Resistance: A Songwriter's Story of Hope, Change, and Courage
Book Review by Roy Normington

Finding Clarity in a Complex World
By Julia Hobsbawm

This means letting go of old ideas about productivity being about clocking on and off, and more about creativity and the ability to be curious. It’s about how we rest and reset, and it is about how we learn and understand our limits.
