  • Louise Hay's goal was to see that all women experience self-love, self-worth, self-esteem, personal and professional success and a powerful place in society. In her warm and forthright manner, she offered penetrating insights on how women of all ages and backgrounds could achieve this goal and make the coming years productive, fulfilling and empowering.  Warning: Louise Hay's books are not for the faint-hearted or those looking for a 'quick-fix.'
  • The book that inspired the TV series Philosophy:  A Guide To Happiness - and a book that takes the discipline of logic and mind back to its roots. Drawing inspiration from six of the finest minds in history - Socrates, Epicurus, Seneca, Montaigne, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche - he addresses lack of money, unpopularity, the pain of love, inadequacy, anxiety and conformity.
  • Dreams have a power that can be used to shape your life, your relationships and help you understand yourself.  Even if you believe that you never dream or that some dreams don;t make sense, you can learn how to recall your dreams and their symbology, step by step, to discover exactly what they mean to you. Many dream interpretation books are general; but Helen McLean, as an experienced Gestalt practitioner, knows  that dreams and their meaning are personal to the dreamer and that symbols differ radically from dreamer to dreamer.
  • Since Nostradamus' predictions first appeared in the sixteenth century, his reputation as the world's most renowned scholar and seer has grown and continues to grow. Many of his prophecies have come true with startling accuracy; the Great Fire of London, the rise of Hitler, the execution of Charles 1, the Vietnam war and more; others are more obscure and seem to have not yet been fulfilled. Cheetham is regarded as being the foremost authority on Nostradamus and made his prophecies her life work; continually re-reading, studying and reviewing, offering different possible interpretations of the hundreds of quatrains, all of which were written in code and in four different languages.
  • Freddie inhabits a body that is very hard to control and is unable to speak until he leaves the physical world and finds himself on the Lavender Cloud. Here, his wise guide Nicholas helps him to make sense of his experiences and introduces him to other children who have experienced the difficulties of living with cerebral palsy. They come from all countries and cultures on Earth; their stories encompass differences in customs, treatments, institutions and homes. Intertwined with these stories, Malu, a physiotherapist, provides a manual of care for the parents, carers and teachers who work with children with disabilities. Cerebral palsy is explained, exercises and equipment are suggested and skills are described.
  • It's not easy when a marriage ends and you find yourself coping with more of your own company than ever before. But as popular columnist Helen Brown puts it, it's a matter of learning to love that face in the mirror and finding some redeeming feature about yourself. It's a time for finishing some things - and starting others. This is a work about adjusting to personal change, settling some of the differences between men and women, dealing with materialism and learning that there's  still loads of laughs in the world.
  • From this making of the world, to Ragnarok - the last Great Battle - Green tells the story in one continuous narrative taken from the myths of the Northmen. From the ice and snow of the past comes the tale of  how, in the beginning, there was only the Yawning Void,  called Ginnungagap: but deep in the Void lay the Well of Life. Over the ages ice formed over the Well, and out of it came  Ymir, the father of the   Frost Giants. Ymir was fed on the milk of a magic cow who licked the ice, and with it salt from the Well of Life to form Buri, the first of the  Ǣsir. Buri had a son, Borr,  whowas the father of Odin. Odin and his brothers overcame the ice and the Ymir, thrusting them down into the Yawning Void. They set the sea in a ring about the world, and planted the World Tree, the Ash Yggdrasill, to hold it in place. These stories are taken directly from the Norse eddas and include tales of Loki the mischief maker, Freya, Geirrodur the Troll King and much more. Illustrated by Brian Wildsmith.
