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.

The Child-Healthy Divorce

How to Protect Your Child’s Mental and Emotional Health through a Breakup or Separation

Kirsty King

How can you tell if someone is lying to you? Is it possible to separate the truth from lies in what people say? And when should you trust what you hear? 
 
Everyone lies. We lie to our family, friends, colleagues and strangers. But some lies are extremely damaging. They can destroy relationships, ruin lives and create distrust and discord. These lies need to be detected. And they can be, if we know how to listen out for them. 
 
Forensic linguist Dr Kirsty King knows that, as convincing as some liars might be, their lies can be exposed by paying close attention to the language they use. It is possible for us to detect whether someone is being deceptive by listening out for key linguistic indicators in the way that they speak and the things that they say. 
 
Drawing on research from forensic linguistics and psychology, this book presents real-life case studies and stories to show you how language can reveal the liars amongst us: from partners or colleagues misleading us to killers trying to get away with murder. The Language of Lies is an accessible toolkit that will help you decide whether to believe what you hear or not.

How to Feel Loved

The Five Mindsets That Get You More of What Matters Most

Paul Eastwick

A ground-breaking look at the science of love and connection – and an urgent corrective to some of our most fundamental assumptions about attraction. 
 
'In a world saturated with cynical advice about dating and gender, this book is a revelation . . . Bonded by Evolution is rigorous science written with warmth and moral clarity.' DANIEL H. PINK, author of Drive and The Power of Regret 
 
--------------------- 
 
We’re told that what men and women desire from relationship is different and at odds – he’s looking for novelty, she’s looking for commitment; he’s concerned with looks, she’s concerned with status. We’re told that we live in a hierarchy of romantic inequality, in which desirability is predetermined by a narrow set of characteristics and where some people are marriage material while others are wired for promiscuity. Such ideas have their roots in a branch of science called evolutionary psychology, and over the past few decades its ideas have permeated our culture and fuelled a narrative that inspires despair and anxiety – and, in its most extreme form, these ideas have been hijacked in the service of misogyny and violence. 
 
But this narrative is unscientific. The truth about human attraction – and the way evolution plays out in our romantic lives – is much more interesting and optimistic. 
 
Bonded by Evolution offers a radical new picture of the roots of enduring chemistry. Distilling evolutionary biology, anthropology and psychology and informed by his pathbreaking research and original experiments at the Attraction and Relationships Research Laboratory in California, psychology professor Paul Eastwick reveals how attraction is best depicted as a process of finding – and, often, creating – a compatible relationship. Once we understand how ancestral humans sought compatible partners in small networks, we can build a clearer – and brighter – picture of how attraction, sex and relationships really work. 
 
--------------------- 
 
'Profound and pragmatic, suggesting an entirely different approach to the study – and pursuit – of love.' ERIC KLINENBERG, co-author of Modern Romance 
 
'Rarely have scientific rigor and exuberant optimism been such congenial companions . . . Bonded by Evolution presents an optimistic new paradigm, one that provides clear guidance for romantic success.' ELI FINKEL, author of The All or Nothing Marriage

Bonded by Evolution

What We’ve Got Wrong About Love and Connection

Daniel Coyle

How do we set about finding greater fulfilment in our lives? How do we achieve a sense of well-being? How do we foster relationships that will add depth and meaning to our existence? How, in other words, do we go from living to flourishing? 
 
 
In his new book, bestselling author Daniel Coyle trains his expert eye on the people who have demonstrated exceptional powers of dynamism and connectivity, and teases out their secrets. The Chilean miners who withstood being trapped deep underground for 33 days by establishing rituals of belonging and purpose. The Dutch community that sparked urban renewal through a smart system of self-organisation. The delicatessen in Michigan that has grown into a multi-million dollar enterprise, not by writing business plans but by shaping attentional space – focussing on how people show up, listen and engage. From such remarkable stories of individual and group achievement, Coyle distils the core dynamics that make them possible – and, in the process, shows how small, deliberate shifts in how we think and interact can create extraordinary impact. 
 
Whether you are seeking a deeper sense of personal contentment or aspiring to transform a team or community, Flourish is the indispensable guide to shaping the future you want.

Flourish

The Art of Building Meaning, Joy and Fulfilment

A powerful look at the importance of a mother’s presence in the first years of life. 
 
In this important and conversation-starting book, veteran psychoanalyst Erica Komisar offers a provocative and compelling premise: a mother's emotional and physical presence in her child's life -- especially during the first three years -- means that her child has a greater chance of growing up emotionally healthy, happy, secure, and resilient. When that essential presence goes missing, the child is at higher risk for social, emotional, and developmental issues, both immediate and long term. 
 
In other words, when it comes to connecting with your baby or toddler, more is more. 
 
Compassionate and balanced, and focusing on the emotional health and well-being of children as well as that of the mothers who care for them, this book shows mothers and fathers how to give their children the best chance for developing into healthy and loving adults. Based on more than two decades of clinical work, established psychoanalytic theory, and the most current and cutting-edge neurobiological research on caregiving, attachment, and brain development, Being There explains: 
 
- How to establish emotional connection with a newborn or young child -- regardless of whether you're able to pause your career to stay home, 
- How to select and train quality childcare if necessary -- and how to ease transitions and minimize stress for your baby or toddler, 
- What's true and false about widely held beliefs like 'Babies are resilient' and how to combat feelings of post-partum depression or boredom, 
- How women and their partners can take control of their choices around work to provide for their family's emotional needs in the first three years.

'Every day we are overwhelmed by advice on how to live better. Art Cure is an amazing antidote to the deluge of nonsense . . . Everyone should read this.' XAND VAN TULLEKEN, doctor and presenter 
 
'Elegantly distils the evidence for what we have always intuitively felt; that music, literature, cinema, and art are powerful universal remedies . . . A book for our times.' GILLIAN ANDERSON, bestselling author, actress and activist 
 
DIET. SLEEP. EXERCISE. NATURE. ARTS? 
 
Many of us consider making and consuming art to be a hobby, or even a luxury. But what if arts engagement – from classical music to salsa, poetry to pop concerts, galleries to graffiti – was in fact one of our most powerful tools for unlocking health and happiness? 
 
What if art could help you live longer – and even save your life? 
 
In Art Cure, world-leading expert and award-winning scientist Professor Daisy Fancourt reveals the life-changing power of the arts, including how: 
<ul><li>Songs support the architectural development of children’s brains.</li><li>Creative hobbies help our brains to stay resilient against dementia.</li><li>Visual art and music act just like drugs to reduce depression, stress, and pain.</li><li>Dance build new neural pathways for people with brain injuries.</li><li>Going to live music events, museums, exhibitions, and the theatre decreases our risk of future loneliness and frailty.</li><li>Engaging in the arts improves the functioning of every major organ system in the body.</li></ul>And, perhaps most importantly, how art helps us not only to survive, but to thrive and flourish. 
 
Fancourt draws on ground-breaking research in neuroscience, psychology, immunology, physiology, behavioural science and epidemiology, as well as inspiring true stories of people who have experienced radical changes in their health, to empower readers to improve their own health through the arts. 
 
Informed by the results of decades of scientific studies, Art Cure is the must-read, inspiring guide to improving your health, giving you the tools to write your own 'arts prescription'. 
 
 
'A revelation . . . Could not be more timely, nor make a stronger, more urgent case for placing the arts at the centre of our communities.' MELYN BRAGG, broadcaster and parliamentarian

We assume that the highest-performing people are wired differently; that their success is down to nothing more than raw talent. 
 
But in the course of 400 conversations with the world's most remarkable individuals, Jake Humphrey and Damian Hughes have found the opposite: real success comes from small, often imperceptible changes in behaviour. They call them micro-habits. 
 
Drawing on exclusive interviews with leading high performers – from Olympic-medallists to billionaire entrepreneurs – Micro-Habits introduces the forty-eight simple tools that anyone can use to achieve excellence. 
 
The best thing? They work right away.

Tiny Changes That Supercharge High Performance

Jessica Baum

'A masterful integration of neuroscience, attachment theory, and real-world healing. Jessica Baum bridges clinical insight with deep compassion, offering readers a roadmap for transforming the way they relate to themselves and others.' 
Julie Menanno, author of Secure Love---- 
 
An inspiring guide to fostering more security, intimacy and peace in our relationships, and in ourselves, from therapist and author of Anxiously Attached, Jessica Baum. 
 
The topic of attachment theory has never been hotter, but going beyond simple types to uncover how you developed your unique attachment patterns and why you relate to others as you do is where the deepest insights can be revealed. 
 
In this compassionate and practical guide, therapist Jessica Baum sheds light on the unprocessed attachment wounds that cause us to live in survival mode — and offers a roadmap for building safe relationships that can become the foundation for true healing. You’ll discover what fulfilling, joyful, secure love feels like and how to cultivate it using simple techniques that will help you move from 'fight or flight' mode to a place of trust and true closeness with the people you care about most. 
 
Drawing on the brain science behind why we tend to repeat old, painful patterns, Safe shows you how to move toward relationships that provide the deeper connection and trust we all long for, in every area of our lives.

Safe

An Attachment-Informed Guide to Building More Secure Relationships

Noemi Orvos-Toth

'Riveting . . . This enthralling book will make you think more deeply about your own relationships, and the things that have been left unsaid.' MAIL ON SUNDAY 
 
'Immediately appealing . . . a welcome deepening of how we understand the human predicament and a pertinent antidote to the sometimes aggressive individualism of our time.' THE IRISH TIMES 
 
------ 
 
The international bestseller. 
 
Our families shape who we are. From the circumstances of our conception and the family structure we are born into, to the expectations placed upon us and the love we receive, we are formed by our social and familial network. So if we want to truly know ourselves – to find out why we falter, to explain our anxieties, our repeated relationship patterns – we must look beyond our own lives and discover the secrets, unprocessed losses, and limiting beliefs of our parents, grandparents, and even to ancestors we have never met. 
 
In Inherited Fate, psychologist Noémi Orvos-Tóth invites the reader on a journey of self-awareness that spans generations. Illustrated with vivid stories and questions that invite the reader to engage personally, Inherited Fate is a fascinating framework for discovery of the self, the dismantling of inherited beliefs and the revelation of wisdom stored in the body. 
 
We cannot undo what has happened, but if we understand it, the past can help give a different shape to the present and to our future. 
 
 
Inherited Fate explores: 
<ul><li>the impact of the events surrounding conception and birth – such as the stress our mothers experienced during pregnancy, the expectations of our parents about our sex or our role in the family, or where we fall in the birth order;</li><li>the far-reaching spillover effects of repressing trauma – both individual and collective;</li><li>the deep marks left by the attachment pattern formed in childhood, and how it returns in the relationships of adulthood;</li><li>how family secrets divide us, distort reality and destroy trust, even when they remain buried.</li></ul> 
---- 
 
 
‘Illuminating . . . A compassionate understanding of how we can recognise and reconcile the legacies we carry.’ Galit Atlas, psychoanalyst and author of Emotional Inheritance 
 
‘A deep and comprehensive look at the ways that those ordinary people we call “parents” unwittingly share their pain with their children; and how important it is for all of us “children” to be aware of such historical pain, and explore ways to transform it.’ Gwen Adshead, forensic psychiatrist and psychotherapist and author of The Devil You Know 
 
'A sage companion for anyone who has wanted, or needed, to confront the past and engage with the present. Inherited Fate is full of possibility and curiosity, and disrupts the avoidant gaze . . . Offers rigour to the ongoing conversation of embodied trauma.' Maxine Mei-Fung Chung, psychotherapist and author of What Women Want

Family trauma and the ways of healing

Daniel Yon

How does your brain decide what it’s seeing, from the physical world to other people? For decades, scientists have tried to understand how our brains work, not realising that the answer lies much closer to home than it seems. 
 
The latest research in neuroscience and psychology suggests that the brain is doing the same thing that the scientists are: using past experiences to build theories of how the world works, and using these models to predict and make sense of it. Through this process, your brain constructs the reality that you live in. 
 
In this book Daniel Yon takes the research one step further, uncovering how your brain colours your perception of the world, the judgements you make about other people and the beliefs you form about yourself. With transformative applications for how we engage with other communities and approach mental illness, A Trick of The Mind will revolutionise the way you think.

A Trick Of The Mind

How the Brain Invents Your Reality

What is great culture made of? How do you get more of it, or turn around a group that needs improving? In The Culture Playbook, Daniel Coyle delivers a field-tested guide for building strong, cohesive, high-performing groups. 
 
Coyle, author of the New York Times bestselling The Culture Code, has spent the last six years studying and consulting with some of the most successful groups on the planet - including Pixar, Navy SEALS Team 6 and others. Here, he distils his findings into 60 concise, actionable, scientifically proven tips for building safety, generating trust, and establishing purpose - plus a set of conversation-igniting exercises to help you assess and improve your current culture. 
 
The result is a book that will sharpen the skills of any leader and strengthen the cohesion of any team - because it demonstrates that great culture is not controlled by fate or luck; it's controlled by you. 
 
Praise for The Culture Code 
 
'A truly brilliant, mesmerising read that demystifies the magic of great groups. It blows all other books on culture right out of the water. Read it immediately.' Adam Grant, author of Originals 
 
'An essential book that unlocks the secrets of highly successful groups and provides readers with a toolkit for building a cohesive, innovative culture.' Business Insider

The Culture Playbook

60 Highly Effective Actions to Help Your Group Succeed

Benjamin Todd

You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years. If you want a rewarding and interesting life that changes the world, your choice of career is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. 
 
 However, there’s surprisingly little good advice out there. Most career advice focuses on CVs and offers misleading platitudes like ‘follow your passion’. And it insists that if you want to do good you should become a teacher, doctor or a charity worker - even though the evidence suggests that the highest-impact people did nothing of the sort. 
 
 A self-published word-of-mouth bestseller, this new edition of 80,000 Hours draws on a decade of research conducted at the University of Oxford to offer you the tools you need to find a career you enjoy, you’re good at, and that tackles the world’s most pressing problems.

80,000 Hours

How to Have Fulfilling Career That Does Good

Amir Levine

Years after revolutionising our understanding of attachment styles, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr Amir Levine returns with a brilliant, paradigm-shifting work on the science of secure human connection. As Dr Levine explains in Secure, people with a secure attachment style are the most comfortable not just in their relationships, but also in their own skins. And remarkably, the latest research shows that anyone, regardless of how insecure they may feel, can learn to create a secure life. 
 
The benefits of living in 'secure mode' are extraordinary: people tend to be healthier and have a better relationship with health care professionals. When they do have a difficult illness, they have fewer symptoms and handle it better emotionally. If they’re looking for a job, they’re more effective in their search and their self-esteem doesn’t suffer as much. They are less susceptible to consumerism. They even navigate social media better and experience fewer negative impacts. 
 
In Secure, Dr Levine presents his pioneering approach, Secure Therapy and Coaching, offering practical, neuroscience-backed tools to help readers cultivate security so that they can thrive. Secure is the definitive guide for anyone looking to improve their emotional health, deepen their connections, and build more fulfilling lives.
