Hidden Valley - Paul Richardson

''A beguiling book about a lifestyle that many of us dream about'' Daily MailPaul Richardson fled the city to live on the land in a rough-and-tumble village on the edge of Europe. Immersing himself in the culture of his remote Spanish community, he learned the traditional arts of animal husbandry and vegetable growing, wine-making and home distilling, and made bread from the rye he sowed on the stone-walled terraces of his twelve-acre farm. In Richardson''s hands, off-grid living both becomes an act of rebellion and a heartening proof that a simpler, better life is possible, if only we can remove ourselves from the ethos in which conspicuous consumption is a duty and success/failure the wheel on which society turns. Hidden Valley is a glorious narrative of one man''s journey towards self-reliance. Original and thought-provoking, it is also hugely entertaining.

All is Well, the new book by celebrated authors Louise Hay and Mona Lisa Schulz, not only explores the medical science behind the affirmations in Louise Hay''s international bestseller You Can Heal Your Life, but also offers stories and practical advice for personal healing. Structured around seven emotional centres, which mirror our chakra system, Louise and Mona Lisa examine the connections between these centres and the body. Drawing on years of research, they explore probable mental causes for the physical manifestation of illness associated with each centre, and then lay out how to address these health concerns. Combining two complementary systems, Louise discusses new thought patterns and offers new affirmations to counteract specific emotional weaknesses, and Mona Lisa, who has worked for many years as a medical intuitive and physician, helps readers listen to their own bodies'' intuition and prescribes medical solutions that are based in Western science. They provide real-world examples of people who faced illness and outline the specific emotional and physical prescriptions that helped them heal.

Paul of Dune - Kevin James Anderson, Brian Herbert

Between the end of Frank Herbert''s Dune and his next novel Dune Messiah lies a mystery: how a hero adored by a planet became a tyrant hated by a universe. Paul of Dune begins the story of those twelve fateful years and the wars of the jihad of Paul Muad''Dib. It is an epic of battle and betrayal; of love and idealism; of ambition and intrigue. Above all, it is the story of how Paul Atreides - who achieved absolute power when scarcely more than a boy - changes from an idealist into a dictator who is the prisoner of the bureaucrats and fanatics who surround him. Have you read Dune? And have you read Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson''s novels continuing the story? The latest are Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune.

Eric Clapton "Motherless Child" - Biografie - Paul Scott

Biografie Motherless Child vykresluje Erika Claptona jako jednoho z nejvlivnějších umělců své generace, živoucí hudební legendu a jednoho z nejlepších kytaristů všech dob. Obsahuje dosud nepublikované detaily z jeho komplikovaného, ale fascinujícího života posbírané od blízkých přátel a spolupracovníků. . Kniha sleduje Claptonovu více než padesátiletou kariéru od začátků ve skupině Yardbirds, přes spolupráci s Johnem Mayallem, slávu superskupiny Cream, kapel Blind Faith a Derek and the Dominos až po sólovou kariéru. . Clapton se vždy viděl jako osamělý hráč blues, muž s kytarou proti celému světu. Blues pro něj zůstávalo konstantou, jádrem, ze kterého vycházel. Právě on byl vyvolený pokračovat v tradici hudby starých bluesmanů z delty Mississippi. . Paul Scott se zaměřuje také na Claptonův soukromý život, kde se jeho mimořádný talent prolínal s nepochopitelnou sebedestrukcí. Nikdy se netajil problémy s drogami a alkoholem, ani svým bohémským životem, který ho několikrát zavedl až na hranu smrti. . Bez občasných osobních pádů by ale nikdy nemohl vystoupat na hudební olymp a získat si uznání milionů fanoušků po celém světě. Jeho příběh lze tedy také číst jako dlouhou, ale úspěšnou cestu ke střízlivosti, vykoupení a konečně i ke štěstí. .

How to Teach Psychology: An evidence-informed approach - Mike Hobbiss, Paul Cline

Psychology as a subject is more popular in secondary schools than ever before, but achieving deep insights into, and appreciation of, the complexity of human behaviour is a challenge that requires expert guidance and teaching. In addition to teaching the often demanding subject content on their specifications, Psychology teachers must also be experts in inculcating mathematical skills and written communication. All this in students who often start without any prior experience of the subject. This poses serious challenges for teachers'' subject knowledge, pedagogy and planning. And yet, until now, little has been written about how to teach Psychology effectively. This book aims to help anyone facing that challenge. Drawing on a wealth of psychological and pedagogical insights, coupled with years of teaching experience, Paul Cline and Mike Hobbiss provide practical advice and concrete suggestions to support Psychology teachers at all levels. From curriculum choices to the minutiae of in-class decisions, from developing as an individual teacher to leading a Psychology department, this book provides the complete, evidence-informed guide to teaching Psychology.

Pamela - Samuel Richardson

Samuel Richardson''s Pamela is a captivating story of one young woman''s rebellion against the social order, edited by Peter Sabor with an introduction by Margaret A. Doody in Penguin Classics.Fifteen-year-old Pamela Andrews, alone in the world, is pursued by her dead mistress''s son. Although she is attracted to Mr B, she holds out against his demands and threats of abduction and rape, determined to protect her virginity and abide by her moral standards. Psychologically acute in its explorations of sex, freedom and power, Richardson''s first novel caused a sensation when it was published, with its depiction of a servant heroine who dares to assert herself. Richly comic and full of lively scenes and descriptions, Pamela contains a diverse cast of characters ranging from the vulgar and malevolent Mrs Jewkes to the aggressive but awkward country squire who serves this unusual love story as both its villain and hero.In her introduction, Margaret Ann Doody discusses the epistolary genre of novels and examines the role of women and class differences. This edition, based on the 1801 text and incorporating corrections made in 1810, makes Richardson''s final version of the two-volume generally available for the first time.Samuel Richardson (1689-1761) was born in Derbyshire, ...

The Stray Dog Cabaret - Translated By Paul Schmid

A New York Review Books OriginalA master anthology of Russia’s most important poetry, newly collected and never before published in EnglishIn the years before the 1917 Russian Revolution, the Stray Dog cabaret in St. Petersburg was the haunt of poets, artists, and musicians, a place to meet, drink, read, brawl, celebrate, and stage performances of all kinds. It has since become a symbol of the extraordinary literary ferment of that time. It was then that Alexander Blok composed his apocalyptic sequence “Twelve”; that the futurists Velimir Khlebnikov and Vladimir Mayakovsky exploded language into bold new forms; that the lapidary lyrics of Osip Mandelstam and plangent love poems of Anna Akhmatova saw the light; that the electrifying Marina Tsvetaeva stunned and dazzled everyone. Boris Pasternak was also of this company, putting together his great youthful hymn to nature, My Sister, Life. It was a transforming moment—not just for Russian but for world poetry—and a short-lived one. Within little more than a decade, revolution and terror were to disperse, silence, and destroy almost all the poets of the Stray Dog cabaret.

The Raj Quartet - Vol 2 - Paul Scott

Paul Scott's epic study of British India in its final years has no equal. Tolstoyan in scope and Proustian in detail but completely individual in effect, it records the encounter between East and West through the experiences of a dozen people caught up in the upheavals of the Second World War and the growing campaign for Indian independence. Book one, The Jewel in the Crown, describes the doomed love between an English girl and an Indian boy, Daphne Manners and Hari Kumar.This affair touches the lives of other characters in three subsequent books, most of them unknown to Hari and Daphne but involved in the larger social and political conflicts which destroy the lovers. On occasions unsparing in its study of personal dramas and racial differences, the Raj Quartet is at all times profoundly humane, not least in the author's capacity to identify with a huge range of characters. It is also illuminated by delicate social comedy and wonderful evocations of the Indian scene, all narrated in luminous prose.

Where the Seals Sing - Susan Richardson

There are fewer grey seals in the world than endangered African elephants, but the British Isles host almost half of this global population. Every year these charismatic animals, with their expressive eyes and whiskers more sensitive than our fingertips, haul out on our shores to breed and raise their pups.As graceful in the sea as they might seem clumsy on land, grey seals have visited our shores and enriched our culture for centuries. Yet we still know relatively little about these captivating animals. As Susan Richardson journeys to the crags and crevices of the coast, she explores the mysteries and mythologies of seals, learning not just how they live but also how we ought to live with them.PRAISE FOR SUSAN RICHARDSON‘Cut and precise, archaic and innovative, transcendent and in-the-moment, [Richardson] sees the life of the sea as a mirror of ourselves, and vice versa: always changing, always the same … Vital, glorious and salutary’PHILIP HOARE, AUTHOR OF LEVIATHAN‘[Richardson] writes in prehensile language, capable of grasping something vast, ancient, chthonic: the Earth in must’JAY GRIFFITHS, AUTHOR OF WILD‘Richardson beautifully marries the landscape of the polar regions with their – and her own – emotional topography’SARA WHEELERSusan Richardson has always been entranced ...

Evidence of the Afterlife - Long Jeffrey, Paul Perry

“There is currently more scientific evidence to the reality of near death experience (NDE) than there is for how to effectively treat certain forms of cancer,” states radiation oncologist Dr. Jeffrey Long is his groundbreaking new book Evidence of the Afterlife. In 1998 Dr. Long and his wife, Jody, began the Near Death Experience Research Foundation with the goal of creating a forum for near death “experiencers” to share their stories. Grounded in first-hand evidence culled from over 1,600 verified NDE accounts, Evidence of the Afterlife presents the strongest argument yet for the underlying truth of those who have died and returned to share their tales.
