This is the story of a life in crisis, set in the world of high finance. At the age of twenty-eight, Dubliner Geri Molloy has put her troubled past behind her to become a major player at Steiner's investment bank in London, earning $850k a year doing business with a reclusive hedge fund manager in Hong Kong who, in return for his patronage, likes to ask her about Kant & watch while she eats exotic Asian delicacies. For five years Geri has had it all, but in the months leading up to the outbreak of the Gulf War in 1991, her life starts to unravel. Abandoned by her corporate financier boyfriend, in the grip of a debilitating insomnia, & drinking far too much, Geri becomes entangled in a hostile takeover involving her boss, her client & her ex. With her career on the line as a consequence, & no one to turn to, she is close to losing it, in every sense. Taut & fast-paced, On the Floor is about making money & taking risks; it's about getting away with it, & what happens when you're no longer one step ahead; ultimately, though, it's a reminder to never, ever underestimate the personal cost of success. ...

Maps fascinate us. They chart our understanding of the world & they log our progress, but above all they tell our stories. From the early sketches of philosophers & explorers through to Google Maps & beyond, Simon Garfield examines how maps both relate & realign our history, with pocket maps of dragons, Mars, murders & more, with plenty of illustrations & prints to signpost the route. His compelling narratives range from the quest to create the perfect globe to the challenges of mapping Africa & Antarctica, from spellbinding treasure maps to the naming of America, from Ordnance Survey to the mapping of Monopoly & Skyrim, & from rare map dealers to cartographic frauds. En route, there are 'pocket map' tales on dragons & undergrounds, a nineteenth century murder map, the research conducted on the different ways that men & women approach a map, & an explanation of the curious long-term cartographic role played by animals. On The Map is a witty & irrepressible examination of where we've been, how we got there & where we're going. " Delightful. If maps be the fuel of wanderlust, read on." From the foreword by Dava Sobel, author of Longitude. ...

When Oliver Sacks was twelve years old, a perceptive schoolmaster wrote in his report: Sacks will go far, if he does not go too far. It is now abundantly clear that Sacks has never stopped going. From its opening pages on his youthful obsession with motorcycles & speed, On the Move is infused with his restless energy.

As he recounts his experiences as a young neurologist in the early 1960s, first in California & then in New York, where he discovered a long-forgotten illness in the back wards of a chronic hospital, as well as with a group of patients who would define his life, it becomes clear that Sackss earnest desire for engagement has occasioned unexpected encounters & travels
- sending him through bars & alleys, over oceans, & across continents.

With unbridled honesty & humour, Sacks shows us that the same energy that drives his physical passions
- bodybuilding, weightlifting, & swimming
- also drives his cerebral passions. He writes about his love affairs, both romantic & intellectual, his guilt over leaving his family to come to America, his bond with his schizophrenic brother, & the writers & scientists
- Thom Gunn, A. R. Luria, W. H. Auden, Gerald M. Edelman, Francis Crick
- who influenced him.

On the Move is the story of a brilliantly unconventional physician & writer
- & of the man who has illuminated the many ways that the brain makes us human.
