What is the power of human connection? How does serving others lead to a more fulfilling life? Dr. Eric R. George answers these questions in his new book, We: Ditch the Me Mindset and Change the World. George first learned the importance of human connection through his work as a hand surgeon, treating patients from every background, ethnicity, age, and gender. These experiences showed him the priceless value of what others could teach him about the world and himself. His encounters challenged his perspective, defied his assumptions, and ultimately expanded his success far beyond medicine. Now, he shares the learnings that have transformed his life. In We, George presents the value of embracing a mindset of connectedness, where the people we encounter represent the source of a fulfilling life. Through a series of compelling anecdotes and observations, he takes readers on a journey to reveal six key outcomes of his timeless philosophy. One of the most important books in recent years, We offers readers an experience as captivating as it is profound.
One boy. One prophecy. One choice. George is young, impaired, and completely alone. He is responsible for the death of his parents and the reason why one inquisitive Faun needs to protect him. Maliciously treated by his stepfather, George wears the scars of his torment across his back. He cannot escape his stepfather, and he has all but given up hope of ever doing so. But when he peers through the window of his stepfather's shack one night, he sees something strange: an earless creature in the middle of the street. Intrigued by it, George saves it from the road, and the next thing he knows, he's in the middle of nowhere. Before he can enjoy his freedom, however, George is forced into a fiendish forest where he crosses paths with a Witch, Tamsin, and witnesses the callousness of nature as it turns on them. Evading death, George and Tamsin are saved by Thumbalas, a Faun, who identifies George as the Dryatrix: a prophesied force said to be the saviour or destroyer of the natural world.

Written by science educator Lucy Hawking and her father - the most famous scientist in the world - and illustrated by Garry Parsons, George's Secret Key to the Universe will take you on a rollercoaster ride through space to discover the mysteries of our universe.

Eric de Jong and his wife, Jenny plunged into parenthood when they adopted three siblings from the children's dying mother. The new family set about living happily ever after in their rambling farmhouse outside Harare. But ever after proved short lived as Zimbabwe's small window of stability closed in on them quickly when Robert Mugabe unleashed a war on white farmers and opposition party members, launching an era of economic, social and political turmoil which eventually saw the family fleeing the country for fear of being killed.Eric well knew the cost of conflict, but his fierce love of his country and his principles saw him immersing himself in the dangerous opposition politics of the day where elections were rigged and fellow party members were tortured and murdered.Eric de Jon's irrepressible sense of humour bubbles throughout this absorbing, honest and deeply personal account of a growing family, of love, entrepreneurial success and failure, mental illness, political exile, and the distressing and often absurd collapse of a beautiful African country and stoicism of its people.
