Have you ever questioned why, despite the avalanche of self-help books and optimization hacks, we remain embroiled in multiple global health crises? Populations worldwide are gaining life-shortening excess weight (even in poorer countries), and water contamination is rampant (even in richer countries). In such dire circumstances, a gratitude journal won’t help. 
 
The stark reality is that we’ve been sold a monumental lie. The obsession with individual health optimization has distracted us from the real game-changer: holding governments accountable for policies that can significantly extend our lifespans. How Not to Die (Too Soon) is a vital, transformative guide that shifts the focus from individual responsibility to societal accountability. It’s time to demand the changes that will save lives.

How Not to Die (Too Soon)

The Lies We’ve Been Sold and the Policies That Can Save Us

Rangan Chatterjee

The Instant No.1 Bestseller 
 
'Even your first taste of this book’s practical, inviting and effective strategies for happiness will make you glad you did.' - from the foreword by Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks 
 
Happiness is a practice, not a destination. We often treat happiness as something to pursue, a reward we’ll reach once life is finally in order. But what if happiness is not an outcome, but a practice - the foundation that shapes how we meet each moment? 
 
Drawing on over twenty years as a doctor, Dr Rangan Chatterjee has seen that motivation and willpower rarely sustain us for long. True wellbeing only becomes possible when we learn to nurture what he calls core happiness - a steadier, more resilient form of joy that doesn’t depend on circumstances. 
 
In Happy Mind, Happy Life, Dr Chatterjee blends science, case studies, and simple exercises to show how small, daily choices ripple into lasting change. Through ten simple but profound ways, you’ll explore how to: 
<ul><li>Treat yourself with compassion and respect</li><li>Redesign your relationship with technology</li><li>Respond to criticism without being derailed</li></ul> 
This is not a manual for quick fixes, but an invitation to reimagine how you live - so that health, clarity, and contentment flow naturally into your days.

Transform Your Body and Mind with CrossFit’s Five-Time Fittest Man on Earth

We have never had so much information at our fingertips and yet most of us don't know how the world really works. This book explains seven of the most fundamental realities governing our survival and prosperity. From energy and food production, through our material world and its globalization, to risks, our environment and its future, How the World Really Works offers a much-needed reality check - because before we can tackle problems effectively, we must understand the facts. 
 
 In this ambitious and thought-provoking book we see, for example, that globalization isn't inevitable and that our societies have been steadily increasing their dependence on fossil fuels, making their complete and rapid elimination unlikely. Drawing on the latest science and tackling sources of misinformation head on - from Yuval Noah Harari to Noam Chomsky - ultimately Smil answers the most profound question of our age: are we irrevocably doomed or is a brighter utopia ahead?

A Scientist’s Guide to Our Past, Present and Future

Herman Pontzer

'Pontzer's findings have huge implications for our attitudes to exercise, diet and public health' Mark Webster, Sunday Times 
 
 A myth-busting tour of the body's hidden foundations from a pioneering evolutionary biologist 
 
 'Public health strategies stubbornly cling to the simplistic armchair engineer's view of metabolism, hurting efforts to combat obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and the other diseases that are most likely to kill us' 
 
 Herman Pontzer's ground-breaking research has revealed how, contrary to received wisdom, exercise does not increase our metabolism. Instead, we burn calories within a very narrow range: nearly 3,000 calories per day, no matter our activity level. 
 
 In this book, he draws on twenty years of cutting-edge science to take a closer look at what happens to the energy we consume. Burn explores the ways in which metabolism controls every aspect of our health - from fertility to immune function - and reveals the truth about the dynamic system that sustains us. 
 
Filled with facts and memorable anecdotes, this book will change the way you think about food, exercise and what really matters for your health.

Daniel Lieberman

In industrialized nations, our sedentary lifestyles have contributed to skyrocketing rates of obesity and diseases like diabetes. A key remedy, we are told, is exercise - voluntary physical activity for the sake of health. However, most of us struggle to stay fit, and our attitudes to exercise are plagued by misconceptions, finger-pointing and anxiety. 
 
But, as Daniel Lieberman shows in Exercised, the first book of its kind by a leading scientific expert, we never evolved to exercise. We are hardwired for moderate exertion throughout each day, not triathlons or treadmills. Drawing on over a decade of high-level scientific research and eye-opening insights from evolutionary biology and anthropology, Lieberman explains precisely how exercise can promote health; debunks persistent myths about sitting, speed, strength and endurance; and points the way towards more enjoyable and physically active living in the modern world.

The Science of Physical Activity, Rest and Health

Is flying dangerous? How much do the world's cows weigh? And what makes people happy? 
 
From earth's nations and inhabitants, through the fuels and foods that energize them, to the transportation and inventions of our modern world - and how all of this affects the planet itself - in Numbers Don't Lie, Professor Vaclav Smil takes us on a fact-finding adventure, using surprising statistics and illuminating graphs to challenge lazy thinking. 
 
Packed with 'Well-I-never-knew-that' information and with fascinating and unusual examples throughout, we find out how many people it took to build the Great Pyramid, that vaccination yields the best return on investment, and why electric cars aren't as great as we think (yet). There's a wonderful mix of science, history and wit, all in bite-sized chapters on a broad range of topics. 
 
Urgent and essential, Numbers Don't Lie inspires readers to interrogate what they take to be true in these significant times. Smil is on a mission to make facts matter, because after all, numbers may not lie, but which truth do they convey?

Most books about the environmental crisis are densely academic, depressingly doom-laden and crammed with impersonal statistics. We are the Weather is different - accessible, immediate and with a single clear solution that individual readers can put into practice straight away. 
 
A significant proportion of global carbon emissions come from farming meat. Giving up meat is incredibly hard and nobody is perfect - but just cutting back is much easier and still has a huge positive effect on the environment. Cutting out meat for just part of the day is enough to change the world. 
 
With his distinctive wit, insight and humanity, Foer frames this essential debate as no one else could, bringing it to vivid and urgent life.

Not only will FMD rejuvenate the body and help weight loss, the focus of Longo's diet is to reduce the risk of illnesses such as diabetes, cancer and heart disease, and ultimately improve our health and extend our lifespan.

Donal O'Neill

A diet that allows red wine, chocolate and the most delicious Italian food you can imagine? The Pioppi Plan offers just that, but so much more - lose weight, de-stress and live healthier and longer with this revolutionary new programme. Pioppi itself, a small Italian village which is home to the healthiest, longest-living people in the world, offers secrets that have never before been shared: until now. 
 
Based on five years of research and drawing on over 100 studies on Pioppi, Dr Aseem Malhotra, a trained cardiologist, has created a plan which is designed to provide readers with the joy and wellbeing of a Mediterranean lifestyle by making small 'marginal gains' over a 21-day period. Each little change the book encourages you to make will add up to weight lost and years gained, across eight key areas: diet, movement, sleep, stress management, sunshine, exercise, posture and social interaction. This isn't a diet or lifestyle which requires saying 'no' to the things you love, nor exercising for hours upon end, but rather making simple, achievable and long-lasting changes.

Coconut is the new grapefruit. Based on more than two decades of research by world-renowned biochemist Dr Mary Enig, The Good Fat Diet flouts conventional wisdom by asserting that so-called 'healthy' vegetable oils are a major cause of obesity, while the saturated fats traditionally considered harmful (such as those found in coconut oil and butter) are, in fact, essential to weight loss and health. Picking up where Atkins left off, this good news diet uses coconut to kickstart a healthy diet, one that will raise metabolism, eliminate cravings and boost energy.
