How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

Two Paths to Prosperity

How do we design for connection?A sense of belonging is not a nice-to-have but a fundamental human need.

Yet as society becomes increasingly individualized and workplaces evolve, many people are left feeling disconnected and isolated.The Choir Effect introduces 12 practical principles for building trust, connection and belonging, drawn from scientific research, real-world examples and lived experience. Inspired by the remarkable bonding effects of communal singing, it explores what singing together reveals about human nature and translates those insights into practical tools for application in our everyday lives. Discover how to create environments where people feel safe, valued and connected, whether leading a team, strengthening personal relationships or building a community.At a time when loneliness, polarization and social fragmentation are on the rise, The Choir Effect offers a timely and hopeful response.

The Choir Effect

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMESBESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MONEY: A USER'S GUIDEWe vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?So why - in the privacy of the therapy room - does money emerge as one of the biggest causes of tension for modern couples? Why is it cited as the major factor in family estrangement between parents, children, and siblings? Why is there a trend for the 'Bank of Mum and Dad' to go to court to retrieve loans they regret handing over?In MONEY: A USER'S GUIDE, Laura showed us how to save into a pension and understand investment. This time, she delves into the really complex stuff - a non-judgemental examination of whether there is a "right" way to share our money with those we love, and what everyone else does behind closed doors. A book that none of us want to admit we need.How do you decide who picks up the bill, or what goes in the joint account? Is your partner being generous or controlling? Is this house mine if your parents paid most of the deposit? How much are you prepared to spend to have a baby? When should we give money to our kids, our mum and dad, our siblings, our community? Should they pay us back? What does everyone else do? Why don't we know? And why does it feel so agonisingly awkward to ask?This is a book of personal finance advice told through real stories about other people's modern money and relationship dilemmas.Laura speaks to financial advisers and wealth managers, marriage counsellors and matchmakers, philosophers, religious leaders, funeral directors and divorce lawyers, to get to the bottom of the questions that can be much more fundamental to our wealth and happiness than where to put our savings.

We vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?

The Modern Money Questions That Could Save Your Relationships

Yours or Mine?

A charred notebook, rescued from a long-forgotten fire, becomes an unlikely piece of evidence and catalyst to help unravel a century-old mystery.

When he was a child, the author first encountered the fragile remains of his great-grandmother Armina's notebook - an object so damaged and incomplete it seemed meaningless. Passed down through generations, its brittle, charred pages held only fragments, offering no clear story. Yet its quiet presence lingered, a puzzle waiting to be solved.

Years later, a chance discovery in the walls of a Missouri home would transform that childhood curiosity into a decades-long investigation. A hidden newspaper from 1892 revealed that Armina was not simply the kind and loving figure remembered in family lore, but the central figure in a sensational murder trial that captured national and international attention. Accused of killing her young stepdaughter and ultimately acquitted, her story had been scattered across archives and forgotten records for over a century.

Driven by the mystery of the burned notebook and the shadow it cast over his family's past, the author embarks on a meticulous reconstruction of the events surrounding that tragic day. Drawing from historical accounts, newspaper reports, and years of research, he pieces together a gripping narrative of suspicion, family conflict, and justice in Gilded Age America.

This is the story of a girl whose life was nearly erased, a crime that shocked a nation, and the enduring power of history to survive - even when the pages meant to preserve it have turned to ash.
