What if we told you...that dishonesty in children is a positive traitthat arguing in front of your kids can make you a good role modeland that if you praise your children you risk making them fail...and it was all true?Using a cutting-edge combination of behavioural psychology and neuroscience, award-winning journalists Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman have produced an innovative, counter-intuitive read that will change the way we interact with our children forever.They demonstrate that for years our best intentions with children have been our worst ideas, using break-through scientific studies to prove that our instincts and received wisdom are all wrong. Nurtureshock is the Freakonomics of childhood and adolescence, exploring logic-defying insights into child development that have far-reaching relevance for us all.

Are you looking for the right path in 2021? This book tackles the question that most of us face at some point in our lives: 'what should I do with my life?', and provides illuminating answers. Bronson's book is a fascinating account of finding and following the people who have taken the ultimate challenge of self-discovery by uprooting their lives and starting all over again. From the investment banker who gave it all up to become a catfish farmer in Mississippi, to the chemical engineer from Walthamstow who decided to become a lawyer in his sixties. These stories of individual dilemmas and dramatic - sometimes unsuccessful - gambles are bound up with Bronson's account of his own search for a calling.'Inspirational... This book fascinates because of the broad spectrum of testimonies' Financial Times'Something more than the usual self-help guff. What Should I Do with My Life? is closer to the oral histories of Studs Terkel or This American Life than to Tony Robbins' Times

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Po Bronson comes a riotous satire of bond traders which is “perhaps the most entertaining depiction of greed on Wall Street ever to reach print” (Business Week).Sid Geeder is the King of Mortgages at Atlantic Pacific, accumulating bonuses and stock options at a rate that drives other bankers wild with jealousy.But Sid is miserable. He is fed up of selling bonds he hates to people he despises in a job that consumes his life, and he is desperate to cash in his lucrative options and get out.The only one who can replace him is Eggs Igino, a rebellious boy wonder who refuses to be seduced by the money or intimidated by management threats.When Eggs mysteriously disappears, total havoc follows, and in the chaos Sid finds himself torn agonizingly between his promised payout and his long-anticipated freedom.As fast-paced and frenetic as the stock exchange itself, Bombardiers is an unforgettable US National Bestseller about corporate America and a book that defines our times.
