David Fox-Pitt MBE is a born motivator who has been enthusing and inspiring people for over thirty years. Fox-Pitt is passionate about making a difference. The staggering impact of his adventure challenge business, WildFox Events Ltd, is testament to this and has so far raised over AGBP40 million for charity world-wide, all from the family base in the Scottish Highlands. He likes to tempt people to surpass their own expectations as they take part in his events and he leads by example by pushing himself - in 2019 he cycled from Land's End to John O' Groats on a Penny Farthing. Afterwards he admitted it was one of the toughest challenges he'd ever undertaken. Why the Penny Farthing? "e;...because it makes people smile"e;. Positiverosity(R) is David's word for positive energy combined with a generous spirit and is the core value behind his motivational programmes davidfoxpitt.club

In Rediscovering Colors: A Study in Pollyanna Realism, Michael Watkins endorses the Moorean view that colors are simple, non-reducible, properties of objects. Consequently, Watkins breaks from what has become the received view that either colors are reducible to certain properties of interest to science, or else nothing is really colored. What is novel about the work is that Watkins, unlike other Mooreans, takes seriously the metaphysics of colors. Consequently, Watkins provides an account of what colors are, how they are related to the physical properties on which they supervene, and how colors can be causally efficacious without the threat of causal overdetermination. Along the way, he provides novel accounts of normal conditions and non-human color properties. The book will be of interest to any metaphysician and philosopher of mind interested in colors and color perception.
