Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When a beloved mystery author's visit causes a stir in their small Mississippi town, librarian Charlie Harris and his cat Diesel must outwit a fiction fanatic turned real-life killer. It's National Library Week, and the Athena Public Library is planning an exhibit to honor the centenary of famous novelist Electra Barnes Cartwright-creator of the beloved Veronica Thane series. Charlie has a soft spot for Cartwright's girl detective stories (not to mention an extensive collection of her books!). When the author agrees to make a rare public appearance, the news of her whereabouts goes viral overnight, and series devotees and book collectors converge on Athena. After all, it's rumored that Cartwright penned Veronica Thane stories that remain under wraps, and one rabid fan will stop at nothing-not even murder-to get hold of the rare books. 320 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - You already know how to give your children healthy food, but the hard part is getting them to eat it. After years of research and working with parents, Dina Rose discovered a powerful truth: when parents focus solely on nutrition, their kids - surprisingly - eat poorly. But when families shift their emphasis to behaviors - the skills and habits kids are taught - they learn to eat right. Every child can learn to eat well, but only if you show them how to do it. Dr. Rose describes the three habits - proportion, variety, and moderation - all kids need to learn, and gives you clever, practical ways to teach these food skills. With It's Not About The Broccoli you can teach your children how to eat and give them the skills they need for a lifetime of health and vitality. 272 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Why am I still single ' If you're single and searching, there's no end to other people's explanations, excuses, and criticism explaining why you haven't found a partner: 'You're too picky. Just find a good-enough guy and you'll be fine.' 'You're too desperate. If men think you need them, they'll run scared.' 'You're too independent. Smart, ambitious women always have a harder time finding mates.' 'You have low self-esteem. You can't love someone else until you've learned to love yourself.' 'You're too needy. You can't be happy in a relationship until you've learned to be happy on your own.' Based on one of the most popular Modern Love columns of the last decade, Sara Eckel's It's Not You challenges these myths, encouraging singletons to stop picking apart their personalities and to start tapping into their own wisdom about who and what is right for them. Supported by the latest psychological and sociological research, as well as interviews with people who have experienced longtime singledom, Eckel creates a strong and empowering argument to understand and accept that there's no one reason why you're single-you just are.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How much control do we have over love Much less than we like to think. All that mystery, all that poetry, all those complex behaviors surrounding human bonding leading to the most life-changing decisions we'll ever make, are unconsciously driven by a few molecules in our brains.How does love begin How can two strangers come to the conclusion that it would not only be pleasant to share their lives, but that they must share them How can a man say he loves his wife, yet still cheat on her Why do others stay in relationships even after the romance fades How is it possible to fall in love with the 'wrong' person How do people come to have a 'type' Physical attraction, jealousy, infidelity, mother-infant bonding-all the behaviors that so often leave us befuddled-are now being teased out of the fog of mystery thanks to today's social neuroscience. Larry Young, one of the world's leading experts in the field, and journalist Brian Alexander explain how those findings apply to you.Drawing on real human stories and research from labs around the world, The Chemistry Between Us is a bold attempt to create a 'grand unified theory' of love. Some of the mind-blowing insights include:Love can get such a grip on us because it is, literally, an addiction.To a woman falling in love, a man is like her baby.Why it's false to say society makes gender, and how it's possible to have the body of one gender and the brain of another.Why some people are more likely to cheat than others.Why we sometimes truly can't resist temptation.Young and Alexander place their revelations into historical, political, and social contexts. In the process, they touch on everything from gay marriage to why single-mother households might not be good for society. The Chemistry Between Us offers powerful insights into love, sex, gender, sexual orientation, and family life that will prove to be enlightening, controversial, and thought provoking.
