  The Analects of Confucius

  Confucius

  "Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance."
  
  China's first and greatest teacher, Confucius travelled from state to state as an itinerant philosopher. The Analects preserves his major teachings, as compiled by his pupils after his death in 497 BCE, and these conversations explore essential themes such as righteousness, self-cultivation, and the moral foundations of society, expressing a philosophy, or a moral code, by which Confucius believed everyone should live.
  
  Sometimes pithy, sometimes conversational, occasionally enigmatic, often profoundly searching, the book contains memorable sayings about the moral health of the individual, the family and the body politic, and continues to be a source of inexhaustible wisdom after more than two and a half millennia.
  Confucius (Kong Fuzi) was a Chinese philosopher and educator, born in 551 BCE in the state of Lu (modern-day Shandong Province). He is best known for founding Confucianism, a philosophical system that emphasises morality, social relationships, and justice. His ideas have influenced countless generations and his emphasis on morality, education, and governance continues to resonate, making him one of history's most significant philosophical figures.

  Speak up and persuade 
   
  At some point in our lives, we’ve all experienced an injustice, large or small—a 
  restaurant botching our lunch order or a boss who isn’t following the guidelines for 
  workplace etiquette—and suffered in silence for fear of offending anyone. When we 
  fail to speak up, however, we shortchange ourselves. Amy Fish encourages standing 
  up for yourself (and others) by complaining effectively. Her suggestions will appeal 
  to anyone who wants to speak up and isn’t sure where to start, including managers 
  navigating workplace disputes, couples who argue about the same things over and 
  over, and even someone with a friend with bad breath. Illustrating her points with 
  funny real-life stories, Fish reveals pragmatic methods to redress grievances with 
  civility, honesty, and fairness for everyone involved—whether you’re trying to right 
  the wrongs of the world or just claim the french fries you ordered.
