  What happens when your life doesn't go according to plan?       Ryden Malby had a plan.  Step One: do well in high school, thereby achieving Step Two: get a kick-butt college scholarship.  Step Three - limit her beer pong in order to keep said scholarship - wasn't always easy. Now that she's finally graduated, it's time for Step Four: moving to LA to land her dream job at the city's best publishing house.  So far, Ryden's three-for-three, but she's about to stumble on Step Four….               When Jessica Bard, Ryden's college nemesis-the prettiest, smartest, most ambitious girl at school-steals her perfect job, Ryden's forced to move back to her childhood home in the Valley.  Stuck with her eccentric family - a karate-obsessed dad, a politically incorrect grandma, a spoiled-brat little brother - and a growing stack of rejected job applications, Ryden starts to feel like she's going nowhere.  The only upside is spending time with her best friend Adam-and running into her hot next-door neighbor David. But if Ryden's going to survive life as a post-grad, it may be time to come up with a new plan…

  Modern humans have come a long way in the seventy thousand years they’ve walked the earth. Art, science, culture, trade—on the evolutionary food chain, we’re true winners. But it hasn’t always been smooth sailing, and sometimes—just occasionally—we’ve managed to truly f*ck things up.Weaving together history, science, politics and pop culture, Humans offers a panoramic exploration of humankind in all its glory, or lack thereof. From Lucy, our first ancestor, who fell out of a tree and died, to General Zhou Shou of China, who stored gunpowder in his palace before a lantern festival, to the Austrian army attacking itself one drunken night, to the most spectacular fails of the present day, Humans reveals how even the most mundane mistakes can shift the course of civilization as we know it. Lively, wry and brimming with brilliant insight, this unique compendium offers a fresh take on world history and is one of the most entertaining reads of the year.

  The Management Humbug
  Authentic stories ironically debunk management myths
  
  Since the broadcast of the British sitcom "The Office" and such counterparts as France's "Le Bureau", Canada's "La Job" or Germany's "Stromberg", even the man in the street suspects that the world of management is not quite as illustrious as it may appear at first glance. While management gurus praise their unerring success strategies, management in real life looks rather different. Where managers refer to reason and rational decision-making citing business economics, the reality of management actually follows the rules of psychology and sociology.
  Typically, what managers like to sell as competence is essentially a myth distracting from the driving forces behind management: status, careerism, vanity … you name it. Looking at business from this angle can make management narratives wonderfully entertaining.
  In this book, the ex-manager and sociologist Dr. Ralf Lisch has recorded some of the best scenarios. He condenses his comprehensive practical management experience into ten paradigmatic stories from the wondrous world of international management.
  The result is an ironic broadside against arrogance and snootiness in management - proving that managers are no different from common folk.
  Target group: managers, future managers as well as everybody who wants to better understand how things really are in management.
