Gillian Rose was a star academic, acclaimed as one of the most dazzling and original thinkers of her time. Told that she had incurable cancer, she found a new way to explore the world and herself. Tender, heartbreakingly honest, written with moments of surprising humour and often exhilarating, Love's Work is the result.In this short, unforgettable memoir, Rose looks back on her childhood, from the young dyslexic girl, torn between father and stepfather, to the adolescent confronting her Jewish inheritance. As an adult, Gillian Rose proves herself a passionate friend, a searcher for truth, a woman in love and, finally, an exacting but generous patient.Intertwining the personal and the philosophical, Rose meditates on faith, conflict and injustice; the fallibility and endurance of love; our yearning for independence and for connection to others. With droll self-knowledge ('I am highly qualified in unhappy love affairs,' Rose writes) and with unsettling wisdom ('To live, to love, is to be failed'), Love's Work asks the unanswerable question: how is a life best lived?

Being yourself has never been so lucrative.The working world has changed. In an era where the cost of living is rising, it's no longer good enough to have a university degree, a cushy corporate job and a strong work ethic - these once-guaranteed routes to success are leaving employees on the wrong side of the poverty line.

So how do you do it? The answer - according to world-renowned strategy consultant Dorie Clark - is to be yourself, entirely and unapologetically.You might not know what your breakthrough idea is. You might know, but have no idea how to implement it. You might think you have an idea, but you don't trust yourself enough to pursue it. Regardless of what's holding you back, this book will teach you how to burst through that barrier and establish yourself as an individual thought leader - and it's as simple as being true to who you are. Drawing on interviews from some of the most influential thought leaders in the world, including Seth Godin, Daniel Pink and David Allen, Clark shows you how to break through the clamour of everyday life, understand yourself and your worth, and ultimately inspire others to embrace your vision. Unapologetically You is a manifesto for individuality. Whoever you are, whatever your perspective - your ideas matter. The world won't wait for you. It needs your insights, and now is the time to be bold, daring and unapologetic.
