If you're relying on willpower alone to help you lose weight, improve your relationships or achieve more at work, you're doomed to fail. The environment around us is far too powerful, stimulating, addicting and stressful to overcome it through sheer determination.

In this riveting first biography of a little-understood but hugely influential figure, acclaimed journalist Paddy Manning asks: Can the dutiful son hang onto the empire, or will the third generation of Murdoch moguls prove the last?

Women get mixed messages about how to succeed at work, and research shows that much of the career advice aimed at men doesn't even work for women. We’re left wondering: How do you say no without being labeled difficult? How do you get paid what you’re worth? Should you go for that next big promotion, even though it’ll impact your family?

A revolutionary new history of humankind through the prism of work, from the origins of life on Earth to our ever-more automated present. The work we do brings us meaning, moulds our values, determines our social status and dictates how we spend most of our time. But this wasn't always the case: for 95 percent of our species' history, work held a radically different importance. How, then, did work become the central organisational principle of our societies? How did it transform our bodies, our environments, our views on equality and our sense of time?

Florence Scovel Shinn told people exactly what to say to change their lives. And it worked. Men and women came to her broke, sick, and stuck. She gave them words to speak. They spoke them. Their circumstances changed. She understood that the subconscious mind has no sense of humor — it simply manifests what we tell it is true. So she gave people better things to tell it. This definitive collection includes all four of her works, unabridged and complete: The Game of Life and How to Play It — The foundational guide on how thought, word, and belief create your reality.
