Description

She returned home to build the future.
Instead, she found herself helping destroy it.

Zuri Odhiambo left the shores of Lake Victoria to become one of the brightest young minds in artificial intelligence.

At twenty-four, she returns to her grandmother’s village believing she can finally build something for her people—only to discover a foreign lithium project swallowing ancestral land, a childhood love turned revolutionary, and her own software quietly repurposed into a weapon of surveillance.

As multinational investors, political elites, and digital empires tighten their grip on the region, Zuri is forced to confront a devastating truth:

the systems she once believed would liberate Africa may be the very systems helping to erase it.

Caught between loyalty and ambition, memory and progress, love and betrayal, Zuri must decide how much of herself she is willing to sacrifice to stop a future she helped create.

Unmanageable is a haunting literary novel about identity, power, and the cost of belonging in a world where even hope can be weaponized.

Ama and the Drumbeat of Home

KShs499.00 KShs350.00
This story follows a child who learns that cultural identity is portable. You can leave your village, cross borders, enter unfamiliar spaces—and still carry your home within you. This is the Ubuntu philosophy in action: "I am because we are," but also, "We are because I remember." In an era where African children increasingly navigate between traditional spaces and global ones, this story offers a bridge. It says: You do not have to choose between worlds. You can be a child of the village and a citizen of the world, because the drumbeat travels with you. May this story find its way into classrooms from Lagos to Nairobi, from Kumasi to Kinshasa—and may every child who reads it hear their own rhythm more clearly.

UNMASKED: The High Achiever’s Blueprint Deconstructing the Psychology of Exceptional Performance

KShs999.00 KShs930.00

The first movement of UNMASKED is a clinical descent into the structural integrity of your current life. We begin with a brutal premise: Most high achievers are living in a "furnished emptiness." You have built a skyscraper of success on a foundation of sand. This section introduces the Performance Pyramid, a five-level diagnostic framework that maps the exact coordinates of your achievement-identity fusion. We don't just ask what you have achieved; we ask why you had to achieve it to feel safe.

The core of this archaeology is identifying the Success Paradox. You have spent years believing that the next milestone would provide the "peace" or "arrival" you crave, only to find that each peak reveals a higher, more exhausting mountain. This isn't a failure of effort; it is a failure of Identity Infrastructure. We use the Achievement-Identity Fusion Scale (AIFS) to quantify how much of your psychological oxygen is currently rented from external validation. This section forces a "Recognition Commitment"—an acknowledgment that your current operating system is designed for output, not for the human being responsible for that output.

Screw It, Let’s Do It Expanded

,
KShs1,495.00 KShs1,421.00
Throughout my life I have achieved many remarkable things. In Screw It, Let's Do It, I will share with you my ideas and the secrets of my success, but not simply because I hope they'll help you achieve your individual goals. Today we are increasingly aware of the effects of our actions on the environment, and I strongly believe that we each have a responsibility, as individuals and organisations, to do no harm. I will draw on Gaia Capitalism to explain why we need to take stock of how we may be damaging the environment, and why it is up to big companies like Virgin to lead the way in a more holistic approach to business. In Screw It, Let's Do It I'll be looking forwards to the future. A lot has changed since I founded Virgin in 1968, and I'll explain how I intend to take my business and my ideas to the next level and the new and exciting areas - such as launching Virgin Fuels - into which Virgin is currently moving. But I have also brought together all the important lessons, good advice and inspirational adages that have helped me along the road to success. Ironically, I have never been one to do things by the book, but I have been inspired and influenced by many remarkable people. I hope that you too might find a little inspiration between these pages." ISBN:753511497 Author:Richard Branson

Virgin Way

Now Branson gives an inside look at his strikingly different swashbuckling style of leadership. Learn how fun, family, passion, and the dying art of listening are key components to what his extended family of employees around the world have always dubbed (with a wink) the "Virgin Way.” This unique perspective comes from a man who dropped out of school at sixteen, suffers from dyslexia, and has never worked for anyone but himself. He may be famous for thinking outside the box—an expression he despises—but Branson asserts that "you’ll never have to think outside the box if you refuse to let anyone build one around you.” This is a unique book on leadership from someone who readily admits he has never read a book on leadership in his life. So expect the unexpected."" ISBN:1591847564 Author:Richard Branson

Hot Flat and Crowded by Thomas Friedman

,
KShs1,699.00 KShs1,615.00
Brief Summary Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution – and How It Can Renew America In this brilliant, essential book, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Thomas L. Friedman speaks to America's urgent need for national renewal and explains how a green revolution can bring about both a sustainable environment and a sustainable America. Friedman explains how global warming, rapidly growing populations, and the expansion of the world’s middle class through globalization have produced a dangerously unstable planet--one that is "hot, flat, and crowded." In this Release 2.0 edition, he also shows how the very habits that led us to ravage the natural world led to the meltdown of the financial markets and the Great Recession. The challenge of a sustainable way of life presents the United States with an opportunity not only to rebuild its economy, but to lead the world in radically innovating toward cleaner energy. And it could inspire Americans to something we haven't seen in a long time--nation-building in America--by summoning the intelligence, creativity, and concern for the common good that are our greatest national resources. Hot, Flat, and Crowded is classic Thomas L. Friedman: fearless, incisive, forward-looking, and rich in surprising common sense about the challenge--and the promise--of the future.

A rich deposit of valuable minerals have been found in the Hermit Kingdom.
