The Diary of a CEO: The 33 Laws of Business and Life<br />
STEVEN BARTLETT<br />
This is not a book about business strategy. Strategy changes like the seasons. This<br />
is a book about something much more permanent.<br />
At the very heart of all the success and failure I've been exposed to - both my own<br />
entrepreneurial journey and through the thousands of interviews I've conducted on<br />
my podcast - are a set of principles that can stand the test of time, apply to any<br />
industry, and be used by anyone who is search of building something great or<br />
becoming someone great.<br />
These are the fundamental laws that will ensure excellence.<br />
They are rooted in psychology and behavioural science, are based on the wisdom of<br />
tens of thousands of people I've surveyed across every continent and age group,<br />
and of course, drawn from the conversations I've had on my chart-topping podcast<br />
with the world's most successful people.<br />
These laws will work now or in 100 years from now. Are you ready to get started?<br />
Hiking beyond Cape Town<br />
NINA DU PLESSIS, WILLIE OLIVIER<br />
Hiking Beyond Cape Town opens a gateway to the myriad trails and tracks that<br />
await hikers – young and old, novice and experienced – beyond the confines of<br />
the city.<br />
This collection of day trips outside of Cape Town features 40 trails, fanning out<br />
from the south coast to the west and covering a range of varied hikes in<br />
between. Ranging between 2 to 7 hours, the hikes are tailored for single-day<br />
trips, although a handful will require overnighting.<br />
Each hike entry includes an accurate, up-to-date route description, a map of the<br />
trail, and directions for getting to the start. In each case, an upfront summary<br />
outlines the distance, duration, grade of difficulty, and elevation of the hike, as<br />
well as other details. Striking colour photographs and observations about the<br />
plant and animal life along the route add lively interest.<br />
A brief introduction provides expert advice on gear, planning and preparation.<br />
