Money. It’s as fundamental to our lives as air, water, fire and earth. It is the fifth element, without which humankind would struggle to survive.Now, global economist David McWilliams has written a brilliantly original book exploring our relationship with money and how it sustains the existence of civilisation as we know it. In Money , McWilliams aims to do for cash what David Attenborough did for the to unlock its mysteries, its limitations and its awesome power. We journey all across the world, through the present and the past, to survey the ever-evolving dynamics of money in a way that has never been seen before. We’ll go from the birthplace of money in the Middle East to where trade began along the silk road to China; we’ll explore markets from Marrakech to Wall Street . We’ll uncover the dawn of our relationship with money and track its history to more fully understand man’s current relationship with it, and its impact on the world right now.The story of money is the story of modernity . It’s the story of our desires, our genius and our downfalls, and has shaped the very essence of what it means to be human. And yet despite money’s primacy, most of us don’t truly understand it. Where does money come from? How much is out there? Who controls it? Nothing we’ve invented as a species has defined our own evolution so thoroughly and changed the direction of our planet’s history so dramatically. Money is power – and power beguiles, power sparkles and power unleashes our deepest cravings.So then, the story of Money is the story of earth’s most inventive, destructive and dangerous animal, Homo Sapiens. Our story.

In Cultures of Growth, award-winning social psychologist Mary C. Murphy argues that mindset transcends individuals. Drawing on compelling examples from her work with Fortune 500 companies, startups and schools, she shows how we can all create a growth mindset culture.

Murphy’s original decade-long research reveals that organisations and teams more geared toward growth inspire deeper learning, spark collaboration, spur innovation, and build trust necessary for risk-taking and inclusion. They are also less likely to cheat, cut corners, or steal each other’s ideas. And they’re more likely to achieve top results. In these cultures, great ideas come from people from all backgrounds and at all levels - not just those anointed as brilliant or talented.

In a world where success seems reserved for a chosen few, Cultures of Growth unveils a radically different approach to creating organisations that inspire learning, growth, and success at all levels.
