Success is no longer just about talent, or knowledge or skill. Today, it is also about freeing ourselves from the blinkers and blind spots that beset us all, and harnessing a critical new ingredient: cognitive diversity. In this bold and inspiring new book, Matthew Syed - the bestselling author of Bounce and Black Box Thinking - offers a radical new approach to success and a route map to how we can tackle our most complex challenges, such as obesity, terrorism and climate change.

Rebel Ideas draws upon cutting-edge research in psychology, economics and anthropology, and takes lessons from a dazzling range of case studies, including the catastrophic intelligence failings of the CIA before 9/11, a communication breakdown at the top of Mount Everest and a moving tale of deradicalisation in America's Deep South.

Discover the truth about you and your partner with this guide to synastry--the astrological art of relationship compatibility! Why do we attract certain people to us, and why are we attracted to them? What planetary influence is going on when we first meet? Answer these questions with Relationship Astrology. Written for beginners and intermediate star-gazers alike, this in-depth guide to synastry (the astrological art of relationship compatibility determined by the comparison of two charts) includes all you need to know to set up an affinity chart between you and another. You'll be privy to interpretations for every combination of planets, rising signs, and elemental energies to work out your affinity with a new admirer, lover, or current partner.

The book explores relationships from both a psychological and also mysteriously "fated" angle by examining affinity charts. The chart reveals important information, such as emotional needs, issues around sex or power, and whether the relationship is purely physical or primed for long-term love. You'll learn how Venus, Mars, and the asteroid Eros define your sexual compatibility. (hide)

In recent years, there has been an astonishing revival of religious practices in China. Rather than counting the number of religious practitioners or measuing the growth in the number of temples and churches, anthropologist Adam Yuet Chau's vivid study explores how religion is embedded in contemporary Chinese lives and society, from personal devotion to community-wide festivals. Covering Buddhism, Daoism and folk religion, as well as Christianity and Islam, this ethnographically rich book provides crucial insights into the contemporary relevance of religious traditions in Chinese societies.

Much of what passes for 'witchcraft' today was everyday knowledge to our forebears, especially those who lived and worked in the countryside. Here were to be found practical household hints, remedies and family recipes that had been handed down from generation to generation, some still existing in the form of treasured journals and notebooks. There is, however, nothing fanciful or far-fetched about this information - in fact, The Secret People is a remembrance of times past and a preservation of 'parish-pump witchcraft, wise-women and cunning ways' adapted for use in the 21st century.

It may also go a long way in helping those present-generation pagans in search of an identity and answer the questions: Who ...what am I? (hide)
