'ENTHRALLING ... A PASSIONATE, WELL-ARGUED AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING READ' - The Times AN AMAZON BOOK OF THE YEAR For readers of Chris van Tulleken, Tim Spector and Ben Goldacre: An international bestseller which reveals how modern-day crises have been caused by the medical establishment, and what you really need to know about your health. Is HRT unsafe? Should you avoid giving peanut butter to small children? Blind Spots uncovers how inaccurate research drives medical myths which can spark public health crises. Doctors said for decades that opioids were not addictive, igniting the opioid crisis. They refused menopausal women hormone replacement therapy, causing unnecessary suffering. They demonised natural fat in foods, driving patients to eat processed carbohydrates as obesity soared. Modern medicine shines when it draws on good scientific studies. But when medicine is led by dogmatic groupthink, it's everyday people who fall victim. Blind Spots examines the latest research to reveal the truths essential to our health.

When Medicine Gets It Wrong, and What It Means for Our Health

Blind Spots

A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2026 IN VOGUE, BBC, NEW YORK TIMES, W MAGAZINE, TOWN &amp; COUNTRY 'A beautifully written eulogy for the loss of a relationship' Joyce Carol Oates 'Beautiful... devastating ... Strangers reads with all the momentum and colour of water-tight literary fiction' British Vogue How do we go on when a loved one betrays us? On a chilly day in March of 2020, in the early days of the pandemic, Belle Burden's husband of twenty years announced, with no prior warning, that he was leaving her. His decision shocked Belle to her core: she believed he was a happy man, a committed partner, and a devoted father to their three children. She thought he was a man who had settled into the life he had always wanted: a successful career, summers spent at their beloved home on Martha's Vineyard, lots of tennis. Overnight, he transformed from her steady companion into a stranger. As she pieces her life together in the wake of a loss she had never imagined coming, she finds she is much stronger than she ever expected. Exploring the transformation of a shy, quiet girl, nicknamed 'Belle the Good' to a powerful, brave, determined woman who has learned to use her voice to expose the patriarchal structures that have forced women to be discreet and compliant for far too long, Strangers is a must-read memoir of self-discovery. 'Burden is an elegant writer ... As Strangers and myriad tv shows attest, even the most intimate and long marriages can yield nasty surprises. In the end, how well do you really know the person who lies next to you in bed every night?' Economist 'A compelling tale of marriage and deception... Strangers raises some serious questions about the nature of intimacy and what makes a "perfect" marriage ... She weaves the narrative together deftly: I devoured Strangers in about two days, greedily absorbing every twist and painful turn ... I loved it.' Lucy Denyer, Telegraph 'Examines how we view intimacy, how the people closest to us can change without us knowing, and how to move forward in the wake of devastation.' W Magazine 'Burden's sharp, personal writing brings readers deep into her unthinkable circumstances and offers a promise to anyone suffering: you can make it to the other side.' Town &amp; Country

A Memoir of Marriage

Strangers

For more than a century, management has been taught and practised as if companies were machines and business success a function of correct formulas. We built a managerial religion endowed with sacred terms like strategy, engagement, and competitive advantage-and we convinced ourselves that, with enough analysis and control, outcomes would follow intention. Yet step into any company and reality feels very different. Strategies fail despite knowledge, rationality, and coherence. Engagement programmes flourish while paradoxically causing fundamental harm to employee well-being. Unpredictability seeps into every plan. And success often appears not because of any clean causal design, but in spite of it. Drawing on various disciplines-physics, complexity science, social sciences, history, management, computation-and the author's own experience, the central argument of this book is simple, though uncomfortable: Modern management is built on the wrong epistemological foundations.You'll discover why managers cling to coherent narratives that don't reflect reality, why conventional practices mislead more than they guide, why success cannot be designed, and why survival and variation drive eventually success.

Why Conventional Management Fails - And What Really Works in a Complex World

The Myth of Management

This book examines the issues related to hybrid and remote working following the pandemic and the subsequent increase in returning to the office.While hybrid work is undoubtedly the 'new norm', for office-based jobs, the organisation of hybrid work arrangements continues to evolve, with many organisations attempting to adjust the balance to require workers to spend more time in the office. The book examines both traditional workplace issues (productivity, work/life relations, isolation and wellbeing, meetings, management) alongside workspace issues (virtual, office, mobile, and co- working), concluding with wider implications and potential future directions. Building on the latest research on hybrid and remote working, and including case studies from different countries, the book considers each issue from the perspective of organisations, managers, and the workers who undertake such forms of work. The author provides a balanced analysis of the topics examined, considering the diverse positive aspects of hybrid and remote working, as well as the challenges and difficulties that they can involve. He offers practical advice for hybrid workers, and those who manage them, to make these forms of work effective.The book will have wide-ranging appeal, including professionals such as managers and human resources workers, students and academics of business, and organisational and business psychology, and anyone interested in this fascinating and fast-evolving area.

A thorough assessment of asset performance, including safe-haven assets, highlights the limitations of traditional diversification strategies during crises. The publication concludes with insights into the resilience of financial frameworks and proposes a series of critical adjustments to avert future market crises.This book is an essential guide for researchers, finance professionals, and policymakers looking to better understand and manage systemic risks in the evolving post-pandemic financial world.

Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John be­came fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequi­ties that allow this curable, preventable infec­tious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year.

COVID-19 had an enormous impact on society around the globe. By 5th March 2023, when the WHO officially declared the pandemic emergency over, societies affected by it had been profoundly changed. The COVID-19 pandemic not only had medical consequences, but also significant effects related to the mechanisms involved in its discursive construction as a phenomenon of wide significance in various social arenas. Reaching a highly polarized form, public debate on compulsory vaccination against COVID-19 constituted an essential component of mechanisms not only for stance-taking, for creating opportunities for self- and other-positioning, and for covering discursive positions, but also for subverting existing epistemic orders. The present volume reconstructs this complex discursive phenomenon with examples from Italy, Germany and the USA, and invites critical reflections on the way societies around the globe have faced the extreme crisis sparked by the pandemic.
