  Girl gangs reigning terror at Facebook, narcissistic overlords at Google . . . this is the backdrop of Lean Out, which takes readers on the journey of Marissa Orr, a single mom of three trying to find success in her fifteen-year career at the world’s top tech giants. Orr delivers an ambitious attempt to answer the critical question: What have we gotten wrong about women at work?  
  “This book is a must-read for insights on the impact that reversing systemic gender biases can have on creating more diverse, healthier workplaces for both women and men.” 
  --Joanne Harrell, Senior Director, USA Citizenship, Microsoft 
   “This book will make you think differently about what it will take for women to succeed at the highest levels in American business.” 
  --Rishad Tobaccowala, Chief Growth Officer, Publicis Groupe 
  Lean Out offers a new and refreshingly candid perspective on what it’s really like for today’s corporate underdogs. Based on both in-depth research and personal experiences, Orr punctures a gaping hole in today’s feminist rhetoric and sews it back up with compelling new arguments for the reasons more women don’t make it to the top and how companies can better incentivize women by actually listening to what they have to say and by rewarding the traits that make them successful. 
   In Lean Out, Orr uncovers:Why our pursuit to close the gender gap has come at the expense of female well-being.The need to redefine success and change the way corporations choose their leaders.The way most career advice books targeting professional women seek to change their behavior rather than the system.Why modern feminism has failed to make any progress on its goals for equality. 
  More than fifty years since the passage of the Equal Pay Act, the wage gap still hovers at 80 percent, and only 5 percent of CEOs in the Fortune 500 are women. Today, rising up the ranks in many companies still often means cutthroat, win-at-all-costs tactics, where being the loudest voice in the room is more important than being the person with the best ideas for moving the company forward. Not surprisingly, most women don’t want to play this game. 
   An everyday working woman with a sardonic sense of humor, Orr is an endearing antihero who captures the voice for a new generation of women at work. Lean Out presents a revolutionary path forward, to change the life trajectories of women in the corporate world and beyond.

  Sowing Hate and Chaos - How...

  If you've been baffled at how citizens of the United States, even people you know, could turn against their democracy, there is an answer. There is a method of psychological manipulation that can be used to turn someone from a citizen of a peaceful democratic society into someone who feels he or she must destroy the existing political system to save their nation. It has been used successfully to collapse nations in violent chaos and install autocratic regimes at least four times in the last century. Now it's being used against American citizens through social media and other channels, with startling results. 
   
  Mary Wald's meticulously researched book, Sowing Hate and Chaos, pulls the curtain back to show how what is happening in our country isn't a natural evolution of events or "pendulum swing," but a carefully planned and executed campaign that uses experimental and behavioral psychology to manipulate the American people toward hatred and violence—without their even realizing it's happening. 
   
  "The world is astonished to witness events in the United States and the willingness of some Americans to dismantle their own democracy. Sowing Hate and Chaos, written by one of my most trusted associates, is a vital work for understanding and navigating the dangerous waters ahead for the United States and other democracies." –José Ramos Horta, President Timor-Leste, Nobel Peace Prize laureate

  Born with the proverbial silver spoon in her mouth, the Honorable Diana Frances Spencer attained wealth, power, and title with her marriage to Charles, Prince of Wales. But her ultimate triumph owed nothing to those circumstances and everything to her inner qualities: an innate ability to understand and connect with ordinary people, particularly the desperately sick, the rejected, the "unloved." Biographer and journalist Peter Donnelly recounts the remarkable story of Diana's unhappy childhood, her fairy tale marriage, and the recriminations and unhappiness surrounding her divorce—and in particular, how Diana captured hearts all over the world to become the people's princess.

  Contemporary scientifically-informed culture investigates the phenomenal world revealed to our mind, senses and technical instruments. Non-duality looks within to the nature of the experiencing subject. Both spring from the need to know, grow and fulfil the supreme potential of human beings, who find the universe apparently manifesting consciousness as themselves. Non-duality offers a path of enquiry into the metaphysical questions underlying physics, and scientific discoveries shed light on what is universal and essential in the non-dual teachings to be found at the heart of all the great wisdom traditions.
