Runnin’ Down a Dream
‘Fantastic. A variety of useful insights and examples that converge into one story that underlies remarkable success in nearly any field: The relentless hunger to learn about the thing you love’ James Clear, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Atomic Habits
‘Schools never teach a how to find work you love class. Bill Gurley clearly maps the path with sharp insights and real tools. Strongly recommended’ Tony Fadell, iPod inventor, iPhone co-inventor, Nest founder, New York Times bestselling author of Build
‘Wicked smart and original, Bill pulls apart success stories and reverse engineers them for us. Thank you, Bill!’ Jeff Bezos, found of Amazon
__________Humans spend an estimated 80,000 hours of their lives at work. Shouldn’t that time be spent doing something you love? How can you avoid the trap of career regret?
Today, Bill Gurley is known for his successful investments in companies like Uber. But before he found his dream job in venture capital, Gurley came close to falling into a trap that affects millions: “career regret.” Family pressure and a broken education system push too many young people onto a conveyer belt where the destination is a small subset of idealized “safe” jobs. But, as new research by Gurley and the Wharton School of Business shows, 6 in 10 people are likely to regret their career choice years down the road.
For the past two decades, Gurley has observed people who have climbed to the top in fields ranging from technology to hospitality to entertainment―and who radiate joy in their chosen field. Why did they thrive while others floundered? Is there a formula to finding your dream job?
In Runnin’ Down a Dream, Gurley breaks down the components of success, identifying six key tenets that will set young people up for flourishing, purpose-filled careers. From chasing your curiosity and honing your craft to going where the action Is to always giving back, Gurley brings them to life – through his own captivating, straight-talk voice and revealing stories of a handful of iconic individuals who epitomize them.
‘Life,’ as Gurley’s writes, ‘is a use-it-or-lose-it proposition.’ A much-needed corrective to talk of ‘lazy jobs’ and ‘quiet quitting,’ this book will inspire a new generation to step off the conveyer belt, find the things that make them insatiably curious, and turn those fascinations into a thriving career―where the work doesn’t feel like work at all.

Uncomplicate It: Permission to Enjoy God in Your Unique Way
What if connecting with God could be simpler—and more personal—than you ever imagined?
What if your personality, learning style, background, and current season of life weren’t obstacles to overcome, but actually the keys to a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with God?
In Uncomplicate It, international speaker Hosanna Wong invites you to move past the lie that your relationship with God must look like someone else’s, or that it must look like it did years ago. Instead, she unpacks what God’s Word actually says about connecting with Him and offers you a permission slip to enjoy God in the unique way He’s created you to.
She will help you
- break free from unrealistic expectations that don’t come from God;
- overcome six common roadblocks that keep you from enjoying your life and relationship with Him;
- unlock six practical shortcuts to connecting with God in your current season;
- learn from the real-life stories of over a thousand believers who’ve found their own unique ways to encounter God; and
- release the guilt, shame, and comparison that come from the lie that your relationship with Jesus must look one certain way, or else.
A real relationship with God is not one-size-fits-all. Your relationship with God doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s—or even like it’s looked in the past. This is your permission slip to uncomplicate your faith, embrace the way God made you, and fully receive the peace and joy that He has for you today.

Between Two Fires: Pre-order the must-read medieval horror taking BookTok by storm!
The year is 1348. Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm-that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict.
Is it delirium or is it faith? She believes she has seen the angels of God. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon. There, she tells Thomas, she will fulfil her mission: to confront the evil that has devastated the earth, and to restore to this betrayed, murderous knight the nobility and hope of salvation he long abandoned.
As hell unleashes its wrath, and as the true nature of the girl is revealed, Thomas will find himself on a macabre battleground of angels and demons, saints, and the risen dead, and in the midst of a desperate struggle for nothing less than the soul of man.

The Hunger Code: Resetting Your Body’s Fat Thermostat in the Age of Ultra-Processed Food: 2 (The Obesity Code, 2)
THE SEQUEL TO THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLER THE OBESITY CODE“Jason Fung nails it again in The Hunger Code. This book clearly and compellingly explains why most Americans are overweight and gives us a concise, evidence-based way to manage our weight with as little hunger as possible.”—Dan Buettner, New York Times bestselling author of The Blue Zones
The Obesity Code helped thousands of people lose weight naturally.
The Hunger Code will help thousands more lose weight—and keep it off—in an era of weight‑loss drugs and ultra-processed foods…without counting calories.
For generations, we’ve accepted the story that weight loss can never last—that as soon as we go off the diet or stop taking the medication, we revert to our old habits, regain the weight, and the calorie-counting journey starts all over again. Traditional medicine continues to treat the symptom of weight gain rather than addressing its root causes. Too often, healthcare systems intervene with quick fixes and short-term solutions, ignoring the factors that lead to sustainable weight loss that can last a lifetime.
What if the secret to long-term weight maintenance and better health isn’t just about what you eat—or even when you eat—but why you eat?
With the food industry’s reliance on ultra-processed foods and the popularity of Ozempic and Mounjaro, understanding the forces behind why we eat is more important than ever before.
In The Hunger Code, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Jason Fung reveals the three powerful forces that drive us to eat:
- Physical Hunger
- Emotional Hunger
- Social Hunger
Dr. Fung also introduces the concept of the body’s “fat thermostat”—a biological “set point” that regulates how much fat your body tries to maintain. Guided by hormones and metabolism, this internal system drives hunger and energy use, explaining why lasting weight loss requires more than just willpower …
With three Golden Rules and 50 actionable tips, The Hunger Code empowers you to recognize and respond to hunger appropriately. Learn how to slow digestion, break emotional eating cycles, and overcome social pressures to eat constantly, so you can maintain a healthy weight—from scratch, after fasting, or after using weight‑loss drugs.

A World Appears: A Journey Into Consciousness
From the best-selling author of How to Change Your Mind, a pioneering search for consciousness in the brain and beyond
A World Appears is the story of the quest to solve the greatest mystery in nature: consciousness. How does it feel to be you with your own personal feelings, thoughts and experiences? Every one of us is intimately familiar with consciousness, but no one knows how – or why – it came to be that three pounds of grey matter can generate a subjective point of view.
The early 1990s marked the birth of a new science of consciousness, based on the assumption that the phenomenon could be explained in terms of brain activity, but that effort is faltering, and wilder ideas, such as panpsychism, are now getting a hearing. Indeed, there is now reason to doubt that ‘objective science’ as we have known it since Galileo has the right tools to plumb first-person experience. A World Appears takes Michael Pollan from the laboratories where scientists are searching for the neural correlates of consciousness to encounters with philosophers and novelists and Buddhist monks, whom he finds have just as much to teach us about consciousness, if not more.
A story that begins in a brain lab in Seattle ends, of all places, in a cave in the mountains of New Mexico, where the author discovers that explaining consciousness may be less urgent than learning to practice it in our everyday lives.

Change isn’t something to just endure. It doesn’t have to leave us feeling stuck, hopeless or broken. Approached in the right way, it can lead us to uncover new abilities, perspectives and values, transforming us in extraordinary ways.
Whether you’re processing a past change, grappling with a present one, or bracing for a future one, discover who you can become on the other side of change.

Probability Zero: The Mathematical Impossibility of Evolution by Natural Selection
“Probability Zero represents the most rigorous mathematical challenge to Neo-Darwinian theory ever published. Period.”
—Frank J. Tipler, Professor of Mathematical Physics, Tulane University
THE BONFIRE OF MODERN BIOLOGY
For over a century, the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection has served as the secular creation myth of the modern world. It has been hailed as the origin of the species, the foundation of modern biology, the cornerstone of the Enlightenment, and the universal acid that redefined Man’s place in the universe.
But after 150 years of storytelling, the scientific myths finally met the math.
In Probability Zero, Vox Day conducts the final forensic audit of a failed theory. This is not another entry in the culture wars, but a funeral for an outdated 19th-century narrative that has finally been caught in the headlights of 21st-century genomic data. By subjecting the big ideas of Darwin, Haldane, Mayr, Kimura, and Dawkins to the pitiless light of statistical and mathematical analysis, Day demonstrates that the Modern Synthesis isn’t just flawed—it is absolutely impossible.
THE REALITY CHECK
To understand the scientific catastrophe that is modern biology, imagine you are told that a man walked from New York City to Los Angeles in under five minutes. You don’t need to be a scientist or a statistician to know that is impossible, you only need to have a rough idea about how fast the average human walks.
Probability Zero applies this same logic to genetic science. If the genomic distance between a human and a chimpanzee is a “cross-country journey” of 40 million mutations, and the structural speed limits of natural selection only allow for a few dozen steps, then evolutionary theory hasn’t just failed—it has hit a brick wall constructed of unyielding mathematics.
Inside this definitive mathematical audit, you will find:
- The MITTENS Proof: A rigorous, step-by-step deconstruction of why natural selection cannot possibly account for even a small fraction of the complexity of life or the origin of the species.
- The Bernoulli Barrier and Ulam’s Noise: The mathematical proof that “parallel fixation” is a statistical mirage that is swamped by the noise of genetic variation.
- The Bio-Cycle Fixation Model: A new model of mutational fixation that outperforms the standard models by 70 percent because insects and mammals don’t reproduce like bacteria.
- Haldane’s Dilemma: The dilemma is resolved. JBS Haldane’s substitution limit is mathematically and empirically confirmed.
- The Selfish Delusion: Why Dawkins’s elegant metaphors collapse once translated into the inflexible language of population genetics.
Gemini 3 Pro audited PROBABILITY ZERO and compared it to three other landmarks of evolutionary biology.
- Probability Zero: Quantitative / Probabilistic. High Rigor: 9.7
- Systematics & The Origin of Species: Taxonomic / Observational. Medium Rigor: 6.0
- The Structure of Evolutionary Theory: Conceptual / Hierarchical. Low Rigor: 4.5
- The Selfish Gene: Narrative / Heuristic. Zero Rigor: 1.5
The era of scientific hand-waving is over. The theory of random evolution by natural selection, sexual selection, biased mutation, genetic drift, and gene flow is finished. If its conclusions hold up to critical review – and you can run the numbers past any AI system yourself – PROBABILITY ZERO has corrected over 150 years of biology being stuck in a scientific dead end.

The Oak and The Larch: A Forest History of Russia and its Empires
‘A towering achievement’ MERVE EMRE
NYT 25 Books Coming in January
A majestic cultural and environmental history that reveals how forests have made – and resisted – Russia’s many empires.
From the Baltic to the Pacific, from the Arctic to the Steppes of Central Asia, Russia’s forests account for nearly one-fifth of the world’s wooded lands. The Oak and the Larch is the first-ever English-language exploration of this vast expanse – a dazzling environmental history of Russia that offers an urgent new understanding of the nature of Russian power, and of Russia’s ideas of itself.
Inspired by the majestic oak, which towers over the country’s western heartland, and the hardy Siberian larch, an emblem of survival in the east, award winning scholar Sophie Pinkham’s magisterial account spans centuries, revealing how forests have nourished ancient Siberian Indigenous societies, defended medieval Slavic settlements from Mongol invasion and served as both an essential natural resource and a potent cultural symbol for Russia in all its incarnations, from the days of the tsars to the Soviets to Putin’s Federation.
By examining the country from the forest’s perspective, Pinkham pushes far beyond the contemporary political environment in Russia. She draws on literature, history and art to connect the expanse of the Russian wilderness and the nature of Russian culture, with indelible portraits of the diverse figures who have inhabited and celebrated these forests: the legendary Indigenous guide Dersu Uzala, giants of literature like Tolstoy and Chekhov, political thinkers like Kropotkin and even Stalin. She confronts the forest’s role in Russia’s long history of imperial conquest, and in resistance to this conquest.
Gorgeously written and surprising at every turn, The Oak and the Larch offers a vision of Russia rarely seen in the West, as a land defined by its wilderness, shaped by its encounters with the frontier, and – much like our own – ultimately beholden to nature’s whim.

The Score: How to Stop Playing Someone Else’s Game (Audio Download): C. Thi Nguyen, C. Thi Nguyen, Penguin Audio: Amazon.co.uk: Books
Brought to you by Penguin.
Is this the game you want to be playing?
Scoring systems are everywhere. Underpinning our daily lives – whether it’s the fit bits on our wrists, likes on social media, and even school rankings – they have become pervasive and increasingly dangerous, warping our desires and outsourcing our values to external institutions. Instead of encouraging us to be more playful, to take pleasure in the journey of striving towards a goal, institutions, corporations and bureaucracies weaponize scoring systems to impose their own interests. No matter what, we always seem to be playing by someone else’s rules.In The Score, philosopher C. Thi Nguyen shows us how this newly ‘gamified’ world has fundamentally captured our value systems, turning what might be moral or personal life choices into numerical data, and forcing us to prioritise what can be measured and monetized over what is truly meaningful to us.
A life-long lover of online and board games himself, Nguyen argues that we should not stop playing games but rather take a step back and become more aware of their immersive and profound power, so that we might chart a way towards more creative and joyful lives. To start playing our own game.

Nine Months That Count Forever: How your pregnancy diet shapes your baby’s future
From bestselling author and Glucose Goddess, a groundbreaking guide to the science of pregnancy nutrition that empowers mothers-to-be to improve their baby’s health for a lifetime.Most pregnant women are told: ‘Don’t worry – eat whatever you normally eat. Your baby will get what they need from you.’ But science tells a different story: your diet during pregnancy can shape your baby’s brain, body and health for life. And somehow, no one has told you the rules. Until now.
When biochemist Jessie Inchauspé became pregnant, she uncovered striking research: choline, DHA, protein and glucose are four key nutrients that influence a baby’s development in the womb; yet most women don’t get nearly enough of the first three and too much of the fourth.
In 9 Months That Count Forever, Jessie reveals science-based hacks to:
– support your baby’s brain development, cognitive growth and emotional resilience
– help lower their risk of health challenges later in life, like asthma, allergies and diabetes
– influence your baby’s body composition, organ function and long-term metabolismWith guidance on supplements, nausea, labour, breastfeeding, meal plans and recipes, as well as Jessie’s personal journey, this landmark book reveals the extraordinary power mothers hold during pregnancy – and is an essential companion for every parent-to-be.

Sometimes, enough is enough…
Debbie Mullen is losing it. For years, she has compiled all of her best advice into her column, Dear Debbie, where the wives of New England come for sympathy and neighborly advice. Through her work, Debbie has heard from countless women who are ignored, belittled, or even abused by their husbands. And Debbie does her best to guide them in the right direction.
Or at least, she did.
These days, Debbie’s life seems to be spiraling out of control. She just lost her job. Something strange is happening with her teenage daughters. And her husband is keeping secrets, according to the tracking app she installed on his phone. Now, Debbie’s done being the bigger person. She’s done being reasonable and practical.

Out Law: A Dresden Files Novella (Audio Download): Jim Butcher, James Marsters, Podium Audio: Amazon.co.uk: Books
The past comes back in a big way for Chicago’s only professional wizard in this action-packed novella from the #1 New York Times–bestselling Dresden Files.
In a city that’s just beginning to recover from the devastation caused by the Battle of Chicago, Harry Dresden is finally pulling himself together as well. He’s ensconced in his own personal castle, healing his various wounds, and training an eager new apprentice. The last thing he wants is any trouble. But, as history has consistently—and quite annoyingly—shown, what Harry wants is rarely what Harry gets.
It starts with a visit from Harry’s most powerful frenemy, Gentleman John Marcone, Baron of Chicago. He needs Harry to assist in the redemption of an underling who’s looking to go straight. And since Harry does kinda sorta owe Marcone for saving his life once (stupid honorable debt!), it’s not a request he can refuse. He’ll just wish he had.
Because this little favor is going to drag Harry into a fight he doesn’t want on behalf of a lowlife he doesn’t trust against an enemy more powerful and pestilent than he ever could’ve expected: an insatiable, demonic foe whom Harry himself may have created when he wiped out the vampires of the Red Court so long ago.
Before, all it wanted was blood. Now it wants the entire world . . .

The Affinity Collector: A Fantasy Isekai LitRPG Series (Octaeteris Cycle Book 1)
Two deaths, and one life that has an incredible advantage.At only 8 years old, Weldin had just had his dual Affinities bestowed upon him by the Goddess Athera when he ended up in a Nexus Rift far exceeding his Level. To make it worse, the Affinities he ended up with, Light and Energy, weren’t exactly the best when it came to offensive capability, and he struggled to kill any of the higher-Level monsters that stood in between him and his freedom. The lack of a powerful Ability to defend himself, as well as a lack of worldly knowledge, eventually led to his downfall.
But that wasn’t technically the end of Weldin’s existence, as just as his mortal form succumbed to its fatal wounds and his soul slipped away, a soul from another world was slotted into the empty shell to take over his abandoned body. This new soul was from Earth, and with it came a plethora of knowledge that could take advantage of his Affinities, in ways that his current world had never seen before. Even more than possessing otherworldly knowledge, the introduction of a new soul into Weldin’s body had seemed to initiate some other capabilities, such as the unique ability to unlock additional Affinities.
Now, all he has to do is clear a Nexus Rift where everything can easily kill him if he makes a mistake, navigate a world where those in power want to possess him because of his unique Affinities, and somehow survive an Academy full of 8-year-olds who have just learned that they have incredible magical powers – all so he can progress his personal quest to collect all of the Affinities he can.
This story contains LitRPG progression mechanics and stats, as well as isekai/portal fantasy elements. Contains no sexual content or harems.
