The average person can have up to four thousand thoughts a day, not all of them useful or rational and some of which can be perplexing and disturbing. Mental flotsam comes in many forms. Someintrusivethoughtsareharmlessirrelevantwords,phrases,or images that flash unprompted into our minds and which exit our heads as quickly as they arrive. Others can be mildly distracting or irritating the snippet of a tune or song that becomes temporarily wedgedinourmind,repeatingitselfendlesslyonaloopuntilfinally leaving. But some thoughts are unwanted and troubling, and not the sort that ever get talked about: the kind that can make a straightlaced teacher randomly wonder about sex with a dog, or a newlymarried and happy businesswoman feel a sudden unexplainedurgetothrowherselfinfrontofaspeedingtrain. Fortunately, as Dr. David Adam explains, these thoughts are perfectly normal and, although sometimes odd, are simply part of the way our minds function and process information. But for a minority of people, these unwanted and intrusive thoughts can lead to debilitating psychological problems and turn into a lifelong OCD. As David Adam explains how the mind works and the nature of obsession, examining evolutionary biology, psychology and neuroscience, we also learn about his own OCD that threatened to destroyhislifeandcareer.

WHYWEBUILD RowanMoore
Architecture,goodandbad,isdrivenbyemotion. In Why We Build Rowan Moore shows how buildingsare shaped by human emotions and desires such as hope, power, money, sex, and the idea of home and how buildings then shape our experiences. He explores the making of buildings from conception to inhabitation, and reveals the paradoxical power of architecture: it looks fixed and solid, but is always changing, in responsetothelivesaroundit. Moore takes us on a personal journey, moving freely across the globe and through history, through works of folly, beauty, spectacle, and subtlety. He uncovers the doomed mansion of an Atlantamultimillionaire, the phenomenallysuccessful HighLine in New York, and the remarkable Museu de Arte in So Paulo.

1946:MAKINGTHEMODERNWORLD VictorSebestyen
In 1946 Victor Sebestyen traces the aftermath and human consequences of World War Two as ordinary people around the worldtriedtoreconstructlifefromthepostwarruins. 1946 was a pivotal year in the making of the modern world. It was the year the Cold War began and Europe was divided along ideological lines on two sides of an Iron Curtain. It was the momentous year that the state of Israel was born. It was the year an independent India was born as the worlds biggest democracy, and oldBritainasagreatimperialpowerbegantodie.Itwastheyearthe Chinese Communists launched their final push for victory in a civil warthatledtothereemergenceofChinaasasuperpower. This is not a book about the peace agreements that brought the war to an end or of elderly statesmen in smoke filled conference chambers deciding the fate of the world, although they do have a leading role to play. At its heart, 1946 offers a dramatic narrative of events and tells how the lives of generations of ordinary people acrosscontinentswereshapedbythatyear. Using vivid, panoramic storytelling, Sebestyen tells a fastmoving human story which shifts from Berlin, to London, Moscow, Washington, Paris as well as Jerusalem, Shanghai, Tokyo, Delhi, and beyond. Piecing together a narrative that reveals how the world we live in today was built on foundations laid then from the creation of the European Union, the birth of the tiger economies of Asia, to the rise of globalisation many big themes emerge that resonatepowerfullyinourcontemporaryworld. Bringing the postwar story together globally and chronologically, as an interlinking and exciting narrative, 1946 is the story of how the modernworldwasrebuilt.

TUDORS TheHistoryofEngland:VolumeII PeterAckroyd

Rich in detail and atmosphere and told in vivid prose, Tudors recounts the transformation of England from a settled Catholic country to a Protestant superpower. It is the story of Henry VIII's cataclysmicbreakwithRome,andhisrelentlesspursuitofboththe perfect wife and the perfect heir; of how the brief reign of the teenage king, Edward VI, gave way to the violent reimposition of Catholicism and the stench of bonfires under 'Bloody Mary'. It tells,too,ofthelongreignofElizabethI,which,thoughmarkedby civil strife, plots against the queen and even an invasion force, finallybroughtstability. Above all, however, it is the story of the English Reformation and the making of the Anglican Church. At the beginning of the sixteenth century, England was still largely feudal and looked to Rome for direction; at its end, it was a country where good governance was the duty of the state, not the church, and where men and women began to look to themselves for answers rather thantothosewhoruledthem.

This is the story of the passionate Victorian evangelists of fine writing, such as Platt Rogers Spencer, who travelled to every corner of America preaching the moral worth of cursive penmanship; and the great modern reformers such as Marion Richardson, who had a deep understanding of how best children might be encouraged to learn to write.But thisisalsoa bookaboutink andpensthemselves, objects that are even now beginning to disappear from our homes and offices; and whether the style of our writing reveals something aboutourtrueselves. Many schools could soon make the move to drop the teaching of handwriting altogether in favour of keyboard skills and so as Hensher himself says: Before handwriting goes altogether, we might lookatwhatithasmeanttous,andwhatwehaveputintoit.

Impossibly good on his day, he has passed into footballing legend, winning a trophy room full of silverware and awards. Instrumental in Frances World Cup and European Cup glories in 1998 and 2000, he is Frances record goalscorer, and continued his incredibly successful career at Barcelonabywinningthetrebleinhissecondseason. But as he approached the autumn of his career, Thierrys crown began to slip from the infamous Hand of Gaul incident to a dismal World Cup 2010 campaign. Suddenly, for the first time, a player who Arsne Wenger once dubbed the greatest striker ever was not universally loved and admired. A man who had spent his career at the very top of the game, raised above his peers on a torrent of extraordinary statistics and trophies, began to learn how lonelysuchapositioncouldbe. So who is the real Thierry Henry? Drawing from numerous interviews and impeccable sources, as well as his own observations over the course of Henrys entire career, awardwinning author Philippe Auclair has produced the most complete portrait of the Arsenal hero ever to be written.

It was 1941 and, just before her eighteenth birthday, that Noreen received her call up papers and was faced with either working in a munitions factory or joiningtheWomensRoyalNavyService.Likingthelookofthenaval uniform, Noreen opted for that. But when one of her interviewers realized she spoke fluent French, she was directed to a government buildingonBakerStreet. It was SOE headquarters, where she was immediately recruited into FSection (F standing for France), led by Colonel Maurice Buckmaster, For the next four years, Noreen worked with Buckmaster and her fellow operatives to support the French Resistance. Sworn to secrecy, Noreen told no one that she spent her days meeting agents returning from behind enemy lines, acting as a decoy, passing on messages in tea rooms and picking up codes in crosswordpuzzles. Vivid, witty, insightful and often moving They Shall Never Surrender is the story of one young womans secret war, offering readers an authentic and compelling insight into what really went on in Churchillssecretarmyfromoneofitslastsurvivingmembers.

THESCHOOLOFLIFE
For two thousand years in the history of the west, the selfhelp book stood as a pinnacle of literary achievement. The assumption behind this long tradition was that the words of otherscanbenefitusnotonlybygivingusapracticaladvice,but also by recasting our private confusions and grief into eloquent communalsentences.Wefeelatoncelessaloneandlessafraid. A key catalyst for the decline of the serious, intelligent selfhelp book has been the development of the modern university system, a system that in the mid 19th century became the main employer for philosophers and intellectuals and started to reward them not for being useful or consoling, but for being objective and rigorous. There began an obsession with accuracy and a corresponding neglect of utility. Alongside this came a growing secularisation of society, the citizens of the future werent supposed to need lectures in how to stay calm or free of anxiety. And so the selfhelp field was abandoned to the many curious types who thrive in it today, utterly cut off from the spirit of theirmorenoblepredecessors,whoknewthatrealismcouldalso haveitstherapeuticbenefits. We need selfhelp books like never before, and that is why The School of Life, in conjunction with Pan Macmillan, have launched a groundbreaking experiment: a series of intelligent, rigorous, wellwritten selfhelp books, put together by some of theleadingmindsinthefield.

Wednesday,May7th Two of them came today, dragged me out of my cage and put me in some kind of improvised maze made out of books and old toilet tubes. A labyrinth with no escape. They were treating it like some kind of game, laughing and squealing as I desperately scrabbled from blind alley to blind alley, but I knew it was no game. They're trying to crush my will, to grind me down. They can take my freedom,buttheywillnevertakemysoul.MynameisEdward,and IAMAHAMSTER. Published inmemory of Poet, Thinker and noted rodent Edward the Hamster (19901990), this delightfully gothic hardback edition of his personal journals constitutes a celebration of his (very) short life. It's also very funny ('Eight months old today. Oh, the things I've seen. The Wheel. The Tray. The Ball. The Whe no, I forget.'). Complete with illustrations of our hard smoking existential hero, this is both abook for anyone who has loved and lost a beloved pet and a moving essay on the nature ofsufferingandthehamstercondition.
