A story of loss and discovery which is part memoir and part travelogue. In the wake of losing his wife Mary the author accepted an unexpected invitation to travel to Colombia. This became both a journey through the Colombian Andes and also one through the stages of bereavement. How does a person mourn when their leading emotion is relief? After being trapped by circumstances into caring for, in isolation, a complex and reclusive partner, the author was released by her death but only into disorientation. The chance offer from an old acquaintance led to an exotic travel experience, and a culture and landscape so stunning that everything had to be brought into a different perspective. This frank and poignant memoir will appeal to people who enjoy reflective travel literature, to those who have had ‘complex’ bereavements, people interested in the reflections and choices of later life, It is for those who are drawn to lose and find themselves through travel to exotic locations. Within the travel book genre, it is the first book of reflective travel writing about Colombia in the round: previous books have concentrated on narco-crime in the region.

From New York Times-bestselling, three-time National Book Award finalist Gail Godwin, a consideration of what makes for a life well lived—for readers of Oliver Sacks’s Gratitude and Deborah Levy’s Cost of Living.I can''t see a way out of this. Things will not necessarily get better. This is my life, but I may not get to do what I want in it.Ingmar Bergman once said that an artist should always have one work between himself and death. When renowned author Gail Godwin tripped and broke her neck while watering the dogwood tree in her garden at age eighty-five, a lifetime of writing and publishing behind her and a half-finished novel in tow, Bergman’s idea quickly unfurled in front of her, forcing her to confront a creative life interrupted. In Getting to Know Death, Godwin shares what spoke to her while in a desperate place. Remembering those she has loved and survived, including a brother and father lost to suicide, and finding meaning in the encounters she has with other patients as she heals, she takes stock of a life toward the end of its long graceful arc, finding her path through the words she has written and the people she has ...

If you are going to care for someone, you must first understand them. If you're going to hire, marry, or befriend someone, you have to be able to see them. If you are going to work closely with someone, you have to be able to make them feel recognized and valued.As David Brooks observes, "The older I get, the more I come to the certainty that there is one skill at the center of any healthy family, company, classroom, community or nation: the ability to see each other, to know other people, to make them feel valued, heard and understood."And yet we humans don't do this well. All around us are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us to do better, posing questions that are essential for all of us.Driven by his trademark sense of curiosity, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience, and from the worlds of theatre, history, and education, to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more understanding and considerate towards others; it helps readers find the joy that comes from being seen. ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Drawing on a wide body of research, including extensive in-depth interviews, THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO KNOW reveals the central insights that lie at the core of: Great Managing, Great Leadership and Great Careers. Buckingham uses a wealth of relevant examples to reveal that at the heart of each insight lies a controlling insight. Lose sight of this ''one thing'' and all of your best efforts at managing, leading, or individual achievement will be diminished. For great managing, the controlling insight has less to do with fairness, or team building, or clear expectations (although all are important). Rather, the one thing great managers know is the need to discover and then capitalize on what is unique about each person. For leadership, the controlling insight is the opposite - discover and capitalize on what is universal to all your people, regardless of differences in personality, race, sex, or age. For sustained individual success, the controlling insight is the need to discover what you don''t like doing, and know how and when to stop doing it. In every way a groundbreaking work, THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO KNOW offers crucial performance and career lessons for business people at every level.

''A very insightful book, with tips and ideas useful for all parents'' - Manon LagreveLong before they can speak, our babies are brilliant communicators. They tell us - with their eyes and mouths, their little arms and legs, and all their funny noises - just how they feel and what they need. All we have to do as parents is listen. For child psychotherapist and mother of four Marie Derome, parenting is not about imposing ''rules'' on our babies. Rather, it is about being attentive, curious and ready to discover who our babies are so we can truly get to know them. Drawing on her clinical practice, alongside the latest neuroscientific findings, Marie shows us how to strengthen the bond we have with our babies in a new and empowering way. She also offers helpful insights to get us back on track when we feel exhausted and overwhelmed, and when loving our babies is not so easy. In What Your Baby Wants You to Know, Marie shows us how to nurture a loving connection with our babies so that they can grow happy and resilient and we can become the confident, responsive parents we always hoped to be.
