Have you struggled to
shift those extra pounds
that would make your
little black dress fit
that much better? Are you
tired of Friday nights in
on your own with only a
tub of ice cream and your
duvet for company? Do you
feel trapped in your
current job, weary and
unchallenged?
Ursula
James, established
author and television
personality, is here to
help you get what
you want out of
life. In this ground
breaking book she has
distilled the essence of
hypnosis for change.
Ursula reveals how you
too can find the strength
within you to unleash
your inner dreams and
change your whole
attitude to life. Through
simple and easy to follow
exercises, never before
has it been so
straightforward to
reasses your life and
change it for the better.
It's safe, it's easy and
it works. And with an
accompanying audio CD,
Ursula helps you to
really make a difference
whatever the time of day.
Ursula herself is
living proof that self
hypnosis does
exactly what is says on
the tin. She was trapped
in a role with a life
that had ground to a
halt. She was lonely,
stressed and permanently
tired. Finally, after
teaching hypnosis to
other people for the past
ten years, Ursula
decided to practice what
she preached. Instead of
becoming resentful of
their success, and
getting more and more
frustrated at her own
lack of progress, she
created a system of a new
life through self
hypnosis and used it on
herself, turning her
life around completely.
Now her life has been
transformed; she has a
beautiful mews house in
central London, a home
in France with its own
lake and is engaged to a
wonderful man.
With Ursula's
help, you too can get
the life you've always

In this third and final
volume John Bowlby
completes the trilogy
Attachment and Loss, his
much acclaimed work on
the importance of the
parental relationship to
mental health. Here he
examines the ways in
which young children
respond to a temporary of
permenant loss of a
mother-figure and the
expression of anxiety,
grief and mourning which
accompany such loss. The
theories presented differ
in many ways from those
advanced by Freud and
elaborated by his
followers, so much so
that the frame of
reference now offered for
understanding personality
developement and
psychopathology amounts
to a new paradigm.

People spend a fortune on
their bodies, their
faces, their hair,
their clothes. Cosmetics,
plastic surgery, diets,
gym membership -
everyone's trying to be
more attractive. But
there's an easier way to
become a beautiful
person. It doesn't have
to be physical. No matter
how you look, if you
have a mind that's
fascinating, creative,
exciting - if you're a
good thinker - you can be
beautiful.
And
being attractive doesn't
necessarily come from
being intelligent or
highly-educated. It isn't
about having a great
personality. It's about
using your imagination
and expanding your
creativity. And it's when
talking with people that
we make the greatest
impact. A person may be
physically beautiful,
but when speaking to
others a dull or ugly or
uncreative mind will
definitely turn them
off.
In clear,
practical language, de
Bono shows how by
applying lateral and
parallel thinking skills
to your conversation you
can improve your mind. By
learning how to listen,
make a point, and
manoeuvre a discussion,
you can become creative
and more appealing - more
beautiful.

Everybody wants to be
creative. Creativity
makes life more fun,
more interesting and more
full of achievement, but
too many people believe
that creativity is
something you are born
with and cannot be
learned.
In How
to Have Creative
Ideas Edward de Bono
- the leading authority
on creative thinking -
outlines 62 different
games and exercises,
built around random words
chosen from a list, to
help encourage creativity
and lateral thinking. For
example, if the task
were to provide an idea
for a new restaurant and
the random word chosen
was 'cloak', ideas
generated might be: a
highwayman theme; a
Venetian theme with
gondolas; masked waiters
and waitresses. Or, if
asked to make a
connection between the
two random words 'desk'
and 'shorts', readers
may come up with: both
are functional; desks
have 'knee holes' and
shorts expose the knees;
traditionally they were
both male-associated
items.
All the
exercises are simple,
practical and fun, and
can be done by
anyone.

everyone's trying to be
more attractive. But
there's an easier way to
become a beautiful
person. It doesn't have
to be physical. No matter
how you look, if you
have a mind that's
fascinating, creative,
exciting - if you're a
good thinker - you can be
beautiful.
And
being attractive doesn't
necessarily come from
being intelligent or
highly-educated. It isn't
about having a great
personality. It's about
using your imagination
and expanding your
creativity. And it's when
talking with people that
we make the greatest
impact. A person may be
physically beautiful,
but when speaking to
others a dull or ugly or
uncreative mind will
definitely turn them
off.
In clear,
practical language, de
Bono shows how by
applying lateral and
parallel thinking skills
to your conversation you
can improve your mind. By
learning how to listen,
make a point, and
manoeuvre a discussion,
you can become creative
and more appealing - more
beautiful.

For some people, a
disagreement with a loved
one is a catastrophe, a
sign that a relationship
must surely be over, for
others a heated
discussion is a way of
letting off steam, a way
of ensuring that passion
is kept alive. But what
is 'normal' communication
for couples? How can you
get past the raised
voices or silent
disapproval, to listen
and understand what is
really being said by your
partner? Relationships
change over time, and
the way we communicate
does too. This practical,
readable and sometimes
humorous book, based on
over 60 years cumulative
experience from Relate,
the marriage guidance
experts, will help
couples to break free of
old patterns of behaviour
and avoid using words as
weapons when the going
gets tough. It will help
encourage upfront
discussion rather than
resorting to nagging,
and will give you the
skills you need to
understand what your
partner is really trying
to say to you - to bring
discussion rather than
confrontation back into
your relationships.

Fred knocked on his door,
introduced himself and
welcomed him to the

asked Sanborn about

his mail handled while he
was away. Needless to

more about his job and

Fred's answers inspired
him to develop

and practise
that:--Everyone can make

built on good
relationships--You must

anything--You can

meditating on what a

have been like;
*
Cooking eggs in nothing

* Making

*
Exploring the outer
limits of apple cusine
(i.e. the outer limit is
making leather out of
apples);
* 'Cooking

we didn't have access to
wheat, what could we
make with nuts?

'The morning after John's
death, I remember
feeling absolutely
enraged that the world
had kept turning and the
sun had come up as if
nothing had
happened.'
Lindsay
Nicholson and her
husband, the
Observer
journalist John Merritt,
were regarded as a golden
couple. But their world
was turned upside down
when John contracted
leukaemia. His death at
the age of 35 left
Nicholson bereft with
grief, now the single
parent of two beautiful
daughters. Then, in a
tragic twist of fate,
her elder daughter Ellie
also contracted the same
disease, dying shortly
after.
Nicholson
found that the stages of
grief - shock, denial,
deep despair and
depression - although
well documented, did not
progress in an orderly
manner, nor could
anything prepare her for
the emotions she was
feeling. In this
courageous and inspiring
book, Lindsay Nicholson
looks at the grieving
process and offers a
roadmap to help all of us
navigate a path none of
us chooses but all of us
must
walk.

Contrary to popular
belief, there is no
research that supports
the current mainstream
view that babies should
be weaned by being
spoon-fed purées.
Self-feeding allows
babies to use their
natural abilities to
explore taste, texture,
colour and smell. It
encourages independence
and confidence by
allowing them to

The pitch is the absolute
essence of modern
business. Ideas are the
most valuable commodity
in the modern economy and
it is human skill which
develops them. In
pitching for new
business, ideas and
emotional intelligence
dominate. However the
skills of the pitch are
not only relevant to the
world of business,
rather they apply to just
about every significant
personal transaction in
your
life...
Life's a
Pitch is the ultimate
how-to book - a mixture
of mechanics and magic.
Nothing like it has been
written before. A mixture
of mentoring, graphics,
anthropology, market
research and modern
Machiavellianism, this
book will prepare you for
success. So whether at a
sales conference in
corporate conference room
hell or over lunch at a
glamourous restaurant,
Life's a Pitch tells you
how to handle human
transactions. A pitch is
not a meeting, it's a
drama. A pitch is not
about transferring
information, it's about
transferring power. It is
business, but it is also
theatre. And the results
of a successful pitch are
- quite simply but rather
persuasively - money and
power.
Part
inspirational manual for
business, part guidebook
to a successful and happy
social life, Life's a
Pitch is written as the
result of an accumulated
half century of (mostly
successful) pitching by
the authors.
Ground-breaking and
genre-busting, it will
transform the way you
think about the art of
persuasion for
ever.

Whatever our background,
culture or race, what
rewards us most
powerfully and
consistently are the most
deceptively simple
abilities of all: the
ability to be kind, to
live enthusiastically and
creatively, to
appreciate and understand
experiences different
from our own, and to
sustain a sense of inner
stability and trust even
in unwelcome and
difficult situations.
These are the abilities
that, bit by bit,
moment by moment, choice
by choice, create a life
of happiness. But however
'simple' these abilities
may be, they are
frequently elusive - even
in the face of our best
intentions. We need
guidance and
encouragement, many of
us, in finding our way
back to these abilities,
looking at them freshly,
and valuing them by
learning how to live
them.
We are also
rewarded when we know how
our minds work, how our
thoughts and attitudes
drive our emotions,
reactions and behaviour,
and how our values and
presence (not our status)
affect and even shape the
world around
us.
Focusing on
strengths and
opportunities rather than
problems, Choosing
Happiness is a book
that tells readers what
they need to know in
order to enjoy life, to
feel in charge of it, to
get on with others and to
make the most of their
opportunities. In short,
how to live life to the
full and find
happiness.
