The incredible popularity of Getting Things Done revealed people's need to take control of their own productivity with a system that reduces the stress of staying on top of it all.

While Getting Things Done remains the definitive way to gain perspective over work and create the mental space for creativity and mindfulness, The Getting Things Done Workbook enhances the original by providing an accessible guide to the GTD methodology in workbook form. The workbook divides the process into small, manageable segments to allow for easier learning and doing

Whether we're asking our neighbour to move a fence or our boss for a pay rise, we can struggle to avoid arguments and get what we want • Laurence and Emily Alison are world leaders in forensic psychology, and they specialise in the most difficult interactions imaginable: criminal interrogations.

The environment has long been the undisputed territory of the political Left, which has seen the principal threats to the earth as issuing from international capitalism, consumerism and the over-exploitation of natural resources. In Green Philosophy, Scruton argues that conservatism is far better suited to tackle environmental problems than either liberalism or socialism. He shows that rather than entrusting the environment to unwieldy NGOs and international committees, we must assume personal responsibility and foster local sovereignty. People must be empowered to take charge of their environment, to care for it as a home, and to affirm themselves through the kind of local associations that have been the traditional goal of conservative politics

The author of "The Perfect Nanny" is not expecting flower showers and accolades. Moreover, she is ready to hear criticism and experience mudslinging. This happens often when the book touches on painful or forbidden subjects. The topic of relationships between families and their house servants has been a painful and taboo topic for years and years. On both sides, too. However, while complaints of a nanny are often given at least a compassionate hearing, good advice by an experienced stay-at-home Mom or Dad is often met with indignation and protest. Nastasia Rose stands firmly on the ground. She understands very well all the consequences of her bold step, and is ready to face them. She is confident that the foam of indignation will recede, and the book will remain, helping revive one of the noblest professions, which is now again in demand
