<b>A REESE WITHERSPOON x HELLO SUNSHINE BOOK CLUB PICK<br /><br />"A hands-on, real talk guide for navigating the hot-button issues that so many families struggle with."--Reese Witherspoon <br /><br />A revolutionary, real-world solution to the problem of unpaid, invisible work that women have shouldered for too long.</b><br /><br />It started with the Sh*t I Do List. Tired of being the "shefault" parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky counted up all the unpaid, invisible work she was doing for her family -- and then sent that list to her husband, asking for things to change. His response was... underwhelming. Rodsky realized that simply identifying the issue of unequal labor on the home front wasn't enough: She needed a <i>solution</i> to this universal problem. Her sanity, identity, career, and marriage depended on it. <br /><br />The result is Fair Play: a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers couples a completely new way to divvy up domestic responsibilities. Rodsky interviewed more than five hundred men and women from all walks of life to figure out what the invisible work in a family actually entails and how to get it all done efficiently. With four easy-to-follow rules, 100 household tasks, and a figurative card game you play with your partner, <i>Fair Play </i>helps you prioritize what's important to your family and who should take the lead on every chore from laundry to homework to dinner. <br /><br />"Winning" this game means rebalancing your home life, reigniting your relationship with your significant other, and reclaiming your Unicorn Space -- as in, the time to develop the skills and passions that keep you interested and interesting. Are you ready to try Fair Play? Let's deal you in.

<b><b><b>Look out for Daniel Pink’s new book, <i>When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing</i></b><br /><br />#1 <i>New York Times</i> Business Bestseller </b><br /> <b>#1 <i>Wall Street</i> <i>Journal</i> Business Bestseller</b><br /> <b>#1 <i>Washington Post</i> bestseller</b><br /><br /> From the bestselling author of <i>Drive </i>and <i>A Whole New Mind </i>comes a surprising--and surprisingly useful--new book that explores the power of selling in our lives.</b><br /><br /> According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, one in nine Americans works in sales. Every day more than fifteen million people earn their keep by persuading someone else to make a purchase.<br /><br /> But dig deeper and a startling truth emerges:<br /><br /> Yes, one in nine Americans works in sales. <i>But so</i> <i>do the other eight</i>.<br /><br /> Whether we’re employees pitching colleagues on a new idea, entrepreneurs enticing funders to invest, or parents and teachers cajoling children to study, we spend our days trying to move others. Like it or not, we’re all in sales now.<br /><br /> <i>To Sell Is Human</i> offers a fresh look at the art and science of selling. As he did in <i>Drive </i>and <i>A Whole New Mind</i>, Daniel H. Pink draws on a rich trove of social science for his counterintuitive insights. He reveals the new ABCs of moving others (it's no longer "Always Be Closing"), explains why extraverts don't make the best salespeople, and shows how giving people an "off-ramp" for their actions can matter more than actually changing their minds.<br /><br /> Along the way, Pink describes the six successors to the elevator pitch, the three rules for understanding another's perspective, the five frames that can make your message clearer and more persuasive, and much more. The result is a perceptive and practical book--one that will change how you see the world and transform what you do at work, at school, and at home.
