Hardwired Humans
Offices are not our natural habitat. Leadership is easier when we understand the nine instincts that still drive human behaviour.

Handbook of Obesity, Two-Volume Set
This 2 volume set comprises of the 3rd edition of Volume 1 and the 4th edition of Volume 2, both published in 2014.

It discusses the consequences of obesity, prevention, evaluation of the overweight patient, and a range of treatment options, including behavior modification, diet, exercise, medications, and surgical procedures.

The Ten Thousand Things
Glenn Martin's first novel tells the story of a man's journey towards leadership, a story that takes us into the heart of the I Ching and its universal values. A man comes to a leadership position after a series of life-shaping experiences. He brings with him as a companion the I Ching, the ancient Chinese book of changes. He faces an immediate crisis, when the president is arrested for embezzling all the funds, but he brings the organisation back from collapse, building it up even as he learns how to be a good leader and manager. However, enemies arrive with a destructive agenda and it suddenly seems as if he and everything he has built up will be destroyed. In the midst of it all, the I Ching offers its wisdom and calls him to be his best self. So he strives to lead effectively and ethically, and find the joy that lies at the heart of all things. And along the way there is love.
