The D.O.D.O. Diet, or Day On, Day Off Diet will help you lose weight quickly and easily whilst dropping fat, building muscle, restoring energy levels and dramatically improving fitness and health (it can help reduce your risk of cancer and diabetes as well as slow the ageing process). Unlike other 5:2 diets, you aren’t tied to two set diet days a week. Depending on your individual goals you can diet 1, 2 or 3 days a week to get the results you want – and eat whatever you like the rest of the week. 
 
The diet is carefully designed by Drew Price, a highly experienced Registered Nutritionist who specialises in working with elite athletes to help them reach peak condition and improve their performance, including medal-winning Olympians, Premier League footballers, Rugby League and Rugby Union players. 
 
On ‘Days On’ you drink plenty of fluids and eat one light meal a day (about a quarter of your normal calorie intake)and there are clear guidelines, meal plans and simple recipes to help you do this. On ‘Days Off’ you can eat exactly what you want, although you are encouraged to follow his everyday eating guidelines to make the best food choices and to get the full health benefits of the diet. 
 
A revolutionary approach to weight loss, health and fitness, The D.O.D.O. Diet ends the tyranny of everyday dieting and calorie counting and gets you the results you want, whether you just want to lose weight, are training for a specific sports event or want to protect your long-term health.

For too long our lives have been dominated by the 'under one roof' Industrial Revolution model of work. That era is now over. As remote working is becoming increasingly more flexible, there is no longer a reason for the daily roll call, of the need to be seen with your butt on your seat in the office. The technology and necessity to work remotely and to avoid the daily grind of commuting and meetings has finally come of age. Bestselling authors Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson are the masters of making it work at tech company 37signals. 
 
 Remote: Office Not Required combines eye-opening ideas with entertaining narrative. With its almost prescient content, the book will convince you that working remotely increases productivity and innovation, and it will also teach you how to get it right - whether you are a manager, working solo or one of a team. Chapters include: 'Talent isn't bound by the hubs', 'It's the technology, stupid', 'When to type, when to talk', 'Stop managing the chairs' and 'The virtual water cooler'. 
 
 Brilliantly simple and refreshingly illuminating this is a call to action to end the tyranny of being shackled to the office.

Gina Ford

Pressurised by the media, scrutinised by their peers, frowned upon even by those closest to them, mothers today face relentless criticism and pressure. Breast or bottle? Work or stay at home? Routine or feeding-on-demand? The choices are infinite and at the heart of each question is the more controversial and divisive debate of what makes a good mother. Good Mother, Bad Mother is an illuminating, moving and thought-provoking study of this enigmatic question. Never before has the subject of motherhood been tackled with such unflinching honesty. 
 
Drawing on her experience of thousands of mothers, bestselling parenting author Gina Ford has turned her attention to the women charged with bringing up the next generation. She addresses the challenges of contemporary motherhood and fervently argues that these awe-inspiring women seldom receive the support, respect and admiration they deserve. And for the first time, in a candid, personal account, Gina interweaves stories from her own childhood, revealing how her relationship with her own mother has shaped the choices she has made. 
 
Any woman who has ever doubted her capabilities as a mother will find comfort and reassurance in the insights of the woman whose books have been justly described a 'godsend'.

- Bigger muscles? Easy. 
- Less fat? Check. 
- More intelligence? No problem. 
- Eating pizza, burgers, drinking beer and being strong, fit and lean? Of course. 
- A wild sex life? Yes, there’s drugs-free fix for that too… 
 
The solution is in this book. Written by health pioneers and advisors to key influencers, including Tim Ferriss and Gary Vaynerchuk, Man 2.0 presents a unique 4-week diet and fitness plan to make you look and feel like the man you want to be. 
 
Clear and simple, the authors’ game-changing plan is the culmination of 10 years of work and research into the science of natural hormone optimisation.
