By JOSHUA GREENE Paperback Modern times have forced the world’s “tribes” or groups of people into a shared space making the moral lines dividing us on everything from tax codes to global warming more salient and puzzling. Harvard’s award-winning teacher and scientist Joshua Greene uses cutting-edge neuroscience and cognitive techniques to reveal the underlying causes of modern conflict and light the way forward. Ultimately, Moral Tribes offers maxims for navigating the modern moral terrain and shows how moral thinking can work better. : Available soon

Jenni Knows IT!

Need a gift that’ll impress one and all? It needn’t be anything digital, you know. People still have to sketch or make quick notes and long to let their imaginations roam freely. Instinctively, you think “paper.” Well, with Paper-oh®’s novel and stylish, yet environmentally friendly, notebooks, you simply can’t go wrong! So… let’s take a closer look at a couple of their creative designs, shall we?

Circulo Allow me to, first, direct your attention to the swank Circulo notebooks whose doublelayered covers create a 3D iconic polka dot pattern. Innovative, yet minimalist, this notebook design takes the simple, yet mesmerising, geometric circle to the next level. Furthermore, Circulo notebooks feature a magnetised, fold-over flap that protects the paper edges. But wait, there’s more!


yuko-ori You must have a look at the Yuko-Ori notebooks, so named to honor the work of Japanese artist Yuko Nishimura. Her transcendental fusion of origami and origata (Japanese gift wrapping) into fascinating 3D-art pieces has inspired this notebook series, intended to capture the simple, yet expressive, Japanese art of paper folding. Truly motivating and aesthetic!

CAHIERS CIRCULO And now last, but certainly not least, I’d like to present to you Cahiers Circulo, which - if you didn’t already know - is French for notebooks. These 80-page notebooks are not only sleek and slim but also flexible and durable. With these notebooks you can choose a 3-D polka-dot cover (available in a number of classy colors or color combinations) or a black or natural-color corrugated cardboard cover that reveals a hint of its sexy red endpaper.

Three types of notebooks, each with its own distinct character, to choose from? What a pleasurable dilemma! Sweetening the deal is the fact that all three perfect designs are made using innovative production techniques to ensure they are fashionable yet entirely functional and they also open completely flat. Moreover, they are made using uncoated paper sourced 100% from sustainable forests and the paper is pressed to make it ideally smooth for writing. Circulo, Yuko-Ori and Cahiers Circulo come in lined formats.

It’s going to be a hard decision to make, isn’t it?

An Amazing book on AmazingThai Jewelry 25 x 25 cm Matt Art Paper 5 Colors 170 Photographs - 50 Original drawings LImited edition ISBN : 978-616-361-662-3


This book recounts the professional memories of Cleon C. Seraidaris, who was the polymath private tutor to Their Majesties the Kings Rama VIII and Rama IX when They were growing up in Switzerland. In response to the suggestion of His Majesty King Bhumibol that these historical events and images be recorded, the author, Lysandre C. Seraidaris, the son of the tutor, publishes this book fifteen years after his father’s passing. This unique testimony, illustrated with photographs and documents from the author’s private family archives, takes readers on a journey highlighting both personal and public events from a world never before revealed. It is the first publication of the memories of the private tutor who devoted twenty-six years of service to the Thai Royal Family in Lausanne. Proceeds from the sales of this book, will be presented to His Majesty King Bhumibol for His charitable causes. Paperback with flaps ; English 9786163484284, French 9782832105399 and Thai 9786163484239
