This book challenges the traditional approach to people development in business. It provides a compelling argument and evidence that giving people knowledge alone does not lead to attitude and behaviour change or tangible results. Today, people need to be agile, flexible, and adaptable to meet the unpredictable future caused by the worldwide economic collapse in 2007. Businesses also need to become more agile. Developing a can do mind-set is a prerequisite to all subsequent development and actions. It is the driver for change. Becoming mind fit is the start point. In many years experience, I have always been concerned that something was missing: that magic extra ingredient to ensure the learning would be put into practice. Now with the concept of mind fitness, Graham Williams gives us the answer, challenging the conventional approach to training that, as few acknowledge, doesnt work. As the examples in the book show, learning the Mind Fit way is life-changing! Paul Holmes, BSc, PhD, FCIWEM, C.Env, MCMI Mind Fits innovative processes ensure people are engaged from the outset. Its joined up thinking for businesses who want to be better. Rod Cornwell, international director, Thomas International

We all want good health, live life creatively, avoid suffering, experience deep personal relationships and live our lives fully as possible. We want time and opportunity to enjoy this marvelous earth and be valued by society. What are we willing to do (or not do) to improve the quality of our day to day lives? The Process takes on the challenges of transforming the commonplace into the extraordinary, of bringing about healthy change in as many lives as possible, of learning and practicing together the art of adventuring into the unknown, of changing periods of second hand consciousness into a fuller awareness and expression of the original life, of allowing the greatest potentials of the mind/body to unfold. The mission of The Process Project is to make the art and science of self-actualization and self-knowledge available to as many as possible. The decade of the Brain has opened onto the Century of the Mind. Your personal horizons may be infinite.

When it comes to computer games, the numbers are astounding: the world's top professional gamer has won over half a million dollars shooting virtual monsters on-screen; online games claim literally millions of subscribers; while worldwide spending on computer gaming will top £24 billion by 2011. From techno-toddlers to silver surfers, everyone's playing games on their PCs, Wiis, Xboxes and phones. How are we responding to this onslaught of brain-training, entertaining, potentially addicting, time-consuming, myth-spawning games? In Powering Up, Rebecca Mileham looks at the facts behind the headlines to see what effect this epidemic of game-playing is really having on us and the society we live in. Is it making us obese, anti-social, violent and addicted... or just giving us different ways of getting cleverer, fitter and more skilled? She examines the evidence, from experts and gamers alike, and asks some controversial and thought-provoking questions: Are car-driving games turning us into boy racers? Could becoming a virtual bully help children solve classroom disputes? Should you feel remorse for killing pixel people? Does it matter if you cheat in a single-player game? Can games get ex-prisoners back to work? If you're part of the gaming revolution yourself, or are just curious to know what's fact and what's fiction in the media coverage of this topic, then this is the book for you. About the author Rebecca Mileham has written for the Sunday Times, She magazine, and for museums all over the UK. In ten years at the Science Museum, London, she developed exhibitions on topics as diverse as Charles Babbage's Difference Engines, robotic submarines, face transplants and the male pill. http://www.rebecca.mileham.net/
