Summary:

Random House presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Popular, written and read by Mitch Prinstein.

Who doesn't want to be more popular? Surely a person's popularity - be it at school, work or socially - is the best predictor of how happy and successful they can be?

The truth is actually much more complex. This impeccably researched and highly entertaining book presents two very distinct types of popularity and shows how only one of them will get us where we want.

Based on 20 years of research and written by popularity expert Mitch Prinstein, Popular investigates the science of what popularity is, why we care about it so much even if we dont think we do what kind of popularity is worth caring about, and if we can still get the popularity we want, even if we didn't have it when we were younger. Prinstein also offers important insights on parenting for popularity, explaining why supporting children in the right way will help them cultivate the right kind of popularity and help shape them positively as adults in the future.

Language: English

Release date: 06-01-17

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Summary:

Todays business leaders operate in an increasingly harsh environment. Uncertainty in the economy causes paralysis. Quarterly goals drive short-term and shortsighted decisions.

Now more than ever, brands and the people who lead them need clarity and guidance. The good news is that people have found ways to thrive in harsh environments for millennia. Author Jonathan David Lewis, combining the lessons of group survival dynamics with more than a decade of proprietary research into the factors that cause companies to lose their way, shows leaders how to thrive in unforgiving business environments by learning to:

Focus on navigating risk instead of trying to measure or reduce it.

Cultivate your brands will to live by staying positive and asking the most important question: Are you worth it?

Read the brand signs by observing the market, keeping an eye on performance measures, engaging your team, and listening to your gut.

Develop a concept of 'mission' to ensure internal alignment and reduce friction.

Act with urgency rather than waiting for the right circumstance.

Brand vs. Wild helps listeners understand the wilderness in which they find their companies and identify the specific steps they must take to thrive in the Brand Wilderness. There is hope in a harsh business world. And Brand vs. Wild is it.

Language: English

Release date: 06-01-17

Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio UK

Genres: Mystery, Thriller & Horror, Political Thriller, Historical

Summary:

From the bestselling author of Leaving Berlin comes an explosive and richly imagined thriller set in the early days of the Cold War. 

SOME SECRETS SHOULD NEVER BE TOLD

Moscow, 1961: With the launch of Sputnik, the Soviet Union's international prestige is at an all-time high. And the most notorious of the defectors to the Soviet Union, former CIA agent Frank Weeks, is about to publish his memoir. What he reveals will send shock waves through the West. Weeks' defection in the early 1950s shook Washington to its core – and forced the resignation of his brother, Simon, from the State Department.

Simon, now a publisher in New York, is given the opportunity to read and publish his brother’s memoir. He knows the US government will never approve the publication of what is clearly intended as KGB propaganda. Yet the offer is irresistible: it will finally give him the chance to learn why his brother chose to betray his country.

But what he discovers in Moscow is far more shocking than he ever imagined . . . 

PRAISE FOR JOSEPH KANON: 

'Joseph Kanon continues to demonstrate that he is up there with the very best of the current crop of spy thriller writers . . . he is the master of the shadows of the era . . . a frightening, convincing portrait of the state's capacity to control every aspect of the lives of its subjects and even its visitors. Kanon writes beautifully, superbly conveying human sadness and regret' The Times on Defectors

'The critical stock of Joseph Kanon will add further lustre to his reputation . . . There are pleasing echoes here of the "entertainments" of Graham Greene' Guardian on Defectors

'Defectors [is] as readable and suspenseful as the fine espionage novels of Eric Ambler, Graham Greene, Charles McCarry, Robert Littell, Alan Furst and John Le Carré — and its roller-coaster plot will keep you guessing until the final page' Washington Post

'An excellent tale about secrets, loyalty and betrayal' Sun

'One of the most exciting books I've read in years' Alexander McCall Smith on Leaving Berlin
