"Breakthrough is a toolkit for turning hopelessness into success, sadness into deep joy and stigmatisation into fuel for positively transforming others' lives. Please, please, please read this inspirational book--it will change your life."--Professor Ged Byrne, MBE, Consultant Surgeon and Director of Global Health at NHS England "Ahmed Hankir has given us a gift--a true Breakthrough. This timely book reminds us that mental health 'flaws' can be tools: that vulnerability and shared humanity can be deployed to heal our fellow wounded travelers."--Andrés Martin, MD, PhD, Professor, Yale Child Study Center and Medical Director, Children's Psychiatric Inpatient Service at Yale-New Haven Children's Hospital, Connecticut USA There is no health without mental health. We all know that people with mental illness deserve relief from their suffering, but why do so many of us remain reluctant to seek treatment and help? Defeat the stigma. You deserve to be healthy. In Breakthrough, World Health Organization Award-Winning psychiatrist, former psychiatric patient and mental health advocate Dr Ahmed Hankir delivers a unique and powerful insight into mental health and wellness, mental illness, mental health treatment, and the culture surrounding mental health by tracing his own personal recovery journey from impoverished and shunned psychiatric patient, to becoming an NHS Consultant Psychiatrist. The book explores many of the issues currently dominating the discussion of mental health and illness, including the impacts of poverty, unemployment, homelessness, the use of medication to treat mental illness, the widespread prevalence of stigma, discrimination and racism in mental health and much more. Breakthrough is a resource of hope and a companion for people suffering in silence who feel isolated and disconnected from society. The take home messages are clear: living with a mental health condition is nothing to be ashamed about and, with the right support, recovery is a reality for the many and not the few.

Some luck is needed with any type of investing, but investors who are successful in the long-term do not rely on it. Instead, consistently successful traders effectively utilize the tools, instruments, and information at their disposal and learn how to adapt to the dynamic conditions of the market. Options are precisely customizable financial assets that have the capacity to generate profits in any type of market environment. For more risk-tolerant traders, they can be used to build reliable investment strategies, tailored according to one's personal profit goals and risk preferences. Investors often fall into the trap of focusing on the potential rewards of options without properly assessing the associated risks or building strategies that are not backed by statistics. The Unlucky Investor's Guide to Options Trading elucidates these pitfalls and teaches new investors all about the basics of options and how to develop sustainable, actionable options strategies consistent with one's personal investing objectives. "Options trading and cards for money aren't for fools hoping for luck. This is a serious but easy to read introduction for those ready to try constructing options trades."--Aaron Brown, Author of The Poker Face of Wall Street and Red-Blooded Risk "Captivating -- that usually describes a spy thriller, but it applies well to this options trading book... If you think you know everything about options already, this book will surprise you."--Ernest P. Chan, Author of Quantitative Trading: How to Build Your Own Algorithmic Trading Business

The bestselling annual baseball preview from the smartest analysts in the business Now in its 20th edition, the Baseball Prospectus annual shows once again how it became the industry leader: The 2015 edition includes key stat categories, more controversial player predictions, and the kind of wise, witty baseball commentary that makes this phone-book-thick tome worth reading cover to cover. Baseball Prospectus 2015 provides fantasy players and insiders alike with prescient PECOTA projections, which Sports Illustrated has called ""perhaps the game's most accurate projection model."" Still, stats are just numbers if you don't see the larger context, and Baseball Prospectus brings together an elite team of analysts to provide the definitive look at all thirty teams?their players, their prospects, and their managers?to explain away flukes, hot streaks, injury-tainted numbers, and park effects.

Why do people overshare online?Why does a fish bite anotherfish only if no one else is watching?Why do some people meet trivialinsults with extreme violence?Why do so many godshave multiple eyes?In People Will Talk, science writer John Whitfield shows how the idea of reputation helps answer all of these questions and more. Almost from the moment we are born, we are trying to work out whom we can trust and trying to make others think the best of us. We carry on doing so throughout life, even when we don't realize it, every time we meet another person in business, friendship, or romance; every time we read celebrity gossip; and every time we tweak our Facebook profiles. Reputation has left its mark on our bodies, brains, and even, you might say, souls. Whether you're buying a car or selling one, looking for a job or hiring, asking someone out on a date or deciding whether to accept the invitation, reputation matters.What is the secret to getting a good reputation? Unfortunately, there's more to reputation than being a good person or being good at what you do. Your reputation belongs to other people, and it's created by what they say about you behind your back. So you have a good reputation only if you have a strong social network--a large and close-knit network of friends, family, and allies--to spread good news about you and shout down ugly rumors. Besides being a crucial component of individual success, whether a society flourishes or rots depends on how it uses reputation. Whether they're in Machiavelli's Italy, a California college sorority, New York's drug culture, or the online world of The Sims, people's concerns for their reputation can either push them toward altruism and cooperation or make them turn to deceit and brutality. If you've ever wondered why we care about the lives of celebrities, why young men publicize their drunken or dangerous antics on the Internet, how to make the "honor system" a little more widely honored, how to keep politicians honest, or what keeps gossip going, reputation will give you a clue. Read People Will Talk and discover how to polish your own reputation and understand what you hear about others and make the most of both.
