Bestselling author Herminia Ibarra presents a model for career reinvention that flies in the face of everything we've learned from "career experts"—and is tailor-made for changing careers in today's uncertain world. Career transition is not a linear path toward some predetermined identity, according to Ibarra, but a crooked journey along which we try on a host of "possible selves" we might become. Successful reinvention comes not from deciphering and analyzing our past, but from inventing and testing our possible futures.

What image do you convey? What image do you want to convey? Are you influencing or being influenced? We are constantly shaped by people, places, and platforms telling us who we should be. Even influencers are influenced. At any moment, we are influenced by either God, the Father of Jesus Christ, or satan, the ruler of this world. God created us in His image and wants to shape our identity through His Word. His story defines who we are — not the world's. When we truly understand God and His Word, our belief system becomes unshakable, rooted in His truth. Listen to Him.

Every click, search, swipe, and movement through digital space leaves behind a trace. Invisible to most users yet meticulously recorded by platforms, brokers, and algorithms, these traces accumulate into what can be understood as a hidden account — an unseen system where personal information is continuously extracted, analyzed, traded, and monetised. The Invisible Ledger explores this silent economy and its profound implications for privacy, autonomy, and human identity. This audiobook examines how modern technology has transformed everyday behavior into a valuable commercial asset.

In 2014, Francis Fukuyama wrote that American institutions were in decay, as the state was progressively captured by powerful interest groups. Two years later, his predictions were borne out by the rise to power of a series of political outsiders whose economic nationalism and authoritarian tendencies threatened to destabilize the entire international order. These populist nationalists seek direct charismatic connection to “the people”, who are usually defined in narrow identity terms that offer an irresistible call to an in-group and exclude large parts of the population as a whole.

The universe tends toward chaos. Things fall apart, structures dissolve, energy disperses. And yet some systems persist—cells, minds, institutions, civilizations—for millions and even billions of years. How? In The Physics of Identity, Boris Kriger reveals that the answer lies not in any mysterious life force but in two structural necessities that every persistent system must satisfy: it must conserve what defines it, and it must be able to transform its own structures when the world demands it.

Over the past decades, a healthy appreciation for the culture and heritage of minorities has transformed into an obsession with group identity in all its forms. A new ideology - which Yascha Mounk terms the 'identity synthesis' - seeks to put each citizen's matrix of identities at the heart of social, cultural and political life. This, he argues, is The Identity Trap. Mounk traces the intellectual origin of these ideas. He tells the story of how they were able to win tremendous power over the past decade.

This classic work by psychologist and social philosopher Eric Fromm builds upon his previous popular book To Have or to Be? The Art of Being teaches us to avoid the tantalizing illusions of our consumer-driven world by learning to function as a whole person from a state of inner completeness or being. The transition from an identity of having to being creates a state of enlightened psychological and spiritual happiness.

What defines an American? Is it the love of liberty, the pursuit of justice, the urge to invent, the desire for wealth, the drive to explore, the quest for spiritual values? The paradox of American identity is that although the United States is a melting pot of many different traditions, motives, and ideals, there are nevertheless distinctive qualities that define the American character.

I’ve been daydreaming about Eliot Hoffman’s dimples for two months, and even though I’m sure this was a mistake on his end, it doesn’t mean it’s not an opportunity on mine. It’s the middle of the night, and I just wanna talk to him. So I text him back.

In his powerful and fortifying book, he answers these and other questions.

In this sweeping philosophical work, Amartya Sen proposes that the murderous violence that has riven our society is driven as much by confusion as by inescapable hatred.
