For years, we've been told that being more healthy and productive is a matter of willpower: that we should follow the latest fad and make constant changes to our lifestyles. But whether in our diets, fitness plans or jobs, radical overhauls never work. Instead we should start with quick wins - and embed new, tiny habits into our everyday routines. The world expert on this is Silicon Valley legend B.J. Fogg, pioneering research psychologist and founder of the iconic Behaviour Design Lab at Stanford.

<p>For years, we&#8217;ve been told that being more healthy and productive is a matter of willpower: that we should follow the latest fad and make constant changes to our lifestyles. But whether in our diets, fitness plans or jobs, radical overhauls never work. Instead we should start with quick wins &#8211; and embed new, tiny habits into our everyday routines.</p>
<p>The world expert on this is Silicon Valley legend BJ Fogg, pioneering research psychologist and founder of the iconic Behaviour Design Lab at Stanford. Now <i>anyone</i> can use his science-based approach to make changes that are simple to achieve and sticky enough to last.</p>
<p>In the hugely anticipated <i>Tiny Habits</i>, BJ Fogg shows us how to change our lives for the better, one tiny habit at a time. Based on twenty years research and his experience coaching over 40,000 people, it cracks the code of habit formation. Focus on what is <i>easy</i> to change, not what is hard; focus on what you <i>want</i> to do, not what you should do. At the heart of this is a startling truth &#8211; that creating happier, healthier lives can be easy, and surprisingly fun.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s time to do things differently. </b><br /><b><br />Trust your team. Be radically honest. And never, ever try to please your boss.</b></p>
<p>These are some of the ground rules if you work at Netflix. They are part of a unique cultural experiment that explains how the company has transformed itself at lightning speed from a DVD mail order service into a streaming superpower &#8211; with 190 million fervent subscribers and a market capitalisation that rivals the likes of Disney.</p>
<p>Finally Reed Hastings, Netflix Chairman and CEO, is sharing the secrets that have revolutionised the entertainment and tech industries. With INSEAD business school professor Erin Meyer, he will explore his leadership philosophy &#8211; which begins by rejecting the accepted beliefs under which most companies operate &#8211; and how it plays out in practice at Netflix.</p>
<p>From unlimited holidays to abolishing approvals, Netflix offers a fundamentally different way to run any organisation, one far more in tune with an ever-changing fast-paced world. For anyone interested in creativity, productivity and innovation, the Netflix culture is something close to a holy grail. This book will make it, and its creator, fully accessible for the first time.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>&#8216;The unmistakable voice of Moto GP&#8217; &#8211; Valentino Rossi</b></p>
<p>As &#8216;The Voice&#8217; of motorcycle racing for forty years, commentator Nick Harris became the biggest star not on two wheels in the paddock, and this is his mostly eye-witness, white-knuckle account of MotoGP&#8217;s scorching seventy-year history.</p>
<p>The story starts on the Isle of Man in 1949, when Geoff Duke, with his slicked-back hair and one-piece black leathers, became the nation&#8217;s hero, defying the odds and winning the most dangerous race in the world on a British-built Norton. Just over a decade later at Mallory Park, another British champion and one of the greatest riders of all time Mike Hailwood screamed past a young Nick Harris on his 250cc Honda, and a life-long passion was born.</p>
<p>Harris has been at the centre of the sport for decades, getting to know the riders as individuals, seeings feuds unfold, champions made, careers and sometimes lives ended. We&#8217;ll see the biggest podium stars up close, from Barry Sheene and Kenny Roberts to Valentino Rossi, and we&#8217;ll meet the mechanics behind them, the manufacturers who poured millions into the teams, and the organisers who, in the early days, ruthlessly compromised rider safety for profits. The drama has often been as tense off the track as on it.</p>
<p>This is the book the motorcycling world has been waiting for.</p>
