No Filter : The Inside Story of Instagram – Winner of the FT Business Book of the Year Award
0190.00 DHSHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 FT & MCKINSEY BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR
‘Deeply researched and highly entertaining.’ The Times
‘Vivid reporting and electric story-telling.’ Ashlee Vance, author of Elon Musk
‘Clear-eyed and objective.’ New York TimesThe extraordinary inside story of how Instagram became the world’s most successful app
In just ten years, Instagram has gone from being a simple photo app to a $100-billion company. The journey has involved ground-breaking innovations, a billion-dollar takeover, and clashes between some of the biggest names in tech. But it’s a story that has never been told – until now.
In No Filter, Bloomberg’s Sarah Frier reveals how Instagram became the hottest app in a generation, reshaping our culture and economy in the process. With astonishing access to all the key players – from Instagram’s co-founders to super-influencers like Kris Jenner – Frier offers behind-the-scenes glimpses of every moment in the company’s life: from its launch, to its unlikely acquisition by Facebook, to its founders’ dramatic disputes with their new boss, Mark Zuckerberg.
But this is not just a Silicon Valley story. No Filter explores how Instagram has reshaped global business, creating a new economy of ‘influencers’ and pioneering a business model that sells an aspirational lifestyle to all of us. And it delves into Instagram’s effects on popular culture, rewiring our understanding of celebrity and placing mounting pressure on all of us to perform online – to the point of warping our perception of reality.
The resulting book connects one company’s rise to a global revolution in technology, culture and business. Facebook’s decision to buy Instagram was the best investment it ever made. But we’re still learning about what it has cost the rest of us.

How to Win Friends and Influence People in the Digital Age
0169.00 DHSince its initial publication, How to Win Friends and Influence People has sold a total of 15 million copies. The book continues to sell briskly today, but Carnegie never anticipated the ways in which the digital age would provide new tools and challenges for winning friends and influencing people. The advent of social networking sites, the dominance of email, and the ways in which the Internet has supplanted face-to-face interactions have made Carnegie’s precepts all the more immediate and vital. Brent Cole, working in tandem with Dale Carnegie & Associates, Inc., has reimagined the original book for the digital age, updating and reframing Carnegie’s insights about communication, self expression, and leadership.

The Island of Missing Trees : Shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction 2022
0180.00 DHSHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN’S PRIZE 2022
A REESE WITHERSPOON BOOK CLUB PICK
SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA NOVEL AWARD 2021A rich, magical new novel from the Booker-shortlisted author of 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in this Strange World – now a top 10 Sunday Times bestseller
Two teenagers, a Greek Cypriot and a Turkish Cypriot, meet at a taverna on the island they both call home. The taverna is the only place that Kostas and Defne can meet in secret, hidden beneath the blackened beams from which hang garlands of garlic and chilli peppers, creeping honeysuckle, and in the centre, growing through a cavity in the roof, a fig tree. The fig tree witnesses their hushed, happy meetings; their silent, surreptitious departures. The fig tree is there, too, when war breaks out, when the capital is reduced to ashes and rubble, when the teenagers vanish. Decades later, Kostas returns – a botanist, looking for native species – looking, really, for Defne. The two lovers return to the taverna to take a clipping from the fig tree and smuggle it into their suitcase, bound for London. Years later, the fig tree in the garden is their daughter Ada’s only knowledge of a home she has never visited, as she seeks to untangle years of secrets and silence, and find her place in the world.
The Island of Missing Trees is a rich, magical tale of belonging and identity, love and trauma, nature and renewal, from the Booker-shortlisted author of 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in this Strange World.

Brèves réponses aux grandes questions
0285.00 DHDieu existe-t-il ? Comment l’Univers a-t-il commencé ? Y a-t-il de la vie intelligente ailleurs ? Peut-on prévoir l’avenir ? Qu’y a-t-il à l’intérieur d’un trou noir ? Peut-on voyager dans le temps ? L’espèce humaine pourra-t-elle survivre sur la Terre ? Faut-il coloniser l’espace ? Serons-nous dépassés par l’intelligence artificielle ? Que nous réserve l’avenir ?
Telles sont quelques-unes des grandes questions que Stephen Hawking éclaire dans ce livre auquel il a travaillé jusqu’à sa mort.
Tout au long de son exceptionnelle carrière, Stephen Hawking a approfondi notre connaissance de l’Univers et dévoilé quelques-uns de ses plus grands mystères. Mais, alors même que ses travaux sur les trous noirs, la gravité quantique, les temps imaginaires lui faisaient explorer les confins de l’Univers, il a toujours pensé que la science permettrait de résoudre les problèmes de la planète.
Passionnant, ambitieux, ô combien intellectuellement stimulant et plein d’humour, le dernier livre de Stephen Hawking, l’un des plus grands esprits de notre temps, nous invite à nous confronter à notre humaine condition et au destin de notre planète.

Tools of Titans : The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers
0180.00 DH#1 New York Times Bestseller
The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek.
From the author: “For the last two years, I’ve interviewed nearly two hundred world-class performers for my podcast,The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview, and the show is on the cusp of passing 100 million downloads.
“This book contains the distilled tools, tactics, and ‘inside baseball’ you won’t find anywhere else. It also includes new tips from past guests, and life lessons from new ‘guests’ you haven’t met.
“What makes the show different is a relentless focus on actionable details. This is reflected in the questions. For example: What do these people do in the first sixty minutes of each morning? What do their workout routines look like, and why? What books have they gifted most to other people? What are the biggest wastes of time for novices in their field? What supplements do they take on a daily basis?
“I don’t view myself as an interviewer. I view myself as an experimenter. If I can’t test something and replicate results in the messy reality of everyday life, I’m not interested.
“Everything within these pages has been vetted, explored, and applied to my own life in some fashion. I’ve used dozens of the tactics and philosophies in high-stakes negotiations, high-risk environments, or large business dealings. The lessons have made me millions of dollars and saved me years of wasted effort and frustration.
“I created this book, my ultimate notebook of high-leverage tools, for myself. It’s changed my life, and I hope the same for you.”

Ikigai : Giving every day meaning and joy
0130.00 DHIkigai is a traditional Japanese concept that embodies happiness in living. It is, essentially, the reason that you get up in the morning. This book is about finding your ikigai – identifying your purpose or passion and using this knowledge to achieve greater happiness in your life. Your ikigai doesn’t have to be some grand ambition or highly noble life’s purpose – it can be something simple and humble, like tending your garden or walking your dog.
Having grown up in Japan, Yukari Mitsuhashi understands first hand what ikigai means to Japanese people. Now living in Los Angeles, she has written this book to introduce the traditional concept to a new audience. This is not a ‘one size fits all’ book. Instead, Ikigai encourages you to look at the details of your life and appreciate the everyday moments as you learn to identify your own personal ikigai. The book includes case studies from a range of people sharing their ikigai, from athletes to writers and business people.
With its refreshingly simple philosophy and liberating concepts, this beautifully presented book will be a guide you will return to again and again.
