NATIONAL BESTSELLER WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER TORONTO STAR BESTSELLER Based on his TEDx talk "Everyday Leadership (the Lollipop Moment)"--voted one of the 15 most inspirational TED talks of all time--This Is Day One is leadership expert Drew Dudley's guide to cultivating the behaviors that will help you to succeed and empower those around you. If you're intimidated by the mystique surrounding leadership, this book is for you. Dudley simplifies leadership without denying its complexity, demonstrating that leadership in all its forms begins at the same clear and accessible place for everyone: what he calls "Day One." Day One is when you discover, define, and start to consistently deliver on your foundational leadership values. Living that day over and over is what creates leaders, and Dudley provides the key tools necessary to craft and commit to your own personal Day One, including: A step-by-step process designed to surface your core leadership values and embed them into your daily behavior A roadmap to behavioral changes proven to increase commitment, pride, productivity, and happiness Insights into key leadership values that drive performance and impact Sharing the process that led him through battles with alcohol, obesity, and personal tragedy, Dudley shows you how to develop a relentless commitment to the daily behaviors that will make you a better executive, coach, or teacher, and how you can inspire others to do the same. Most of the leadership on the planet comes from people who don't see themselves as leaders. This Is Day One shows you how to start changing that. Through the insights of leaders of all types--CEOs, elite athletes, cab drivers, custodians, and everyone in between--Dudley helps you understand what your Day One needs to look like, reminds you why you're a leader, and makes clear what you can do about it--starting today, on Day One.

"A gripping examination of a community devastated by a school shooting and the “truthers” who deny it ever happened. Within that story is a girl who’s hiding what she knows about what happened that day. A chilling, thought-provoking read. Brilliant.” —Shari Lapena, New York Times bestselling author of Everyone Here is Lying and The Couple Next Door A village hall, a primary school play, a beautiful Lake District town in England. Into this idyllic scene steps a lone gunman whose actions set off a train of events that will have devastating consequences for the close-knit community of Stonesmere. In the weeks following the cataclysm, conspiracy theorists start questioning what happened. Two young people find themselves at the epicenter of the uproar: Marty, the town’s golden girl and daughter of a teacher killed that day, and Trent, whose memories of his brief time trying to fit into Stonesmere fuel his attachment to the conspiracies. But what really happened at the Day One assembly? What secrets is Marty keeping and what blindspots does Trent miss? In this world where news travels fast, and videos and gossip travel faster, how does a community move forward together? Opening with a gripping moment of terror, and then jumping forward in time to show how secrets, trauma, miscommunications, and unrequited feelings reverberate over a lifetime, Abigail Dean once again delivers, "a riveting page-turner, full of hope in the face of despair." (Sophie Hannah, The Guardian).

From the author of Bay of Pigs and Betrayal and Survival in Hitler’s Germany comes a full scope look at the bombing of Hiroshima, from the race to create the bomb to its detrimental dropping on Japan and the terrifying consequences that are still affecting the world over seventy years later. Hiroshima was an event of such magnitude that it divided history into two periods: before and after the bomb. It led to the first day of a new age in which all life would be at risk. Almost seventy years later, as Peter Wyden began this book, the world was still dealing with the fallout of the bomb’s creation. Wyden draws on eyewitness accounts, interviews, and documents never before published in order to trace the nuclear state of the modern world to the historical roots of Hiroshima. Skillfully weaving together all the strands, stories, and characters, including the scientific, political, moral, military, and human viewpoints, Wyden provides a full understanding of how the bomb was created, why it was used, and what the aftermath of those decisions has been.

Free Territories, 2083: John Howe, an enhanced cyber operations soldier with an embedded AI named Cam, fought his way home after Day One to find everything changed.

Then he finds himself stuck with Sierra and Quinn, the twin thirteen-year-old orphans he'd saved from the jipper couple hired to kidnap them. Now he's a man who is just trying to off-load the highly coveted twins before they get him killed, or worse, he ends up liking them. As fate would have it, a super-soldier and two kids whose combined abilities could save the country-and maybe Earth-are going to be hard to separate.
