Lecture
An energetic and irreverent essay on the forgotten art of the lecture, part of Transit's new Undelivered Lectures series.
The Last Lecture
A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

Stay Curious
Ten years ago, Clare and David Hieatt started the Do Lectures with a simple aim: To gather together the world's Doers - disruptors and change makers, experts and pioneers - to share their stories, and encourage others to go and Do. Since that time, the Do Lectures has grown into a small but mighty institution, a unique gathering around ideas set over four days on their farm in West Wales. It has attracted world-class speakers and inspired countless attendees to follow their passions. Stay Curious is a celebration of the Do Lectures' life-changing magic, full of personal insight and lessons learnt over the last decade - from curating the very best speakers, to styling and producing a beautifully intimate event, and the importance of people, place and passion. A 304-page hardback with full colour and B&W film photography, Stay Curious: How we created a world-class event in a cowshed invites you to experience this special event and shares insight on how to curate and host your own beautiful gatherings.
Do Improvise
Every day we deal with the unplanned and the unexpected, from a broken toaster to losing (or gaining) a major client. Our natural ability to adapt and improvise gets us through. But we feel as if we're winging it, rather than acting with courage and conviction. Robert Poynton teaches his acclaimed method to some of the world's biggest brands and companies. Now, he shows us how these improvisational skills can be applied to the everyday business of work and life. Newly updated, Do Improvise will help you to navigate the obstacles life throws at you, and recognise that uncertainty can be enjoyed, rather than endured. You will: -Become more productive without trying harder -Overcome creative blocks and generate new ideas -Respond fluidly to events beyond your control -Realise that you don't have to know everything Not sure what to do next? Improvise.
Feynman's Lost Lecture
On 14 March 1964 Richard Feynman, one of the greatest scientific thinkers of the 20th Century, delivered a lecture entitled 'The Motion of the Planets Around the Sun'. For thirty years this remarkable lecture was believed to be lost. But now Feynman's work has been reconstructed and explained in meticulous, accessible detail, together with a history of ideas of the planets' motions. The result is a vital and absorbing account of one of the fundamental puzzles of science, and an invaluable insight into Feynman's charismatic brilliance.
