Fable for the End of the World

For the first time ever, one of the world's most iconic business leaders shares the story of his remarkable life and career.Ken Chenault has lived his life at the confluence of the historical forces that have shaped modern America, keenly aware of both the burdens of its past and the dynamic potential of its future. Born in 1951, when segregation was still inscribed in the laws of the land, he ascended to the peak of corporate America over the course of the next fifty years. In his thoughtful and wide-ranging memoir, Chenault reflects on his personal journey, the mentors who shaped him, and his lifelong quest to realize his own potential and make a meaningful difference in people's lives. Equal to the Task is a classic American story for our times.After joining American Express, Chenault steadily worked his way up to the very top. He led the company for almost two decades, driving market-leading innovations, before stepping down and making another surprising life choice. Eschewing the more traditional roles for former CEOs, he joined a dynamic venture capital firm, seeking to help build enduring companies that leverage technology for both profit and purpose. Over the past years, he has continued to be a steady voice of moral clarity in the public and private sectors."In these pages, I share how I managed the opportunities and challenges encountered over the course of my life and career. In doing so, I hope to convey the values I hold most dear. Values passed down to me by my ancestors, my parents, my teachers, my heroes, and my mentors. These values have guided me throughout my journey, and I consider them pivotal to meeting these extraordinary times as my country wrestles with its own identity, its future, and its role in the 21st century."

A Life Forged Between America’s Promise and Its Truth

Equal to the Task

A powerful book for readers aiming to support trans youth that Booklist calls a "warm and generous book [that] will help a wide range of readers" and Publishers Weekly says is "a pragmatic program for parenting beyond the gender binary." As a full-time public speaker specializing in spreading awareness and understanding of the transgender community, what Ben V. Greene hears most from parents and loved ones is the phrase "I'm sorry." They're sorry for using the wrong word, sorry for asking an offensive question, sorry for not knowing this already, sorry for asking a question at all. The combination of exhaustion from trans people who have become their community's designated educator and the growing trend of "canceling" anyone who says anything wrong has created a culture where people who have good hearts and minimal access to information are so afraid to make a mistake they don't even try. In My Child is Trans, Now What?, Greene breaks the mold by offering a judgement-free guide to people across generations who want to support their trans youth but aren't sure of the best way to do so. Greene focuses on providing two key resources in this book: information and emotional support. He details what families can expect, what systems exist to support trans youth, and what loved ones can do to help. Using a combination of personal stories and experiences, key definitions, clarifications, and additional resources, My Child is Trans, Now What? is an essential guide for anyone looking to help trans youth thrive.

The son of Jeanne de Valois de La Motte, infamous for stealing a priceless diamond necklace meant for Marie Antoinette, Nico hopes to restore his wronged mother's reputation, if only he can raise the funds.

When Titus offers Nico a space in his household, it's the perfect chance for him to exploit London's newest golden purse--until he falls in love with the man he needs to cheat. Still, Nico is sure they can have a happy ending together. If he can just find his way out of his own web of lies...

How to Fake It in Society

“A refreshingly honest approach to modern dating . . . Serena Kerrigan is the big sister you never had, and this book is the friend who grabs your hand and tells you like it is. Consider this your reminder to raise your standards.”—Paige DeSorbo, New York Times bestselling author of How to Giggle From the content creator, entrepreneur, and voice that over a million women swear by comes the only dating book that will give you a hug and a slap in the face. “I think I just need to be more chill.” “He said he didn’t want commitment and then got a girlfriend two months later.” “I’m running out of time.” “Everyone I know is engaged and I can’t get a second date.” If you’ve said any of these to your therapist, your group chat, or yourself at 1 AM, this book is for you. Let’s F*cking Date is the dating bible for women who want love, have standards, and are done apologizing for either. With laugh-out-loud humor and hard-won wisdom from years of getting it wrong, Serena Kerrigan covers everything from building an unshakeable foundation on your own to making love actually last. This isn’t another “just manifest the right person” book. It gives you real tools: • The List: separate your non-negotiables from your ego and stop chasing the wrong thing. • The 3P Theory: categorize every date as Potential, Practice, or Plot (so you stop overinvesting in Plot). • The Roster: date multiple people without losing your mind or your morals. • The F*ck No Funeral: a ritual for burying the situationship you should’ve ended three months ago. • The Glue: what actually holds a relationship together when the newness fades (and you’re arguing about the thermostat). You’re already the prize. Now act like it.

The legal concepts that can fundamentally inform the economics of institutions In Legal Institutionalism, the eminent economist Geoffrey Hodgson proposes a new analytic approach for understanding modern economic institutions. Law helps to constitute some of the key features of modern market economies. Moreover, there is evidence that many people believe that obeying the law is important in itself, especially when it is deemed just, legitimate, and uncorrupt. Consequently, he argues, the role of law must be considered in analyses of the nature and dynamics of modern economic institutions and the motivations of economic agents. Hodgson lays out the basic approach and intellectual assumptions of legal institutionalism, citing such thinkers as Adam Smith and Karl Marx as well as insights from institutional economics, law, philosophy, psychology, and social theory. He considers how legal institutions emerged and evolved throughout history, stressing their importance in large-scale, complex economies. Informal rules and relations are vital as well, he explains, but these often rely on face-to-face contact, with smaller numbers of people. He shows that by examining relevant legal rules and relations alongside important informal rules, we can improve our understanding of the nature and role of property, contracts, money, and firms. Revisiting the socialist calculation debate on the feasibility of socialist planning, Hodgson argues that both sides paid insufficient attention to legal issues and underestimated the importance and inevitability of mixed economies. This milestone work by Hodgson has major implications for both theory and policy, suggesting new approaches to economic development, the theory of the firm, and countering the policy extremes of markets versus states.

The Shortest History Series

When Britain's thirteen American colonies declared their independence on July 4, 1776, the United States of America was born. It became a profoundly powerful nation that, for much of its history, has been the crucible of invention and creativity, a refuge for millions, and a beacon of hope, freedom, and multiculturalism. But from the start, it was hardly united. In this insightful, evenhanded account, Don Watson highlights the key figures who fought for the country's inalienable rights and embodied its indomitable spirit-in politics and at home, on the frontiers and in its cities, in books and music and on screens. And he traces how the central conflicts of the United States-those over freedom, race, enterprise, religion, and violence-evolve through its history. As we witness a country at war with itself in the 1860s, leading the free world less than a hundred years later, and beset by wild division and turmoil in the twenty-first century, we see that this singular nation has never ceased changing-and that the American experiment continues to unfold. The Shortest History books deliver thousands of years of history in one riveting, fast-paced read.

Passionately Transforming Management

A critical exploration of how passion can create more effective organizations, Passionately Transforming Management restores curiosity and joy to management education. Climate change and the rapidly shifting balance of global geo-political power are changing the conditions within which organizations operate, and big data and AI are altering the criteria for a successful manager. By critically disrupting existing literature on management in education, O'Doherty and Hjorth reimagine a syllabus for management and organization by drawing on research that shows how successful businesses and entrepreneurs are those that have followed their private passions. Authored by leading members of the management and organization studies community with a wealth of experience, this concise book exposes the diverse potential of management in contributing to business success by foregrounding how passion - be it for science fiction, computer games, drum and bass, poetry or football - is vital to become a reflexive and effective manager. This is the ideal book for researchers in search of playful alternatives and advances in management theory and practice, original teachings in organization studies and critical management studies, and regenerative university course outlines and reading lists.
