About the Author

'One of the most compelling medieval history books I have ever read' IAN MORTIMER 'An enthralling book' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT 'Exhilarating ... funny, informative, even optimistic' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Jones is a thoughtful, well-travelled scholar with an eye for a killer image' SUNDAY TIMES 'Accessibly erudite and infectiously entertaining' TELEGRAPH 'A lovely book' PETER FRANKOPAN A disarming, surprising history which explores art, mysticism and literature to show how the Middle Ages used the Seven Deadly Sins as a roadmap for a happier and healthier life. What can a twelfth-century monk teach us about burnout, envy, or despair? Far more than we might imagine. In Self-Help from the Middle Ages, historian Peter Jones travels through Europe's archives and libraries to uncover a lost psychology: a world where confession was therapy, sin was diagnosis, and the Seven Deadly Sins served as a map of the human mind. From the deserts of Egypt to the Vatican Library, from Dante's Florence to Catherine of Siena's cell, Jones introduces the thinkers, mystics and rebels who wrestled with the same questions that preoccupy us now: how to live with our flaws, forgive ourselves, and find meaning amid confusion. Medieval lives and landscapes come vividly alive: Siberian winters and Parisian manuscripts, lustful saints and anxious scholars, candlelit abbeys and vaults of forgotten books. Wise, surprising, and deeply humane, Self-Help from the Middle Ages reveals that the remedies we seek for our 21st-century anxieties may have been with us all along-written in brown Gothic ink on lambskin seven hundred years ago. 'Revelatory ... a moving, eloquent and important book' SPECTATOR 'A wonderful, eye-opening book ... Jones is brilliant company and a wonderful teacher' MAIL ON SUNDAY ''Funny and profound ... a great book.' XAND VAN TULLEKEN, doctor, broadcaster and host of What's Up Docs? 'Brimming with exceptional insight' HELEN CARR, author of Sceptred Isle 'Beautifully written and brilliantly conceived' BRUCE HOLSINGER, author of Culpability

A Journey Into the Medieval Mind

Self-Help From the Middle Ages

A science-based, practical blueprint for cultivating a life—at work and at home—full of belonging, joy, and vitality, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Culture Code What is a meaningful life, and how do we make one? How do certain communities foster closeness, fulfillment, happiness, and energy? What makes us flourish?&nbsp; In Flourish, bestselling author and leading culture expert Daniel Coyle trains his eye on the groups and people who have demonstrated exceptional connectivity and dynamism. He draws on research and original reporting—introducing us to thirty-three men who were trapped in a Chilean coal mine, an anarchist deli in Ann Arbor, the Dutch soccer team that revolutionized the sport as we know it, a nursing home that helped its residents turn back the clock—to reveal the principles and secrets that distinguish these communities. He finds that flourishing groups do two things: they cultivate presence (open, responsive awareness) and practice group flow (generative exploration). Through captivating real-world stories, reporting, and firsthand accounts, Coyle explores what sets some groups apart—and unlocks the door to allow you to flourish in your life.

Open When…

'For anyone who has wondered whether they'll ever be in charge of their emotions, this book has the answer: yes' - Angela Duckworth, author of Grit 'This book does much more than make sense of emotions - it breaks new ground on how to manage them' - Adam Grant, author of Think Again Whether it's anxiety about the dentist, boiling rage when we're stuck in traffic or devastation after a painful break-up, our lives are filled with situations that send us spiralling. But as difficult as our emotions can be, they are also a superpower. When they're activated in the right ways and at the right time, they function like an immune system, alerting us to our surroundings, telling us how to react to a situation and helping us make the right choices. But how do we make our emotions work for us rather than against us? Acclaimed psychologist Dr Ethan Kross has devoted his scientific career to answering this question. In Shift, he dispels common myths - for instance, that avoidance is toxic or that we should always strive to live in the moment - and provides a new framework for shifting our emotions so they don't take over our lives. Shift weaves groundbreaking research with riveting stories of people struggling and succeeding to manage their emotions - from a mother whose fear prompted her to make a spur-of-the-moment decision that would save her daughter's life mid-flight to a nuclear code-carrying Navy SEAL who learned how to embrace both joy and pain during a hellish training activity. Dr Kross shows us that we already have access to a wide array of tools and demonstrates how to harness them to be healthier and more successful. Filled with actionable advice, cutting-edge research and inspiring stories, Shift puts the power back into our hands, so we can control our emotions without them controlling us - and help others do the same. 'Packed with gems of wisdom and endless actionable advice on emotional regulation, Shift is essential reading for everyone. I couldn't put it down' - Chris Evans 'A revolutionary guide to mastering your emotional life' - Charles Duhigg, author of Supercommunicators

'Packed with wisdom' GARETH SOUTHGATE 'Extraordinary and empowering' LAURA KENNY 'Full of tough love and practical wisdom' BEAR GRYLLS --- What if you could change your life in less than five minutes? We assume that the highest-performing people are wired differently; that their success is down to nothing more than raw talent. But in the course of 400 conversations with the world's most remarkable individuals, Jake Humphrey and Damian Hughes have found the opposite: real success comes from small, often imperceptible changes in behaviour. They are called micro-habits. Drawing on exclusive interviews with leading high performers - from Olympic-medallists to billionaire entrepreneurs - Micro-Habits introduces the forty-eight simple tools that anyone can use to achieve excellence. The best thing? They work right away. --- Drawing on conversations with . . .

From the Sunday Times bestselling authors of High Performance.

Tiny Changes That Supercharge High Performance

Micro-Habits

A bold framework for successfully navigating complicated interactions at work, at home and in all of our relationships - by one of the first leadership coaches to infuse her work with an equity lens and create spaces for connection that require both accountability and generosity. What if the very moments that feel like setbacks could become openings for transformation? Aiko Bethea teaches that what holds us back is not the challenge itself, but how we meet it. The tension at work. The misunderstanding at home. The silence in the face of discomfort. She calls these experiences 'the bullsh*t' because they keep us out of alignment with who we aspire to be. But the bullsh*t is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of choice. Each moment of misalignment can shrink us back into old habits, or it can call us forward into a different way of leading, loving and living. With a witty, engaging voice, Bethea invites us to choose connection over competition, empathy over pity and vulnerability over ego, guiding us toward evolving into the version of ourselves we most respect. As she reminds us, 'bullsh*t can't be fought off, but it can be transcended.' Through her Anchored, Aligned, Accountable framework, Bethea draws on real-life experiences from her work as a facilitator and leadership coach, offering journaling prompts and practical exercises to support readers' growth. In doing so, she shows us how to step into that transcendence. Grounded in truth. Connected to values. Committed to action that changes not just what we do but who we become.

A Framework for Transcending Bullsh*t and Transforming Our Lives and Work

Anchored, Aligned, Accountable

You might already consider yourself a stellar conversationalist, but could you be even better? This book will help enrich your life, one conversation at a time. 'Ground-breaking research that changed my life' Mel Robbins 'Reading TALK is like having a conversation with the world's best conversationalist' Angela Duckworth _________ Conversation is at the heart of our relationships and decision-making - but the science behind our everyday interactions, and how to improve them, is little known. In Talk, Harvard Professor Alison Wood Brooks provides fascinating insights into the power of effective communication. She gives you the tools that her MBA students say transform their lives, bringing together psychology, linguistics, sociology and neuroscience in her original framework: T - Topics - including the surprising impact of preparing topics before a conversation A - Asking - why we need to do more (and why we do less than we think) L - Levity - how to find the fun in conversations with anyone K - Kindness - how to be a better listener and not simply pretend to be one! Through her own original research, Brooks shows readers how small changes in how we communicate can make a big difference to our relationships, our careers and our lives.
