About the Author
From The Back Cover
"I read the first couple of pages and was hooked! Readers learn how making small life changes will help them make the most of university to accelerate their journey to success. Most importantly, Racing Towards Excellence teaches how to achieve the work-life balance resulting in excellence and happiness in all facets of life. This book should be mandatory reading for all students and graduates pre, during and post university."
-- Hermione Way, 23, entrepreneur and journalist, named as one of Spectator Business's Stars of Tomorrow
"Racing Towards Excellence provides a compelling, holistic framework for how to become an elite performer. As an ambitious student or recent graduate, you cannot afford to miss this book."
-- Kieran O'Neill, serial entrepreneur who sold his first company for $1.25 million aged 19
"Racing Towards Excellence makes essential reading for anyone stepping out into the big wide world. Specifically targeting students and recent graduates, the book sets out a path to outperformance and happiness, and discusses in depth the inextricable link between the two. My only lament is that this advice was not available many moons ago when I left university!"
-- Chris Howland, CEO and Senior Partner, Mount Row Capital, Previously Managing Director, Morgan Stanley
"I genuinely believe that it is required reading for anyone over 17 and I will ensure my children read this book when the time comes. I particularly enjoyed the range of skills covered. As a governor of an independent school I would be delighted to promote the book to the Sixth Form."
-- Chris Wightman, Chairman of Puricore Plc, Previously Managing Director, Nations Bank
"I wish I had read this book when I was 17, and again at 19 and again at 24! This is not just a book about outperforming in your career. It truly does tell you how to outperform in life, and following its advice will make you happier. Congratulations to Jan and Muzaffar on an outstanding book. Buy it for any young person whose future you care about."
-- Peter Harrison, CEO HarrisonCareers.com, Previously Executive Director, Goldman Sachs

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to ThriftBooks-Dallas, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
