In The FBI Way top FBI officer Frank Figliuzzi reveals how to excel with life lessons learnt from his career at the agency.

There are also books to make you think about the world that we live in today, such as influential US journalist Charles Blow’s The Devil You Know, an inspiring call to action on race that will no doubt generate many talking points.

and call to action for Black Americans to amass political power and fight white supremacy.

‘Race, as we have come to understand it, is a fiction; but, is not to impose a new racial hierarchy, but to remove an overturn white supremacy, it seems to me that it has fallen to Black people to do it themselves.’

Drawing on both political and personal observations, Charles Blow sets out to offer a call to action by which Black people can finally achieve equality, on their own terms.

This book is a grand exhortation, offering a road map to true and lasting freedom.

Her parents, Valerie and Tom, sought every therapy possible in the hope that Emily would one day be able to reveal herself. When this miraculous breakthrough occurred, Emily was finally able to give insight into the life, frustrations, and joys of a person with autism.

The Mission is the never-before-told story of modern space exploration, and a magnificent portrait of the inner lives of scientists who study the solar system’s mysterious outer planets.

Told by Valerie, with insights, stories and poetry from Emily, I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust is an evocative and affecting memoir in which mother and daughter learn to see each other for who they are.
