Book Description
“One of the most provocative new books of the year, and, for me, mindblowing.” —Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore's Dilemma and How to Change Your Mind “Kripal makes many sympathetic points about the present spiritual state of America. . . . [He] continues to believe that spirituality and science should not contradict each other.” —New York Times Book Review “Kripal prompts us to reflect on our personal assumptions, as well as the shared assumptions that create and maintain our institutions. . . . [His] work will likely become more and more relevant to more and more areas of inquiry as the century unfolds. It may even open up a new space for Americans to reevaluate the personal and cultural narratives they have inherited, and to imagine alternative futures.” —Los Angeles Review of Books A “flip,” writes Jeffrey J. Kripal, is “a reversal of perspective,” “a new real,” often born of an extreme, life-changing experience. The Flip is Kripal’s ambitious, visionary program for unifying the sciences and the humanities to expand our minds, open our hearts, and negotiate a peaceful resolution to the culture wars. Combining accounts of rationalists’ spiritual awakenings and consciousness explorations by philosophers, neuroscientists, and mystics within a framework of the history of science and religion, Kripal compellingly signals a path to mending our fractured world. Jeffrey J. Kripal holds the J. Newton Rayzor Chair in Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University and is the associate director of the Center for Theory and Research at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California. He has previously taught at Harvard Divinity School and Westminster College and is the author of eight books, including The Flip. He lives in Houston, Texas.

Book Description
Mind Flip is a new must-read career manual for anyone looking to change jobs, achieve promotion or find more fulfilling work. Written for all career stages from Graduate to Granddad, including Mum Returners, over 50s, women in business and the new self-employed, it is the culmination of Zena's many years of working in recruitment and career coaching. Mind Flipping is to flip your focus away from yourself and instead look outwards - on to the value you add and the problems you, uniquely, can solve for other people. Graham Norton believes that this philosophy will help you transform the way you look at your career - for ever! The book provides you with everything you need to fire up your career, on the future of recruitment and talent management. The first part Figure It Out will help you figure out the unique value you provide. Why should someone hire you, or use your services? The second part Crack On gives you the practical tools and techniques to launch your job search, in the quickest and most straightforward way, to find a new job, gain promotion or find the freelance work you want. The third section Just For You is if you need extra help to get you to where you want to be (as a freelancer, returner, working Mum, over 50s, graduate or disabled job seeker). The final part Fulfill It helps you to keep going, to maintain your network, keep raising the bar on your aspirations and achieve the ambitions you previously thought were impossible; or maybe you didn't know you had. It even includes a chapter on when things can go wrong - such as working for a Narcissistic Boss - and what to do about them.

Book Description
We all want fulfilling and rewarding careers. But we often allow our fears to take hold and miss the best way to achieve our goals. We prioritise ourselves and our needs when we should make the problems we can solve for potential employers of clients the backbone of our job search. Adjusting our mindset is the essence of MIND FLIP, the must-read career manual for anyone looking to change jobs, win a promotion or salary increase, or simply find more fulfilling work. It covers all career stages from graduate to granddad, including Mum returners, the over-50s, women in business, those who need extra help because of disability, and the newly self-employed. It is the result of Zena Everett's many years of working in recruitment and career coaching, and provides you with everything you need to fire up your career. No wonder UK broadcaster Graham Norton said: 'Zena is an absolute star. She will transform the way you look at your career for ever.' Part one, Figure It Out, helps you to figure out the unique value you provide. Why should someone hire you, or use your services? The second part, Crack On, gives you practical tools and techniques to launch your job search, land a new job, win a promotion, or find the freelance work you really want. Part three, Just For You, offers specific help for freelancers, returners to the workplace, working Mums, over-50s, graduates or disabled job seekers. The final part, Fulfil It, helps you to keep going, shows you how to maintain your network and keep raising the bar on your aspirations so you achieve the ambitions you previously thought were out of reach or which sat below your radar. MIND FLIP even includes a chapter that helps you to cope and emerge with your reputation intact when things go astray -- such as finding yourself working for a narcissistic boss.

Book Description
THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF PITCH ANYTHING IS BACK TO FLIP YOUR ENTIRE APPROACH TO PERSUASION. Is there anything worse than a high-pressure salesperson pushing you to say "yes" (then sign on the dotted line) before you're ready? If there's one lesson Oren Klaff has learned over decades of pitching, presenting, and closing long-shot, high-stakes deals, it's that people are sick of being marketed and sold to. Most of all, they hate being told what to think. The more you push them, the more they resist. What people love, however, is coming up with a great idea on their own, even if it's the idea you were guiding them to have all along. Often, the only way to get someone to sign is to make them feel like they're smarter than you. That's why Oren is throwing out the old playbook on persuasion. Instead, he'll show you a new approach that works on this simple insight: Everyone trusts their own ideas. If, rather than pushing your idea on your buyer, you can guide them to discover it on their own, they'll believe it, trust it, and get excited about it. Then they'll buy in and feel good about the chance to work with you. That might sound easier said than done, but Oren has taught thousands of people how to do it with a series of simple steps that anyone can follow in any situation. And as you'll see in this book, Oren has been in a lot of different situations. He'll show you how he got a billionaire to take him seriously, how he got a venture capital firm to cough up capital, and how he made a skeptical Swiss banker see him as an expert in banking. He'll even show you how to become so compelling that buyers are even more attracted to you than to your product. These days, it's not enough to make a great pitch. To get attention, create trust, and close the deal, you need to flip the script.

Book Description
What if you could flip the script on your biggest barriers and use every minute in your day to close the gap on the exact results and life you desire? It's staggering to consider that the average person now has up to 40,000 negative thoughts in a single day. As if that isn't enough, most people now feel completely overwhelmed and distracted with the never-ending barrage of messages we receive via our 24/7 access to technology and the Internet. When combining this with the self-doubt and fear that is now common in our society, you can see why so many people are settling for lives below their highest potential. But what if it doesn't have to be this way? What if you could take every single one of your negative patterns and flip the script on them? What would your life look like if you were able to replace them with powerful habits that pulled out your highest potential? What if you could operate at your highest capacity each day in the areas of life that mattered to you most? Just imagine the possibilities. Instead of 12.8 hours of negative thoughts dragging you down each day, you could reallocate all of this wasted time, ENERGY and capacity to closing the gap on your most meaningful goals. In place of the 4,672 hours allocated to counterproductive beliefs and emotions, you could tap into the deep inner desire you have as a human being to get out and create results and a life you absolutely love.In Flip the Script, Dr. Cooper outlined a blueprint on how to break free from your biggest barriers once and for all. In the process, he offers you insights on how to establish 10 "Yellow Ball" habits that will allow you to flip the script on your negative habits so you can pull out your highest potential in the key areas of your life.

Book Description
Combining the corporate intrigue of Joseph Finder, the satirical cultural critique of Dave Eggers, and the domestic drama of Laura Dave, Bit Flip is a fast-paced contemporary thriller that delivers an authentic insider’s view of the corrupting influences of greed, entitlement, and vanity in technology start-ups. Tech executive Sam Hughes came to Silicon Valley to “make the world a better place.” He’s just not sure he’s doing that anymore. And when an onstage meltdown sends him into a professional tailspin, he suddenly sees the culture of the Bay Area’s tech bubble in a new light. Just as Sam’s wondering if his start-up career and marriage might both be over at fortysomething, an inadvertent discovery pulls him back into his former company, where he begins to unravel the insidious schemes of the founder and venture investors. Driven by his desire for redemption, Sam discovers a conspiracy of fraud, blackmail, and manipulation that leads to tragic outcomes—threatening to destroy not only the company but also his own moral compass. Entangled in a web of complicity, how far will Sam go to achieve his dreams of entrepreneurial success?
