Timmy Failure’s Completely Calamitous 5 Books Boxset (Mistakes Were Made, Now Look What You’ve Done, We Meet Again, Sanitized for Your Protection and The Book You’re Not Supposed to Have)

“An endearingly pathetic antihero with delusions of greatness. . . . Seldom has failure been so likable — or so funny.”
— The Wall Street Journal

Timmy Failure is a brilliantly bad eleven-year-old detective and CEO of his own detective agency “Total Failure, Inc”. Assisted by his polar bear sidekick, Total, Timmy sets out to solve mysteries, fight evil, make money to pay his mum’s bills and most importantly defeat his arch-enemy Corrina Corrina (the-girl-who-shall-not-be-named) who has a rival agency and top marks at school to boot. Timmy and Total’s antics are unfailingly hilarious and their clueless yet strangely over-confident attempts to fight crime will have you crying with laughter.

Written and illustrated by comic genius Stephan Pastis, the cartoon illustrations bring the stories to life. Pastis turned his hand to children’s fiction with the first Timmy Failure book Mistakes Were Made in 2013. It was an instant bestseller in the US and is soon to be made into a Disney film.

There are now seven books in the series which is a must for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Barry Loser or Tom Gates, and all readers aged 8 and upwards who love silly stories. The comic adventures of Timmy and Total are riotous but also surprisingly poignant and may bring a tear to your eye.

Start with Book 1 to get Timmy’s back story and his “historical record of my life as a detective”, rigorously fact-checked by Timmy himself and prepare for a side-splitting adventure.

This Collection Includes:

1. Mistakes Were Made
2. Now Look What You’ve Done
3. We Meet Again
4. Sanitized For Your Protection
5. The Book You’re Not Supposed to Have

‘Ground-breaking. Everyone should read this book’ Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score

When it comes to understanding the connection between our mental and physical health, we should be looking at the exceptions, not the rules.

Observing the common denominators of people who have beaten the odds, Dr Rediger reveals the immense power of our immune system and unlocks the secrets of the mind-body connection. In Cured, he explains the vital role that nutrition plays in boosting our immunity and fighting off disease, and he also outlines how stress, trauma and identity affect our physical health.

In analysing the remarkable science of recovery, Dr Rediger reveals the power of our mind to heal our body and shows us the keys to good health.

‘In an era of incurable chronic diseases causing 60% of all deaths worldwide, this book provides one potential way out’ Dr Mark Hyman, author of The Blood Sugar Solution

‘Seasoned with the author’s penetrating insights about healing, clearly articulated science and illuminating case histories, Cured opens genuine vistas of transforming illness into health’ Gabor Maté, author of When the Body Says No

India on the Move

Things start to heat up in the national capital when protests erupt in the campus of JNU against the protestors of the judicial hanging of Afsal Guru and Maqbool Bhat. Very soon the students would go from being research scholars to ‘jihadis’, ‘violent communists’ and ‘anti-nationals’ resulting in the larger questions of a true nationalist.
Slogans like Bharat mata ki jai and Jai Shri Ram, which were traditionally used to express reverence to the nation and a salutation to Lord Rama respectively, have been appropriated as political slogans. Whilst until now, Bharat Mata ki Jai and Jai Shree Ram ran parallel in the country’s political discourse, today they lead the same way. On one hand, there are those who view patriotism and nationalism as synonymous with blind obedience and conformity. On the other, those who believe in a more inclusive and diverse India, where dissent and criticism are essential components of a thriving and functioning democracy. This book attempts to view events following the JNU event, the farmers’ protest, Balakot strikes and the subsequent unravelling of deep fissures within us.

The Corporate Life Cycle

Throughout his storied career, Aswath Damodaran has searched for the universal key to demystifying corporate finance and valuation. Now, at last, he offers the groundbreaking answer to readers everywhere. It turns out there is a corporate lifecycle very much like our own, with unique stages of growth and decline. And just as we must learn to act our age, so too must companies. By better understanding how corporations age and the characteristics of each stage of their lifecycle, we can unlock the secrets behind any businesses’ behavior and optimize our management and investment decisions accordingly. As the corporate lifecycle touches virtually every aspect of business, this book is for anyone with skin in the corporate finance game—from managers to investors, from novices to seasoned pros.

The Essentials of World Religions

It may be the twenty-first century but religious tensions and conflicts continue all across the world. Even today, religion continues to play an unparalleled role in the lives of individuals and nations with people and leaders pitting one religious identity against another. But the question that needs to be asked is this: are all religions fundamentally different from each other?

What if we go back to the source texts of all great religions of the world? What will we find?

Will we find a mountain of differences or a sea of harmony? This book addresses this question and is sure to surprise you with its findings.
