The Magic of Sleep

A Bedside Companion

Sahaj Kaur Kohli

Growing up in the USA as a child of South-Asian immigrants, Sahaj straddled multiple cultures. While reading self-help and going to therapy helped her make sense of the world and her psyche, she soon realised that the advice of white, western writers didn&rsquo;t cater to her experience. Unlike the outside world, at home the idea of mental health was feared as a sign of weakness, often met with the question &lsquo;But what will people say?&rsquo; And for many like her who are navigating two cultures at once, the traditional advice to just &lsquo;set boundaries&rsquo; or &lsquo;put yourself first&rsquo; is not possible, or even safe. 
 
Since then, Sahaj has made it her mission to make therapeutic advice accessible and inclusive of the multicultural experience. Combining her personal story with research, insights from her personal and online communities, and practical advice, this book is a much-needed and revolutionary approach that enables multicultural people to show more compassion for themselves, for others and, above all, feel seen.

But What Will People Say?

Irritable bowel syndrome is a complex and frustrating condition that is not yet fully understood but affects an astounding ten per cent of the global population.

Sharing a wealth of accessible information and drawing on decades of experience, Dr Das will explore everything from what IBS is and how the digestive system works, to risk factors, the gut-brain axis, gut microbiome, IBS symptom red flags, and dietary, psychological and lifestyle treatments.

Rahul Jandial

As one of the world's leading brain surgeons, Dr Jandial is the last hope for many patients who have extreme forms of cancer - patients who can't be saved, but deserve more time.

Both an unflinching account of extreme surgeries and a profound, moving and introspective memoir, this book reveals the depths of a surgeon's psyche who is pushed to his limits, day in, day out. 
 
From keeping a gun victim's heart pumping with his own hand, to saving a woman from paralysis and performing brain surgery while time is running out on a haemorrhaging patient, we see how making life and death decisions and facing unimaginable pressure has shaped one man's life. 
 
In this breathtaking memoir, Dr Jandial shares what he's learned about human nature, from balancing the line between life and death everyday.

Stories from the Young People at the Heart of the Climate Crisis

Gerald Coakley

Beverly Knops

ME/CFS affects an estimated 250,000 people in the UK, roughly 3 in every 1,000 people. Chronic Fatigue conditions are some of the most frustrating and life-altering conditions to suffer from, so why are they still so poorly understood? 
 
As of 2020, medical science still cannot explain why some people get chronic fatigue syndromes and there is very little effective treatment. 
 
 This will be the much-needed, go-to, evidence-based guide for people struggling with ME/CFS, or their friends and family, providing information and advice about the nature of the condition, how it progresses, and what they can do to improve their health. Many treatments are therapeutic, so Living with ME and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome will be written by two leading experts - consultant rheumatologist, Dr Gerald Coakley, and occupational therapist, Beverly Knops.

Living with ME and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Lily Cole

Optimism demands action. Optimism is an active choice. Optimism is not naïve and it is not impossible. 
 
 We are living in an age of turmoil, destruction and uncertainty. Global warming has reached terrifying heights of severity, human expansion has caused the extinction of countless species, and Neoliberalism has led to a destructive divide in wealth and a polarisation of mainstream politics. But, there is a constructive way to meet this challenge, there is a reason to keep on fighting and there are plenty of reasons for optimism. 
 
 Lily Cole has met with some of the millions of people around the world who are working on solutions to our biggest challenges and committed to creating a more sustainable and peaceful future for humanity. Exploring issues from fast fashion to fast food and renewable energy to gender equality, and featuring interviews with Stella McCartney and Elon Musk, to activists Extinction Rebellion co-founder Dr Gail Bradbrook and Farhana Yamin, to offer a beacon of possibility in challenging times. 
 
This book is a rousing call to action that will leave you feeling hopeful that we can make a difference. We are the ancestors of our future: a generation who will either be celebrated for its activism or blamed for its apathy. It is for us to choose optimism, to make a change and to show what is possible.

Reasons For Optimism in Our Changing World

Joshua Patterson

When Josh set out to break the world record and run 76 marathons around the UK’s 76 cities in 76 days he knew it would be a test of determination and resilience, but he hadn't realised that his past struggles would provide the real strength he needed to cross the finish line. 
 
Having suffered with depression and come close to suicide in the past, Josh ran to raise money for the Samaritans and as he ran through the wind and rain, sometimes with crowds of supporters, sometimes alone, he often drew upon the memories of his darkest days to spur him on, knowing that there were happier times ahead. 
 
This is a collection of the 76 powerful lessons that fuelled Josh to reach the finish line – and will inspire you to reach yours, whatever that might look like – including: 
Memories are motivation 
There is no such thing as failure, only a lesson to be learned 
Don’t be too proud to ask for help 
Look at how far you’ve come 
Focus on progress over perfection 
Your thoughts don’t define you 
 
This isn't a book about running, it is about how to find light in the dark and rise from the ashes, and how to find the strength to achieve whatever you put your mind to.

Rangan Chatterjee

"One of the most influential doctors in the UK (...) I could talk to Rangan all day (...) he's amazing" - Chris Evans. 
 
In The Four Pillar Plan, Dr Rangan Chatterjee presents us with an incredibly simple framework for taking control of our health. He divides health into four pillars: diet, rest, sleep and movement. By making small, easily achievable changes in each of these key areas you can find and maintain good health - and avoid illness. You don't need to excel at any one pillar; what matters is the balance across all the things you do, from: 
 
· Having an electronic 'sabbath' once a week 
· Aiming for 12 hours every day without food 
· Exposing yourself to sunlight first thing each morning 
 
Based on cutting - edge research and his own experience as a GP, and featuring fascinating case studies from real patients, The Four Pillar Plan is an inspiring, easy-to-follow and practical guide to good health.

How to Relax, Eat, Move and Sleep Your Way to a Longer, Healthier Life

Tanya Byron

We live in a world fluent in therapy-speak — where every bad day is ‘depression’, every worry is ‘anxiety’, and every disappointment is ‘trauma’. But what if this language, meant to heal, is stopping us from feeling what’s real? 
 
In Your Are Not A Diagnosis, acclaimed clinical psychologist Professor Tanya Byron cuts through the noise with clarity and compassion. Drawing on decades in the therapy room, she shows how misusing the language of mental health hides our true emotions, robs those with genuine conditions of care, and leaves us trapped in labels instead of living authentically. 
 
This is not a book about dismissing distress — it’s about reclaiming it. With nuance and fierce honesty, Tanya argues that sadness, stress, grief and fear are not illnesses to diagnose away but experiences to sit with and move through, best held not by hashtags but by the people around us. Community, not a TikTok trend, is the real therapy room. 
 
For anyone who’s ever wondered if their messy, painful, overwhelming feelings mean they’re ‘broken’, this book offers a lifeline of perspective, agency and hope. And for parents navigating teens who self-diagnose via social media, it’s an urgent reminder to look beneath the therapy-speak and uncover what’s really being said. 
 
Essential, bracing, and deeply human, You Are Not A Diagnosis will change how you understand your feelings, your family, and the conversations we all so desperately need to get right.

Laura Huang

What sets the most successful people apart?

That instinctive ‘gut feeling’ often determines who seizes opportunities and who misses them.

Grounded in Huang’s pioneering research and enriched with insights from hundreds of illuminating interviews, this book offers a practical model for becoming better at recognising, understanding and enhancing your intuition to accomplish your most ambitious goals. What’s stopping you from unlocking your full potential? You already know.

James Kinross

Our microbiome &ndash; the complex ecosystem of bacteria, viruses and other microbes inside us &ndash; is critically important to our health and wellbeing. It is given to us by our mothers at birth, adapts with us as we age, influences our mood and appetites, determines how fast we run and even affects who we choose as a partner. 
 
In this ground-breaking book, expert on the microbiome James Kinross, takes us on a guided tour of our extraordinary inner universe, showing how our relationship with microbes may hold the key to why we are increasingly succumbing to diseases such as Alzheimer&rsquo;s, cancer and autoimmune conditions. He highlights the disastrous consequences of our war on germs, the effects of globalisation and our addiction to antibiotics, showing how it is only now, as we are beginning to discover the microbiome&rsquo;s enormous potential, that we are realising it is in grave danger. 
 
Drawing on cutting-edge research and years of clinical experience, Kinross shows us how to protect this vital inner world before it&rsquo;s too late &ndash; providing practical tips on how to optimise the microbiome to protect your health, boost your immunity and safeguard your mental wellbeing. His illuminating, urgent book shows that if we work with, not against our microbes, we can live better, healthier lives.

A Training Guide to Getting Fit and Feeling Strong for Life

Gary Bloom

Elite athletes play out their lives in the most public of arenas. Everything they do is analysed in real time and then picked apart in the pub and in the press afterwards. 'Why did they miss that penalty?', 'What made them fall at the first jump?', 'That press conference was a bit weird.' We can all speculate, but what's really going on? 
 
 In Keeping Your Head in the Game we peer into this highly confidential world. We follow the journeys of ten athletes in their therapy sessions with sports psychotherapist Gary Bloom, from a rugby player arrested for a drunken brawl, through a homesick cricketer on tour, to a snooker player struggling with his feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. 
 
Structured around the emotions we all experience on a daily basis - shame, anger, fear, jealousy and envy, love -chapter by chapter, the inner traumas that have an impact on the performance of these sports personalities are revealed, explained and resolved. Seeing how they overcome their demons is a powerful way of tackling your own and, as Gary says, happier players play better - in sport and in life.
