Man’s Search For Meaning: The classic tribute to hope from the Holocaust
16 MILLION COPIES SOLD
‘A book to read, to cherish, to debate, and one that will ultimately keep the memories of the victims alive’ John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn’t) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest – and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man’s deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.

Endure: Mind, Body and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance
‘This book is AMAZING!’ – MALCOLM GLADWELL
‘If you want to gain insight into the mind of great athletes, adventurers, and peak performers then prepare to be enthralled by Alex Hutchinson’s Endure.’ – BEAR GRYLLS
How high or far or fast can humans go? And what about individual potential: what defines a person’s limits? From running a two-hour marathon to summiting Mount Everest, we’re fascinated by the extremes of human endurance, constantly testing both our physical and psychological limits.
In Endure Alex Hutchinson, Ph.D., reveals why our individual limits may be determined as much by our head and heart, as by our muscles. He presents an overview of science’s search for understanding human fatigue, from crude experiments with electricity and frogs’ legs to sophisticated brain imaging technology. Going beyond the traditional mechanical view of human limits, he instead argues that a key element in endurance is how the brain responds to distress signals―whether heat, or cold, or muscles screaming with lactic acid―and reveals that we can train to improve brain response.
An elite distance runner himself, Hutchinson takes us to the forefront of the new sports psychology – brain electrode jolts, computer-based training, subliminal messaging – and presents startling new discoveries enhancing the performance of athletes today, showing us how anyone can utilize these tactics to bolster their own performance – and get the most out of their bodies.

Things that annoy me by Ruby Brady: Comic diary of a modern teenager dealing with her annoying parents (Ruby Brady Diaries)
** Suitable for Young Adults, Old Adults & Older Teens -NB: contains some swearing **
Ruby Brady is a typical modern teenager, surgically attached to her mobile phone, who is attempting to navigate her way through a social media-dominated world .. and she has plenty to be annoyed about. … She has a mother going through a spiritual awakening, endlessly searching for inner peace whilst counting down the hours to wine o’clock, and endlessly comparing her life to others on the internet. There is her hipster-hating stepdad, who constantly rants about millennials and vegans whilst harbouring delusions of rock stardom. Ruby’s journal follows her day-to-day life over 18 months starting in 2017, in a political landscape defined by Brexit and Trump. She faces the complexities of home life, friendships and school and attempts to understand her embarrassing parents and explain the modern world to her grandparents. A very lighthearted look at modern life in a time of Facebook, Instagram and Reality TV. It follows three generations of a family, as they all try to understand each other’s language use, interests and differences, all seen through the eyes of a teenage girl.Read more

Moral Injury: A Handbook for Military Chaplains
Moral Injury (MI) is a term used to describe a constellation of persistent symptoms that result from transgressing moral and ethical boundaries. This is a condition that often occurs in the setting of severe trauma, affecting the perpetrator, the observer, the victim, or all three. MI involves painful and often disabling emotions that are manifested by psychological, spiritual, and religious symptoms. There is some overlap in symptoms with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which MI often occurs alongside of — yet there is growing evidence that these two conditions are distinct, both of which need treatment. Failure to recognize this may result in protracted and unsuccessful treatments for PTSD.During combat operations Service Members may be involved in killing other human beings, committing violence to others (including de-humanizing or plundering the enemy), witnessing moral transgressions by others (especially by leaders), being placed in morally compromising positions, being the victim or perpetrator of rape or torture, or exposure to severe trauma of other types. These behaviors are often followed either immediately or sometime afterwards by distressing emotions such as guilt, shame, loss of meaning, difficulty trusting, spiritual struggles, and loss of religious faith, symptoms that may lead to or worsen other mental disorders including depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance use disorders, and family/relationship problems. As a result, MI is recognized as one of the five stress outcomes noted in the Consensus Recommendation for Common Data Elements for Operational Stress Research and Surveillance report by the U.S. Armed Forces and Veterans Administration (VA) experts. “Case identification” of MI was one of seven core components of the mental health intervention spectrum noted in that report.
We believe that military chaplains are those best suited to address MI among active-duty Service Members, in terms of prevention, identification, and treatment. In this book, we provide information for military chaplains about the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of MI that will be particularly helpful in preparing them for this critical responsibility. We believe that the readiness of our warriors for combat operations is dependent on the role that military chaplains play in this regard. MORAL INJURY: A HANDBOOK FOR MILITARY CHAPLAINS, extensively referenced and scientifically grounded on the latest research, is designed to equip chaplains with the knowledge and tools that they will need to accomplish this mission.

Mind The Gap: The truth about desire and how to futureproof your sex life
‘This book taught me so much about female desire. A must read!’ Cherry Healey
Did you know that there is an orgasm gap of around 30% between heterosexual couples when they have sex?
In Mind The Gap, Dr Karen Gurney, a clinical psychologist and certified psychosexologist, explores not just this gap, but the gaps in our knowledge of so much of the most important new science around sex and desire.
In this book, you will learn that nearly everything that you’ve been led to believe about female sexuality isn’t actually true. And that, despite what you might think, it is possible to simultaneously feel little to no spontaneous desire and have a happy and mutually satisfying sex life long term.
Exploring the mismatch between ideas about sex in our society and what the science tells us, Mind The Gap also explains how this disconnect lies at the root of many of our sexual problems.
Combining science with case studies, practical exercises and tips, this is a book for anyone who wants to better understand the mechanics of desire and futureproof their sex life, for life.

Attached: Are you Anxious, Avoidant or Secure? How the science of adult attachment can help you find – and keep – love
An insightful look at the science behind love, Attached offers readers a road map for building stronger, more fulfilling connections.
‘A groundbreaking book that redefines what it means to be in a relationship.’ – John Gray, PhD., bestselling author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus
Is there a science to love? In this groundbreaking book, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Amir Levine and psychologist Rachel S. F. Heller reveal how an understanding of attachment theory – the most advanced relationship science in existence today – can help us find and sustain love.
Pioneered by psychologist John Bowlby in the 1950s, the field of attachment explains that each of us behaves in relationships in one of three distinct ways:
Anxious people are often preoccupied with their relationships and tend to worry about their partner’s ability to love them back.
Avoidant people equate intimacy with a loss of independence and constantly try to minimize closeness.
Secure people feel comfortable with intimacy and are usually warm and loving.
With fascinating psychological insight, quizzes and case studies, Dr Amir Levine and Rachel Heller help you understand the three attachment styles, identify your own and recognize the styles of others so that you can find compatible partners or improve your existing relationship.

What if you weren’t sexually attracted to anyone?
A growing number of people are identifying as asexual. They aren’t sexually attracted to anyone, and they consider it a sexual orientationlike gay, straight, or bisexual.
Asexuality is the invisible orientation. Most people believe that everyone” wants sex, that everyone” understands what it means to be attracted to other people, and that everyone” wants to date and mate. But that’s where asexual people are left outthey don’t find other people sexually attractive, and if and when they say so, they are very rarely treated as though that’s okay.
When an asexual person comes out, alarming reactions regularly follow; loved ones fear that an asexual person is sick, or psychologically warped, or suffering from abuse. Critics confront asexual people with accusations of following a fad, hiding homosexuality, or making excuses for romantic failures. And all of this contributes to a discouraging master narrative: there is no such thing as asexual.” Being an asexual person is a lie or an illness, and it needs to be fixed.
In The Invisible Orientation, Julie Sondra Decker outlines what asexuality is, counters misconceptions, provides resources, and puts asexual people’s experiences in context as they move through a very sexualized world. It includes information for asexual people to help understand their orientation and what it means for their relationships, as well as tips and facts for those who want to understand their asexual friends and loved ones.

Street Smart Safety for Women: Your Guide to Defensive Living
In a book written by women for women, Street Smart Safety for Women offers tips on defensive living that will increase readers’ reliance on the one thing that can protect them most: their safety intuition.Violence against women is a global health issue. The threats women face today are unparalleled and more dangerous than ever before. And, for the first time in history, the toxic cocktail of technology and social media has weaponized misogyny and virtualized violence against women.
There’s an even more serious challenge that faces women today. Social conditioning—the way our systems of family life, education, employment, entertainment and pop culture, spirituality and religion influence us— leaves many of us ill-equipped to deal not only with this escalating surge of attacks, but also the unrelenting prevalence of sexual assault, domestic violence, and scams.
Women have been culturally trained to discount one of their greatest protections – safety intuition. As women, it is so ingrained in us to attend to everyone else, including strangers on the street, before we listen to ourselves, that we have lost touch with our innate ability to often detect dangerous situations. As the result, we are left generally defenseless to recognize predators who manipulate our natural compassion, to our own detriment. This inability to listen to ourselves and be persuasion-proof directly affects our personal safety and data shows that attacks on women continue to escalate daily across the world, inside and outside of the home. Though everyone is talking about how women continue to be less safe, few offer solutions. Women are terrified and they are looking for answers.
In Street Smart Safety for Women, retired Deputy Sheriff Joy Farrow and technologist Laura Frombach, herself a survivor of a violent household, draw on their experiences both personal and professional to provide those answers. Dedicated to educating women in personal safety and showing them a defensive living strategy and trusting in themselves can reduce their probability of becoming a victim of a crime.

¿Puedo hablar de mi salud mental! (Spanish Edition)
Dos personas cucú te explican que ir al psicólogo no es ninguna locura.
Desde su exitoso pódcast, ¿Puedo hablar!, Enrique Aparicio (Esnórquel) y Beatriz Cepeda (Perra de Satán) rompen tabúes y tratan con naturalidad cuestiones como la ansiedad, la depresión, los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria o la ideación suicida. El libro ¿Puedo hablar de mi salud mental! es el puente que quieren tender a todas las personas que intuyen que hay algo en su vida que falla, pero no se atreven a pedir ayuda. Su ejemplo, el de dos personas para las que la terapia ha sido fundamental, puede servir de impulso para quienes saben que deben arreglar algo en su cabeza, aunque no sepan bien lo que es.
«Durante mucho tiempo creí que el sufrimiento era intrínseco a la vida, una consecuencia natural de hacerse mayor. En terapia empecé a deshacer el precario castillo de naipes sobre el que había construido mi visión del mundo: descubrí que ser gay y gordo no solo eran dos simpáticas circunstancias, sino partes de mi identidad que me habían expuesto a una serie de violencias que me condicionaban. La ayuda profesional me dado herramientas fundamentales. Por eso quiero que, si crees que la necesitas, acudas a ella cuanto antes».
Enrique Aparicio, Esnórquel«Cuando empecé a engordar mi vida cambió por completo. Pasé de ser una niña sin problemas a una con un problema muy gordo. Nuestra sociedad hace creer a las niñas que engordar es algo muy grave contra lo que deben luchar. Cuando iba al médico y me quejaba de los nervios, ya que no sabía lo que era la ansiedad, le explicaba que sufría ataques, doloresde cabeza muy frecuentes y otros síntomas. La única respuesta que recibía era: Tienes que adelgazar, haz deporte y come menos. Acabé desarrollando un trastorno de la conducta alimentaria. Si he contado mi historia y he escrito este libro es para ponérselo más fácil a otras personas».

Lost Child: The True Story of a Girl who Couldn’t Ask for Help
From Torey Hayden, the number one Sunday Times bestselling author of One Child comes Lost Girl, a poignant and deeply moving account of a lost little girl and an extraordinary educational psychologist’s courage and determination.
Jessie is nine years old and looks like the perfect little girl, with red hair, green eyes and a beguiling smile. She even has a talent for drawing gorgeous and intricate pictures. But Jessie also knows how to get her own way and will lie, scream, shout and hurt to get just exactly what she wants.
Her parents say they can’t take her back, and her social workers struggle to deal with her destructive behaviour and wild mood swings. After her chaotic passage through numerous foster placements, Jessie has finally received a diagnosis of an attachment disorder. Attachment disorders arise when children are deprived of the all-important close bonds with trustworthy adults that allow them to develop emotionally and thrive.
Finally educational psychologist Torey Hayden is called in to help. Torey agrees to weekly meetings with Jessie to try and uncover why she is acting out. Torey’s gentle care and attention reveal shocking truths behind Jessie’s lies. Can Torey and the other social workers help to provide the consistent loving care that has so far been missing in Jessie’s life, or will she push them away too?

The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge
Rethink your view of the world with The Teachings of Don Juan, the first book in Carlos Castaneda’s spiritual journey into the world of sorcery…
The Teachings of don Juan is the story of Carlos Castaneda’s extraordinary experiences.
In 1960 Carlos Castaneda was a graduate student when he met Don Juan, a Yaqui Indian feared and shunned by the ordinary folk of the American Southwest because of his unnatural powers. During the next five years don Juan’s arcana knowledge led Castaneda into a world of beauty and terror, ruled by concepts far beyond those of Western civilisation.
Using medicinal herbs Castaneda lived through encounters with disembodied spirits, shamans in the form of huge wolves, and death in the shape of silver crows. Finally, after a night of utter terror in which he knew that his life was threatened by forces which he still cannot fully explain, he gave up his struggle to become a ‘Man Of Knowledge’.
‘It gives a different view of the world and challenges the ideas and beliefs that we have be taught, whilst also providing simple methods to changing the way we interact with the world on a day to day basis.’ – 5* Reader Review
