Winning takes many forms. For fans of Matthew Syed, this is a great
sports book about leadership, judgement and decision-making -
rooted in the theory that helped Ed Smith lead England cricket to
sustained success. And to help us all win more. 'An absolutely
fascinating book' THE GAME, The Times football pod How do you spot
the opportunities that others miss? How do you turn a team's
performance around? How do you make good decisions amid a tidal
wave of information? And how can you improve? As chief selector for
the England cricket team, Ed Smith pioneered new methods for
building successful teams and watched his decisions tested in real
time on the pitch. During his three-year tenure, England averaged 7
wins in every 10 completed matches, better than they have performed
before or since. Making Decisions reveals Smith's unique approach
to finding success in a fast-changing and increasingly data-reliant
world. The best decisions, Smith argues, rely on a combination of
differing kinds of intelligence: from algorithms to intuition. This
is a truth that the most successful people know: data cannot
account for everything, it must be harnessed with human insight.
Whatever the power of data, humans aren't finished yet. Sharing for
the first time the tools he introduced as England selector, Smith's
book captures the immediacy of life at the sharp end, while also
exploring frameworks from the top levels of sports, business and
the arts. Decision-making is revealed as a creative enterprise, not
a reductive system. Making Decisions offers an invaluable guide for
those who want a better framework for developing, explaining and
implementing new ideas.
"Once again, Ed Smith has done something really smart. Cooking the
flavours we are craving in any given moment, the resulting book feels
so novel and fresh. Ed's writing is thoughtful and conversational; his
recipes confident and delicious." Yotam Ottolenghi
6 Flavour Profiles. Over 100 recipes. Every craving covered.
Why do we choose to cook the things we do, when we do? Most of the
time, it is simply so we can eat what we really fancy; a subconscious
response to a constantly fluctuating state of mind and appetite that s
influenced by mood, season, weather, memory, occasion, outside events
and internal feelings.
Ed Smith helps his readers home in on their cravings (whatever the
reason for them) by organising his recipes within six cleverly
conceived flavour profiles: fresh and fragrant chilli and heat tart and
sour curried and spiced rich and savoury; and (best of all?) cheesy and
creamy. There s also a directory of alternative cravings at the back,
providing additional ways in. All bases are covered, from snacks
through sides, to main courses and puddings.
Think of fermented and fresh tomato salad with feta for when both sun
and cook are already smiling; or lamb chops with cacio e pepe white
beans if in need of a re-set; the likes of 'nduja spatchcock chicken,
should a tickle of chilli be in order; or curried brisket noodles to
meet spice needs. Whether we want snap and crunch or velvet softness,
sharp citrus or warming aromatics, or just something involving
bubbling, molten cheese, CRAVE presents a fresh take on seasonal
cookery, but goes beyond that too acknowledging core instincts and base
itches, and so delivering recipes you ll want to make every day of the
week, whatever the weather or mood.

A revolutionary cookbook with 140 recipes that move the humble side
dish to centre stage. 'Full of recipes I want to cook and eat'
Yotam Ottolenghi 'Both a beautiful and eminently useful cookbook'
Anna Jones 'I want to eat every recipe in this book' Nigel Slater
'A very good idea... enough to make the book a winner!' Stephen
Harris, chef-owner of The Sportsman Whilst writing his food blog,
Rocket & Squash, Ed Smith noticed that a key part of our meals
was being ignored. On too many occasions, side dishes were being
relegated to an overboiled afterthought, or dismissed with a
throwaway 'eat with potatoes' or 'serve with seasonal greens' line.
But our side dishes have the potential to be as inspirational as
the main event itself. In fact, they're often the best bit! Here
it's the 'two veg' rather than the meat which are given the
spotlight: you'll find 140 inspiring recipes and insightful tips to
make your pulses, roots, vegetables and greens dazzle in their own
right. Think of garlic oil pea shoots, smoky ratatouille, celeriac
baked in a salt and thyme crust, carrots with brown butter and
hazelnuts, spelt grains with wild mushrooms, and chorizo roast
potatoes. Complete with a recipe directory that will help you find
the perfect accompaniment, whatever your cooking, On the Side will
brighten and invigorate every meal.

'Like the market, the book is exciting, instructive, seductive and
inspirational.' -Claudia Roden _____________ An essential gift for
the keen cook in your life. Borough Market is the beating heart of
London's food scene. Every year millions of locals and tourists
flock to Borough Market to soak up the unique atmosphere, interact
with the expert traders and sample the world-class produce. This
gorgeous book takes you on a tour of a year at the Market, from the
beginning of spring, through Easter and Midsummer, to Apple Day in
October and the switching on of the lights at Christmas - with the
most delicious recipes highlighting the very best of those
celebrations. Divided by season, each recipe celebrates at least
one hero ingredient from that time of year: why not try Chilled
asparagus soup in spring; Rolled pork belly and sticky nectarines
in summer; Beetroot dal in autumn; or Clementine sponges with
cranberry sauce in winter? Along the way, you'll be introduced to
key seasonal ingredients with shopping and preparation tips,
straight from the artisan producers, that will change how you cook
for ever. Packed full of beautiful photography, much of it shot on
location at Borough throughout the year, this is a cookbook that
will inspire food lovers and home cooks everywhere, even if they
only follow Borough Market from afar. _____________ THE PERFECT
SPRING MENU Globe artichokes with lemon and herb butter One of the
easiest and best ways to enjoy an artichoke is to cook and consume
the whole thing - dip the petals into the herby butter and suck
them as you work your way towards the tender heart in the middle.
Lamb meatballs in pea and herb broth Perfect for this time of year:
minted lamb meatballs in a light broth, studded with sweet sugar
snap and mangetout peas. Mango and passion fruit posset An
irresistible combination of sweet mango and sharp passion fruit,
this posset is even more enjoyable if served with a buttery biscuit
or tuile.
For aspiring cricketer Ed Smith, luck was for other people. Ed
believed that the successful cricketer made his own luck by an
application of will power, elimination of error, and the relentless
pursuit of excellence. But when a freak accident at the crease at
Lords prematurely ended Ed Smith's international cricketing career,
it changed everything - and prompted him to look anew at his own
life through the prism of luck. Tracing the history of the concepts
of luck and fortune, destiny and fate, from the ancient Greeks to
the present day - in religion, in banking, in politics - Ed Smith
argues that the question of luck versus skill is as pertinent today
as it ever has been. He challenges us to think again about
privilege and opportunity, to re-examine the question of innate
ability and of gifts and talents accidentally conferred at birth.
Weaving in his personal stories - notably the chance meeting of a
beautiful stranger who would become his wife on a train he seemed
fated to miss - he puts to us the idea that in life, luck cannot be
underestimated: without any means of explaining our differing lots
in life, the world without luck is one in which you deserve every
ill that befalls you, where envy dominates and averageness is the
stifling ideal. Embracing luck leads us to a fresh reappraisal of
the nature of success, opportunity and fairness.
