Über den Schutz der User, Resilienz und die Gründung von Binance – ein Memoir

Freedom of Money

"When are you going to get a real job?"

Will Leonard heard this question for eighteen years. From fishing cutlery out of restaurant drains in Brisbane to running nightclubs in Brighton where the cocaine budget exceeded marketing. From Dubai's passport hierarchy to Singapore's corporate towers. He collected titles, air miles, and the growing suspicion that climbing the ladder just meant you could see how pointless the view was.

The irony? Once he finally got a "real job" was when he got made redundant.
Turns out that was the best thing that ever happened to him.

The employment contract is dead. AI is eating execution jobs for breakfast. And the fractional economy-where you work for multiple companies instead of giving your life to one-has doubled in the last two years. Most people are panicking.
But the skills this new economy actually requires? Reading situations without a playbook. Building solutions with nothing. Staying functional when everything's on fire.

Hospitality workers have been doing that for generations. They just never got credit for it.
Part memoir, part framework-this book connects eighteen years of chaos to the career that finally made sense.

This book is for:
Anyone stuck in the gap between who they're supposed to be and who they actually are. Hospitality workers tired of the question. Executives watching their industries shift underneath them. Anyone who suspects the old rules stopped working but doesn't know what comes next.

You're not lost. You just haven't connected the dots yet.

How 18 years in hospitality prepared me for the future of work

When are you going to get a real job?

Der Hundebeschützer trägt Mias Vermächtnis in die Welt

Im Namen der Hunde

'"I liked the Jewish jokes," she says. "Oh, it's OK", I say. "I'm allowed to make them." Her eyes light up. And so it all begins.'When Max meets Eliana, a dazzling modern Orthodox Jewish girl, in a bar in Edinburgh one night, he never expected it to kickstart an agonising identity crisis. While their connection is instant and deep, Max discovers a devastating truth: that despite his upbringing, to millions around the world, including the girl he's fallen for, he is deemed non-Jewish.Determined to build a future with her, comedian and writer (and uncircumcised liberal Jew) Max Olesker embarks on one of the world's most demanding religious conversion processes. He attempts to navigate the dizzying complexities of Jewish law, the challenges of maintaining a relationship without physical contact, and the looming prospect of a date with a scalpel. From moving into the home of an Orthodox family for eight months to enduring gruelling interrogations by a high court of Rabbis, Max's journey is a rollercoaster of humour, heartbreak, and self-discovery.A hilarious and moving true account of one man's quest to marry the love of his life, Making the Cut will make you laugh, cry, and believe in the transformative power of love.

Growing Up Without Growing Old

All the Best for the Future

*Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize* 'A fascinating exploration of the linkages between ancestral inheritance, diasporic belonging, and our climate future... I read it in one sitting, which took me on a moving and often unexpected journey' Aube Rey Lescure 'Part of me knew what the hungry ghosts wanted all along, what they still want. It is not vengeance. No, they want something else, but we refuse to listen. They want us to face up to our broken obligations.' Every spring during the Qingming Festival, people return to their home villages in China to sweep the tombs of their ancestors, making offerings of food and incense to prevent them from becoming hungry ghosts that could cause misfortune. Yet for the past century, a time ruptured by war and revolution, many tombs have been left unattended. Following a record year of wildfires, Alice Mah returns to her family's rice village in South China, and discovers that her ancestors are almost forgotten, and there are no tombs left to sweep. Instead, there are incalculable clan debts to be paid.Here Mah chronicles her journey from the rice villages of South China to her home in post-industrial England, through the Chinatowns of Western Canada where she grew up, to the isles and industry of Scotland where she now lives. As years pass and fires rage on, she becomes increasingly troubled by her ancestors' neglected graves. Her research on pollution gives way to growing eco-anxiety, culminating in a crisis of spiritual belief.A haunting blend of memoir, cultural history and environmental exploration, Red Pockets confronts the hungry ghosts of our neglected ancestors, while searching for an acceptable offering. What do we owe to past and future generations? What do we owe to the places that we inhabit?

An Offering

Red Pockets

Was, wenn das innere Auge nichts sieht und genau darin eine besondere Stärke liegt?Die preisgekrönte Journalistin Evelyn Roll lebt mit Aphantasie: Sie kann sich Dinge abstrakt vorstellen, aber nicht innerlich visualisieren. Ihr inneres Auge ist vollständig blind. Lange wusste sie nicht, wie sie dieses Andersseineinordnen sollte, bis sie erkannte, dass ihre Wahrnehmung einer neurologischen Besonderheit folgt und kein Mangel an Fantasie ist.<ul><li>Persönlicher Lebensbericht über Aphantasie und ein Leben ohne innere Bilder</li><li>Verständlicher Einblick in Neurodiversität und die Vielfalt menschlicher Gehirne</li><li>Ermutigendes Buch über Anderssein, Selbstverständnis und besondere Fähigkeiten</li><li>Für Leser:innen von autobiografischen Sachbüchern, Psychologie und Hirnforschung</li></ul> 
In ihrem persönlichen Lebensbericht erzählt Evelyn Roll von Erfahrungen, scheinbaren Seltsamkeiten und Sonderbegabungen und von dem Moment, in dem vieles plötzlich einen Namen bekam. Aphantasie zeigt: Menschliche Gehirne funktionieren so&nbsp;individuellwie Fingerabdrücke. Was für die einen selbstverständlich ist, kann für andere völlig anders aussehen oder nicht sichtbar sein.Evelyn Roll verbindet autobiografische Einblicke mit Erkenntnissen über das Gehirn und die Vielfalt menschlicher Wahrnehmung. Ihr Buch ist ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer dafür, Neurodiversität neu zu denken, Unterschiede zu verstehen und Anderssein als Superkraft zu feiern.

Mein erstaunliches Leben mit Aphantasie – und warum wir alle neurodivers sind

Du siehst etwas, das ich nicht sehe

From California Governor Gavin Newsom comes an intimate and poignant account of identity, belonging, and the defining moments that inspired a life in politics “Go slow,” his political elders advised him, but Gavin Newsom has never known such a speed. For Newsom, the California Dream is what lured his father’s family from County Cork, Ireland, six generations ago. His great-great-grandfather, a cop, walked a beat in San Francisco, where almost 150 years later, Newsom would be elected as mayor, running on the values instilled in him by his family history: that California’s open arms must continue to extend to each new generation. Newsom has never lived anywhere but California. Born in San Francisco, his parents divorced at a young age, and his childhood was spent being tugged between two worlds: his mother worked three jobs in order to care for her children while his father, a close friend of the Getty family, brought Newsom into San Francisco society, a world of wealth and connections. The dissonance was frustrating, and made all the more difficult because of undiagnosed dyslexia, but the vantage point was valuable: he inherited his mother’s perseverance and his father’s reverence of California, not only its wildness, but its opportunity. In Young Man in a Hurry, Newsom traces the forces that have defined his ambitions as a politician and have pushed him to outpace the nation on myriad cutting-edge social issues that have since entered the mainstream. As mayor of San Francisco, he made waves when he violated state law in order to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, more than ten years before the Supreme Court made such unions legal. He launched bold efforts to counter climate change, improve mental health care, and enhance gun safety, and worked to preserve the California Dream for his constituents. Elected as governor on the eve of unprecedented wildfires and entering office into immediate hyper-partisan headwinds from Washington, DC, Newsom has constantly and consistently stuck his neck out. Here for the first time, he reflects on the long personal journey that ultimately shaped him into one of the most recognizable and accomplished elected officials in America. Filled with intimate family history and written with candor and remarkable personal insight, here is a deeply resilient California story of identity, belonging, and the defining moments that inspired a life in politics.

A Memoir of Discovery

Young Man in a Hurry

From the acclaimed filmmaker and Sunday Times bestselling author comes a frank, insightful and heartwarming exploration of the myriad issues surrounding contemporary motherhood. "It was the first time I'd ever signed 'Mummy', and it was a goodbye letter." "I feel so honoured to have carried you both for nine months and delivered you safely into the arms of your parents." "I knew I had to be in that little girl's life. The next time I got out, I never used drugs again." "As a refugee, I say to my daughter, 'You have been born in a safe place. Never take that for granted.'" After having her first child, Stacey Dooley had a new understanding of what family means - but not everyone's experience of motherhood is the same. In Dear Minnie, Stacey brings her trademark empathy and investigative skill to an entirely new 'frontline', exploring the varied perspectives of mothers of all experiences. Using letters that each mother has written to their child as her starting point, Stacey's frank, honest, and moving inquiry takes in experiences from pregnancy to birth and beyond, uncovering the messy truths and different emotional journeys women take, as well as the common bonds they all share. Dear Minnie shines a light on the quiet selflessness, resilience, pain, trauma, grief, and joy of every kind of mother, to tell a story that transcends culture and geography, and speaks to us all.
