Filled with exclusive, sure-to-be-headline-making interviews, including unique insights from Jokic himself, Why So Serious? delves deep into the soul of the mysterious center and reveals how the big man developed his relentless work ethic, exceptional court vision, and magical playing style that has redefined dominance in the NBA.

About Daily Anxieties: A Month in the Life of an Ad Executive Was the phone on the cradle when you started your fusillade of profanity? Why aren't there retirement parties in your industry? Why does your alma mater publicly invest in every academic discipline except yours? These types of questions leap beyond the "Sunday scaries" that fluster people in other lines of work. They are the fodder of endless and indelible ruminations for advertising professionals, and they are the topic of this book. But Daily Anxieties is more than a catalogue of industry quirks -- it's a strangely comforting and witty companion for anyone who has ever survived a pitch week, navigated a client meltdown, or tried (and failed) to leave work at the office. For those already in advertising, these pages offer the warm reassurance that all the odd pressures, sleepless nights, and existential questions aren't personal flaws but shared occupational hazards. There's a certain relief in seeing your private frustrations reflected with honesty, humor, and just enough absurdity to make them feel survivable. For anyone thinking about entering the profession, this memoir doubles as an illuminating caveat. It presents the relentless pace, emotional whiplash, and institutional contradictions that often greet them once they arrive. It's an unvarnished look at what the business really demands, offering newcomers a clearer sense of the psychological terrain before they step onto it. Daily Anxieties is a month-long immersion into the questions, crises, and small victories that define life in advertising -- a mirror for insiders, and a reality check for those wondering whether to join them.

A Month in the Life of an AD Executive

Daily Anxieties

Leadership is rarely defined by titles or authority. It is shaped in moments of pressure, uncertainty, and responsibility for others. In The Art of Elevating Others, hospitality executive Thomas Lind reflects on the experiences that shaped his leadership philosophy while guiding teams in some of the world's most demanding hospitality environments--from Bangkok and Caracas to Riyadh, Chicago, Mexico, and India. Drawing on a global career that includes senior leadership roles with Four Seasons and other internationally recognized luxury hotel brands, Lind shares personal stories and observations from the front lines of leadership. These reflections reveal how culture, humility, accountability, and service shape both great organizations and the people who lead them. Rather than offering formulas or management theory, this book presents thoughtful reflections drawn from real-world leadership moments--many of them challenging, unexpected, and deeply human. In this brief but impactful book, readers will discover insights on: - Building trust across cultures and teams - Leading with calm and clarity during uncertainty - Creating environments where people can thrive &gt;The Art of Elevating Others is a reflective and practical look at leadership through the lens of hospitality--an industry where the standard for service, teamwork, and excellence is among the highest in the world.

Lim Siong Guan - The Best is Yet to Be provides insights into Siong Guan's past, his thoughts on the present, and his perspectives on the future, particularly on surviving and thriving in a world of "unknown unknowns".

But this is not a book about Siong Guan - it is about what he thinks readers would find useful as they contemplate their futures and strive to be the best that they can be.

Through Siong Guan's reflections, interviews with people who personally know him well, sharings from people who have worked with him, as well as media articles, you get a glimpse into Siong Guan's humble beginnings, his inspirational public service career from 1969 to 2019, and more. You will see how the future of Singapore and the people he works with have been his consistent focus and constant obsession.

This book shares how Siong Guan exceled in school and his career with a curious and searching mind, as well as a heart of empathy and service - never seeking fame or fortune, he chases opportunities not money, and seeks to serve rather than be served.

Working for Mr Lee Kuan Yew and Dr Goh Keng Swee, the powerful core of Singapore's founding leaders, Siong Guan saw first-hand how Singapore's success as a start-up nation came 
through innovation and creativity. And he believes Singapore's continued survivability requires an unswerving vision with even more innovation and creativity.

Mr Lee Kuan Yew brought Singapore from third world to first. Where does Singapore go from here?

Siong Guan digs into his 50 years of public service for pointers on where Singapore should go and how it can get there, so that Singapore can always be the home of opportunity, where "The Best is Yet to Be"!

When Jenny Evans was in her twenties, she was heady with the excitement of a promising acting career, but her world stopped when she was sexually assaulted by a man whose name was known in households everywhere - the 'Famous Man'. But this memoir isn't about him. Or what he did. It's about Jenny. The woman behind the headlines. After feeling like she'd lost herself, Jenny picked up the pieces and paved her way to a journey full of strength in the aftermath of devastation and fought back against the systems that caused her harm. Turning her hand to journalism, she investigated, and helped expose, the jaw-dropping press abuse and police corruption we now know as the 'phone hacking scandal'. But Jenny didn't stop there, now training as a lawyer, she's working to fight for justice in a system that so horrifically fails its victims. Don't Let it Break You, Honey is a powerful, deeply personal memoir that reflects on authority in fame, media, police and the patriarchy and questions whose voices we hear, whose story is believed and the rotten core of our institutions in which we place our trust. This is a story about saving yourself and fighting for the truth. This is the story of Jenny Evans.

A revelatory, jaw-dropping portrait of Tucker Carlson's career and his history of reinvention, and a story of how the right-wing media lost its mind.
New York Magazine writer Jason Zengerle's eye-opening narrative follows Tucker Carlson's infamous journey from gifted young intern at The Weekly Standard to a noxious talking head on Fox News, and then to his dethroning and defenestration.
In the tradition of Our Man and The Loudest Voice in the Room, Zengerle examines how Tucker Carlson's Zelig-like career offers a unique lens into the confusing, myopic, and utterly shameless evolution of American conservatism, its media presence and punditry, from the 1990s to the present.

Tucker Carlson and the unravelling of the conservative mind

Fasten your seatbelts, darlings, it's been one helluva ride. Liza Minnelli is one of the most iconic and enduring figures in entertainment history. Now, in her first and only memoir, Liza tells her story in her own words - and what a story it is. Born into Hollywood royalty, Liza was the daughter of legendary director Vincente Minnelli and the incomparable Judy Garland - and yet her beloved Mama's brilliance was matched by searing personal battles, making her mother both an inspiration and, at times, a source of fear. In this deeply candid memoir, Liza pulls back the curtain on her extraordinary life, from her meteoric rise to Broadway and Hollywood stardom to the whirlwind of high-profile marriages and scandalous affairs, as well as the private heartbreaks of multiple miscarriages and lifelong struggle with Substance Use Disorder. As told to her most beloved confidant, music icon Michael Feinstein, Liza relives the liberated nights at Studio 54, the activism and friendships that shaped her - including the likes of Frank Sinatra, Elizabeth Taylor, Halston, Mary J. Blige, Michael Jackson and Princess Diana - and the fearless way she defied conventions, embracing sexual fluidity and battling bigotry at a time of limited public understanding. But above all, as she turns 80 years old, Liza is reclaiming her truth, dispelling tabloid myths and setting the record straight with stories she's never shared before. Raw, strong, sexy, hilarious and unapologetically honest, this is a defiant celebration of self-belief, survival and humanity - proving once and for all why Liza remains one of the most captivating performers the world has ever known. Wilkommen to the world of Liza.

From eldest daughter Shari Franke, the shocking true story behind the viral&nbsp;8 Passengers&nbsp;family vlog –&nbsp;now the subject of a new Disney+&nbsp;docuseries –&nbsp;and the hidden abuse she suffered at the hands of her mother, and how, in the face of unimaginable pain, she found freedom and healing. Shari Franke’s childhood was a constant battle for survival. Her mother, Ruby Franke, enforced a severe moral code while maintaining a façade of a picture-perfect family for their wildly popular YouTube channel 8 Passengers, which documented the day-to-day life of raising six children for a staggering 2.5 million subscribers. But a darker truth lurked beneath the surface&nbsp;– Ruby’s wholesome online persona masked a more tyrannical parenting style than anyone could have imagined. As the family’s YouTube notoriety grew, so too did Ruby’s delusions of righteousness. Fueled by the sadistic influence of relationship coach Jodi Hildebrandt, together they implemented an inhumane and merciless disciplinary regime. Ruby and Jodi were arrested in Utah in 2023 on multiple charges of aggravated child abuse. On that fateful day, Shari shared a photo online of a police car outside their home. Her caption had one word: 'Finally'. For the first time, Shari will reveal the disturbing truth behind 8 Passengers and her family’s devastating involvement with Jodi Hildebrandt’s cultish life coaching program, 'ConneXions'. No stone is left unturned as Shari exposes the perils of influencer culture and shares for the first time her battle for truth and survival in the face of her mother’s cruelty.
