Leaving the Ladder Down: How to...

Dolly Jones

A funny, practical and crucial guide for women facing the life-changing prospect of returning to work after having children.
When Dolly had her children, the idea of returning to the fast-paced, all-consuming job she had previously loved felt daunting and somehow unprecedented, despite it being the experience of so many millions of women. She struggled to find material to galvanise and reassure her, and to make her feel that anything was possible.
In this book, Dolly aims to change all of that. Interweaving practical advice and her own personal experiences with anecdotes, life-hacks and guilt-avoidance strategies from a diverse range of women – from fashion designers to taxi drivers, journalists to actors, lawyers to doctors, bankers, entrepreneurs and restaurateurs – Leaving the Ladder Down is a gift for the next generation of women taking on the trials, challenges and general amusement involved in combining career and motherhood.
Equally empowering and accessible, and featuring serious advice from employers, employment lawyers and health specialists to boost knowledge and confidence, this book acts as a ‘ladder down’ to the next generation of working women, from a generation who have experimented their way to making it work.
In Leaving the Ladder Down, Dolly Jones, a successful woman herself, shares her growth and development journey, offering top advice on parenting and relationships. This memoir, a blend of autobiography and self-help, is a must-read for those seeking counselling on balancing family and career.

Liberalism’s Last Man - Hayek in...

Vikash Yadav

A modern reframing of Friedrich Hayek’s most famous work for the 21st century. 
Friedrich Hayek’s The Road to Serfdom was both an intellectual milestone and a source of political division, spurring fiery debates around capitalism and its discontents. In the ensuing discord, Hayek’s true message was lost: liberalism is a thing to be protected above all else, and its alternatives are perilous. 
In Liberalism’s Last Man, Vikash Yadav revives the core of Hayek’s famed work to map today’s primary political anxiety: the tenuous state of liberal meritocratic capitalism—particularly in North America, Europe, and Asia—in the face of strengthening political-capitalist powers like China, Vietnam, and Singapore. As open societies struggle to match the economic productivity of authoritarian-capitalist economies, the promises of a meritocracy fade; Yadav channels Hayek to articulate how liberalism’s moral backbone is its greatest defense against repressive social structures.
