Creative, advocate and optimist Jack Toohey says a more sustainable and equitable Australia is an achievable reality-we just need the courage to get informed, get connected and show up for the future we want.
The housing crisis, climate change, persistent gender inequity. A mounting mental health epidemic, a floundering media landscape, a political class that seems increasingly disconnected from voters ...
Jack says if you're feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world, you're not alone. But we created these systems, so we can re-create them.
Forget retirement, podcaster and author Bec Wilson has a new book on how to live the ultimate mid-life.
The period from your late 40s well into your 70s is what Bec calls your 'Prime Time'. These years can be some of the best of your life – if you make the right choices. Far from winding down, this is the time to truly live.
Have you tried everything, but life keeps getting worse, and now the way that you're coping has you on a less-than-great path?
Osher Günsberg and illustrator Campell Walker (aka 'Struthless') team up to offer a fierce, funny and unforgettable guide to getting you unstuck and back into action.
In this updated edition, join award-winning author Chris Hammer on a journey through Australia's largest river system, the Murray-Darling Basin.
His travels during the crippling millennium drought take us through riverland communities; sharing the laughter, the sadness surroundng a river that is collapsing and reflections of the people he meets along the way.
Journalist Nathan Dunne was living the life of his dreams in London until, one evening, he jumped into a lake for a swim. When he emerged, his identity was simply gone. He felt completely lost and in acute, inexplicable pain. He knew who he was supposed to be but had no connection to the person named Nathan. His memories were distant and separate, not his. Everything was unfamiliar. All he felt was terror.
This was the beginning of his experience with depersonalisation, a little-understood and on-the-rise mystery mental illness that causes a person to dissociate from their body and thoughts
Criminal defence lawyer, Jahan Kalantar has helped people in their most desperate hour, from hardened jailbirds to accidental offenders, disadvantaged delinquents to undeserving scapegoats.
Along the way, Jahan has learned that it’s not always the smartest person in the room who wins the day. There are other, more important skills: like being able to ask for help, stick to your values, listen without judgement, know when to be sceptical, and apologise like you mean it.
Jahan shares his insights through laugh-out-loud funny stories of his own triumphs and blunders, as well as those of his clients.
'Being stuck' can look and feel different to different people – trapped, powerless, hopeless, frozen, frustrated, numb, disconnected, anxious, overwhelmed. Getting stuck is part of being human. But staying stuck for too long robs us of our vitality. It costs us healthy relationships, meaningful pursuits and, most importantly, the life we want to live.
Dr Emily Musgrove, resident psychologist on the popular podcast The Imperfects, shares the key psychological processes and practical skills we need to know for transformative and lasting change.
Lottie Dalziel’s (founder of Banish and BRAD) book seeks to answer the questions that we all have – how to live well but with less impact on the planet, while saving money at the same time …
John Safran, always thought-provoking, digs into many facets of being Jewish and the stereotypes and generalisations that play out across the media landscape.
Discovering Kanye West is praising Adolf Hitler, he heads to America to find out what's up.
Kanye proves elusive, one thing tumbles into another, and John ultimately ends up squatting in one of Kanye's uninhabited mansions in the rolling hills of Los Angeles, using it as a 'writers' retreat', to write this book!
