Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Rewards. Punishments. Prices. The Nobel Prize. Candy Crush. Incentives take more forms than you might expect and they can be hard to spot, but they shape our lives in ways that we rarely examine. Some incentives are obvious, like for example, publicly committing to doing something you dislike in order to motivate you to do something difficult, like lose weight. But, many of the most powerful incentives are accidental, and invisible even to those who designed them. Some are tame - and some are most definitely not. Whether it's bounties for criminals or Instagrammable meals, training your dog or saving the planet, incentives regularly backfire, go missing, mutate and evolve. Without oversight, their unintended consequences can have very global effects. In Incentivology, economist Jason Murphy uncovers the huge incentive systems we take for granted and turns them inside out. In lively, entertaining prose he explores the mechanisms behind many spectacular failures and successes in our history, culture and everyday lives, and shows us how to use (or lose) incentives in our world at large.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Compared with the controversies of contemporary cricket - riven as it is with match-fixing, gambling, cheating and national politics - most people think of the early days of Test cricket as a time of gentlemanly competition and camaraderie, with any disputes settled by Queensberry Rules over a glass of port. Not so. Cricket between the 1870s and 1914 was fraught with exactly the same bitter, vicious and greedy bad behaviour as the current game. It was cricket in the raw, explored in depth for the first time by the insightful eye of Malcolm Knox, with a genuine affection for the legends of the day - players like WG Grace, Fred Spofforth, Victor Trumper, Joe Darling, Monty Noble and Stanley Jackson.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Bradman and Wisden are two names synonymous with cricket. More than that, they have in their unique ways entered the English language as shorthand for statistical achievements, records and authority. However, Sir Donald Bradman's cricketing career was more about run-making and Wisden Cricketers' Almanack has always been more than a record book. Bradman in Wisden gives the scores of Sir Donald's 234 first-class games, his 52 Test Matches for Australia and minor matches played on four tours of England. But these give only part of his story. Essays and match reports in Wisden's idiosyncratic, time-encapsulating style, together with some impressive photography, bring to life his many triumphs as a cricketer, a captain and a great sportsman. All the feature articles about Bradman that have appeared in Wisden over the past eighty years are included, including his definitive obituary. Between them, they tell why, seven years after his death, he remains an Australian hero, a cricket icon and a sporting legend. The book also contains articles which Bradman himself wrote in Wisden. Published to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Bradman's birth, Bradman in Wisden - edited by Graeme Wright - is an updated and expanded version of Wisden on Bradman which was published in 1998. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A harrowing memoir from the father of a seven-year-old girl, January First is the desperate story of Michael's mission to find out what is wrong with his highly intelligent daughter. Right from when she was a newborn, January has kept her parents on their toes: as a baby she slept for only 20 minutes at a time, as a one year old she spoke in complete sentences, at two she asked about negative numbers, and by three had literally hundreds of imaginary friends. But when her brother Bodhi arrives her behaviour becomes increasingly violent, her never-ending delusions and hallucinations interspersed with paroxysms of rage that eventually force her parents to live in separate one-bedroom apartments - communicating with walkie-talkies to keep her brother safe. As her father does the rounds of child psychologists, doctors and locked hospital wards, he provides an unflinchingly honest account of parenting, as well as an indictment of the lack of care for children with severe mental illness. January First shows the passionate dedication of a father who refuses to give up on his little girl even as her behaviour becomes ever more alien. An eventual diagnosis is reached of one of the most severe cases of child-onset schizophrenia that doctors have ever seen: January is hallucinating 95 percent of the time that she is awake and potent psychiatric drugs that would level most adults barely faze her.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Pilotlight Australia and Hardie Grant Books are pleased to announce the launch of Dying to Know - bringing death to life in the United Kingdom on the 15th March 2010, in association with Dying Matters Week. The book was spear-headed by Jane Tewson whose 30 years in the charitable sector have been driven by a passion to create positive social change. Greater connection between people and for people when they need it most is behind all her initiatives, like Comic Relief which she co-founded in the 1980s. This time, with her team at Pilotlight Australia, Jane is using a graphic, provocative book, rather than a red nose, to start a conversation! Like so many others, the team at Pilotlight Australia has been challenged by death and what lies beyond it - they believe that renewing a conversation about dying can help build supportive communities and inspire change for the living. Traditionally people have always lived with death - an inseparable part of their lives. But for many people today, death has become a modern taboo. This little book seeks to break the silence around death and dying and stimulate a discussion that genuinely connects people on the most profound level, not as experts, but as people with the same dreams, hopes, fears and concerns. Dying to Know offers a series of thought buds that reflect on bringing death to life - practical information, quirky facts and humble suggestions that lift the lid on death - planning a personalised funeral; telling people you love them while they are alive rather than waiting to write a memorial notice; taking round a meal for a family overcome with loss; donating organs; creating online memorials; writing an emotional will in which you leave things of the heart rather than your material property; things to do before you die and a host of other topics. Each is presented in a double-page spread and each succeeds in empowering, inspiring and, at times, amusing the reader. The book is also designed as a resource that links the reader to a vast range of services and organisations - from support for people with cancer to statutory information about Wills. But Dying to Know is not a book with all the answers. Just ideas, insights, reflections and inspiring illustrations about a subject none of us can escape. Read it and then rush into the daylight to get on with the more challenging matter of living. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Many young Jewish families around the world still gather for a Shabbat meal every Friday night, and for Jewish holidays, yet don't always want to cook the same food their parents and grandparents did. They are more health conscious, and keen to try out dishes from different countries, regardless of their family's own heritage. In Feasting, author Amanda Ruben offers the modern home cook a range of familiar and exotic dishes. Recipes include Classic chicken soup; Roast cauliflower with dukkah, crushed hazelnuts and date yoghurt; Grilled figs with tomatoes, burrata and vincotto dressing and mouth-watering Challah bread and butter pudding. A chapter on Jewish holiday food includes traditional recipes, with a modern spin, to help you celebrate with friends and family. All the recipes are kosher, and these traditional elements are used to create dishes from all around the world, with results that are often lighter than traditional Jewish cooking. The book also includes dinner menus to suggest delicious kosher menus, for Passover and Jewish New Year, as well as all year round. If you're a home cook wanting to bring more variety to your family meals, Feasting is set to be your go-to cookbook. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
