What happens in our brains to make us feel fear, love, hate, anger, joy? Do we control our emotions, or do they control us? Do animals have emotions? How can traumatic experiences in early childhood influence adult behavior, even though we have no conscious memory of them? In The Emotional Brain, Joseph LeDoux investigates the origins of human emotions and explains that many exist as part of complex neural systems that evolved to enable us to survive. One of the principal researchers profiled in Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence, LeDoux is a leading authority in the field of neural science. In this provocative book, he explores the brain mechanisms underlying our emotions -- mechanisms that are only now being revealed.

The Nature series consists of four books: Art of Nature, Shades of Nature, Reflection and now Moods of Nature. This book has evolved many times since its conception, as Heinrich's moods changed. It started full of colour, but in the end the only colour that remained was the mood colour of nature - the colour of sunsets. The book was printed using two diverse printing processes: Sepiana for black and white and Chroma Centric for the colour images. The Sepiana process uses four grey and black inks to print, and Chroma Centric employs a special. technique to enlarge the gamut of the colour it can print.

THE COMPLETE BABY & CHILD CARE HANDBOOK For more than four decades, parents worldwide have referred to Marina's book as their 'baby bible'. The Baby & Child Care Handbook is fully up to date, with the latest medical research. You will also have free access to Marina's website (www.baby-childcare.com) featuring over 100 video talks by world renowned paediatric experts, doctors and professors on a variety of childcare subjects.These are arranged according to the subject of each chapter in the book. 'It is my sincere conviction that parents of all shades and creeds share a common bond: that of wanting the best for their children. It is also the right of every child to be raised with enough care to nurture mind, body and soul; so that each will grow up with the good sense of self-worth and a chance to realise their full potential.' MARINA PETROPULOS 'Marina highlights that each child is an individual, so we as parents get to know them in order to provide their particular needs. There is no single right way and Marina is very clear that we have to trust our knowledge of our particular children in order to help them grow up to be adults who can negotiate their way in life. This is a book to have always on one's bedside table!' Dr ALAN WOOD, Medical Journal. 'This book is a veritable one-stop knowledge shop... Not only does it seem to cover every single, solitary, freaky, benign, apparently stupid or incredibly bright question a fuzzy-headed mother might find herself asking, but it does so in a calm, credible, non-judgemental and non-patronising tone... there are also the more tricky topics like the hopes we have for our children, and - very sensitively and sensibly dealt with - the issue of discipline... particularly useful are the handy grids to illnesses, their symptoms and when to see a doctor... ' KAREN SCHIMKE 'This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive and reliable, factual advice and help for parents and parents-to-be. I unreservedly recommend it.' DR JOHN PEARN, Royal Children's' Hospital, Australia. 'This book read beautifully - it is light, yet serious and thorough and up-to-date. A really marvellous guide and source of excellent information.' Professor Astrid Berg, MB ChB, FC Psych (SA), MPhil (Child & Adolescent Psychiatry). Professor Berg is on the Board of Directors of the World Association for Infant Mental Health. 'This book could be the best investment parents ever make...' SUNDAY TIMES. Curious?

My stomach went cold, as though I’d swallowed a trayful of ice cubes. I looked out the window, half expecting to see someone watching me. There was no-one. Just the wall my bedroom looks out on. And as I looked at it, it seemed to be coming towards me, getting closer and closer, looming over me so that I was sure it would crush me. And then it broke into bits of concrete flying in all directions, shouting `We know your secret!’. Bongani is a smart, loveable young teenager, struggling to manage his tricky life. Someone has discovered his terrible secret and Bongani must find him and silence him. This fast-paced humorous story examines serious issues with wisdom and sensitivity. It will entertain and provoke even the most reluctant readers. “The trip that Bongani takes us on – from the first peep, peep, peep of his ever-present cell phone to the uncovering of a devastating secret that he’s been living with, has the speed and twists of a rollercoaster ride ... with a surprise ending. But it’s the intimacy of the writer’s style that keeps the reader constantly at Bongani’s side – as well as on his side.” Niki Daly, judge of the MML Literature Awards.

A Human Being Died That Night recounts an extraordinary dialogue. Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela, a psychologist who grew up in a black South African township, reflects on her interviews with Eugene de Kock, the commanding officer of state-sanctioned death squads under apartheid. Gobodo-Madikizela met with de Kock in Pretoria's maximum-security prison, where he is serving a 212-year sentence for crimes against humanity. In profoundly arresting scenes, Gobodo-Madikizela conveys her struggle with contradictory internal impulses to hold him accountable and to forgive. Ultimately, as she allows us to witness de Kock's extraordinary awakening of conscience, she illuminates the ways in which the encounter compelled her to redefine the value of remorse and the limits of forgiveness.
