Tip of the Iceberg available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. **The National Bestseller** From the acclaimed, bestselling author of Turn Right at Machu Picchu, a fascinating, wild, and wonder-filled journey into Alaska, America's last frontier In 1899, railroad magnate Edward H. Harriman organized a most unusual summer voyage to the wilds of Alaska: He converted a steamship into a luxury "floating university," populated by some of America's best and brightest scientists and writers, including the anti-capitalist eco-prophet John Muir. Those aboard encountered a land of immeasurable beauty and impending environmental calamity. More than a hundred years later, Alaska is still America's most sublime wilderness, both the lure that draws one million tourists annually on Inside Passage cruises and as a natural resources larder waiting to be raided. As ever, it remains a magnet for weirdos and dreamers. Armed with Dramamine and an industrial-strength mosquito net, Mark Adams sets out to retrace the 1899 expedition. Traveling town to town by water, Adams ventures three thousand miles north through Wrangell, Juneau, and Glacier Bay, then continues west into the colder and stranger regions of the Aleutians and the Arctic Circle. Along the way, he encounters dozens of unusual characters (and a couple of very hungry bears) and investigates how lessons learned in 1899 might relate to Alaska's current struggles in adapting to the pressures of a changing climate and world.

A wave of entrepreneurship has been sweeping across India. The success of start-ups like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Paytm, Ola and others has veered the discourse towards high valuations. But what we mostly see is very much the tip of the iceberg. Behind every high valuation of today is a story of blood, sweat, toil and tears. For every entrepreneur who has an amazing success story to tell, there are countless others who have fallen by the wayside. The going has often been a far cry from the presumed romance of breaking the mould, disrupting the order and changing the world. It is a desire to change the world that drives successful entrepreneurs, for they alone have the blind passion that is often the difference between success and failure, and they are the ones who love the journey more than the destination. Today, when questions are being asked whether the start-up party is nearing its end, whether we will soon see a rerun of the dot com bust of the early noughties, it is time to remember India’s start-up warriors. This is the story of their remarkable journeys. Some found their destination. Some did not.

Growing up with siblings who are also her cousins, witnessing the gruesome abuse of her mother, and watching her father escape from her life without a goodbye, Buruuj Tunsill had an unusual start to say the least. Due to many unanswered questions in her head, she struggled with reading and articulating her thoughts. As she grows and learns more about herself, she becomes more vocal about her feelings, though not in the best way. During her early teenage years, Buruuj develops hostility and overwhelming emotions that are hard for even her to understand. At the age of 15, she begins to lead a self-destructive life-from seeking affection in all the wrong places to taking on more than she can bear. She's searching for something, but she doesn't know what. After many trials and tribulations, she attempts to put the pieces together and find true peace. However, at the age of 18, she suffers from a mental break that lands her in a psychiatric facility for three months, where she is diagnosed with Schizoaffective Disorder. Unfortunately for Tunsill, it doesn't stop there; her journey to serenity has only just begun.
