How To Be Right
The voice of reason in a world that won’t shut up. The Sunday Times Bestseller Winner of the Parliamentary Book Awards Every day, James O’Brien listens to people blaming hard-working immigrants for stealing their jobs while scrounging benefits, and pointing their fingers at the EU and feminists for destroying Britain. But what makes James’s daily LBC show such essential listening – and has made James a standout social media star – is the incisive way he punctures their assumptions and dismantles their arguments live on air, every single morning. In the bestselling How To Be Right, James provides a hilarious and invigorating guide to talking to people with unchallenged opinions. With chapters on every lightning-rod issue, James shows how people have been fooled into thinking the way they do, and in each case outlines the key questions to ask to reveal fallacies, inconsistencies and double standards. If you ever get cornered by ardent Brexiteers, Daily Mail disciples or corporate cronies, this book is your conversation survival guide.
How To Be Insightful
How do we advance? As individuals, families, and businesses? As societies, nations, and a species? In a world where it’s said there is nothing new under the sun, we humans are remarkably resourceful at creating new things. The key to innovation is understanding, but not just by using facts, data, and casual observations. Progress demands the profound and useful understanding of a person or a thing, a situation or an issue. And profound and useful understanding that truly effects change is that most elusive of phenomena: insight. How To Be Insightful provides a novel and deeply practical framework that anyone can use to generate more powerful and impactful insights from the increasing volumes of data we all face every day, whatever we do. The framework – the STEP Prism of Insight – has been developed through decades of both practice and training, and the book includes many exercises designed to help strengthen and develop readers’ insight muscles. The book explains the history, psychology, and neuroscience of insight and includes snapshots of insight from international experts in many different fields – psychology and neuroscience, music and acting, forensic science and market research.
Random Notes From A World Gone Wrong
"The idea for the book came initially from my research notes/ internal blog ... [which] deals mainly with the changing nature of investment strategy of major global funds, the aftermath of the global financial crisis, the impact of Brexit, the global position of London, the increasingly political nature of global capital flows into the sector and the industry's default position which is one of delusion and a hope against hope for soft landings... These issues are set against a background of just how the real estate capital market has evolved ... from a local and rather dozy industry to one of increasing sophistication. However, the underlying argument is that this apparent shift is superficial despite the hope that, somehow, bankers have learnt from the lessons of the past, that rating agencies and regulators do more than tick boxes, or investors cease their natural tendency to stray from the world they know best."
