It offers a uniquely rich and kaleidoscopic vision of the shared stories of people across Britain and Ireland - past and present.

Too young to retire, too vital to stand still, too experienced to start from scratch.Welcome to your Bonus Years.Increased longevity has gifted us fifteen-to-twenty extra active, healthy working years, shattering the traditional linear career script of learning, working, and retiring. In The Bonus Years, world-renowned London Business School professor Herminia Ibarra delivers the definitive, social-science-backed resource for navigating late-career transformation. Ibarra reveals that thriving in an extended work life requires abandoning the old linear, plan-and-implement strategies. Instead, successful reinvention comes through 'resourceful discovery' - a disciplined process of active experimentation, trying on new futures, and learning from the inside out.Whether change has arrived uninvited through an industry shock, or a quiet internal restlessness is telling you it's time to let go, this book provides the actionable tools to build transition mastery and successfully map your path forward.Filled with rich and varied case studies of professionals who reinvented themselves across the globe, The Bonus Years is an empowering manifesto for anyone who refuses to stand still. It is proof that to bloom late is not to bloom less - it is to bloom with deeper roots, on your own terms.

Juneteenth

It is seldom, if ever, that readers and writers see the different stages of a piece of writing in progress. In this unique volume, 16 of the US's most distinguished writers pull back the curtain on their creative and revision processes whilst drafting their works of creative nonfiction. Using side-by-side examples of first drafts and final versions of their writing, including original full-page reproductions from the writers' personal notebooks, an original, illuminating essay accompanies each draft that recounts the journey from inspiration to completion. Offering a generous insight into the creative process from the rough bold strokes to refined, clear, elegant prose, this behind-the-scenes look delves into the creative minds of working writers, including African American, Latino, Asian American, and indigenous writers from across the US. An invaluable resource for students and instructors looking to enliven the classroom or just offering practicing writers a peak into the processes of their peers, this book presents the false starts and missteps, the self-editing, tinkering, cutting, rearranging, and craft working writers make in the plight for perfectly polished prose. With nothing like it on the market, The Art of Revising Creative Nonfiction is an enlightening and unparalleled collection of modern-day creativity in action, a must have for aspiring writers and teachers of all levels.

'Captures that era of Hong Kong music with such warmth and clarity... Transcendent and transportive' Angela Hui 'A wondrous thing: fresh, evocative, self-aware, fantastically light of touch and wholly original' Sarah Howe A story of music, fandom and identity, from the acclaimed singer-songwriter Emma-Lee Moss (a.k.a. Emmy the Great) For 11-year-old Emma-Lee, the sound of Hong Kong in the summer of 1995 is Cantopop. The Cantopop stars she idolises are everywhere - their images are on every billboard and their music spills from shop speakers onto the streets. When she and her family move to England later that year, Emma-Lee's love of Cantopop will be pushed underground - the sound and symbol of her secret childhood identity. My Cantopop Nights is the story of how Emma-Lee found herself in a Hong Kong bar twenty years later, listening to a Cantopop song and realising that this music was her inheritance. It's about suffering an identity crisis just as the city's post-colonial tensions erupt into protests. It's a story of uncanny coincidences, magical thinking and a quest to reconcile the different sides of her heritage: Hong Konger and British, Cantopop and indie. It's a story of falling in love with a city, its people and its music, while trying to find your own place to belong. 'An author of exceptional vision... for anyone seeking to understand how complicated, tender histories unfurl in our present - and how art emerges to help us through' Jessica J. Lee 'Prepare to meet your new favourite playlist' Dan Schreiber

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'If you're worried about wasting your life, read this book.' Rutger Bregman, author of Humankind 'The best book ever written about how to have a fulfilling and impactful career.' Liv Boeree, world poker champion 'Original and helpful . . . Anyone fretting over how to spend their 80,000 hours might start by investing a few in Mr Todd's book.' The Economist A ridiculously in-depth guide to finding a fulfilling, AI-proof career You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years. That makes it the most important decision you'll ever make. Choose well, and you can have a more rewarding, interesting life, and also help solve some of the world's most pressing problems. Choose poorly, and you could waste decades. So what should you do? Most advice is based on no research, instead offering misleading platitudes like 'follow your passion'. And it is surprisingly out-of-date, focusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of AI. Benjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a nonprofit that has spent over fifteen years researching how to have a fulfilling and impactful career. Now, he explores how anyone can find one, covering: <ul><li>What really makes for a dream job, and why finding it probably doesn't involve "following your passion"</li><li>How to have a positive impact in your career, and why doing so might involve focusing on unregulated AI as much as on climate change</li><li>Which roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn't among them</li></ul> You'll come away with a plan to use your 80,000 hours in a way that's rewarding, AI-proof and fulfils your potential to make a difference. PRAISE FOR 80,000 HOURS 'This career guide is among the most thoughtful and grounded I've seen.' Cal Newport, author of Deep Work 'A remarkably rigorous guide about how to find that perfect career for you.' Ali Abdaal, author of Feel-Good Productivity 'Based on evidence and good sense, not platitudes.' Steven Pinker, author of The Better Angels of our Nature 'The most informative book you can read if you're stuck trying to make one of life's most important decisions.' Hannah Ritchie, author of Not the End of the World

An instant bestseller in Denmark, Let Your Body Do the Work is your resource for accessing the benefits of healthy, active weight-loss hormones without the hefty price tag.
