You're feeling especially loved-up after last night's candlelit dinner, but have you ever stopped to think about why we fall in love? I have to say, before reading The Logic of Life, I never once considered that my choice of partner was a rational choice. He's lovely, but I've always been of the opinion that falling in love is down to chemistry, instinct and lots of other things that have no connection with logic. It's not very romantic if your boyfriend has weighed up your pros and cons and decided that you're a logical move, is it?

When Sarah, our Audio Commissioning Editor asked a group of us if we would like to be part of the audience at a recording session for the next Benjamin Fry audiobook, I jumped at the chance. Not just because I’d never been to see an audiobook being recorded, or because it was an entire morning out of the office with lunch. But because Benjamin Fry’s book is called How To Be Rich. Oh yes, I was finally going to learn how to make big money even with a career in publishing.
