A guide to breaking free from the enduring, and sometimes damaging, behavioral patterns learned in childhood.

This book is a guide to better understanding our younger selves in order to shape who we wish to be in the future. It explores to what extent we can pin our actions in the present to our experiences in the past, and how we might then break free from the learnt patterns of our childhoods.

*NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* As seen in The Financial Times Business Books of the Month "If you work, and you talk, you need this book." - Jefferson Fisher, bestselling author of 'The Next Conversation' From the creator of AdviceWithErin, the 'internet's big sister' for your career, comes the straight-talking guide to what to say at work-and how to say it with confidence. You know that moment. You're in an interview, on a Zoom, or sitting in a meeting. Someone says, "Tell me about yourself." And your mind goes blank. What are they really asking? Why does everyone else seem to know the rules? And why didn't anyone teach us this? Erin McGoff is here to do just that. In The Secret Language of Work, Erin shares her signature, customisable scripts to help you handle the moments that matter most, from interviews and salary negotiations to setting boundaries, speaking up in meetings, navigating office politics and advocating for yourself. You'll learn exactly what to say, word for word, so you can stop second-guessing and start showing up with clarity. Learning how to say the right words, in the right order, in the right way, at the right time, is an art that too few people are taught. But communication is the ultimate career advantage. And it's a skill you can learn. With Erin's practical advice and no-nonsense scripts, you'll master the secret language of work, build real confidence, and create the career you deserve.

Hyper-Helpful Scripts for Every Situation

The Secret Language of Work

A ground-breaking look at the science of love and connection - and an urgent corrective to some of our most fundamental assumptions about attraction. 'In a world saturated with cynical advice about dating and gender, this book is a revelation.' DANIEL H. PINK, author of Drive and The Power of Regret 'One of the most joyfully uplifting antidotes to 21st-century gloom.' THE TIMES --------------------- We're told that what men and women desire from relationship is different - he's looking for novelty, she's looking for commitment; he's concerned with looks, she's concerned with status. We're told that we live in a hierarchy of romantic inequality - where some are 10s and others are 2s; where some people are marriage material and others are wired for promiscuity. But this narrative is unscientific. Such ideas have their roots in a branch of science called evolutionary psychology, and over the past few decades its ideas have permeated our culture and fuelled a narrative that inspires despair and anxiety - and, in its most extreme form, these ideas have been hijacked in the service of misogyny and violence. But the truth about human attraction - and the way evolution plays out in our romantic lives - is much more interesting and optimistic. Bonded by Evolution offers a radical new picture of the roots of enduring chemistry. Distilling evolutionary biology, anthropology and psychology and informed by his pathbreaking research and original experiments at the Attraction and Relationships Research Laboratory in California, psychology professor Paul Eastwick reveals how attraction is best depicted as a process of finding - and, often, creating - a compatible relationship. Once we understand how ancestral humans sought compatible partners in small networks, we can build a clearer - and brighter - picture of how attraction, sex and relationships really work. --------------------- More praise for Bonded by Evolution: 'Profound and pragmatic, suggesting an entirely different approach to the study - and pursuit - of love.' ERIC KLINENBERG, co-author of Modern Romance 'Rarely have scientific rigor and exuberant optimism been such congenial companions . . . Bonded by Evolution presents an optimistic new paradigm, one that provides clear guidance for romantic success.' ELI FINKEL, author of The All or Nothing Marriage

Plötzlich bleiben die Wörter stecken: Jenni stottert. Von heute auf morgen verliert die schlagfertige Lehramtsstudentin nicht nur die Fähigkeit, flüssig zu sprechen, sondern auch ihr Selbstvertrauen. Und damit ist sie nicht allein. Etwa eine Million Menschen in Deutschland stottern, nur merkt man ihnen das häufig nicht an. Sie haben Techniken gelernt, wie sie mit ihrer Sprachbehinderung umgehen können, wie sie Silben überbrücken und Worte herausbringen, die sich vehement dagegen sträuben. Das ist harte Arbeit, die oft Jahre in Anspruch nimmt, in denen die Betroffenen mit Hänseleien, Ausgrenzung und psychischen Begleiterkrankungen konfrontiert sein können.Jennifer Springer erzählt, wie das Stottern ihr Leben verändert hat, welche Herausforderungen sie tagtäglich meistert und was ihr geholfen hat, mit dem Stottern zu leben. Ein ehrliches, witziges und informatives Buch für Betroffene, Angehörige und Interessierte, über die 'Scheißtage' und die kleinen Siege.

Die Zukunft ist das, was wir daraus machen!Unsere Gegenwart ist geprägt von einer Dauerkrise, die viele Menschen lähmt und ein Gefühl der Machtlosigkeit hervorruft. Doch die Zukunft ist das, was wir daraus machen, davon ist Magdalena Rogl überzeugt. Wir sind nicht machtlos, denn wir besitzen ein oft übersehenes Werkzeug: Verantwortung. Wenn wir alle beginnen, in kleinen Schritten im Alltag Verantwortung zu übernehmen - für uns selbst, für unsere Mitmenschen, unsere Privilegien, den digitalen Raum, für Gesellschaft und Demokratie -, können wir Großes erreichen und die Zukunft aktiv mitgestalten. Magdalena Rogl spricht aus Erfahrung: Als alleinerziehende Kinderpflegerin musste sie früh Verantwortung übernehmen - heute ist sie erfolgreiche Keynote-Speakerin und eine der relevantesten Stimmen für empathische Führung, gesellschaftlichen Wandel und gelebte Verantwortung in Deutschland. Für ihr Buch spricht sie mit Menschen, die ihre Erfahrungen teilen, konkrete Ideen und Impulse geben und zeigen, wie genau man ins Tun kommen kann. Denn es geht um Haltung und Mut, nicht um Perfektion oder Wut.&nbsp;

Wie wir uns aus der Machtlosigkeit befreien, Verantwortung übernehmen und die Zukunft zurückerobern

Using an aesthetic culture and techniques termed as jihadi cool, terrorist groups have been able to recruit members from around the world, so how do we begin to respond? This book analyzes the rhetorical and ethical dynamics of a culture of jihadi cool/chic, and why these rhetorical and aesthetic techniques have been such a powerful recruitment force for particular transnational terrorist groups. The author uses an evidence-based approach, with frameworks derived from law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, to examine various attempts to construct counter-narratives to the jihadi cool master narrative. The book closes with an examination of how to begin to respond critically and effectively to the lure of jihadi cool.

State Trials, Volume II (first published in 1972) contains cases concerned with witchcraft, the scandals of the prisons, and colonial administration gathered from the full edition of State Trials completed in 1826. The author has selected some of the most interesting and important trials for this volume.The book includes a general introduction, explaining the significance of State Trials as a whole. Each selected case is then introduced by a short essay, which explains the events surrounding the trial and its importance in relation to legal history. State Trials will always be one of the most vivid and fascinating accounts of English life in all documentary literature. Tales of murder, treason, bigamy, adultery, political conspiracy, the scandals of the prison system, and the brutality of imperial conquest are told through the words of the great and the humble. Murderers, pornographers, conquerors, and heroes, all come alive in their own words. This book will be a fascinating read for students and researchers of law and history, and general readers interested in the topic.

The Public Conscience

State Trials, Volume II

Over the last twenty-five years, the concept of per-sonhood has become central to many contentious debates. Corporations have won free speech protections, as if they were individuals. The right to life or freedom has been claimed on behalf of fetuses, trees, and elephants. The fund of human rights is spilling over into the nonhuman. The Problem of Personhood reveals the unsettling consequences of granting rights to imagined persons, such as Sophia the robot citizen or New Zealand’s Whanganui River. Synthesizing the political and phil­osophical debates on personhood and drawing on a varied cast of thinkers that includes Simone Weil, Hannah Arendt, and Dr. Seuss, Lisa Siraganian un­covers the disturbing impact of this contemporary development. Awarding rights to robots and rivers all too easily becomes a legal tool to turn people into capital. When robot Sophia is made a citizen, "she" is transformed into a subject in the law without the corre­sponding legal duties that protect us from her. At the root of this trend is the US Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling that grants First Amendment rights to corporations as if they were individuals. The result has not been the transformation of things into humans so much as humans into things, when animals and the environment would be better protected with reference to our humanity rather than to theirs.

Giving Rights to Trees, Corporations and Robots

The Problem of Personhood

Drawn from the American Prison Writing Archive, a pivotal anthology of essays by incarcerated writers about the prison's role in perpetuating harm

Prison is neither the beginning of the inquiry nor the end. Thus, writers from across carceral institutions in the US unfold the multiple and intersecting ways that violence shapes and informs their lives, prior to, during, and after incarceration. They illuminate violence as a contextual phenomena shaped by historical trauma, cycles of deprivation, and systemic inequities. Harm and Punishment reveals the interconnectedness of personal and structural violence, tracing the way violence often emerges within the fabric of communities profoundly shaped by poverty, racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia.

The stories, testimonies, and reflections collected here serve as bridges toward a new imagination. They expose the limitations of punishment and move us closer to a vision of collective care and mutual responsibility. In bearing witness to the experiences of incarcerated writers, readers become part of a profound shared endeavor to dismantle the barriers of misunderstanding and fear, opening pathways to action and change.&nbsp;

Harm and Punishment

You definitely know one. This book is about the poisonous people who walk among us. The romantic partner who twists every conversation, the office bully who keeps being promoted, or the reckless relative who never takes responsibility for their actions.&nbsp; Award-winning researcher Leanne ten Brinke has studied dark personalities for decades, examining their behaviour in settings as varied as prisons, schools and financial boardrooms, even in the United States Senate. Dr ten Brinke uses a mixture of new science and storytelling to: &nbsp;<ul><li>help you identify dark personalities&nbsp;</li><li>understand how they cause so much harm</li><li>take evasive action before you become their target</li><li>prevent bad behaviour&nbsp;</li><li>decide if you should leave</li><li>get out of toxic situations unscathed</li></ul> The latest research shows that a relatively small number of people are bringing the rest of us down. This insightful, humane, optimistic and empowering book gives you powerful, evidence-based tools to neutralise their poison and improve your life.

Poisonous People

When individuals invoke their identity in court, they seek to strengthen their claims - but what does "identity" mean in legal terms? This study explores why and how law ascribes identity to individuals, arguing that the concept becomes theoretically coherent only within anti-discrimination law. Examining the categories of 
 gender
 , 
 religion
 , and 
 disability
 , it shows that the law treats identity as both mutable and immutable. Drawing on case law from gender registration, health and social insurance claims of transgender persons, recognition of queer and religious refugees, constitutional protection of religion, and disability rights, the author uncovers a fundamental contradiction: the very categories meant to protect individuals also define and limit them. Through an immanent critique and a systematic dialogue with Hegel's theory of freedom and "second nature", the study conceptualises identity as both contradiction and form of freedom. Legal identity, understood in this dialectical sense, is the condition for self-determination within liberal anti-discrimination law. The author concludes that only a dynamic-yet not arbitrary-treatment of legal categories can sustain freedom without dissolving its normative coherence.
