerful polemic...' Sunday Times 'A thoroughly convincing argument that Spotify's success has had a disastrous effect on pop music...' The Guardian 'A vital addition to the genre... arrives not a moment too soon' The TelegraphTHIS BOOK WILL CHANGE HOW YOU THINK ABOUT, AND CHOOSE TO LISTEN TO, MUSIC Streaming is reshaping music for artists and listeners alike. Until now, the cultural ramifications of these seismic shifts have been underexplored. Drawing on over one hundred interviews with industry insiders, former Spotify employees, and musicians, Mood Machine takes us to the inner workings of today's highly consolidated record business. Building on her years of wide-ranging reporting on streaming, music journalist Liz Pelly details the consequences of the Spotify model by examining both sides of what the company calls its two-sided marketplace: the listeners who pay with their dollars and data, and the musicians who provide the material powering it all. As music has become increasingly playlisted, personalized, and autoplayed, the stakes for artists and listeners alike have never been higher. Mood Machine is an essential read for any music fan seeking a deeper understanding of how we listen now.

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.

A Practical Guide to Delivering Business Value

Technology Strategy

An Instant New York Times Bestseller From one of our leading chroniclers of the intersection of innovation and capitalism, a landmark reckoning—based on unprecedented access—with one of the world’s most brilliant and driven tech visionaries, and his game-changing company Even by the standard of a tech industry stacked with so-called geniuses, Demis Hassabis is a special case. Born poor in North London to immigrant parents, a chess prodigy by age five and wizard coder in his teens, he turned down a seven figure offer before turning 18 to feed his insatiable scientific curiosity at Cambridge. Later, he added a neuroscience PhD to his computer science skills to pursue the dream of artificial general intelligence, the ultimate goal being to unravel the mysteries of biology and theoretical physics and to usher in super-abundance. Alongside a small group of fellow travelers, that is the path he is still on, leading the AI research at Google, winning a Nobel Prize along the way, and imagining machines that will compound, or possibly supplant, the human understanding of the universe. Hassabis has given Sebastian Mallaby a great deal of his time, sitting for over thirty hours of conversation. But Mallaby has also drawn from Hassabis's detractors, such as his estranged cofounder Mustafa Suleyman; from his rivals, such as OpenAI's leading scientist Ilya Sutskever; and from academic pioneers who now fear for human survival, such as Nobel laureate Geoffrey Hinton. The result is a revelatory account of a singular figure and his company and a profound reckoning with this protean field as it leaps from the periphery to the center of our consciousness. No one questions Hassabis’s brilliance. There are those who, like Elon Musk, have at times regarded him as an "evil genius." He is in a game where the stakes are matched only by the exorbitant costs — for talent, and for compute. Celebrated scientists pursue the technology because they cannot resist the sweetness of discovery. Others pursue it for money or power. The inventors believe they control their technology, but often, the technology controls them. Despite Hassabis’s pivotal role inside Google’s engine room, this is not a Silicon Valley story. Hassabis deals with the Valley and takes its money, but remains outside and furiously critical of it, lambasting its leaders in conversation with Mallaby. The end of this race cannot be known, but as this great book shows us, Hassabis's quest to will a new form of cognition into the world is a defining story for our era.

Demis Hassabis, DeepMind, and the Quest for Superintelligence

The Infinity Machine

“Phenomenal…a jaw-dropping book.” —Jon Stewart, The Daily Show Named by The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Prospect magazine as a best book of the year, this “scrupulously reported” (The New Yorker) and “astonishing” (The Daily Telegraph, London) book rivets with its portrayal of how Apple allowed itself to become dependent on China for a huge percentage of its manufacturing, making it vulnerable and unwittingly laying the groundwork for the Asian superpower to rival the US in technological expertise. After struggling to build products on three continents, Apple turned to China’s seemingly endless supply of cheap labor. It soon deployed thousands of engineers, trained millions of workers, and invested hundreds of billions of dollars to create the most advanced global supply chain. These efforts fueled the iPhone’s dominance—but also laid the foundation for a powerful, state-supported Chinese electronics industry. What began as a business decision evolved into a cautionary tale of global trade, tech rivalry, and national security. Without intending to, Apple helped Beijing acquire technological influence that could now be weaponized—a central concern in the ongoing US-China tech war. Drawing on over two hundred interviews, Patrick McGee exposes never-before-reported details from Silicon Valley to Shenzhen: internal emails, secretive executive meetings, and overlooked voices inside the company’s China operations. You’ll meet the “Gang of Eight” executives tasked with appeasing Beijing, a Mormon missionary who launched Apple retail in China, and a veteran whose dreams of improving factory conditions were crushed by both Apple’s demands and Xi Jinping’s authoritarian crackdown. From Foxconn and Tim Cook to the Chinese Communist Party and Taiwan Semiconductor, this is a revelatory look at how Apple, in seeking efficiency, became entangled in the very politics it once claimed to challenge. For readers of Chip War, American Factory, and The Big Short, Apple in China is a searing examination of corporate power, Chinese nationalism, deglobalization, and the fragile relationship between Silicon Valley and the world’s rising superpower.

Most companies talk about digital transformation. Few actually transform. Think Digital, Beyond Digital isn't another book about technology, it's a book about clarity, simplification, and change. Rui Pedro Silva reveals why 70% of transformations fail and what the best leaders and organizations do differently: they stop chasing trends and start thinking beyond digital while going digital. After two decades leading global change in companies such as Puma, adidas, and A.P. Moller–Maersk, Rui Pedro Silva delivers a field-tested roadmap to make your business truly digital first, by thinking it from the outside in and building it from the inside out. He combines hard-won executive experience with peer-reviewed academic research to bring structure and simplicity to what often feels chaotic. Through real stories, from small shops that went global to giants that lost their way, Rui Pedro Silva shows how to connect strategy with behavior and vision with execution using his signature frameworks: ASCEND, FRAME, SCRIPT, ENRICH, CORE5, and the 4-Floor Model. Each one turns complexity into clarity and change into measurable progress. If you're tired of buzzwords and want to truly lead transformation, not just manage it, this book is your blueprint. Whether you run a startup or a multinational, it will help you see your organization as it really is, understand your market and customers, align people around what matters most, and build momentum that lasts. Because digital transformation isn't about being the most technical. 	 	It's about being the most ready to change.
