When the Parents Change, Everything Changes
Your own behaviour is the only behaviour over which you have absolute control. To change your children's behaviour, you first need to change your own.
Here, Britain's leading behaviour expert reveals how we get children's behaviour wrong - and how to get it right. Drawing on a method tried and tested in over 100,000 classrooms, he shows that the only way to change what your child does is by first changing what you do. He explains why punishing your way to a life without tantrum-prone toddlers/sulking teenagers is a fool's errand - and how to instead grow new behaviours with love. And he reveals why a positive, relational, consistent approach to parenting is 1,000 times more powerful than any Xbox, Disneyland trip or cold, hard cash bribe that money can buy.
Filled with practical tools and relatable case studies, Paul Dix's method will turn your home into a behavioural nirvana. It is not just a list of punishments and rewards. It is so much more useful than that.
Going Harvey in the Big House
Aurora Award Finalist.The Builders had made the House generations ago, to shelter the remnants of humanity from the poisons of the Outside. The Inners, the direct descendants of the Builders, now rule the House. The House protects the People, and the Inners protect the House. And Smoothers are the arms and legs of that protection. Big G is a Smoother, ensuring that the daily activities of the House are not interrupted by "Harveys," citizens who suffer violent mental breakdowns in the claustrophobic House. But when Big G discovers a strange photograph of blue and white swirls of nothingness during a Harvey call, it leads him to world within the world he thought he knew—and a world outside it as well."I first read this story in a workshop nearly a decade ago. Since then, Doug sold it to a number of different markets and it was a finalist for Canada’s prestigious Aurora Award. Now it’s out in e-book format. I read a lot, as you can tell, and I don’t remember most stories the next day, let alone decades later. The images and the power of the story have stayed with me all this time. That’s one of the strongest recommendations I can give."—Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Recommended Reading List, Aug 2011"Hands down, my favourite story … I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of a city that encompasses what we know of the known world. … Smith’s version, the ‘House,’ is well conceived, but as always, it’s his characters that drive the story. Big G is pitch perfect. Every aspect of his personality is just spot on. Though he’s not a completely accessible character, portrayed as being not as intelligent as a more usual protagonist, he is completely there and three-dimensional and his reactions and motivations are plausible. It works! The ending is just right. It couldn’t have been any other way..." —SF Crowsnest Reviews"Going Harvey in the Big House" fed into my natural fears, suspicions, and all-round disillusionment with authority. Thereafter, I began an inquiry. I read Orwell’s 1984, Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, Zamyatin’s We, Huxley’s Brave New World… "Going Harvey in the Big House" led me to places I thought I’d never be, culminating eventually in sweat-soaked nightmares about a post-apocalyptic world." —Cicada

The Mutineer: A Romance of Pitcairn Island
The Mutineer: A Romance of Pitcairn Islandby Louis Becke and Walter Jeffery: The tale of the mutiny of His Majesty's armed ship Bounty, which led to the founding of the Pitcairn community, is well known. All that needs to be told here is from Tahiti with a cargo of breadfruit trees for planting in the West Indies, the master's mate, Fletcher Christian, and others of the crew mutinied. Casting adrift the Commander, Lieutenant William Bligh, and eighteen loyal officers in the ship's boat, the mutineers sailed the Bounty back to Tahiti, then to Tubuai in the Austral Group. There, relations with the inhabitants soon deteriorated and, spurred by the fear of discovery and arrest, eight of the mutineers set sail with Christian in search of an uninhabited island, secure from the outside world. To help them the men took with them six Tahitian men and, to look after them and be their consorts, twelve Tahitian women.

Lacná kniha Prabhupáda (-70%)
Tato působivá kniha Satsvarúpy dáse Gósvámího velice poutavě hovoří o životě a učení zcela neobyčejného světce, učence a duchovního učitele moderní doby – A.Č. Bhaktivédanty Svámího Prabhupády. Hnutí, které založil, je známo prakticky po celém světě, ale sám jako osobnost zůstal bez vlastních ambicí pouze v pozadí.
Když Šríla Prabhupáda poprvé potkal svého duchovního učitele, Bhaktisiddhántu Sarasvatího Gósvámího, ihned jím byl požádán, aby rozšiřoval učení Čaitanji Maháprabhua v anglickém jazyce. To, čeho Bhaktivédanta Svámí později dosáhl, pak překvapilo celý svět. V posledních deseti letech svého života, navzdory pokročilému věku, kdy většina lidí myslí už jen na odpočinek, dvanáctkrát procestoval celou zeměkouli, aby ku prospěchu všech lidí předal celému světu poklad védské moudrosti i kultury.
Ať už z pohledu sociologického, filozofického nebo náboženského studia je životní příběh Šríly Prabhupády jedinečným příspěvkem celému lidstvu.
Čtenáře překvapí osobní vlastnosti Šríly Prabhupády – jeho cílevědomost, opravdová pokora a hluboká duchovnost… Život Šríly Prabhupády, jak je zde představen, je ztělesněním ideálu, který předložil k následování i všem ostatním. Ve věku všudypřítomného pokrytectví a cynizmu je to právě takový druh vzácného příkladu, který potřebujeme.
