The short life of A.J.A. Symons (1900-41) was described by his biographer as an intricate and largely harmless confidence trick. His many interests included the collection of musical boxes and rare books as well as the study and practice of forgery; they left him time to edit an anthology of Edwardian verse and compose studies of H.M. Stanley and other notable figures. He is remembered for The Quest for Corvo, one of the most remarkable biographies ever written, and for co-founding the Wine and Food Society.

Shefali Tsabary

A powerful wake-up call, a hands-on guide and a pathway forward to reclaim how daughters are seen, supported and raised in the 21st century, by clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr Shefali Tsabary. 
Something unprecedented is unfolding in the inner lives of our girls today. On the surface, they are excelling and achieving in ways that would seem unimaginable to previous generations. Yet beneath this success lies a far more urgent and unsettling truth: Girls are unravelling at alarming rates. Anxiety, perfectionism, and self-harm are surging, exposing a devastating paradox between the confident, high-achieving facade the world applauds and the fragile, unmoored self that struggles silently within. In a digital age that commodifies attention, comparison, and worth, this inner fracture is no longer slow or subtle. 
Into this urgent moment comes Raising Conscious Daughters, the groundbreaking new book from clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Shefali, founder of the revolutionary Conscious Parenting movement. Drawing on real-life clinical cases, interviews with children and parents, and deeply practical, prescriptive guidance, Dr. Shefali offers a radical reorientation of how we understand girls today. 
In this book she shows parents how to raise daughters who: 
<ul><li>Trust their inner voice</li><li>Set boundaries with confidence and clarity</li><li>Stay emotionally connected to their authentic self</li></ul> 
At a time when girls appear more capable than ever yet feel more fragile within, Raising Conscious Daughters stands as a one-of-a-kind guide for helping them grow into empowered, worthy and resilient beings.

An Operating Manual for the Human Body

Xand van Tulleken

There has never been a more confusing time to try to be healthy. In the past decade, the healthcare sector has witnessed a remarkable surge in innovation: drug design, genomics and diagnostic technology have all changed almost beyond recognition. 
 
Simultaneously, there has been a significant expansion in consumer health services, including the supplement industry, blood testing, consumer genomics and wearable technology, which claim to improve “wellness” (emphasising physical and mental performance and longevity) rather than curing or preventing specific disease states. 
 
For a typical consumer this is both confusing, as the health and wellness industries are almost indistinguishable, and expensive, as consumer health emphasises personalised products, often sold on a subscription basis. 
 
In Make Me Well, Xand van Tulleken investigates the new Wild West of the wellness industry, demystifying a landscape dominated by three products: supplements, blood testing, and wearable technology. In doing so, he shines a light on how people can take care of themselves better in this new and overwhelming world of wellness.

The word-of-mouth phenomenon that transformed how we lead and live 
 
Most leaders don’t realise they’re operating on autopilot – reacting defensively, managing through fear, and fueling workplace drama. The Fifteen Commitments of Conscious Leadership offers a groundbreaking framework, adopted by top companies from Silicon Valley to Wall Street, for reshaping how people work together. It is radically simple: at any moment, we can choose to lead consciously – open, curious, and self-aware – or unconsciously – closed, fearful, and reactive. 
 
 
Originally self-published and shared among executives and coaches, The Fifteen Commitments of Conscious Leadership quickly became a favourite in boardrooms and beyond. Drawing upon decades of experience, the authors distil conscious leadership into fifteen actionable commitments – from taking radical responsibility to feeling all feelings – that replace command-and-control style management with curiosity, accountability, and connection. The result? Conscious leaders who unlock the full potential in every member of their team and free them from institutional politics so they can do the best work of their lives. 
 
 
Blending practical tools with real-world stories, this enduring classic is more than a guide for better management – it’s a roadmap to a more authentic, fulfilling life.
