Засновницю стартапу Theranos називали наймолодшою мільярдеркою світу. 22-річна Елізабет Голмс переконала Америку в тому, що винайшла революційну систему аналізу крові, яка врятує життя тисячам людей.
Їй давали гроші найбагатші люди Кремнієвої долини, а Генрі Кіссинджер увійшов до ради директорів її амбітного стартапу. Згодом з’ясувалося: компанію побудовано на брехні, інтригах, панібратстві та шахрайстві. А технологія, що мала перевернути світ медицини, взагалі не працює.
І лише один журналіст попри все з’ясував, як саме Елізабет Голмс вдалось ошукати таке число найрозумніших людей Америки. Ця книга — приголомшливе розслідування, що здивувало навіть Білла Ґейтса.

У книзі представлено оригінальну концепцію і набір практичних інструментів для покращення міжособистісних стосунків, збалансування власних потреб і прагнень з потребами і прагненнями інших людей,а також для використання «мови» емоцій для більш повноцінного життя. В основі концепції лежить положення про те, що рівень психологічного благополуччя індивіда визначається належним співвідношенням його прагнень до особистої автономії та афіліації (розділеної автономії). Моделювання всього спектра таких співвідношень двома спіралями в одному кільці («кільці Макліна») дає наочне уявлення про сприятливі та загрозливі шляхи саморозвитку та розвитку інших.
Для обґрунтування своїх висновків і рекомендацій автор залучає теоретичні положення із численних першоджерел сучасної психології й соціології, пропускаючи їх крізь призму власного багаторічного досвіду практичного психолога й роздумів над шляхами покращення психологічного здоров’я. Одним із найважливіших теоретичних запозичень є концепція ідентичності за Е. Еріксоном. Саме ідентичність, а не риси особистості, автор уважає ключем для особистісного зростання.
Книга буде корисною для всіх теоретиків і практиків з особистісного розвитку, а особливо для практичних психологів, педагогів, вихователів, батьків, керівників команд і лідерів груп, а також для психологічної самоосвіти.

The Christmas Party is a delicious, page-turning story of romance, family and secrets, by the Sunday Times bestselling author Karen Swan. When Declan Lorne, the last remaining knight in Ireland, dies suddenly, an ancient title passes with him. But his estate on Ireland's rugged south-west coast is left to his three daughters. The two eldest, Ottie and Pip, inherit in line with expectations, but to everyone's surprise - and dismay - it is the errant baby of the family, Willow, who gets the castle. Why her? Something unknown - something terrible - made her turn her back on her family three years earlier, escaping to Dublin and vowing never to return. So when Willow quickly announces she is selling up, her revenge seems sweet and the once-close sisters are pushed to breaking point: in desperation, Pip risks everything to secure her own future, and Ottie makes a decision that will ruin lives. It's each woman for herself. Before moving in, Connor Shaye, the prospective new owner, negotiates throwing a lavish party at the castle just days before Christmas - his hello, their goodbye. But as their secrets begin to catch up with them, Ottie, Willow and Pip are forced to ask themselves which is harder: stepping into the future, or letting go of the past? What Karen's readers say . . . 'This is a perfect winter's day read, that will have you utterly absorbed...' 'Full of intrigue, secrets, heartbreak, love' 'If you're after a book with a truly Christmas feel, full of drama, mystery, heart and hope then The Christmas Lights is a book for you' 'Crammed with love, heartbreak and powerful secrets this Christmas story with substance is not to be missed!' 'The Christmas Lights is the perfect Christmas read . . . The festive season can now commence!'

“Our government jailed his body, but his soul remained that of a free man.” — From the Foreword by Man Booker Prize–winning author Richard Flanagan
In 2013, Kurdish-Iranian journalist Behrouz Boochani was illegally detained on Manus Island, a refugee detention centre off the coast of Australia.
He has been there ever since.
This book is the result. Laboriously tapped out on a mobile phone and translated from the Farsi.
It is a voice of witness, an act of survival. A lyric first-hand account. A cry of resistance. A vivid portrait of five years of incarceration and exile.
Winner of the Victorian Prize for Literature, No Friend But the Mountains is an extraordinary account — one that is disturbingly representative of the experience of the many stateless and imprisoned refugees and migrants around the world.

A new Penguin Special on the problems of the world and how to prepare for tomorrow - from the greatest public intellectual of our times. An essential overview of the problems of our world today - and how we should prepare for tomorrow - from the world's leading public intellectual. We have two choices. We can be pessimistic, give up, and help ensure that the worst will happen. Or we can be optimistic, grasp the opportunities that surely exist, and maybe help make the world a better place. Not much of a choice. From peerless political thinker Noam Chomsky comes an exploration of rising neoliberalism, the refugee crisis in Europe, the Black Lives Matter movement, the dysfunctional US electoral system, and the prospects and challenges of building a movement for radical change. Including four up-to-the-minute interviews on the 2016 American election campaign and global resistance to Trump, this Penguin Special is a concise introduction to Chomsky's ideas and his take on the state of the world today.

Наші мрії донедавна були пов’язані з міжгалактичними мандрівками та підкоренням космосу, квітами на Марсі й корисними копалинами на Юпітері… А поруч тривала розробка стратегій війн, армії шпигунів (або розвідників) наполегливо полювали на надсекретні дослідження. Інформаційна революція кінця тисячоліття змінила майже все. Сьогодні шпигунам не потрібно викрадати паперові документи з офісів чи підслуховувати розмови інженерів у кабінетах. Вони навчилися цупити інформацію віддалено, за допомогою комп’ютерних мереж. Відомий американський журналіст Шейн Гарріс ретельно дослідив етапи розвитку військово-мережевого комплексу США, питання кібершпигунства та стратегій кібервійн – війн майбутнього. Ця книжка стала підсумком його багаторічної роботи. Новітні технології тепер є буденністю в житті майже кожного з нас. Не варто їх недооцінювати. Інтернет приховує чимало несподіванок, загроз і пасток. Будьте пильними та обережними!

Wendy Wood is the world's foremost expert in the field, and this book is essential' - Angela Duckworth, bestselling author of Grit The scientifically proven way to easily make positive changes in your life by unlocking your habits, written the world's foremost expert on habits. Much of what we do, we do by habit. How we respond to the people around us; what we buy; when and how we exercise, eat and drink are nearly all done without conscious thought. And yet, whenever we want to change something about ourselves, we rely on willpower alone. We hope that our determination and intention will be enough to effect positive change. And that is why almost all of us fail. What if you could harness the extraordinary power of your unconscious mind, which already determines so much of what you do, to achieve your goals? Drawing on three decades of original research, Wendy Wood shows how habits are stress-resistant, that varying rewards leads to faster and more effective habit formation, and why the oft-repeated idea that forming a habit takes twenty-one days is wrong. Explaining the fascinating science of how habits form, Wood provides the key to unlocking our habitual mind in order to make the changes we seek.

Bret Easton Ellis is most famous for his era-defining novel American Psycho and its terrifying anti-hero, Patrick Bateman. With that book, and many times since, Ellis proved himself to be one of the world’s most fearless and clear-sighted observers of society – the glittering surface and the darkness beneath.
In White, his first work of non-fiction, Ellis offers a wide-ranging exploration of what the hell is going on right now. He tells personal stories from his own life. He writes with razor-sharp precision about the music, movies, books and TV he loves and hates. He examines the ways our culture, politics and relationships have changed over the last four decades. He talks about social media, Hollywood celebrities and Donald Trump.
Ellis considers conflicting positions without flinching and adheres to no status quo. His forthright views are powered by a fervent belief in artistic freedom and freedom of speech. Candid, funny, entertaining and blisteringly honest, he offers opinions that are impossible to ignore and certain to provoke.
What he values above all is the truth. ‘The culture at large seemed to encourage discourse,’ he writes, ‘but what it really wanted to do was shut down the individual.’ Bret Easton Ellis will not be shut down.
