Описание: What makes for a healthy and lasting union in which love prevails? Experts give advcie on how to keep relationships strogn from initial attraction to lasting love. Love Decoded provides everything you need to ensure your passion thrives, whether you're celebrating your first anniversary or your 50th! As recently as the 19th century, marriage was largely a practical affair--people married for financial security, to create family, to have a home. If love entered the picture, it was by chance. But starting in the 1900s through to today, marriage and long-term partnerships of all kinds have gone through rapid, radical, continuous change: Today, enduring unions enable love, creativity, and the chance for personal growth--in the wake of a divorce rate at 50%, researchers say, those relationships that allow us to flourish as individuals have the greatest chance of long success. This book describes the 21st century reinvention of enduring unions with input from researchers and therapists at the forefront of the field. Stephanie Coontz, the social historian known for her seminal work on the transformation of marriage, explains how love has conquered marriage. David Sncharch, who reinvented sex therapy for the 21st century in the wake of Master's and Johnson, describes his new model of interconnectedness--in which partners can be independent while pursuing a shared life. And Aaron Ben-Ze-ev, the preeminent philosopher of love and author of the upcoming Arc of Love, explains how long-term relationships can enable profound love and flourishing--not possible when one skips from one passionate fling to the next. Of course, this book covers the gamut of pragmatic issues too: How to get along with in-laws, how to collaborate on raising kids, and how to rebuild the nest when kids have gone. The book includes invaluable advice from couples who have been married for 50 years or more. "Dance," one woman told us. "Keep talking," a man said. Our story about today's all-star couples, from Hollywood to royalty, injects some fun while showing how it's done.

Описание: Some of the world's top experts, including devoted veterinarians, open a window into the minds of our feline freinds. Cats have become so beloved in recent years that some 75 million live in American homes as family pets. Another quarter million are community cats, increasingly serving us in barns, breweries, warehouses and more to keep rodents and other unwanted wildlife under control. Yet the cat has often seemed mysterious--compared to dogs, our cats can feel bit more aloof and difficult to truly "get." But new research into our feline friends now reveals their love for us, their secret language, including accents and dialects, and their inner depths. In a series of engaging stories featuring the world's top experts, veterinarians and pet-owners themselves, this premium book opens a window into the minds of our feline friends. Among the features: How to raise a kitten to become a great cat; how to understand your cat's purrs, meows and body language; how to teach your cat tricks; and how to rescue a stranded cat and make it your own. A bonus feature covers favorite breeds and the advantages each confers.
Описание: Elephants can count. Dogs read our expressions. Cows have personality. Fish feel pain. What do animals know and feel? Are they creative, can they actually make art? Do they grieve or have agency - the ability to make decisions, intentionally manipulate other creatures (even us) or love? Animals have extraordinary abilities. Their feelings are much like ours, and some of their cognitive skills equal our own. Inside the Animal Mind unpacks their inner lives and their relationship to us. Animal consciousness has long been fascinating -- but difficult to penetrate. Today, that is changing, and fast. Researchers say that each creature has evolved a suitable intelligence and emotional life for it's own role in the world: Dogs have minds that race though time on the fast track, in line with their quick metabolisms. Cats have a detailed language of meows to communicate specifically with humans. The octopus, with eight interacting arms, has a wildly complex brain. Readers will learn about how dogs love us, the special skills of horse therapists, and the wisdom of communities of bees. We explore how animals remember, how they love, the nature of their self-awareness and moral codes -- and how they have fun.

Описание: "Leading us through this amazing wealth of connections, allusions, relationships, and influences, Weintraub never falters in his lucid writing that captures the reader's interest and fascination."--SHAW: The Annual of Bernard Shaw Studies
"This collection of essays by one of the world's leading Shaw scholars makes original and significant contributions to understanding of Shaw on many different fronts. . . . A most welcome addition to a masterly collection of works about Shaw and his contemporaries by Weintraub, a collection characteristically marked, as here, by lively, punchy, and entertaining writing."--English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920
"Splendid. This book continually surprises and entertains with its revelations about Shaw's engagement with an impressive array of historical and contemporary figures, ranging from Jesus to Virginia Woolf. This is a virtuoso performance by a maestro of Shaw studies."--A. M. Gibbs, author of Bernard Shaw: A Life
"Ur-Shavian Stanley Weintraub's great virtues as a writer are stunning erudition and a consistently high level of readability. Again and again, his scholarship is illuminating--alive with original findings that make his essays profitable and exciting to read."--Charles A. Carpenter, author of Bernard Shaw as Artist-Fabian
People known to Bernard Shaw had every reason to fear becoming recognizable characters in his plays. He turned Beatrice Webb into a witchlike virago in The Millionairess, Winston Churchill into an aspiring, blowhard politician in John Bull's Other Island, and Lawrence of Arabia into the eccentric army private Napoleon Alexander Trotsky Meek in Too True to Be Good. However, as eminent Shaw scholar Stanley Weintraub reveals in this exquisite collection, Shaw's relationships to real or imagined personalities could be both curiously unexpected and deliciously complex.
Featuring figures as varied as Julius Caesar, Zulu king Cetewayo, Noel Coward, Edward Elgar, and Benjamin Disraeli, this volume brilliantly demonstrates how Shaw put something of himself into all of his "people." The result is a book that is consistently revealing, intriguing, and entertaining.
Описание: The untold story of Babe Ruth's Yankees, John McGraw's Giants, and the extraordinary baseball season of 1923 Before the 27 World Series titles--before Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, and Derek Jeter-the Yankees were New York's shadow franchise. They hadn't won a championship, and they didn't even have their own field, renting the Polo Grounds from their cross-town rivals the New York Giants. In 1921 and 1922, they lost to the Giants when it mattered most: in October. But in 1923, the Yankees played their first season on their own field, the newly-built, state of the art baseball palace in the Bronx called "the Yankee Stadium." The stadium was a gamble, erected in relative outerborough obscurity, and Babe Ruth was coming off the most disappointing season of his career, a season that saw his struggles on and off the field threaten his standing as a bona fide superstar. It only took Ruth two at-bats to signal a new era. He stepped up to the plate in the 1923 season opener and cracked a home run to deep right field, the first homer in his park, and a sign of what lay ahead. It was the initial blow in a season that saw the new stadium christened "The House That Ruth Built," signaled the triumph of the power game, and established the Yankees as New York's-and the sport's-team to beat. From that first home run of 1923 to the storybook World Series matchup that pitted the Yankees against their nemesis from across the Harlem River-one so acrimonious that John McGraw forced his Giants to get to the Bronx in uniform rather than suit up at the Stadium-Robert Weintraub vividly illuminates the singular year that built a classic stadium, catalyzed a franchise, cemented Ruth's legend, and forever changed the sport of baseball.
