We Need to Talk About Love

(originally titled Love Factually)

I've interviewed hundreds of strangers aged 8 to 95 across every continent, asking them to share their most personal stories, feelings and insights about relationships. We Need to Talk About Love combines these conversations with psychology, philosophy and anthropology, and is the perfect read for anyone who is curious about how we think, feel and behave when it comes to love. "Fantastic" (Daily Mail), "Much better and more useful than my film" (Richard Curtis).

Welcome to Our Table

From pasta to passionfruit, baguettes to biryani, ramen to rambutan, Welcome to Our Table travels around the world through food. Find out where our food comes from, what we will be feasting on in the future, and the stories, cultures and traditions behind what we eat. Best children's cookbook (GQ Magazine); "brilliant" (Telegraph), "rewarding reading for everyone who eats" Kirkus (US), winner of Children's Book of the Year: Non-Fiction (The Week Junior).

Please Find Attached

I've spent four years following seven brave people as they talk candidly about their upbringings, their loves and their losses and undergo formal assessments into their relationship patterns. As we delve deep into their lives, I explain Attachment Theory, the most well–researched relationship science, and how it can make sense of our lives. "An illuminating new book about attachment theory" (The Daily Mail).
