Why do some people accumulate wealth effortlessly while others struggle despite working harder? The answer lies in a specific mindset. This collection brings together the two foundational pillars of the prosperity movement: Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich and Wallace D. Wattles' The Science of Getting Rich. For the first time, explore the synergy between these two masters. While Hill spent twenty years distilling the psychological habits of millionaires into practical steps, Wattles offers a metaphysical formula for shifting from a competitive to a creative plane.

Charles Spinosa, Matthew Hancocks, and Haridimos Tsoukas tell us that today's business leaders are the misunderstood moral artists of our time. When these leaders follow their instincts, they create morally distinctive organizations that shift moral orders in their industries and communities. Anita Roddick did that with The Body Shop where she created an organization devoted to fun, compassion, and drawing on women's traditional care for their bodies.

Every decision you have ever made has been contaminated. Not by ignorance, not by carelessness, but by the very biology that makes you alive. The hormones circulating in your blood, the emotional systems firing beneath your awareness, the ancient programs optimized for survival and reproduction on an ancestral savanna that vanished millennia ago — all of these operate continuously, silently shaping every judgment you make. The most educated judge, the most experienced general, the most brilliant analyst — all are subject to the same invisible contamination at the moment of decision.

What was a Buddhist monk doing at the 2014 World Economic Forum in Davos lecturing the world's leaders on mindfulness? Why do many successful corporations have a chief happiness officer? What can the chemical composition of your brain tell a potential employer about you? In the past decade, governments and corporations have become increasingly interested in measuring the way people feel: the Happiness index, Gross National Happiness, well-being and positive psychology have come to dominate the way we live our lives.

Michael Foley wants to understand why he doesn't appear to be experiencing as much fun as everyone else. So, with characteristic wit and humour, he sets out to understand what fun really means, examining its heritage, its cultural significance and the various activities we associate with fun. He investigates pursuits such as dancing, sex, holidays, sport, gaming and comedy and concludes that fun is not easy, simple and fixed, as many seem to believe, but elusive, complex and constantly changing.

Contemporary views of business ethics often show businessmen and women in a bad light. Egoism, profits, and competition are branded as immoral, while social consciousness is praised. Atlas Society Senior Scholar Stephen Hicks, PhD, disagrees with this point of view. Most contemporary business ethics does business a disservice. Worse than that, its proposed cures are plagued with unintended consequences that are often much worse than the problems it is attempting to solve. Hicks defends the egoism that drives successful business people and the morality of free-market capitalism.

Why do the most successful companies so often become the most spectacular failures? Why did Kodak, which invented digital photography, go bankrupt? Why did Nokia, which dominated mobile phones, become irrelevant? Why did Blockbuster, which could have bought Netflix, collapse instead? The answer lies in a paradox at the heart of organizational life: what builds systems up also locks them in. The rules that ensure quality become barriers to innovation. The processes that guarantee efficiency become obstacles to flexibility. Success plants the seeds of failure.

Entrepreneurs, businessmen, and investors are constantly looking for principles and rules that will pave the way for success. Usually, those at the forefront are successful entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley or legendary Wall Street investors. But the principles of economic growth, wealth creation, and preservation were written long before the rise of the modern market economy and its heroes.

Something is changing in the way we talk to each other and most of us have not noticed yet. Millions of people now spend hours each day in conversation with AI systems. They draft emails with AI assistance, test arguments against AI partners, and develop ideas in dialogues of a depth and patience that ordinary human exchange rarely permits. Then they close their laptops and return to the world of interrupted thoughts, half-finished sentences, and conversations that go nowhere. And they notice the difference.
