Fibi Ward now 14 writes: At the time I was diagnosed [aged 13] I wanted to read something written by somebody of my own age from their perspective about how they dealt with being diagnosed & to reassure myself that all the fears & worries that I had were normal. However I have not seen any such book on the market & have decided to record my own experiences so that other children & teenagers who are newly diagnosed with type I diabetes can get some benefit & comfort by reading about & relating to them. According to Diabetes UK" 10 000 to 15 000 people in the UK are diagnosed with type I diabetes every year. The peak age of diagnosis is between 10 & 14 years. Coming so early in life such a diagnosis can feel like a life sentence both for the young person & for their family. I was scared about returning to school continues Fibi and I didnt want anyone at all to know that I was diabetic. Also I feared that I would never have a boyfriend because I would be different to all the other girls in my class. I was even frightened about going to bed in case I became hypoglycaemic in the night & never woke up. These are just a few of the anxieties I had some of which may seem silly but which were a big deal at the time. I hope that by reading my book other people will be reassured that there is no need to worry about these things & that they will gain some comfort from knowing they are not the only ones who have been through it. I have also included some humorous anecdotes because it isnt all doom & gloom & there are practical tips for example on doing insulin injections going to sleepovers & parties & doing P.E. & sports. I do not claim to be a medical expert but my diabetic nurse has checked everything & added some practical points to support my own experience." ...

When the Harvard Business Review asked Robert Sutton for suggestions for its annual list of Breakthrough Ideas he told them that the best business practice he knew of was the no asshole rule. Suttons piece became one of the most popular articles ever to appear in the HBR. Spurred on by the fear & despair that people expressed the tricks they used to survive with dignity in asshole-infested places the revenge stories that made him laugh out loud & the other small wins that they celebrated against mean-spirited people Sutton was persuaded to write THE NO ASSHOLE RULE. He believes passionately that civilised workplaces are not a naive dream that they do exist do bolster performance & that widespread contempt can be erased & replaced with mutual respect when a team or organisation is managed right. There is a huge temptation by executives & those in positions of authority to overlook this trait especially when exhibited by so-called producers but Sutton shows how overall productivity suffers when the workplace is subjected to this kind of stress. ...
