Easter

A profound exploration of the art and magic of writing by New York Times bestselling author Isabel Allende. In this deeply personal and insightful book, Isabel Allende delves into her creative process, reflecting on nearly half a century of writing that has captivated millions of readers worldwide. For Isabel, writing is more than a craft. It is an addiction, a means of preserving memory, and a way to make sense of life. She offers readers an intimate glimpse into her creative world, where stories take shape through intuition, discipline, and a deep connection to the human experience. It is also a glimpse into the life of a writer who views literature as a portal to understanding the chaos of life. Story Telling is not a prescriptive guide to writing. Rather, it is a conversation. In it, Isabel shares her triumphs, mistakes, and lessons learned from the challenges and joys of writing. She intertwines her own stories with invaluable wisdom for anyone pursuing the craft, making this book equally a memoir, a masterclass in the alchemy of storytelling, and a celebration of the enduring power of stories.

Decisions that Fit: How Self-Knowledge Shapes Better Choices offers a practical, research-based approach to one of life's most essential skills: making sound choices.
I present decision-making as a learnable discipline that depends on three key resources: personality, knowledge, and skills. The book guides readers through the psychological foundations of choice, examining how cognitive biases, emotional states, and personal values shape every decision we make-often without our awareness.
Beginning with fundamental concepts, I distinguish decision-making from critical thinking and explore why intelligent people frequently make poor choices. Readers learn how mental shortcuts (heuristics) can both help and hinder judgment.
The heart of the book provides an extensive toolkit for better decisions: analytical frameworks such as SWOT analysis and decision matrices alongside strategic concepts like scenario planning, no-regret actions, and the stop-loss principle. I draw on sources ranging from Stoic philosophy and Chinese stratagems to modern therapeutic approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Practical exercises form a substantial portion of the work. Six-week training plans address decision-making under stress and during anger. Journaling templates, reflection exercises, and role-based planning methods help readers apply concepts immediately. Special attention is given to personality traits (the Big Five) and how individuals with different tendencies can optimize their decision-making processes.
The book concludes with advanced concepts including design thinking, the consulting approach, and naturalistic decision-making. A historical appendix traces the evolution of decision-making practices from ancient philosophy through the age of artificial intelligence.
Written for anyone seeking to improve their choices-professionals, leaders, students, or anyone facing important life decisions-this book combines intellectual depth with actionable guidance. My goal is simple yet profound: to help readers make fewer wrong decisions and live a life that is truly their own.

Burnout rising. Systems cracking. Talent leaving. The solution: design for human dignity and full-person diversity—with this award-winning guide. The Canary Code reorganizes work for thriving—starting with those first impacted by faulty systems, like canaries first sensing toxic air in coal mines. Neurodivergent talent (members of ADHD, autism, Tourette’s syndrome, and learning-differences communities, and others who think and experience life differently) offer unique skills and exceptional work ethics, yet face employment barriers. Their unique abilities and perspectives are excluded, and their canary warnings about bullying, broken workflows, or ethical drift are ignored. This practical guide helps CEOs, managers, HR leaders, and changemakers improve work for all. Drawing on science and lived experience, 2025 Thinkers50 Talent Award winner and internationally renowned management expert Ludmila Praslova shows how embracing neurodiversity creates healthier, more innovative systems. A neurodivergent organizational psychologist with over twenty-five years of global practice and research on inclusive organizations, she offers the following: <ul><li>A holistic framework of human differences (social, cognitive, emotional, physical)</li><li>An intersectional, whole-person approach to neuroinclusion</li><li>Dignity-based talent practices, from hiring to leadership development</li><li>Global perspectives celebrating diverse neurodivergent voices</li><li>Actionable strategies for change at any organizational level</li></ul> Blending lived experience, academic rigor, and accessible writing, this groundbreaking work exemplifies neuroinclusion. It clearly indicates academic, applied, and personal content, supporting an individualized reader experience.

'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

An expert insight into the transformative power of storytelling, together with practical advice on how to make your writing come alive.
