  “[John Naisbitt’s] vision of the world’s economy has the mark of genius.” —Minneapolis Star TribuneInternationally-renowned futurist and bestselling author John Naisbitt is back with China’s Megatrends, the most comprehensive look at the present and future of China and the transformation that is reshaping its economic, political, and social systems. Since publishing the enormously popular Megatrends—a New York Times bestseller for two years that has been published in 57 countries—John Naisbitt has become the most respected and well-known prognosticator of global trends. To write China’s Megatrends, Naisbitt and wife Doris were granted unprecedented access by the Chinese government to all aspects of the country and its social model. Using the same techniques of information gathering and analysis as Megatrends, the Naisbitts present a prescient and unique perspective on the emergent global power and its role in the future of globalization.

  What’s Wrong with My Child? reveals a mother’s quest for answers about her son’s psych symptoms that leads to shocking discoveries that could impact struggling families in the United States and possibly globally. Elizabeth Harris’ son Cody was eleven when, out of the blue, he started exhibiting signs of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The OCD turned into something far more sinister when Cody started having episodes where he seemed to lose total control over his actions, leading to Cody being committed to a county youth detention center. There, he was placed in solitary confinement for weeks. For five years, Elizabeth fought a hard battle to find out what was going on with her son and their family while simultaneously battling an unsympathetic judicial system.  Driven to find a cure, Elizabeth visited countless doctors across the USA. She quickly became frustrated by the fact that there was no agreement in the medical community regarding PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Strep), the disease behind Cody’s transformation. In her quest for answers, this science-minded spa owner found proof of weaponized bacteria not only impacting their extended family, but that could be making families around the USA and possibly globally sick as well.

  Leadership is a very different skill from day-to-day management. This is because leadership is focused on the business, whereas management is devoted to solving problems that arise in the business. That may seem to suggest that leadership is the easier of the two paths, but the truth is that leadership is far harder for many people, because it is less tactical. Not all sales managers are sales leaders, but sales managers can learn to be sales leaders. 
   
   
   
   
  Scaling Sales Success outlines sixteen proven "rules of the road" for those leaders who are ready to make the journey necessary to transform a team of disengaged or marginally engaged salespeople into a cohesive, committed team capable of generating scalable revenue growth. And in order to scale the success of your team in a way that supports ongoing, aggressive growth, leadership is a non-negotiable requirement.

  White Blood - A History of Human...

  White Blood is a history of human milk and tells the story of how babies have been fed from antiquity to modern times and why it matters. 'Breast is Best' is the popular mantra, but there is a perennial debate about the pros and cons of 'breast and bottle'. White Blood explores this vital question, which has implications for the health and wellbeing of mothers, their young, families, communities and even countries. Starting in Ancient Greece and Rome, where human milk was thought to be blood diverted from the womb to the breast and there whitened and vivified, it lets the voices of those concerned with the care of newborn infants, and those who followed them, speak across the centuries of how they were, and should best be, nourished.

  Genesis - The Deep Origin of...

  Asserting that religious creeds and philosophical questions can be reduced to purely genetic and evolutionary components, and that the human body and mind have a physical base obedient to the laws of physics and chemistry, Genesis demonstrates that the only way for us to fully understand human behavior is to study the evolutionary histories of nonhuman species. Of these, Wilson demonstrates that at least seventeen?among them the African naked mole rat and the sponge- dwelling shrimp?have been found to have advanced societies based on altruism and cooperation. Whether writing about midges who "dance about like acrobats" or schools of anchovies who protectively huddle "to appear like a gigantic fish," or proposing that human society owes a debt of gratitude to "postmenopausal grandmothers" and "childless homosexuals," Genesis is a pithy yet path-breaking work of evolutionary theory, braiding twenty-first-century scientific theory with the lyrical biological and humanistic observations for which Wilson is known.
