The world's greatest bodybuilder. The world's highest-paid movie star. The leader of the world's sixth-largest economy.

Success is the result of clear vision, hard work, curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. For Arnold, all of it is guided by the one lesson his father hammered into him above all : be useful. Distilling his hard-earned wisdom into seven essential rules for realising your true purpose, Be Useful is an indispensable guide to building the life you want, from a master of ceaseless reinvention.

A personal hero of mine... she's an important warning for the rest of us' 'Maria Ressa is five feet two inches, but she stands taller than most in her pursuit of the truth' How to Stand up to a Dictator maps a network of disinformation that spans the globe and affects what you click on, how you think, and how you vote - from Britain's Brexit to Russia's invasion of Ukraine ; from Chinese cyber-warfare to America's Capitol Hill and Silicon Valley. Told from the frontline of the digital war, this is Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa's urgent cry for all of us to wake up and hold the line, and to fight for our collective future before it is too late.

Beyond the main street of Les Laveuses runs the Loire, smooth and brown as a sunning snake - but hiding a deadly undertow beneath its moving surface. This is where Framboise, a secretive widow named after a raspberry liqueur, plies her culinary trade at the crêperie - and lets her memory play strange games. Into this world comes the threat of revelation as Framboise's nephew - a profiteering Parisian - attempts to exploit the growing success of the country recipes she has inherited from her mother, a woman remembered with contempt by the villagers of Les Laveuses. As the spilt blood of a tragic wartime childhood flows again, exposure beckons for Framboise, the widow with an invented past.
