Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

According to Professor Noble, it is "much more than human and political geography," encompassing myriad forms of political and institutional structures - from monarchies to participatory republics - and its own traditions of political discourse. It involves choices about who gets to participate in any given society and the ways in which societies have resolved the tension between individual self-interest and the common good.

Unlike any book of its kind, The Way of Men offers a simple, straightforward answer - without getting bogged down in religion, morality, or politics. It's a guide for understanding who men have been and the challenges men face today. The Way of Men captures the silent, stifling rage of men everywhere who find themselves at odds with the overregulated, overcivilized, politically correct modern world.

Every salesperson must endure many NOs in order to get to YES. Objections don't care or consider: who you are, what you sell, how you sell, or if you are new to sales or a veteran. For as long as salespeople have been asking buyers to make commitments, buyers have been throwing out objections. And, for as long as buyers have been saying no, salespeople have yearned for the secrets to getting past those NOs. Objections is a comprehensive and contemporary guide that engages your heart and mind.

Everyone would benefit from seeing further into the future, whether buying stocks, crafting policy, launching a new product, or simply planning the week's meals. Unfortunately, people tend to be terrible forecasters. As Wharton professor Philip Tetlock showed in a landmark 2005 study, even experts' predictions are only slightly better than chance. However, an important and underreported conclusion of that study was that some experts do have real foresight.

From his perspective in Renaissance Italy, Machiavelli's aim in this classic work was to resolve conflict with the ruling prince, Lorenzo de Medici. Machiavelli based his insights on the way people really are rather than an ideal of how they should be. This is the world's most famous master plan for seizing and holding power. Astonishing in its candor The Prince even today remains a disturbingly realistic and prophetic work on what it takes to be a prince, a king, or a president.

A tender, powerful, and achievable path to the everyday resiliency we all need to navigate the uncertainty in our lives. An inspiring new voice in resiliency, Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe believes that our modern conception of resiliency as “fighting” or being “tougher” is misguided. Learning happens when we are able to trust and feel safe; fear and shame are barriers, not facilitators, for authentic growth, acceptance, and change. Dr. Robyne maps out a kinder approach to taking on the challenges of life and developing authentic self-alignment and balance.

What the critics say
Editorial Review
Robert Greene breaks down the main mantras, rules, and ideas behind gaining - and holding - power in his audiobook 48 Laws of Power. This inspiring and powerful listen will teach you all you need to know about how figures in history created power roles for themselves, from meeting people’s needs to offering selective honesty and how to exact the best revenge.
Considered by many to be a ‘cult classic,’ this New York Times and Los Angeles Times best seller has sold over a million copies. Learn how to understand the minds of others, cultivate and meet people’s fantasies, make people dependent on your leadership, and go all the way to the top of the power pyramid. Learn about laws like ‘never reform too much,’ ‘the art of seduction,’ or how to ‘act like a king,‘ as well as old-world thoughts on the laws of human nature, and how to use them to your advantage.
48 Laws of Power not only offers insight into powerful people and the power game at large but looks at the history - both informative and often twisted - that was the basis for so many of these laws. Often ruthless and very much ‘of the times,’ these laws must be viewed within their historical context. However, by analyzing them, we can see patterns and movements that can be applied today (with some adjustments); or critique those less-than-ideal laws used to oppress and keep others down. From Law 1: Never outshine the master, through to Law 15: crush your enemy totally and beyond, the 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene is an impressive breakdown of power politics throughout history.
