We are entering an era of existential velocity. Technology is scaling exponentially while the institutions meant to govern it remain locked in analog time. In that gap, power doesn't distribute—it concentrates. By design.

Concentrated authority cannot govern the distributed complexity of the AI era.

Sonali Sharma argues the crisis isn't technological—it's structural. She names it the Hero Model: the invisible architecture beneath current leadership, economics, and governance. It has funnelled 80 percent of the world's wealth to the top 10 percent. It was already failing. AI is now exposing its limits.

The Hero Model asks: How can I be smarter, faster, more decisive than everyone else?

This book asks: How do we build the capacity to think together, at the scale our challenges demand?

The 90% Code is a new operating system for rewriting power—pairing collective intelligence with the economic, democratic, and trust infrastructures that let people share ownership, authority, and accountability—over our institutions and over AI itself. A single integrated framework combining systems thinking, Indigenous governance, and distributed ownership, grounded in living cases across centuries and continents.

The end of the hero. The rise of us.

In a world saved by women, the future is finally secure.

It is the year 2080, climate collapse has stabilized, pandemics are controlled, and a global matriarchy has reshaped society around one guiding principle: people over profit.

Meanwhile, her daughter Fiona is drawn to Elijah, a young man from the last remaining patriarchal society. As her feelings deepen, Fiona begins to question everything she has been taught about social structures, gender roles, and even love.

In a world built on balance, what is worth protecting—the truth, or the future it threatens?

In his last few years as an elementary school principal, Jon Wheatley saw a growing number of children with challenging behaviors entering his school, and many well-intentioned educators who were unsure of how to best support them. This led him to write The Kid Calming Toolkit, a practical guide to help educators more skillfully talk and work with children.

This clear and comprehensive resource explains how to better calm children’s challenging behaviors, build skills, and create solutions. The book’s approaches are effective, teacher tested, and research based.

Learn a range of teaching and support strategies to more effectively calm kids, reduce conflict, and improve learning.

The Kid Calming Toolkit will help educators better understand:

• why relationships matter more than discipline

• how behavior is more about skills than choices

• the myth of escalating consequences

Many careers, whether in business, architecture, engineering, or law, demand the ability to write clear, accurate English. Before we’re even hired, our job applications and cover letters must be well-written and organized. But how do we write clearly and accurately? How can we improve our writing skills?

By understanding that written English follows fixed patterns and structures. Write Better English: Making the Right Connections explains these structures and how to use the building blocks of English to write clearly and cohesively. This writing manual builds from words and clauses to sentences, paragraphs, and essays, while giving examples of traps to avoid and techniques to use. It introduces how to:

• recognize the basic elements of sentences,

• distinguish between main and supporting ideas,

• learn how to connect ideas into logical sequences, and

• express one’s thoughts in writing without losing clarity or meaning.

More than anything, this guide shows how good writing starts with clear thinking. Clarity doesn’t have to mean linear. It’s about understanding relationships, whether that’s between words and clauses or between ideas. The more we comprehend these connections, the better we will write.

Informative and practical, Write Better English presents writing as a craft we can learn, rather than an art form requiring talent. It is a must read for anyone looking to improve their English writing skills.
