Alan Joyce is no ordinary businessman – running Australia’s national airline as Qantas CEO – he has been in the spotlight from all sides: media, politicians, unions, and the Australian public. Despite the turbulence, Alan Joyce’s legacy is formidable: he modernised Qantas, championed diversity in corporate Australia, and led the company through some of the industry’s darkest moments. To his detractors, he was combative and uncompromising. To his supporters, he was the captain who kept Qantas flying. His memoir reveals how Joyce has never shied from controversy, and captures a fearless leader who, took on critics, and championed equality while steering Qantas through its stormiest skies.
In Joyce’s own words ‘I’m looking forward to setting the record straight – the book will be a forthright and honest account of my time as CEO of Australia’s national flagship. Nothing will be off limits.’
The Smallest Restaurant in Paris

The Smallest Restaurant in Paris combines Rachel Khoo’s unique story with her delicious recipes. Each one chosen to bring the chapter to life.
Where better to follow your dreams than to beautiful Paris? Especially if you dream of food—Paris is the place where fine dining was born, it’s the city of the butteriest croissant and bitterest chocolat, where the markets tumble with produce, the streets buzz with café life and every plat du jour has the chance to be extraordinary. For Rachel Khoo, a young woman from a suburban corner of south London, studying at Le Cordon Bleu was her chosen adventure. But when she took a chance and threw herself into Paris life without a Euro to her name, even she couldn’t have dreamed that it would lead to her opening what the press would crown The Smallest Restaurant in Paris.
Rachel’s Paris life in her adorable (and minuscule) apartment has already been captured in her cookbook and TV show, The Little Paris Kitchen. However, until now Rachel’s books have focused on bringing French-style cooking to her audiences (even if you only have a two-ring cooker). This memoir is an account of Rachel’s high-street-to-Boulevard self-transformation: an inspiring story of how you can reach for your dreams and achieve them through determination and hard work, deciding to love the journey as much as the destination.
