Life is for Living
John Shackleton challenges anyone to live to 100, and to get there happily, healthy and full of zest to last another 100 years. Part autobiography, this top athlete discovered he was faster at the age of 50 than he had been years earlier during international championship swimming meets and trials for commonwealth games contention. He' personally looks far younger than his 50+ years, and has taken on fatherhood late in life (two sons aged 4 & 2), and loves to prove that life is indeed for living and enjoying and there's no room for excuses by anyone who thinks otherwise.
The Art of Persistence
The Art of Persistence examines the relations between art and politics in transwar Japan, exploring these via a microhistory of the artist, memoirist, and activist Akamatsu Toshiko (also known as Maruki Toshi, 1912–2000).

His clients are grumbling about his fees, his partners believe the firm is underperforming, and his doctor says' he's heading for a heart attack. All his business is about these days is busyness, and it's not a lot of fun anymore. We join Andrew on a journey of discovery as he meets up with Karen, a graphic designer who has been working on her business in preparation for her region's business awards. As Karen runs through her presentation for his critical benefit, Andrew notices the many similarities between her business and his own. He is impressed by all the ways that Karen has managed to deal with the same general issues of keeping customers happy, invoicing for value (instead of time) and most of all, how she has increased efficiencies that typically lead to bottlenecking that slows down productivity.
