Better Sleep. Less Stress. More Energy. Mood Boost.

Cassie Holmes

How to Spend Your Time for a Better, More Meaningful Life

Richard Restak

How to Prevent Dementia begins with the principle that the more we know about dementia, the easier it is to prevent or delay it. A better foundation of knowledge also helps people to understand and interact thoughtfully with loved ones living with the condition. 
 
The book shows that dementias exist on a spectrum, starting with perfectly normal performance and ending at the extremes of mental dysfunction. Dr Restak also provides practical advice on how to reduce your risk of developing the condition, and sheds light on both the positive and more challenging consequences of pioneering new dementia medications that will soon be available. 
 
At the end of the book, the reader will understand what practical steps can be taken each day to lessen the odds of dementia, and how to take advantage of new medications, all while gaining a better understanding of thinking, and what it is like to have it falter.

Ellie Middleton

In 2021 Ellie was diagnosed with autism and ADHD and although it felt like the light had finally been switched on and she wasn't just 'broken', the room before her was messy from a lifetime of being misunderstood. She quickly found that she wasn't the only one, in fact 80% of autistic females remain undiagnosed at age 18 and only 8% of adults affected by ADHD have a formal diagnosis. Even with a diagnosis, most are left asking, what now? 
 
Ellie's mission is to change that. To challenge the common misconceptions about neurodivergent conditions that are preventing marginalised people get the diagnosis they need, and to provide simple, actionable resources so that they can live without the fear and shame that she did. 
 
UNMASKED is Ellie's kind and supportive guide that sheds light on everything from masking to the diagnostic process and from sensory overload to navigating the workplace, so that every reader can better understand themselves and others, and ultimately, make society more inclusive.

A GUIDE TO USING THE SCIENCE OF THE BODY CLOCK TO CREATE THE OPTIMUM PERSONAL ROUTINE: SLEEP BETTER, WORK BETTER, FEEL BETTER. 
 
'A superlative guide to some of the most intriguing questions of human existence' - Bill Bryson, author of The Body: A Guide for Occupants 
 
'Who knew our body clocks determined so much of our health, happiness, and lifespan? I learned so much' - James Nestor, author of Breath 
 
In the twenty-first century, we increasingly push our daily routines into the night, carrying out work, exercise and our social lives long after dark. But we have forgotten that our bodies are governed by a 24-hour biological clock which guides us towards the best time to sleep, eat and think. 
 
In Life Time, Professor Russell Foster shares his life's work, taking us on a fascinating and surprising journey through the science of our body clocks. Using his own studies, as well as insights from an international community of sleep scientists and biologists studying circadian rhythms, he illustrates the surprising effects the time of day can have on our health, including: 
 
- how a walk outside at dawn can ensure a better night's sleep 
- how eating after sundown can affect our weight 
- the extraordinary effects the time we take our medication can have on our risk of life-threatening conditions, such as strokes 
 
In the modern world, we have neglected an essential part of our biology. But with knowledge of this astonishing science, we can get back into the rhythm, and live healthier, sharper lives.

The much-needed tonic for our frazzled world

Megan Rossi

When we eat, we're not only feeding ourselves, we are also feeding millions of microbes that live in our gut. When they are healthy, they keep the rest of our body healthy, but most of us are not feeding them enough plant-based wholefoods to keep them working at their best. 
 
From the go-to gut-health expert and Sunday Times bestselling author, Dr Megan Rossi, this book shows us the incredible health benefits of a plant-based diet, and shares over 80 simple, crowd-pleasing recipes that everyone will enjoy. 
 
We need to eat 30+ plant-based foods a week to keep our gut happy so it's all about adding more foods into our diets, rather than cutting them out. Megan makes this easy with her mouth-watering dishes, including: Loaded nachos, Thai fishcakes, Raspberry and white chocolate muffins, a Hearty lasagne and even Raspberry and lemon ricotta baked cheesecake. With meal plans to suit any lifestyle and plenty of nifty tips and tricks, it has never been easier to eat more plants.

Matt Gibberd

In 2005, childhood friends Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill set out to convince people of the power of good design and its ability to influence our wellbeing. They founded The Modern House - in equal parts an estate agency, a publisher and a lifestyle brand - and went on to inspire a generation to live more thoughtfully and beautifully at home. 
 
As The Modern House grew, Matt and Albert came to realise that the most successful homes they encountered - from cleverly conceived studio flats to listed architectural masterpieces - had been designed with attention to the same timeless principles: Space, Light, Materials, Nature and Decoration. 
 
In this lavishly illustrated book, Matt tells the stories of these remarkable living spaces and their equally remarkable owners, and demonstrates how the five principles can be applied to your own space in ways both large and small. Revolutionary in its simplicity, and full of elegance, humour and joy, this book will inspire you to find happiness in the place you call home.
