1st U.K., reprint ed. Paperback trade, very good condition. 342 pp. Arianna Huffington, the co-founder and editor-in-chief of the Huffington Post - and one of the most influential women in the world - has written a passionate call to arms, looking to redefine what it means to be successful in today's world. She likens our drive for money and power to two legs of a three-legged stool. It may hold us up temporarily, but sooner or later we're going to topple over. We need a third leg - a third metric for defining success - in order to live a healthy life. In this deeply personal book, she talks candidly about her own challenges with managing time and prioritising the demands of a career and two daughters. Draws on the latest groundbreaking research and scientific findings in the fields of psychology, sports, sleep and physiology, she shows the profound and transformative effects of meditation, mindfulness, unplugging and giving.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. Jacket by Jacob Phillips (illustrator). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with '1' on copyright page. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT DEDICATION, IN HEAVY BLACK PEN, ON TITLE PAGE. Some minuscule edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, not price clipped (£16.99), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy, looks unread. 307pp. In 2014 an Oxford graduate called Dr Ruja Ignatova promised to revolutionise money and make people rich in the process. The future, she said, belonged to cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. And the self styled Crypto Queen vowed that she had invented the Bitcoin Killer. She launched OneCoin, an exciting new cryptocurrency that she promised would not only earn its investors untold fortunes, it would change the world. OneCoin swept the globe, becoming one of the fastest companies to make $1 billion in revenue. By 2017, billions of dollars had been invested in OneCoin in hundreds of countries, from the USA to Pakistan, Hong Kong to Yemen, and the UK to Uganda. But by the end of the year Ruja Ignatova had disappeared, along with the money, and it slowly became clear that her revolutionary cryptocurrency was not all it seemed. 'The Missing Crypto Queen' tells the unbelievable story of the rise, disappearance and fall of Dr Ruja Ignatova. It is a modern tale of intrigue, techno hype and herd madness that reveals how OneCoin became the biggest scam of the 21st Century. Very scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).
