Maygen McDougall is a wise young working-class woman who has done her best to navigate through twenty-one years of life, despite her challenges, obstacles, and sorrows. In a frank sometimes humorous memoir that highlights her coming-of-age journey to date, McDougall recounts her experiences from her early teenage years until today. While sharing insight into her life, heartbreak, joys, and misadventures, McDougall explores a variety of topics that include suicide, sexual assault, race, class struggles, bisexuality, and worst of all, working in retail. Included are photographs as well as her thoughts about mean girls, ignorance, America’s riots, and the opposites of life. Throughout the retelling of her story as a product of Generation Z, McDougall reminds others of the importance of seeing both sides of the coin, no matter how dark it may be, and laughter, even during the hardest of times. Opposites and Everything In-Between is the true story of a young English woman’s experiences as she embraces all life has to offer, both good and bad, while discovering her identity amid a working-class world.

An ambitious new history of philosophy in English that broadens the canon to include many lesser-known figures Ludwig Wittgenstein once wrote that “philosophy should be written like poetry.” But philosophy has often been presented more prosaically as a long trudge through canonical authors and great works. But what, Jonathan Rée asks, if we instead saw the history of philosophy as a haphazard series of unmapped forest paths, a mass of individual stories showing endurance, inventiveness, bewilderment, anxiety, impatience, and good humor? Here, Jonathan Rée brilliantly retells this history, covering such figures as Descartes, Locke, Kant, Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, Mill, James, Frege, Wittgenstein, and Sartre. But he also includes authors not usually associated with philosophy, such as William Hazlitt, George Eliot, Darwin, and W. H. Auden. Above all, he uncovers dozens of unremembered figures—puritans, revolutionaries, pantheists, feminists, nihilists, socialists, and scientists—who were passionate and active readers of philosophy, and often authors themselves. Breaking away from high-altitude narratives, he shows how philosophy finds its way into ordinary lives, enriching and transforming them in unexpected ways.

How do you do two seemingly opposite things at once? How can you be candid and diplomatic, provide structure and flexibility, keep things stable and lead change, and focus on organizational interests while simultaneously doing what's best for employees? Many approach these polarities with either/or thinking, but leaders, teams, and organizations that navigate them using a both/and mindset significantly outperform those who don't. The trick is knowing how. In their work with thousands of people across the globe, Brian Emerson and Kelly Lewis have seen the tension and stress polarities can create in relationships, teams, and in organizations. In this book, they share the practical tools to transform that tension into a positive driving force by expanding either/or thinking to include a both/and mindset.
