  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In "Outliers: The Story of Success" by Malcolm Gladwell, the author explores the factors that contribute to the extraordinary success of individuals, moving beyond the typical explanations of talent and ambition. The book delves into various case studies, from geniuses and business tycoons to rock stars and athletes, to uncover the hidden advantages, cultural legacies, and opportunities that play a critical role in their achievements. Gladwell argues that success is not simply a result of individual effort and innate ability, but rather a product of a complex interplay of various factors such as family background, birth date, and cultural heritage. The narrative examines the "10,000-hour rule" which demonstrates the importance of practice and dedication to mastering skills, and the concept of "accumulative advantage" to understand how advantages can compound over time. In addition, the book investigates how cultural values, such as the work ethic of rice farming societies or the communication styles of different cultures, can significantly impact success in different fields. The author proposes that by looking beyond the individual, we can better understand the logic behind who succeeds and who does not.

  A Light in the Tower - A New...

  Katie Rose Guest Pryal

  With evocative storytelling and incisive research, Katie Rose Guest Pryal brings a new eye to the mental health crisis that higher education has faced for decades. Written from the perspective of a bipolar-autistic professor, A Light in the Tower is both a bracing account of the mental health crisis in higher education and a passionate and informed proposal for how to teach with mental health in mind. 
   
   
   
  Pryal contends that higher education's mental health crisis is the result of long-term systemic problems in education that demand nothing short of a revolution. She examines the anxiety that plagues campuses as a result of exploited and overworked contingent faculty and students, the shock events like COVID-19 and campus shootings that traumatize communities, the systemic and institutional burnout that affects higher education at every level, and the market-driven culture of toxic overwork. These are large-scale problems that need large-scale solutions. Addressing the stigma that haunts mental disability on campus, the ableism that hounds our teaching, and the cascade of mental health struggles that far too many faculty and students face, Pryal provides straightforward solutions to these complex challenges.

  We broke our new series on learning French down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
  This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise French.  
  In Unit 1 you will hear French decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
  Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native French speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand French. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in French at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken French, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
  In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.
