Current global trends are bleak: weak economic growth, too much debt, declining incomes for the lower 99 percent, a dangerous addiction to fossil fuels, and ecological destruction - just to name a few.

But what if we told you that there are specific attainable steps you can take today that can limit your vulnerability to these trends and help you be richer, healthier, and happier?

Jack Glass is the murderer. We know this from the start. Yet as this extraordinary novel tells the story of three murders committed by Glass, the listener will be surprised to find out that it was Glass who was the killer and how he did it. And by the end of the book our sympathies for the killer are fully engaged. Riffing on the tropes of crime fiction (the country house murder, the locked room mystery) and imbued with the feel of golden age sci-fi, Jack Glass is another bravura performance from Roberts.

Little wonder, then, that he meets a violent end on a foggy street after walking out of a particularly bitter meeting with outraged residents facing eviction. But the cause of his death causes more wonder.

Gute Menschen haben immer das Nachsehen, und die Egoisten räumen ab – dieses Denkschema stimmt nicht mehr. Denn gerade mit einer selbstlosen Einstellung kommt man meist besser voran. Anstand, Empathie und soziale Verantwortung zahlen sich aus. Anhand schlagender Beispiele aus der Wirtschaftswelt verdeutlicht der führende amerikanische Organisationspsychologe Adam Grant, dass vor allem Geber den Weg zu beruflichem Erfolg und persönlicher Zufriedenheit finden – und dass sie so unsere Arbeitswelt und Wettbewerbsgesellschaft ein Stück wertschätzender und menschlicher gestalten.
