Descirption: John "Lofty" Wiseman is the author of the bestselling SAS Survival
Handbook, the definitive guide to survival in the wild from
Britain's Special Air Service. Now he has compiled the complete
guide to surviving among crowds of people, the mazes of office
buildings, the dangers of an unfeeling city-put simply, how to stay
safe in the urban jungle.
Thousands of preventable fatalities occur in the home every year-
more than on the roads, more than in the great outdoors. Household
chemicals, electricity, cooking knives, and rodent poisons-in the
wrong hands and with improper usage, these day-to-day resources
bring danger to your home. Add to this the risks of moving through
city streets (the threat of bang, muggings, and gang violence) and
the menace of natural disasters (floods, earthquakes, blizzards) that
cannot be avoided. Every day serves as a constant reminder: The
world is truly a frightening place.
The SAS Urban...

Descirption: Once seen as a niche practice, the craft of weathering has now become firmly rooted in the railway modelling mainstream. Not simply a means of rendering models in layers of dirty paint, weathering involves a myriad of techniques aimed at improving realism, including distinctive surface textures, highlights and shading, burnishing and peeling paint finishes. The weathering process brings out the best in a model, making moulded relief or a lustrous livery really stand out. As well as replicating the real world more closely, weathering also helps a model to look at home within a scenic setting. Aimed at modellers of all abilities and eras, this book is an essential guide to creating the most realistic locomotives and rolling stock in any scale. It includes: a guide to tools, paints, washes, dry pigments and other innovative media; the correct techniques for model preparation; a wide range of techniques for wagons, carriages, locomotives and multiple units in any scale; how to...

Descirption: Based on a true story and told with the pacing, humor, and thrills of a Mediterranean mystery, Andrea Camilleri's new novel tells of a turn-of-the-century Sicilian scandal that revealed a tendency that is with us still: the refusal to accept the truth. The lawyer and journalist Matteo Teresi discovers the existence of a secret sect whose members include priests, politicians, and regional VIPs. During the early morning hours, when the town's churches are closed, the "Sect of the Angels" meets in the sacristy to carry out their holy office: initiating devout virgins into the rites of married life. Preying on their victims' naivete, the hooded "elect" commit ignominious acts while promising the young women divine grace. In 1901, at a time of immense changes in Sicilian society, the scandal breaks nationwide. But far from being hailed as a hero, Teresi is accused of disrupting the status quo and irrationally blamed for an outbreak of disease and a series of calamities....

Descirption: A riveting mystery that introduces a bold and audacious rookie detective assigned to hunt for a killer who is haunted by the past in this gripping murder case.
Natalie Lockhart always knew she was going to be a cop. A rookie detective on the Burning Lake security officer force, she was raised on the wisdom of her chief-of-security officer father. These cases will haunt you if you let them. Grief doesn't come with instructions.
But the one thing her father couldn't teach her was how to handle loss. Natalie's beloved sister was viciously murdered as a teenager, and she carries the scars deep in her heart. Although the killer was locked up, the trace evidence never added up, and Natalie can't help wondering―is the past really behind her?
As the newest member on the force, Natalie is tasked with finding nine missing persons who've vanished off the face of the earth, dubbed "the Missing Nine." One night, while following up on a new lead, she comes across a savage crime that will change everything.
Daisy Buckner―a popular collegeteacher, wife to a cop, and newly pregnant―lies dead on her kitchen floor. As Natalie hunts for Daisy's killer in the wake of the town's shock, her search leads to a string of strange clues―about the Missing Nine, about Daisy's secret life, and reviving fresh doubts about her sister's murder.
As the investigation deepens, Natalie's every move risks far-reaching consequences―for the victims, for the town of Burning Lake, and for herself.

Descirption: When you stop trying to do so much, you get so much more done
Do you put yourself under too much pressure to succeed, which only makes it harder to achieve? Are you constantly playing catch-up and struggling to find time for the things, and people, you love?
It doesn't have to be this way. Anything is possible when you stop trying to do everything at the same time.
Often it's fear that keeps us stuck in our patterns. If we're super busy then no one can say we're not working hard. But there's another way to live a life that's both more enjoyable and more productive, if only we can break those routines.
In Do Less, Get More, entrepreneur and bestselling author Shaa Wasmund reveals that when we embrace a "less is more" attitude, we can appreciate all the good things we already have and find the courage to prune the nonessentials. And then we can find the space in which to pursue exciting new opportunities.
Wasmund teaches us how to become experts in the...

Descirption: Combining the ancient Indian spiritual tradition of Vedanta with modern principles of psychology and neuroscience, an acclaimed teacher offers new tools for harnessing and increasing our life energy to enhance every aspect of our lives.
This book explores the fundamental concept of prana, or "life energy," from the perspective of the ancient Indian spiritual tradition of Vedanta. As the ancient sages described it, this fundamental force is what gives us life and keeps us alive. It's physical, creative, mental, emotional, and sexual energy, it's the "get up and go," it's physical vitality as well as star power and mojo. Since ancient times, it's been known that harnessing this fundamental energy of life itself is the key to thriving. In this book, Rajshree Patel explores what this energy is, how to enhance it, and how it gets drained (spoiler: the biggest energy hog of all is your own mind!).
The book market is saturated with guides to living a better life using...

Descirption: <a href="https://.goodreads.com/book/show/48931133-before-and-after"><span style="color: #6cb4ee">Before and After</a>
The compelling, poignant true stories of victims of a notorious adoption scandal--some of whom learned the truth from Lisa Wingate's bestselling novel <span style="font-weight: 600; font-style: italic">Before We Were Yours and were reunited with birth family members as a result of its wide reach
From the 1920s to 1950, Georgia Tann ran a black-market baby business at the Tennessee Children's Home Society in Memphis. She offered up more than 5,000 orphans tailored to the wish lists of eager parents--hiding the fact that many weren't orphans at all, but stolen sons and daughters of poor families, desperate single mothers, and women told in maternity wards that their babies had died.
The publication of Lisa Wingate's novel Before We Were Yours brought new awareness of Tann's lucrative career in child trafficking. Adoptees who knew little about their pasts gained insight into the startling facts behind their family histories. Encouraged by their contact with Wingate and award-winning journalist Judy Christie, who documented the stories of fifteen adoptees in this book, many determined Tann survivors set out to trace their roots and find their birth families.
Before and After includes moving and sometimes shocking accounts of the ways in which adoptees were separated from their first families. Often raised as only children, many have joyfully reunited with siblings in the final decades of their lives. Christie and Wingate tell of first meetings that are all the sweeter and more intense for time missed and of families from very different social backgrounds reaching out to embrace better-late-than-never brothers, sisters, and cousins. In a poignant culmination of art meeting life, many of the long-silent victims of the tragically corrupt system return to Memphis with the authors to reclaim their stories at a Tennessee Children's Home Society reunion . . . with extraordinary results.

Descirption: Drawing on extensive social psychology research, and the author's training and clinical experience in Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, The Anxiety Toolkit offers actionable strategies that anyone can use to manage their anxiety-both personal and professional.
Anxious people often think a great deal about why they think and behave the way they do. They seek self-improvement information yet often get stuck in applying it. They read popular self-help books for anxiety, but these books are highly simplified, to the extent readers can't make the leap from the examples in the books to their more complex real world problems. They turn to business books because they're motivated to achieve greater success, but since these books don't address the reasons anxious people get stuck, they're not especially helpful.
The Anxiety Toolkit provides the information anxious people look for but can't find. It dra on extensive social psychology research, and...

Descirption: What aspects of your life do you really control? What do you do when you cannot guarantee that things will turn out in your favour? And what can Stoicism teach us about how to live together?
In the past few years, Stoicism has been making a comeback. From online groups to Stoicism badges and how-to guides, this philosophical movement is gaining more followers. But what exactly did the Stoics believe and how did they live their lives? In Lessons in Stoicism, philosopher John Sellars weaves together the key ideas of the three great Roman Stoics - Seneca, Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius - with snapshots of their fascinating lives.
In vivid prose, Sellars sho how the works of these three Stoics have inspired readers ever since, speaking as they do to some of the perennial issues that face anyone trying to navigate their way through life. Their works, fundamentally, are about how to live - how to understand one's place in the world, how to cope when things...
