  Awaken your future sense and predict your own future! 
  The future is a game. And this book will teach you how to win planetary style! 
  Anne Skare Nielsen and Henrik Good Hovgaard are some of the most prominent futurists in the game. Together they run Universal Futurist and travel the world to teach leaders and other folks how to be a visionary, predict the future and create their own unique vantage point. Anne and Henrik are crazy enough to believe that futurists can change the world for the better, and their own mission is to win the Nobel Peace Price before they die. If you buy this book, you’re invited to the after party. 
  ‘Future Sense’ will teach you how to spot trends, how to keep focusing on your goals, overcome your worst fears and taboos, train new and future-oriented skills and visualize a future full of magic moments. 
  You’ll move on from being a passive and analytical observer to being an active and rebellious co-player. And you’ll attune your ‘MBS’ – an amazing navigation tool that teaches you how to combine your Mind, Body and Soul, so that you are able to see, feel and believe in the future you want to create. 
  With 'Future Sense’ in your hand, you’ll not just be able to navigate the future. You’ll also know how to design the rules of the game yourself. The future will no longer hit you on the way out, for you will be the futurist, who can change the rules of the game and create a better world for others. 
  ‘Future Sense’ unlocks a new and better mode called Planetary. And you can only win this mode if the other players win as well. Success in the future is not about ‘more,’ it’s about ‘better.’ 
  When you can predict your own future, you must use the insight you gain to create a better life, but you can’t do it on your own. If you’re in the game for ‘more,’ you might win, but you’ll ruin the whole world in the process.

  The Fall of Saigon - End of the...

  In the final phase of the Vietnam War, North Vietnam’s military strategy shifted into high gear. Following the 1973 Paris Peace Accords, which led to the withdrawal of U.S. troops, the North Vietnamese leadership viewed the South as vulnerable and unprotected. They seized this opportunity to begin a calculated and aggressive push toward Saigon. With the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) leading the offensive, key cities and regions across South Vietnam began to fall in rapid succession. Unlike earlier phases of the war, which were marked by a slow grind of guerrilla warfare and jungle battles, this stage saw well-coordinated, large-scale military campaigns. The North's confidence was bolstered by the perception that American military support would not return in a meaningful way. 
  This advance was not just a military endeavor—it was psychological. Each victory in the North’s campaign chipped away at the morale of South Vietnamese forces. Soldiers deserted in droves, supplies were stretched thin, and leadership at the local and national levels began to falter under pressure. In places like Ban Me Thuot and Pleiku, the speed of the North's takeover stunned both local populations and the South Vietnamese military, who had grown reliant on U.S. support during prior conflicts. Fear and confusion spread among civilians, many of whom began fleeing their homes in anticipation of the advancing northern troops. 
  The North Vietnamese did not rely on brute force alone. They combined strategic military planning with psychological operations to deepen the sense of inevitable defeat among South Vietnamese soldiers and citizens. Leaflets and radio broadcasts promised fair treatment to those who surrendered and warned of dire consequences for those who resisted. The result was an erosion of will more powerful than any bombing campaign. Defenses crumbled not only because of lack of resources, but because of fear and fatigue.

  The Gaslighting of America - How...

  In the last decade we have witnessed an unprecedented assault on the American people. Having seemingly appeared out of the ether, it has destroyed industry, family values, marriage, family relations, work ethic, morality, education, health care, independent thought, and the very basis of reality itself- language and the definitions of words. Its reach is all encompassing, with no stone left unturned. The American people are lost in a thick, heavy haze, dazed and confused at the completely alien world around them. How did we get to this point? How did nobody see it coming? Who is responsible? 
  “The Gaslighting of America” explores how the elite, the authorities, and the mainstream media have conspired to deceive the American people. Through the use of gaslighting, a psychological manipulation technique, they have created a false reality that serves their own interests, while undermining the very foundations of American society.

  Optimize your life using science-backed advice and discover how to get your brain working at peak efficiency.   We all know how to nudge our brains to perform better. A strong cup of coffee helps us get through a dull meeting, and a brisk walk helps us think more clearly. But what if some nudges could optimise how we focus, create and process information even more effectively, to take mental performance to new heights?   Today, most office workers are expected to operate with industrial-era efficiency. Yet the work that matters most in our technology-dominated workplace – generating brilliant ideas, solving complex problems, and learning – can’t be manufactured like outputs on an assembly line. Instead, we need a new, HYPEREFFICIENT way of working: rather than imposing the rhythms of work on our brains, Dr. Mithu Storoni proposes we impose the rhythm of our brains on our work. Storoni explains that our brains function like a car’s engine, with multiple gears that put our brains in optimal mode for different mental challenges. Drawing on the latest research, she shows us how to seamlessly shift our brains into the best gear for the tasks we need to be doing, so we can perform at our best throughout the day, every day.

  ***Evening Standard's best non-fiction 2021*** 
   
  'A brilliant, searing exposé of the lies underpinning work' - Owen Jones 
   
  'Work hard, get paid.' It's simple. Self-evident. But it's also a lie—at least for most of us. For people today, the old assumptions are crumbling; hard work in school no longer guarantees a secure, well-paying job in the future. Far from a gateway to riches and fulfilment, 'work' means precarity, anxiety and alienation. 
   
  In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by award-winning actor Libby Mai, Amelia Horgan poses three big questions: what is work? How does it harm us? And what can we do about it? While abolishing work altogether is not the answer, Lost in Work shows that when we are able to take control of our workplaces, we become less miserable, and can work towards the transformative goal of experimenting with 'work' as we know it. 
  Whether you listen on your commute, or while working from home, Lost in Work will empower you to see beyond the systematic problems you face at your job.

  The second section, New Zealand Wars, examines the series of 19th-century armed conflicts between the British Crown and various Māori iwi (tribes), driven by land disputes, cultural resistance, and the fight for sovereignty.  
  The final section, The Māori and the Pākehā, offers a broader understanding of the cultural and political dynamics between the Māori and the European settlers (Pākehā), exploring themes of adaptation, resistance, and the ongoing struggle for recognition and rights.
