Yoo M: The Psychology of Luck

The Psychology of Luck

Korean Secrets for Attracting Wealth and Success

The Frankfurt School in New Times

Longstanding debates about neoliberalism in the United States center around whether it has created a culture of entrepreneurial selfhood or a carceral state. Credit, Cops, and Cages presents a novel theory and relevant empirical evidence arguing that capitalist individualism combines both of these tendencies. The book's interdisciplinary authors first derive a critical framework and set of social-psychological hypotheses from the long-neglected criminological writings of the early Frankfurt School. They then test and explore these hypotheses with new data and analyses in a series of chapters that guide the reader down the ladder of capitalist individualism. In the process, the authors synthesize and critically examine scholarship of Constitutional law; big data on indebtedness, segregation, and police militarization; psychological surveys capturing and comparing attitudes and emotions around debt and policing; and the intimate testimony of those who are deeply in debt or are currently incarcerated. Unique in its combination of philosophy and social scientific research, this book restores the relevance of the Frankfurt School's ideas and methods to a comprehensive understanding of contemporary U.S. society.

A Theory of Capitalist Individualism

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. This wide-ranging intellectual and media history traces China's emergence as a modern state in which boundaries blur between art and design, education and psychological conditioning. Tracking the parallel development of set design and social engineering from the 1920s to the 1960s, Background Matters examines the concept of huanjing (environment), a neologism introduced at the turn of the twentieth century that evoked heated intellectual debates and inspired frenzied aesthetic experimentation. Weihong Bao shows how efforts to reshape the mind consolidated the idea and art of environment by advancing a new theoretical notion of set design: both as aesthetic organization across film, theater, radio, and television and as social experimentation in worldmaking across geopolitical and transnational contexts. Inventive and breathtaking in scope, this book radically rethinks environment not as an external object but as the nexus of mind, medium, and society.

Background Matters: Volume 9

This brilliantly counterintuitive manifesto from the founder of Miss Excel - who's helped more than 2 million professionals work smarter - shows how pairing opposites, like hustle and rest or logic and creativity, sparks exponential growth in your work and life.You've heard the advice again and again. Hustle harder. Optimise every minute. Stay relevant or get left behind. Learn the tools. Master the tech. Push through.But somewhere along the way, ambition turned into exhaustion, and productivity stopped feeling productive.Kat Norton knows this tension firsthand. After burning out in corporate consulting and later building Miss Excel into a multi-million-dollar education company reaching over 2 million people, she discovered a counterintuitive truth: Real growth doesn't come from choosing one side of a spectrum. It comes from pairing opposites so they amplify each other.In Your Untapped Edge, Kat introduces a practical, repeatable framework for navigating modern work by holding "both/and" instead of "either/or," including how to:Identify where you're overusing one approach - and what's missing on the other sideDesign workdays around energy, not just timePair technical skills with mindset and nervous-system regulationUse AI as an engine while keeping human judgment as the edge Hustle becomes sustainable when balanced with stillness. Productivity accelerates when paired with purpose. Logic sharpens when it collaborates with creativity. Even AI becomes more powerful when guided by human intuition. Kat calls this dynamic polarity - the practice of intentionally pairing opposites so they amplify one another. This creates the 1+1=3 effect, and it's the hidden multiplier behind exponential progress.Through practical tools, science-backed mindset practices, and real-world workplace examples, Kat shows you how to make your hustle more holistic, so you can manage your energy, make clearer decisions, and balance priorities in ways that lead to promotions, increased impact, and sustainable momentum.

Beyond Progress series

In a world where working practices are increasingly transient and technological advancement is moving at breakneck pace, the ability to adapt and learn quickly has never been more important.This ability is known as learning agility. It is about having the motivation to rapidly learn from experience and to modify, experiment and apply that learning to meet a need, often in an unfamiliar situation or context. It requires the mind and skillsets to engage with change, take risk and adapt to solve problems creatively and quickly. This book uses the authors' Intero Model, which draws on learning theory, neuroscience and psychology, to explain this vital workplace skill to those looking to cultivate it themselves and leaders who want to develop it in their teams. Full of practical guidance, this book is an essential resource on the most important workplace skill of the day.Beyond Progress is a series about the skills that shape how you work, lead and grow. As jobs change and careers become less predictable, human skills like focus, adaptability and resilience matter more than ever. Straightforward and practical, these books help you build the confidence and judgment to handle anything work throws at you, collaborate seamlessly with others and keep growing in your career, no matter how the workplace evolves.

Learning Agility

Sooner or later, most successful people hit a wall. The energy that fueled your success starts to wear thin. The achievements that once felt meaningful no longer do. The path forward feels unclear. Meanwhile, the world around you is moving faster than ever. Something is changing--in you, around you, or both--and the strategies that once worked no longer produce the same results. In Unstuck, change leadership expert Vered Kogan and world-renowned executive coach Marshall Goldsmith explore why so many smart, capable people feel stuck and what it takes to break through. Drawing on decades of coaching high performers, they reveal that stuckness is not failure. More often, it points to your next level of growth. Blending behavioral science, leadership insight, practical tools, and deeply human stories, Unstuck helps readers recognize the hidden patterns driving stress, burnout, overthinking, perfectionism, and procrastination. You'll learn how to work with resistance instead of against it, regulate pressure before it hijacks your thinking, and create the internal conditions where real change can take hold. But this is about more than individual growth. It's also about helping teams and organizations break free from patterns that keep them trapped in outdated mindsets and ways of working. In an era of accelerating change, mounting complexity, and rising uncertainty, the leaders who thrive are those who can authentically influence others to grow and adapt under pressure. Unstuck offers a new playbook for navigating and leading change from the inside out, helping you build one of today's most valuable advantages: the ability to get unstuck and help others do the same.

How to Lead at Every Level

The Book of Leadership (Revised Edition)

**This edition will be released in March 2027. If you want to get a copy ahead of then, have a look at our hardback edition, released in May 2026.** 'If you're worried about wasting your life, read this book.' Rutger Bregman, author of Humankind A ridiculously in-depth guide to finding a fulfilling and impactful career in an age of AI. You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years. This means your choice of career is 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'. It's surprisingly out of date, focusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of AI. And if you want to help others, the advice is even more simplistic: telling you to choose careers like nurse or doctor, when there are paths in which almost anyone can save more lives. In fact, some careers have hundreds of times more impact than others, but most of us have no idea which ones. Benjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a non-profit that's spent over ten years researching how to have a meaningful and impactful career. Here he introduces a tried-and-tested toolkit framework that has already led thousands of people to change their path. It covers:<ul><li>What really makes for a dream job, and why finding it probably doesn't involve 'following your passion'.</li><li>How to identify which global problems are most pressing, and why they might involve AI as much as climate change.</li><li>Which roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn't among them.</li></ul> It's also full of practical tips and tools. You'll come away with a plan to use your 80,000 hours in a way that's rewarding and fulfils your potential to make a difference. '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

How to Have a Fulfilling Career That Does Good

80,000 Hours

In a world that worships disruption, the most revolutionary thing you can do is hold steady. For more than a decade, Whitney Johnson preached the gospel of disruption. She co-founded the Disruptive Innovation Fund with Clayton Christensen. Disruption is in her company's name. But over time, a pattern emerged: The leaders and organizations coming to her didn't need more disruption. They needed stability, the very thing our culture has trained us to overlook. Drawing on original research with over 300 professionals across industries, Johnson reveals a striking finding: 96 percent of employees want more stability or a balanced approach to change, yet they experience disruption at nearly twice the rate their managers perceive. The result? Burnout, turnover, and organizations that exhaust themselves with motion that never becomes progress. Meanwhile, research shows companies with stable foundations deliver 80 percent higher shareholder returns over a decade than their peers. Johnson's Steady will show you how to build stability within organizations, how to identify and champion the people doing the invisible work of holding things together, and how to cultivate the inner steadiness that lets you be a grounding force for others. For leaders who have leaned into disruption and found themselves exhausted, for those who sense the relentless churn isn't working, Steady offers a framework for something different. And for those who have been doing the stabilizing work all along, this book is a declaration: Your work matters. It has always mattered.

Daily Habits for Leading from Any Level

90 Days to Grow Your Influence

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.
