The Vaccine: Inside the Race to Conquer the COVID-19 Pandemic
When the world stopped, all hopes rested on finding a vaccine. An unlikely team answered the call.
Before Covid-19 was even given its name, a select group of scientists in Germany, assembled by married couple and decades-long research partners Uğur Şahin and Özlem Türeci, began building 20 potential vaccines.
As the deadly disease spread from country to country, what followed was a desperate race against time to conduct rigorous tests and clinical trials, whilst navigating political interference and seeking the support of the pharmaceutical industry.
Shedding a light on the science behind the breakthrough, The Vaccine tells the story of the trailblazers who led the fightback against Covid-19, whose discoveries could now help the world tackle cancer, along with many other pervasive diseases. It draws back the curtain on one of the most important medical achievements of our age, containing contributions from the fascinating couple themselves, as well as more than 60 scientists, politicians, public health officials, and BioNTech staff.
More suspenseful than a novel, this is a real-life story of an extraordinary race against time to save the world.

This book provides groundbreaking answers to the most important questions about addiction. Dr. Judson Brewer, a psychiatrist and neuroscientist who has studied the science of addictions for twenty years, reveals how we can tap into the very processes that encourage addictive behaviors in order to step out of them.

Weaving together patient stories, his own experience with mindfulness practice, and current scientific findings from his own lab and others, Dr. Brewer offers a path for moving beyond our cravings, reducing stress, and ultimately living a fuller life.Read more

Be Useful: Seven tools for life
THE INSTANT NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER
The seven rules to follow to realise your true purpose in life-distilled by Arnold Schwarzenegger from his own journey of ceaseless reinvention and extraordinary achievement, and available for absolutely anyone.
The world’s greatest bodybuilder. The world’s highest paid movie star. The leader of the world’s sixth largest economy. That these are the same person sounds like the setup to a joke. But this is no joke. This is Arnold Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident.
Arnold’s stratospheric success happened as part of a process. As the result of clear vision, big thinking, hard work, direct communication, resilient problem-solving, open-minded curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All of it guided by the one lesson Arnold’s father hammered into him above all: be useful. As Arnold conquered every realm he entered, he kept his father’s adage close to his heart.
Written with his uniquely earnest, blunt, powerful voice, BE USEFUL takes readers on an inspirational tour through Arnold’s toolkit for a meaningful life. Arnold shows us how to put those tools to work, in service of whatever fulfilling future we can dream up for ourselves. He brings his insights to vivid life with compelling personal stories, life-changing successes and life-threatening failures alike–some of them famous, some told here for the first time ever.
Too many of us struggle to disconnect from our self-pity and connect to our purpose. At an early age, Arnold forged the mental tools to build the ladder out of the poverty and narrow-mindedness of his rural Austrian hometown, tools he used to add rung after rung from there. Now he has shared that wisdom with all of us. As he puts it, no one is going to come rescue you — you only have yourself. The good news, it turns out, is that you are all you need.

How to improve and protect your mental health: Happier Self Worth Connected Resilient
Psychologists think of your mental health as being on a continuum – at one end is mental illness, and at the other is mental health. At different times, depending on what is happening in your life, you are at different points on this continuum.
Many people sit in the middle of the continuum, neither mentally healthy nor mentally ill. The American psychologist Cory Keyes called this ‘lethargic mental health’. He also discovered that you could move along the mental health continuum to become mentally healthy, what he called having ‘flourishing mental health’.
If you have flourishing mental health, you experience far more positive emotions, feel better about yourself, feel more connected to others, and you are up to six times less likely to develop common mental disorders such as depression or anxiety than someone with languishing mental health.
This book explains how you and those closest to you can move from lethargic to flourishing mental health by introducing research-validated mentally healthy habits and skills into your daily life.
Habits such as keeping a simple gratitude diary have been found by research psychologists to be effective in increasing the number of positive emotions you experience. There are also skills you can learn, such as using the Optimistic Framework, which will positively impact your mental health.
This book is written to be both accessible to you, whilst also properly referencing the research that underpins each habit and skill.Read more

After Injury: Reflection, Recovery and Re-Becoming Your Best Self
What does injury mean to you?
A setback? A disaster? An obstacle? An opportunity?
Labor and Employee Relations specialist Zaki J. Doudak reflects on the effects of injury, and offers his compassionate, clear-eyed guidance on how to respond when life changes lanes without indicating first.
Drawing on years of academic study and writing experience at law firms specializing in the plights of injured workers – often times, ironically, while injured himself – Doudak gathers his professional expertise and a sprinkling of timeless wisdom into this short volume of inspiring mini-essays on overcoming hardship.
Whether physical injury, psychological injury, cumulative trauma or sexual assault, Doudak offers encouragement, solace and ‘Big Picture’ strategies for coping when our batteries feel most depleted.
Over 10 concise chapters, Doudak offers readers a positive new perspective, underwritten by hard-won insights from his own life. It’s a self-help book to navigate difficult times. A “pep talk for the soul.” A road-map to feeling fully recharged.
While periods of incapacity and recovery can test our resolve, Doudak also believes they can provide a breathing space to reflect, reimagine and reevaluate our priorities. While we cannot change events, we can control how we react to them. And reinforcing positivity can make a key difference in outcomes.
A speedy recovery is about more than physical healing. It’s about mindset, resilience, and even having the patience to rest, so as not to risk re-injury and a prolonged recovery. It is not just for you; it is an insurance policy for anyone else who relies on you to be a positive influence.
While it is often for someone in a role of responsibility (a parent, partner or “breadwinner”) to feel like a burden, your ability to rely on others when you’re weak is often the surest way back to being strong for them.
After Injury is a welcome reminder to anyone in a time of hardship that while injuries can mean the end of one chapter, they are almost always the start of another.

How to Deal with Grief, Loss, and Death: A Survivor’s Guide to Coping with Pain and Trauma, and Learning to Live Again (Self Care Mastery Series)
How do you go on living when someone you love has died? How is life ever going to be the same again? How do you find the will to carry on? Is there such a thing as moving on?
Every year millions face the effects of dealing with loss and grief. This can be the result of death, divorce, moving, retirement, or other life events. Since society hasn’t provided effective ways of handling grief, many grievers feel lost and alone.
Grief is a reaction that happens when someone we love or care about dies or leaves. When this happens, a whole host of emotions might overwhelm you. Some of these emotions include feeling sad, angry, confused, or scared. What’s even more frightening is not knowing how to deal with this sudden wave of emotions that have hit you hard like a tsunami.
The pain of losing someone we love cannot be described in words. It feels like your whole world is falling apart. The crushing pain in your chest signals that your heart feels like it is breaking into a million pieces. It feels like the tears will never stop flowing. Your whole world has been turned upside down, and you might even feel like you will never smile again
There is no right or wrong way to deal with the loss of a loved one. The grieving process is challenging, and it’s different for everyone. It’s not just a matter of coping with a loss, but coping with change — and that takes time. Grief is not something that we want to avoid feeling either. Grief is part of our journey and human experience. To fight grief is to fight what’s natural. Instead, let grief guide you to be a more powerful being.
This is why I have written this survivor’s manual. How to Deal With Loss, Grief, and Death is your guide to coping with the loss of a loved one and how to find the will to live again.
This book is for:
- Anyone who has experienced the loss of a child, spouse, or loved one.
- Anyone experiencing grief and having a hard time coping
- Anyone that wants to honor the memory of their loved one
- Anyone who not only wants to better understand their loss but move away from the pain
- Anyone wanting to have despair turned into hope
- You feel stuck or in deep pain after a loss.
- You are wearing a mask pretending that you are fine but are secretly in pain.
- Anyone who wants a better understanding when helping friends or family deal with loss.
- Counselors and grief coaches who want another perspective to help their grieving clients.
In this book, you’ll learn:
- What is grief?
- How is grief expressed?
- How to identify where you are in the grieving process and how to move forward towards healing
- Practical exercises and coping techniques to assist with the grieving process
- Why Self-Care is an essential part of your recovery journey.
- The roadblocks to overcoming grief.
