New Releases by Tony Harris

Whether you have just been appointed captain of your sports team, the head of an organising committee or director of a work division, the mantle of leadership can feel heavy. Inevitably, this new position will bring responsibilities you''ve never experienced before. Fortunately, there are many brilliant books written about leadership. Less fortunately, you are unlikely to find the time with all your new responsibilities to read them all, or indeed, any of them. So, Tony Harris has brought over three decades of his experience to create a book of 101 observations each in a mere 101 words, designed to help, remind and encourage anybody who suddenly finds themselves in charge. Many have been there before you and doubted their own suitability but they made it and, with a little sound advice, so will you.

If your whole world was suddenly blown apart. Could you ever recover? This is exactly what happened to George Mitchell an investigative journalist. His life was turned upside down in March 2018. With threats to his life by a gang of ruthless criminals the police persuade him to enter a witness protection scheme. With a new name and identity he moves to Belford, a small Suffolk village he visited last year. There he befriends Brian an elderly villager, who teaches George how to understand and speak the Suffolk dialect. Brian has dark secrets of his own. One of these needs a special talent to overcome a particular problem. As it turns out unbeknown to George he has this talent. Can he work out how to help them both get exactly what they want in life and in death

This isn''t another book about advertising. It''s an inside look at how companies count on your obsession with food, alcohol, drugs and sex to drive behavior modification-permanently. It''s not enough to build a better Super Bowl commercial (sorry, but true); the new end game is about changing your entire mindset. Consultant to the brands that define our digital lifestyles, Tony Harris holds nothing back while explaining how FADS have become so relevant in a technology-enabled world. With straight-faced candor, he explains that humans are easily manipulated and marketers know it. That''s why the FADS that drive us wild say we''re fat, we''re no fun, we need to relax, and we''ll probably die alone. Anything to get you hooked on the next pea-protein, no whip, grown-in-the-lab latte. Spend 10 minutes with Tony Harris and you''ll walk away knowing ten things you didn''t know before you met him. By the time you finish FADS MARKETING, you''ll have new insights about: Food: What marketers know about food-related trigger points; the five senses and stuffing our faces; specialty foods for special consumers. Alcohol: Why booze and the law is a match made in hell; mainstream alcohol marketing featuring weirdos; everyone''s doing it (selling alcohol). Drugs: Marketers know we love a quick fix; yes, you are depressed; the Cannabis revolution. Sex: Marketers know everyone fears rejection; you''re gross, no sex for you; who needs ''live nude girls'' when you''ve got sex robots? Each chapter features expert interviews and wraps with Harris'' predictions for what''s coming next. Anyone who''s worked with him won''t be surprised to see that some of them are already happening. The only question left is, what book is coming next from Harris himself, and who''s the target?

Cornelius Cardew is an enigma. Depending on which sources one consults he is either an influential and iconic figure of British musical culture or a marginal curiosity, a footnote to a misguided musical phenomenon. He is both praised for his uncompromising commitment to world-changing politics, and mocked for being blindly caught up in a maelstrom of naïve political folly. His works are both widely lauded as landmark achievements of the British avant-garde and ridiculed as an archaic and irrelevant footnote to the established musical culture. Even the events of his death are shrouded in mystery and lack a sense of closure. As long ago as 1967, Morton Feldman cited Cardew as an influential figure, central to the future of modern music-making. The extent to which Cardew has been a central figure and a force for new ideas in music forms the backbone to this book. Harris demonstrates that Cardew was an original thinker, a charismatic leader, an able facilitator, and a committed activist. He argues that Cardew exerted considerable influence on numerous individuals and groups, but also demonstrates how the composer''s significance has been variously underestimated, undermined and misrepresented. Cardew''s diverse body of work and activity is here given coherence by its sharing in the values and principles that underpinned the composer''s world view. The apparently disparate and contradictory episodes of Cardew''s career are shown to be fused by a cohesive ''Cardew aesthetic'' that permeates the man, his politics and his music.

In the spring of 2003, a pride of lions escapes from the Baghdad Zoo during an American bombing raid. Lost and confused, hungry but finally free, the four lions roamed the decimated streets of Baghdad in a desperate struggle for their lives. In documenting the plight of the lions, PRIDE OF BAGHDAD raises questions about the true meaning of liberation-can it be given, or is it earned only through self-determination and sacrifice? And in the end, is it truly better to die free than to live in captivity?

Cell–cell adhesion is fundamental for the development and homeostasis of animal tissues and organs. Adherens junctions (AJs) are the best understood cell-cell adhesion complexes. In this volume, a group of internationally recognized experts reviews AJ biology over a wide range of organization; from atoms to molecules, to protein complexes, molecular networks, cells, tissues, and overall animal development. AJs have also been an integral part of animal evolution, and play central roles in cancer development, pathogen infection and other diseases. This book addresses major questions encompassing AJ biology. • How did AJs evolve? • How do cadherins and catenins interact to assemble AJs and mediate adhesion? • How do AJs interface with other cellular machinery to couple adhesion with the whole cell? • How do AJs affect cell behaviour and multicellular development? • How can abnormal AJ activity lead to disease?
