Edge : Turning Adversity into Advantage
There's power in owning the obstacles you might face.This book shows you how to unlock it. In an ideal world, we'd succeed based on our actual skills and performance.But in the real world, subtle perceptions and stereotypes - about appearance, race, gender, experience and more - colour others' perceptions.The result might be that your hard work isn't noticed or appreciated, your effort doesn't lead to proportional rewards and your good ideas aren't taken seriously. But it doesn't have to be that way. As Harvard Business School Professor Laura Huang has discovered, there's a way to flip stereotypes and obstacles in your favour.Drawing on compelling case studies and her groundbreaking research on overcoming bias, Huang explains that by finding your edge, you can turn perceived disadvantages into real strengths - and into real success. Creating an edge is the key to succeeding within an imperfect system. Edge will help you make your hard work work harder for you.It will help you be seen - and empower you to take the spotlight with authenticity, charm and poise.

Byron and the Poetics of Adversity
A long line of traditional, often conservative, criticism and cultural commentary deplored Byron as a slipshod poet.This pithy yet aptly poetic book, written by one of the world's foremost Romantic scholars, argues that assessment is badly mistaken.Byron's great subject is what he called 'Cant': the habit of abusing the world through misusing language.Setting up his poetry as a laboratory to investigate failures of writing, reading, and thinking, Byron delivered sharp critical judgment on the costs exacted by a careless approach to his Mother Tongue.Perspicuous readings of Byron alongside some of his Romantic contemporaries – Burns, Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Shelley – reveal Byron's startling reconfiguration of poetry as a 'broken mirror' and shattered lamp.The paradoxical result was to argue that his age's contradictions, and his own, offered both ethical opportunities and a promise of poetic – broadly cultural – emancipation.This book represents a major contribution to ideas about Romanticism.
