Book excerpt: Work At Home is a no-nonsense guide to launching a work-at-home business by this time next month—even if someone is starting from scratch. In Work At Home, Caitlin Pyle, an entrepreneur, walks readers through three simple steps to work-at-home or work-from-anywhere freedom. The first step is to break free from the lies about education, money, work, business, and success that keep people from building work-at-home income. The second step is to avoid the scams and identifying the right opportunity. The third step is to launch a work-at-home business. Throughout the book, Caitlin shares the ups and downs of the work-at-home world using the same no-nonsense approach that helped her get featured in publications such as Forbes, Business Insider, Fast Company, and more. Work At Home even provides readers with a thirty-day launch plan to help them start earning real work-at-home income by this time next month.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most books on freelance writing promise the moon and don't deliver. Freelance writing is not an easy ticket to wealth -- it's an enjoyable profession for the person who has some talent and the desire to work hard. Tom Williams gives the guidance needed to make your efforts pay off. His advice is highly practical, detailed, tested, and no-nonsense. He doesn't overwhelm the reader with irrelevant digressions, or load the book with fluff and empty promises. Instead, he offers hard-earned tips, insight into how editors think, and all the information a writer needs to become a successful freelancer. None of the competitive books reveals the stylistic secrets that editors are looking for, how to protect your ideas, or what happens when your book or article gets published; Williams thoroughly covers these areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's addiction to economic growth continues with barely any recognition that this is a problem.

This no-nonsense guide looks deeper into the idea of economic growth - to trace its history and understand why it has become so unchallengeable and powerful.
