"An ebullient examination of madness, mortality, suicide... Montero finds that deviance is often just a more truthful account of normal human behavior." Chris KrausA dazzling journey into the eccentric, troubled, and luminous minds that shaped literature.In this bold, personal, and deeply researched blend of memoir, essay, literary analysis, psychological reflection, and intellectual sleuth story, Montero draws on psychology, neuroscience, creative literature, and the testimonies and biographies of authors and artists to weave a fascinating narrative on the connection between creativity and mental instability.With intelligence, generosity, and narrative elan, Montero brings to life figures such as Franz Kafka, Virginia Woolf, Emily Dickinson, Sylvia Plath, Marcel Proust, Joseph Conrad, and Doris Lessing, painting a fresco of the ways in which the brain works, its quirks and dark corners. She breaks down the forces that influence creativity and miraculously reassembles them before the readers eyes over three hundred gripping pages.Like a masterfully plotted detective story, each clue leads readers one step closer to new definitions of both the creative act and of what is and is not "normal." Blending intimate memoir with wide-ranging cultural history, The Danger to Be Sane is a moving and inspirational homage to minds and lives that are outside of the mean.Twas a Divine Insanity TheDangerto be Sane From Emily Dickinson, Poem 593

Fraud is big business: not only is it one of the easiest crimes to commit, but its also one with the most lenient punishments. So how can we put a stop to it, how can we protect ourselves, and what new dangers do we need to be looking out for?Deeply researched and filled with expert testimony, The Future of Fraud explores interesting fraud cases past and present, from the first officially recorded case of a Greek sea merchant attempting to commit insurance fraud in 300 BC, to todays sophisticated technology perfectly poised to exploit via social media, the dark web, gaming, cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence.The only way to tackle the fraud epidemic, argues Holmes, is head on, via education, language, technology and regulation. We need everyone to understand the dangers and have protections in place to stop the bad guys. Are we fighting a losing battle, or can we make the future a safer place for all?

What is a human being? Where does neurosis begin? Is sexual desire truly the engine of thought? Can fear, trauma and depression ever be cured? And what, by the way, is the meaning of life? In this vivid and gripping account, psychologist Steve Ayan takes us back to fin-de-siecle Vienna, where a bold new idea was born: that psychotherapy could heal the mind. This is the enthralling story of how Freud, Jung, Adler, and their contemporaries revolutionised the way we understand ourselves - giving rise to psychotherapy, a field that would forever reshape Western culture. With captivating storytelling and deep insight, Ayan unpacks the dreams, rivalries, and obsessions of these early visionaries. More than simply a historical account, this book explores the lasting legacy of their work, revealing how the promise of personal transformation became a modern fixture of society - and how the questions they raised still echo in our lives today.

In August 1939, a ship flying the Polish flag docked in Buenos Aires. On board was a delegation of businessmen, diplomats and journalists. Days later, the captain received orders to return home with all crew and passengers in light of the imminent outbreak of the Second World War. But one man, fascinated by the city, chose to stay at the very last minute. Thus began the unexpected twenty-four-year Argentine exile of one of the twentieth centurys major writers: Witold Gombrowicz. Drawing on his writings and interviews with surviving disciples, writers and scholars, Mercedes Halfons Outsider Everywhere traces Gombrowiczs Argentine years in elegant, pared-back prose, and composes a vivid account of mid-century bohemia in Buenos Aires. Brilliantly translated by Rahul Bery, Mercedes Halfons Outsider Everywhere is a gripping portrait of a literary figure on the margins who rose to prominence late in life to become one of the greatest novelists of our century (Milan Kundera).
