by Nicholas PerriconeFrom the author of the New York Times runaway bestseller The Wrinkle Cure comes a groundbreaking, scientifically based, easy-to-follow total-body anti-aging program -a revolutionary plan of action that empowers you to firm your face, tone your figure, and improve our overall health and appearance.

Sixteen Minutes to a Better 9-to-5: Stress-free work with Yoga and Ayurveda
by Vinod VermaDr. Verma's advice for a stress-free work environment begins with a daily yoga program-easy exercises that take a total of sixteen minutes a day! She shows you how to recognize the three basic Ayurvedic types so you can "read" the people you work with. Do you have a project that requires long-term careful attention? Give it to a kapha constitution and assign the tight deadlines to the person with a vatta or pitta constitution. The pitta type tends to overreact-but do you appreciate the initiative and abundant creative energy this person offers? Can you accept the various types-including yourself? Dr. Verma describes them so you can work better as part of a team. You will also learn how to balance your type with various foods and spices. This is not a diet book-instead, Dr. Verma offers a way to balance your energy so you get the most out of yourself that you can. Basic Ayurvedic information brings a whole new approach to food, for spices and food choices can help rebalance energy when you have pushed yourself too far, as we all sometimes do. Dr. Verma is practical. She teaches in Europe and all over India-her books have been translated into many languages, and she has a wealth of experience with balancing the demands of a busy schedule and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The 5000-year-old-system that she teaches has worked for her and countless others. Why don't you give it a try? If you are a take-charge kind of person-whether you work at home, in an office, or on a freelance basis-you'll get something from reading this book!
Women, Sex, and Addiction: A Search for Love and Power
by Charlotte Davis KaslFor most women, sexually addictive and sexually co-dependent behavior are intertwined. Sexually co-dependent behavior reflects basic female conditioning in our society - we are taught that a woman's power is in her sexuality, yet her sexuality is often controlled by men. Thus, sex can easily become a basic form of barter: it is the price many women pay for love and the illusion of security. The addicted woman, seeking a sense of personal power and an escape from pain, may use sex and romance as a high or as a way to feel in control, just as an alcoholic uses alcohol. Either way, however, sex never'satisfies her longing for love and self-worth. Combining remarkably candid case histories with provocative cultural analyses, Dr. Charlotte Kasl dramatically evokes both the experience of addiction and the process of recovery. She illuminates the insidious relationship between adult addiction and early abuse or neglect and explores the connections between all forms of addiction. Her guide to recovery is backed by a life-affirming discussion of healthy love and spiritual awareness. With this wise, compassionate book, women will learn to experience their sexuality as a source of love and positive power, and sex as an expression that honors the soul as well as the body.

Trauma and Recovery: The Aftermath of Violence--from Domestic Abuse to Political Terror
by Judith Lewis Herman<p>When <i>Trauma and Recovery</i> was first published in 1992, it was hailed as a groundbreaking work. In the intervening years, Herman's volume has changed the way we think about and treat traumatic events and trauma victims. In a new afterword, Herman chronicles the incredible response the book has elicited and explains how the issues surrounding the topic have shifted within the clinical community and the culture at large. <p><i>Trauma and Recovery</i> brings a new level of understanding to a set of problems usually considered individually. Herman draws on her own cutting-edge research in domestic violence as well as on the vast literature of combat veterans and victims of political terror, to show the parallels between private terrors such as rape and public traumas such as terrorism. <p>The book puts individual experience in a broader political frame, arguing that psychological trauma can be understood only in a social context. Meticulously documented and frequently using the victims' own words as well as those from classic literary works and prison diaries, <i>Trauma and Recovery</i> is a powerful work that will continue to profoundly impact our thinking.</p>
