Summary

'Chaos vs Order' delves into the fascinating relationship between organization and disorder in human psychology, revealing how our physical environment profoundly impacts our mental capabilities and overall well-being. The book uncovers the startling fact that the average person loses 2.5 hours daily to managing disorganization, while exploring how different organizational styles can either enhance or impede cognitive function, depending on individual personality types and circumstances.

 
Through a careful blend of neuroscience, organizational psychology, and behavioral research spanning four decades, the book challenges the common assumption that complete order is always beneficial. Instead, it presents a nuanced view of how the brain operates optimally within organized systems while simultaneously requiring elements of controlled chaos for creativity and innovation. The author expertly weaves together findings from workplace efficiency studies, neuroimaging data, and environmental psychology to create a comprehensive understanding of how our surroundings affect our mental processes.

 
Beginning with the neurological foundations of organization and chaos, the book progresses through practical applications in workplace and home environments, culminating in evidence-based strategies for optimizing one's space and routines. What sets this work apart is its balanced approach, acknowledging that while structure is crucial for productivity, some degree of disorder may actually enhance creative thinking and problem-solving abilities. The book provides readers with practical frameworks to assess their organizational needs and implement personalized strategies, making it an invaluable resource for professionals, individuals struggling with organization, and anyone interested in the psychology of environmental order.

    Universities play an indispensable role within modern democracies. But this role is often overlooked or too narrowly conceived, even by universities themselves. In What Universities Owe Democracy, Ronald J. Daniels, the president of Johns Hopkins University, argues that—at a moment when liberal democracy is endangered and more countries are heading toward autocracy than at any time in generations—it is critical for today's colleges and universities to reestablish their place in democracy. 
 
 
 
Drawing upon fields as varied as political science, economics, history, and sociology, Daniels identifies four distinct functions of American higher education that are key to liberal democracy: social mobility, citizenship education, the stewardship of facts, and the cultivation of pluralistic, diverse communities. By examining these roles over time, Daniels explains where colleges and universities have faltered in their execution of these functions—and what they can do going forward. 
 
 
 
Looking back on his decades of experience leading universities, Daniels offers bold prescriptions for how universities can act now to strengthen democracy. For those committed to democracy's future prospects, this book is a vital resource.

    "This might sound like a back-handed compliment, but it is not meant to be: I cannot think of a better, more elegant or more articulate guide to mistruth than Kathleen." – Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland: How Imperialism Has Shaped Modern Britain
***
"There are a few secrets," he tells me. "A few discoveries that I've never published. Some of the most powerful ones. I wouldn't betray them under torture."
In a time of deep fakes, alternative truths and leaked secrets, it would be easy to think that we are surrounded by lies. While most people are shaking their heads and muttering dark things about the new levels of deceit, former Times journalist Kathleen Wyatt is busy marvelling at how society manages it.
How do we do this extraordinary thing, often under the most ordinary of circumstances? When do we first do it, why do we do it and do we really tell more lies today? Wyatt goes deep into disinformation to find out – but given her own lies, can she even be trusted on this subject?
In this brilliant, wide-ranging study of lies and lying, Wyatt introduces us to a cast of professionals and professional liars – from scientists to investigators, from double agents to toddler specialists, from a fallen titan of industry to a Nobel Peace Prize-winning journalist. Together, they all help her prove a remarkable thesis: lies hold us together as much as they push us apart and they play a vital role in a healthy society.
