Ben Smith's Traffic is the story of two online media rivals, Jonah Peretti of HuffPost and BuzzFeed and Nick Denton of Gawker Media, whose pursuit of attention at scale helped release the dark forces that would overtake the internet and American society. It explores one of the great ironies of our time: the internet, which was going to help the left remake the world in its image, has become the motive force of right populism. It is essential and enthralling reading to understand how we got here.

  • Inside the Dyslexic Mind - A resource for parents teachers and dyslexics themselves - cover

    Inside the Dyslexic Mind - A...

    Laughton King shares his understanding of the dyslexic mind from his own lived experience as a dyslexic child, an angry adolescent, a therapist and eventually an author. When describing what it is like to be dyslexic, he is includes himself. ‘We think in pictures, we chase words around the pages of books, and we have trouble finding any sensible connection between squiggles on paper and real things they are meant to refer to. And this all happens in perpetual reverse gear. You guessed it, for us, school is not cool, and for most of us this makes life tough’ 
    At the heart of this book is a ground-breaking concept — the diesel/petrol analogy. As Laughton describes it, a dyslexic person is like a diesel vehicle. They run perfectly if you give them the right fuel, but if you put petrol in the tank (i.e. expect them to learn like every ’normal’ child in our current education system) they break down. This book helps dyslexic (diesel) thinkers make sense of their lives, and provides valuable guidance for parents and teachers. 
    There is nothing wrong with the dyslexic child’s brain. They do not need medication and do not need to be ‘rewired’ nor ‘recalibrated’. Laughton’s message to parents and educators is that once they accept this processing difference and understand the dyslexic style of thinking they can readily work with these children and help them achieve their own success.

    Modern life offers an endless stream of comfort and convenience, but the truth is that this path is making us sicker and unhappier than ever. What if the key to optimal health isn't to avoid stress, but to harness it to make you better? Like the Greek hero Hercules at his crossroads, we face a choice: The easy path of the couch, social media, binge streaming and fast food, which leads to decline. Or the more challenging path of purposeful hardiness that builds true strength. The Hardiness Effect offers a revolutionary approach that goes beyond resilience, showing you how to harness your mind and body for a life well lived. 
     
    Dr Paul Taylor, psychophysiologist, ex-military aviator and award-winning author, reveals the practical actions that will help you move from coping to adapting. Combining ancient wisdom with cutting-edge research in exercise, nutrition, neuroscience and psychology, The Hardiness Effect will transform how you think about life. If, like Hercules, you choose to follow the harder path, you’ll find you can face life’s challenges with new determination, boost your physical and mental health, and even extend your longevity. 
     
    Master the four pillars of psychological hardiness: Discover the 4 Cs (challenge, control, commitment and connection), a framework that turns adversity into growth. 
     
    Harness hormesis to live longer and healthier: Apply the biological principle that small doses of stress make you stronger, with proven, step-by-step practices that trigger your body’s repair and anti-aging systems. 
     
    Tune your daily rhythms for peak performance: Learn how to supercharge your brain and energy through sleep hygiene, light exposure, breath work, omega-3 and Vitamin D, recovery protocols and more. 
     
    Reclaim your human nature: Combat loneliness and digital overwhelm by building meaningful relationships and reconnecting with the natural world. 
     
    Escape the comfort trap: Take back control from ultraprocessed foods, sedentary living and addictive technologies — and develop habits that create hardiness and boost wellbeing. 
     
     
    The Hardiness Effect shows you how to unlock your potential by building the psychological and physical toughness you need for lasting health and vitality. This science-backed, hands-on blueprint will show you how to transform challenge into strength and embrace a life of genuine purpose and fulfilment.
