Summary:

A peak-performance psychologist and coach on the simple steps anybody can take to unlock your full potential and achieve your best with calm and control

We assume that heroes are wired differently from the rest of us. They overcome fear, doubt and pain to thrive under the most challenging conditions. But the only difference between them and us is choosing resilience: the ability to dig deep and be curious enough to explore life at the edge of possibility.

In this practical handbook on building and sustaining your own resilience, peak-performance psychologist Dr Alia Bojilova draws on her work with the SAS, Olympic athletes, contemporary leaders and successful entrepreneurs to help you unlock your potential in everyday life.

Guiding readers through a four-step process – to develop clearer awareness, deeper belonging, broader curiosity, and stronger drive – The Resilience Toolkit is a proven playbook on embracing the unknown with greater confidence and learning to recover faster from setbacks.

The real measure of resilience is whether you choose to discover what you're capable of. So ... will you?

Title: Why Animals Talk: The New Science of Animal Communication

Author: Arik Kershenbaum

Narrator: John Hastings

Format: Unabridged

Length: 08:40:52

Language: English

Release date: 01-25-24

Publisher: PGRH UK

Genres: Science & Technology, Animals & Nature, Language Instruction, Language Arts

Summary:

Brought to you by Penguin.

Why Animals Talk is an exhilarating journey through the untamed world of animal communication. Drawing on the author's extensive research and observations of animals in the wild, the book shatters conventional wisdom and invites you to experience communication through the eyes of animals themselves.

From the majestic howls of wolves and the enchanting chatter of parrots to the melodic clicks of dolphins and the spirited grunts of chimpanzees, these diverse and seemingly bizarre expressions are far from mere noise. In fact, they hold secrets that we are just beginning to decipher. For example, wolves - just like humans - possess unique accents that distinguish their howls, and not only do dolphins give themselves names, but they also respond excitedly to recordings of the whistles of long-lost companions.

Why Animals Talk unravels the mysteries of animal communication, and in doing so reveals profound insights into our own language and how it relates to the world around us.

Title: Empireworld: How British Imperialism Has Shaped the Globe

Author: Sathnam Sanghera

Narrator: Homer Todiwala

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:30:00

Language: English

Release date: 01-25-24

Publisher: PGRH UK

Genres: Politics, History

Summary:

Brought to you by Penguin.

Empireland examined imperialism's lasting impact on Britain.

Empireworld traces the legacies of British empire across the globe.

2.6 billion people are inhabitants of former British colonies. The empire's influence upon the quarter of the planet it occupied, and its gravitational influence upon the world outside it, has been profound: from the spread of Christianity by missionaries to nearly 1 in 3 driving on the left side of the road, and even shaping the origins of international law. Yet Britain's idea of its imperial history and the world's experience of it are two very different things.

In Empireworld, award-winning author and journalist, Sathnam Sanghera extends his examination of British imperial legacies beyond Britain. Travelling the globe to trace its international legacies - from Barbados and Mauritius to India and Nigeria and beyond - Sanghera demonstrates just how deeply British imperialism is baked into our world.

And why it's time Britain was finally honest with itself about empire.

PRAISE FOR EMPIRELAND

'Empireland, [a] scorching polemic on the afterburn of empire' Ferdinand Mount, Financial Times

'This book should be on the compulsory reading list of every secondary school in the country' John Simpson

'A compelling and distressing look at how imperialism has defined modern Britain' David Harewood

'I am sold on the larger part of Sanghera's thesis, that the empire could be rotten and we didn't know enough about it . . . The history is on Sanghera's side. The facts speak for themselves' Tim Stanley, Daily Telegraph

Narrator: Dion Graham, Emily Woo Zeller, Feodor Chin, P.J. Ochlan, Vikas Adam

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:49:41

Language: English

Release date: 01-25-24

Publisher: PGRH UK

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Mystery, Thriller & Horror, Political Thriller, War & Military

Summary:

Brought to you by Penguin.

From two former military officers and award-winning authors, a chillingly authentic geopolitical thriller that imagines a naval clash between the US and China in the South China Sea in 2034 and the path from there to a nightmarish global conflagration

On 12 March 2034, US Navy Commodore Sarah Hunt is conducting routine freedom of navigation patrol in the South China Sea. On that same day, US Marine aviator Major Chris Wedge Mitchell is flying an F-35E Lightning, testing a new stealth technology as he flirts with Iranian airspace. By the end of that day, Wedge will be an Iranian prisoner, and Sarah Hunts destroyer will lie at the bottom of the ocean. A new, terrifying era is at hand.

So begins a disturbingly plausible novel, co-authored by an award-winning novelist and decorated Marine veteran and the former commander of NATO, a legendary admiral.

Everything in 2034 is an imagination extrapolation from present-day facts on the ground, informed by the authors years working at the highest and most classified levels of national security. Sometimes it takes a brilliant work of fiction to illuminate the most dire of warnings: this cautionary tale presents a dark yet possible future that we must do all we can to avoid.

I could not stop reading 2034 Phil Klay, author of Redeployment

A rippingly good read Wired

A mind-blowing murder mystery on a ship full of magical passengers. If Agatha Christie wrote fantasy, this would be it!

For a thousand years, Concordia has been able to maintain peace between its provinces, protected by a wall known as the Bandage. To mark this incredible feat, the emperor's ship embarks upon a twelve-day voyage to the Goddess's mountain.

Aboard are the heirs of the twelve provinces of Concordia, each graced with a unique and secret magical ability known as a Blessing.

Except one: Ganymedes Piscero - class clown, slacker, and all-round disappointment.

When a beloved heir is murdered, everyone is a suspect. Stuck at sea and surrounded by powerful people without a Blessing to protect him, odds of survival are slim.

But as the bodies pile higher, Ganymedes must become the hero he was not born to be. Can he unmask the killer and their Blessing before this bloody crusade reaches the shores of Concordia? Or will the empire as he knows it fall?
