Run Like Crazy

Mrs Robinson’s Disgrace

Tristan Miller

Kate Summerscale

When Tristan Miller lost his job as a result of the global economic crisis, he set himself a huge personal challenge. He would spend a year seeing the world, each week running an official marathon in a different country. He ran with the bulls, danced at festivals, strode across the Great Wall of China, and crawled beneath the Great Pyramids. He was robbed, suffered injuries, got sick and depressed. But he also covered 320,000 kilometres by plane, train, boat, bus and car, and ran over 2300 race kilometres. He proved to himself that you can do whatever you want to – just find the starting line, believe in yourself, and run like crazy!

Isabella Robinson sets out for a party at the home of the rich widow Lady Drysdale, where the ladies wear dresses of glinting silk and satin, and bodices pulled tight over boned corsets; the gentlemen in tailcoats, waistcoats, neckties, dark narrow trousers and shining shoes … A compelling story of romance and fidelity, insanity, fantasy, and the boundaries of privacy in a society clinging to rigid ideas about marriage and female sexuality, Mrs Robinson’s Disgrace brings vividly to life a complex, frustrated Victorian wife, longing for passion and learning, companionship and love.

The Boy Who Loved Apples: A Mother’s Battle with her Son’s Anorexia Amanda Webster When it became clear that Amanda Webster’s eleven-year-old son Riche was not just a little too skinny but dangerously ill, people were surprised. Do boys get anorexia? they would ask. And then, How did he get it? That was the question Amanda asked herself, too. She had trained as a doctor; she knew that every disease has a cause. And if her son had an eating disorder, she wondered what the cause could possibly be but something she and her husband Kevin had done—or failed to do? Brave, honest and ultimately uplifting, The Boy Who Loved Apples is a compelling and beautifully written account of life with an eating disorder, and a gritty, moving testament to a mother’s love.

Le Road Trip

Why You’re Not Married... Yet

Vivian Swift

Tracy McMillan

Road trip: those are still the two most inspiring words to vagabonds and couch potatoes alike. Le Road Trip combines the appeal of the iconic American quest with France’s irresistible allure, offering a totally new perspective of life on the road. It is the story of one idyllic French honeymoon trip, as well as a witty handbook of tips and advice on how to thrive as a traveller. Accompanied by a captivating visual record with hundreds of watercolour illustrations, Le Road Trip will appeal to armchair travellers, die-hard vagabonds, art journalists, and red wine drinkers alike.

With three marriages under her belt, Tracy McMillan knows how to get married, and she knows exactly why so many other women still aren’t. In Why You’re Not Married... Yet, she pulls no punches telling the modern woman precisely what she’s doing wrong. Tracy details in straightforward language ten reasons why single women are still single. But it’s not all tough love; she also offers up some seriously sage advice. Tracy doesn’t pretend to be an expert on lasting relationships – and says as much to whomever will listen – but she will get women down the aisle, with biting humour, wicked smarts, and heart to spare.

Life’s A Pitch

Just Ride

Philip Delves Broughton

Grant Petersen

What do the best rug seller in Marrakesh, the king of the US cable channels and the guru of the Japanese life insurance industry have in common? What makes the difference between an ordinary salesperson and the top ‘gunslingers’? Philip Delves Broughton, author of the bestselling What They Teach You at Harvard Business School, has journeyed around the world to meet living legends of sales from all walks of life. Their stories are at once insightful, human and hilarious. Life’s a Pitch reveals the secrets of making a perfect sale, and shows how commercial genius might live in all of us.

In the same way that Michael Pollan’s slim bestseller Food Rules brought a gust of common sense to the everyday activity of eating, Just Ride is a revelation overflowing with cycling wisdom. Petersen’s core belief is that riding a bike is a simple pleasure that is quickly and easily overcomplicated by folks imposing unrealistic expectations on themselves. So forget the ultralight, uncomfortable bikes, flashy jerseys, clunky shoes that clip onto tiny pedals, the grinding out of endless miles. Instead, ride like you did when you were a kid – just get on your bike and discover the pure joy of riding it.

Sleeping with Your Smartphone

Pieces Of Mind

Leslie A Perlow

Michael Corballis

In Sleeping with Your Smartphone, Harvard Business School professor and ethnographer Leslie Perlow delves into the new connected world of work and challenges the notion that you must be constantly plugged in to be successful. Furthermore, her work and her research suggests this 24/7 mentality is actually counterproductive. Based on her latest research, the author recommends a radical yet simple idea: take “disconnected” time off and both individual and team members will benefit.

The human mind is arguably the most complex organ in the universe. Modern computers might be faster, and whales might have larger brains, but neither can match the sheer intellect or capacity for creativity that we humans enjoy. In this book, Michael Corballis introduces us to what we’ve learned about the intricacies of the human brain over the last 50 years. Leading us through behavioural experiments and neuroscience, cognitive theory, and Darwinian evolution with his trademark wit and wisdom, Corballis punctures a few hot-air balloons and explains just what we know — and don’t know — about our own minds.

UnAustralian of the Year

The Antidote

Bill Leak

Oliver Burkeman

The public has rarely held politicians and the practice of politics in such contempt. Luckily Bill Leak is here to guide us through the darkness. UnAustralian of the Year contains Leak’s best editorial cartoons since 2007 and is a satirical history of an extraordinary period in Australian politics: from the enthusiastic popular mandate enjoyed by Kevin Rudd’s Labor after the 2007 federal election to the brutal merry-go-round of party leaders culminating in the rancour and instability surrounding Julia Gillard’s minority government. UnAustralian of the Year is a collection of the art and observations of cartoonist, painter and all-round contrarian — the incomparable Bill Leak.

In an approach that turns decades of self-help advice on its head, Oliver Burkeman explains why positive thinking serves only to make us more miserable, and why ‘getting motivated’ can exacerbate procrastination. Burkeman concedes that in our personal lives and the world at large, it’s our constant efforts to eliminate the negative—uncertainty, unhappiness, failure—that cause us to feel so anxious, insecure and unhappy. Hilarious and compulsively readable, The Antidote will have you on the road to happiness in no time.
