John and Paul were more than friends, collaborators or rivals in the sense we normally understand those terms. They were both exceptionally intense young men who had the fabric of their world ruptured at a young age. There have been millions of words written about The Beatles, but this is the first book to focus on what lay at the heart of this phenomenon: the alchemy of two young men. Ian Leslie explores this volatile, madly creative quasi-marriage and misunderstood story. The result is a wildly enjoyable biography, told through the songs, which will make us see and hear John and Paul afresh.

Simon Sinek's iconic global bestseller has sold more than three million copies by asking a simple fundamental question: Why are some people and organisations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? The answer to why is another why. Leaders like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with a WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into an idea, a movement, a product or a service until they understand the WHY behind it.

That isn't a personal failure. That's a design problem. Small things, done daily, compound. Large things, done occasionally, don't. The interior life that actually holds up over years isn't built from forty-five-minute meditations or weekend retreats. It's built from five-minute practices done so consistently they stop requiring a decision.
