In What Do Women Want? Adventures in the Science of Female Desire, critically acclaimed journalist Daniel Bergne disseminates the latest scientific research and paints an unprecedented portrait of female lust: the triggers, the fantasies, the mind-body connection (and disconnection), the reasons behind the loss of libido, and, most revelatory, that this loss is not inevitable. Bergner asks: Are women actually the less monogamous gender? Do women really crave intimacy and emotional connection? Are women more disposed to sex with strangers and multiple pairings than either science or society have ever let on? And is “the fairer sex” actually more sexually aggressive and anarchic than men? While debunking the myths popularized by evolutionary psychology, Bergner also looks at the future of female sexuality. Pharmaceutical companies are pouring billions of dollars to develop a “Viagra” for women. But will it ever be released? Or are we not yet ready for a world in which women can become aroused at the simple popping of a pill? Insightful and illuminating, What Do Women Want? is a deeper exploration of Daniel Bergner's provocative New York Times Magazine cover story; it will spark dynamic debates and discussions for years to come.

With her critically acclaimed, bestselling first book, Scent of the Missing, Susannah Charleson was widely praised for her unique insight into the kinship between humans and dogs, as revealed through her work in canine search and rescue alongside her partner, golden retriever Puzzle. Now, in The Possibility Dogs, Charleson journeys into the world of psychiatric service, where dogs aid humans with disabilities that may be unseen but are no less felt. This work had a profound effect on Charleson, perhaps because, for her, this journey began as a personal one: Charleson herself struggled with posttraumatic stress disorder for months after a particularly grisly search. Collaboration with her search dog partner made the surprising difference to her own healing. Inspired by that experience, Charleson learns to identify abandoned dogs with service potential, often plucking them from shelters at the last minute, and to train them for work beside hurting partners, to whom these second-chance dogs bring intelligence, comfort, and hope. Along the way she comes to see canine potential everywhere, often where she least expects it – from Merlin the chocolate lab puppy with the broken tail once cast away in a garbage bag, who now stabilizes his partner’s panic attacks; to Ollie, the blind and deaf terrier, rescued moments before it was too late, who now soothes anxious children; to Jake Piper, the starving pit bull terrier mix with the wayward ears who is transformed into a working service dog and, who, for Charleson, goes from abandoned to irreplaceable.

Although we have bandages for cuts, chicken soup for colds, and ice packs for bruises, most of us have no idea how to treat day-to-day emotional injuries such as failure, rejection, guilt, and loss. But these kinds of emotional injuries often get worse when left untreated and can significantly impact our quality of life and cause damage to our emotional wellbeing. Each chapter is dedicated to a specific common emotional wound and explains the short term emotional injuries that we sustain and the long-term psychological fallout that can result if we leave these injuries untreated. The second part of each chapter offers concrete, easy-to-use treatments, all of which are backed up by hard cutting-edge science that we can administer to aid in our recovery. http://www.guywinch.com/

Do you get confused while poring over labels at the grocery store, trying to determine the healthiest options? What makes one box of cereal better for you than another, and how are we supposed to decipher the extensive lists of mysterious ingredients on every package, and then determine whether they are safe or toxic to your family's health? With nearly 40,000 items populating the average supermarket today, the Rich Food Poor Food - Grocery Purchasing System (GPS), is a unique guide that steers the consumer through the grocery store aisles, directing them to health enhancing Rich Food options while avoiding health detracting Poor Food ones. Rich Food, Poor Food is unique in the grocery store guide arena in that rather than rating a particular food using calories, sodium, or fat as the main criteria, it identifies the products that contain wholesome, micronutrient-rich ingredients that health-conscious shoppers are looking for, like wild caught fish, grass-fed beef, raw/organic cheese, organic meats, pastured eggs and dairy, organic produce and sprouted grains, nuts and seeds, while avoiding over 150 common unwanted Poor Food ingredients such as sugar, high fructose corn syrup, refined flour, GMOs, MSG, artificial colors, flavors and sweeteners, pesticides, nitrites/ nitrates, gluten, and chemical preservatives like BHA and BHT.

On November 5, 1942, a U.S. cargo plane on a routine flight slammed into the Greenland Ice Cap. Four days later, the B-17 assigned to the search-and-rescue mission became lost in a blinding storm and also crashed. Miraculously, all nine men on the B-17 survived. With the weather worsening, the U.S. military launched a daring rescue mission, sending a Grumman Duck amphibious plane to find the men. After picking up one member of the B-17 crew, the Duck flew into a severe storm, and the plane and the three men aboard vanished. In this thrilling, true-life adventure, Mitchell Zuckoff offers a spellbinding account of these harrowing crashes and the fate of the survivors and their would-be saviors. Full of evocative detail, "Frozen in Time" brings their extraordinary ordeal vividly into focus-a fight to stay alive and sane through 148 days of a brutal Arctic winter. Zuckoff takes us deep into the most hostile environment on earth and into the snow caves and tail section of the broken B-17, where the soldiers took refuge from subzero temperatures, hurricane-force winds, and vicious blizzards. He places us at the center of a group of valiant men kept alive by sporadic military food drops until an expedition headed by famed Arctic explorer Bernt Balchen brought them to safety. But that is only part of the story that unfolds in "Frozen in Time".

Forget the "10,000 hour rule"... what if it's possible to learn any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What's on your list? What's holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills - time you don't have and effort you can't spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That's why it's difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It's so much easier to watch TV or surf the web... In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition: how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you'll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. This method isn't theoretical: it's field-tested. Kaufman invites readers to join him as he field tests his approach by learning to program a Web application, play the ukulele, practice yoga, re-learn to touch type, get the hang of windsurfing, and study the world's oldest and most complex board game.

Some of us are just naturals when it comes to parenting. But the rest of us wish that parenting came with operating instructions. Now it does.

The rigorously tested strategies in this book will not only help change your child’s behavior, they will also decrease the stress in family relations, increase your joy in parenting, and help build a more nurturing home life that can directly improve children's mental and physical health and school success. You won’t find abstract philosophy here. You’ll see every point, every strategy, illustrated with real-life examples.

A new study from McAfee examines the online habits and interests of preteens, teens and young adults and finds there is a significant disconnect between what they do online and what their parents believe they do. While they understand the Internet can be dangerous, they still engage in risky behavior, hiding this activity from their parents, and even admitting that they would change their behavior if they knew their parents were paying attention. And the majority of parents (72%) simply admit defeat or say that they don’t have the time or energy to keep up with their children and hope for the best. Robert Siciliano, an online security expert will be here to share more about the study, and talk about the newest apps and programs parents should be aware of. As a father to two girls who are almost tween age, he says it is important to teach them how to live safely online. He will also discuss his personal tips when it comes to approaching this topic with your children, and how to safely monitor them without having them feeling smothered.

In her late teens, Elle Benet made the difficult and daring decision to leave the security of her family life inside a cult for an independent but unknown life outside the cult. “The fear of the unknown and the outside world was a strong temptation to stay,” says Elle, in her inspirational and compelling memoir, THEY MADE ME DO IT: A Cult Survivor’s Memoir of Life After The Cult. “But the fear of what might happen if I left the cult started to be taken over by the pain of staying, and the balance started to tip,” she adds. In THEY MADE ME DO IT, Elle Benet describes a harrowing childhood where she witnessed her father constantly beating her brothers and she and her mother suffered from his constant verbal abuse. She was not allowed to associate with children outside the cult. Stylish clothing was prohibited. Even wearing pants or a bathing suit for swimming was banned. Higher education was frowned upon and medical intervention, even when a child’s life was at the point of death was strictly forbidden.

A Step-by-Step Program to Reduce Anger, Rage, Negativity, Violence, and Depression in Your Life If you get angry out of the blue, experience road rage, often blow off steam at your kids, get depressed for no apparent reason, or otherwise act out of control, then you need to read and heed this book. Anger is not just an emotion - it's a way of life based on all the things you eat, think, and do. Specific biological, nutritional, and psychological states feed anger. So if you don't change your lifestyle and cure your problem, you're headed for degenerative diseases that increase with age - things like diabetes, cancer, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, obesity, and addiction. In her book, author Kathleen O'Bannon, C.N.C., uses her accumulated wealth of knowledge about lifestyle-based conditions to provide a series of tests to help you diagnose what's causing your anger problem. She then guides you through a series of lifestyle changes necessary to cure it. For instance, spikes in your blood sugar after you eat a candy bar instead of a nutritious lunch cause anger attacks, as do yeast infections, a lack of B vitamins, and excess stress. Not only does O'Bannon describe the many factors that contribute to and promote anger, she provides diets, exercises, and stress management - a complete Anger Cure program - based on nearly thirty years of lifestyle counseling. Being angry is a choice you make when you allow your body to control you instead of you controlling your body. The goal of The Anger Cure is to help you learn how to become more balanced and anger-free. Are you ready to take control of your life? The choice is yours. www.healthaliveproducts.com

The Little Book of Alternative Investments (Wiley; March 2011; $19.95; Hardcover: ISBN 978-0-470-92004-6) by bestselling investment authors Ben Stein and Phil DeMuth clears a path through the alternative investments jungle. Like a pair of trusty native guides, they identify the flora and fauna, stopping along the way to explain which ones are safe to consume and which ones will consume you, if given half a chance. And they explain in plain English, not Wall Street Swahili, how each product or class of products works (or doesn't work), and how each can be used to help you reduce risk and boost returns. http://www.amazon.com/Little-Book-Alternative-Investments-Different/dp/0470920041/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1358435777&sr=1-1&keywords=the+little+book+of+alternative+investing

Neglect, physical, sexual and psychological abuse and medical maltreatment are just some of the ways a reported 3.3 million children in America suffer each year, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. And that number doesn’t include the unreported cases. “Growing up in Bensonhurst, Hell’s Kitchen and the seedy streets of Broadway during the 1970s as a Greek orphan trafficked to neurotic, ignorant and abusive parents in New York City – my case was never reported,” says C. Dionysios Dionou, author of “Twentieth-Century Janissary,” (www.dionou.com). The book details how he survived parental abuse, street gangs, adult criminals and others bent on misusing children. “I was blessed with my wits; I escaped into books such as Sun Tzu’s ‘The Art of War,’ and I learned at an early age how to keep my head down at home, bide my time there, and how to play with others on the streets.” Dionou supported himself with a multitude of diverse jobs – “at one point, I was working in a brothel,” he says. But with the help of mentors, a few hard lessons – including a brief stint in jail – and the love of a good woman, he was able to find stable footing in his life, he says.

I will have an interview with Peter Moore from Men’s Health magazine about a story featured in this month’s issue centered on being a Dad. We're DADS.And that carries a lot of EXPECTATIONS.But SOMETIMES......those expectations can GET IN THE WAY. So as a DAD...how do you know when to be a TOUGH GUY, and when to CUT YOUR KIDS SOME SLACK? Here are the kinds of tips you can expect to hear in this Interview! WELL-BALANCED DAD TIP #1:BE SUPERDAD, NOT SUPERMAN Here's the paradox of modern fatherhood: Men want to be emotionally close to their kids.....but they're shackled by all the cliché’s of masculinity. On one hand, expressing emotion to a child is often viewed as overly sentimental......but on the other hand, vulnerability is the birthplace of trust and empathy. So the trick to being a great father (and a great husband, for that matter)...... is to make a conscious decision to show your sensitive side, no matter what. And you can start by telling your child stories about when you struggled with something at his or her age......and you openly share your owns fears and embarrassments. By doing this, your child will learn that Pop is not perfect......and that he or she as a child doesn't have to be flawless to be loved and accepted by you.

Putting the right people at the helm has launched many high-profile, highly successful turnarounds, from Jack Welch in his early days at GE to Meg Whitman at eBay. But companies don’t have to fire the entire C-suite to put “new” leadership in place, says Barbara Trautlein, author of “Change Intelligence: Use the Power of CQ to Lead Change that Sticks” (www.changecatalysts.com). “Leadership is the key to successful major organizational change, which has had a failure rate of 70 percent decades,” she says. “It IS possible to lead successful and sustainable change - IF it's led effectively. The problem has been that, so often, it’s not.” Workforces in every industry -- from manufacturing to service to health care to high tech -- are confused and bruised, she says. Employees in this economy thirst for guidance but are distrustful and disenfranchised -- not engaged, empowered, or equipped to do what is needed to help their organizations transform to survive and thrive. The solution? Those who lead change must first change themselves.

It is 1930, the midst of the Great Depression. After her mysterious role in a family tragedy, passionate, strong-willed Thea Atwell, age fifteen, has been cast out of her Florida home, exiled to an equestrienne boarding school for Southern debutantes. High in the Blue Ridge Mountains, with its complex social strata ordered by money, beauty, and girls’ friendships, the Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls is a far remove from the free-roaming, dreamlike childhood Thea shared with her twin brother on their family’s citrus farm—a world now partially shattered. As Thea grapples with her responsibility for the events of the past year that led her here, she finds herself enmeshed in a new order, one that will change her sense of what is possible for herself, her family, her country. Weaving provocatively between home and school, the narrative powerfully unfurls the true story behind Thea’s expulsion from her family, but it isn’t long before the mystery of her past is rivaled by the question of how it will shape her future. Part scandalous love story, part heartbreaking family drama, The Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls is an immersive, transporting page-turner—a vivid, propulsive novel about sex, love, family, money, class, home, and horses, all set against the ominous threat of the Depression—and the major debut of an important new writer

Our friendships, family ties, and romantic connections give meaning and joy to our lives. But such relationships often assume negative patterns of behavior that can induce long-term harm. In the worst cases, these patterns develop into recurring, cycles that stretch over lifetimes and even spill out into the next generation, where they are repeated again.Breaking the Cycle gives hope to individuals and families affected by such patterns. Drawing on a wealth of personal experience and academic expertise, Saniyyah Mayo offers victims a way out: first by empowering them to recognize the cycles where they occur, and then by offering them concrete tools to address the root of the problem. Using detailed case studies to exemplify how such cycles are born and how they can seriously impact those around us (even when we overlook the signs of trouble), Mayo gives lucid, point-by-point instruction on how and when to create ?boundaries? as a defense against cyclical problems.Mayo leaves no stone unturned in her exhaustive study of such cycles. Her book addresses divorce, blended families, dating dynamics, the interaction between newly married spouses and parents (as well as children from previous marriages), platonic friendships, and religion.

Soaring prices and concerns about chemical-laden fruits and vegetables increasingly drive us to grow our own healthy food close to home. In cities, however, vanishing ground space and contaminated soils spur farmers, activists, and restaurateurs to look to the skyline for a solution. The hunger for local food has reached new heights, and rooftops can provide the space that cities need to bring fresh, organic produce to tables across North America. The first full-length book to focus entirely on rooftop agriculture, Eat Up views this growing movement through a practitioner's lens, explaining: Structural, access, and infrastructural considerations Zoning and building codes Proven growing techniques Business and marketing strategies This graphically rich guide provides inspiration and advice to aspiring growers through photographs of successful rooftop farms and gardens and interviews with industry professionals. Easy-to-use checklists and a decision tree are included to help gauge the viability of each unique rooftop opportunity. Essential reading for home gardeners, entrepreneurs, restaurateurs, policy makers, academics, and designers, Eat Up takes urban agriculture to a whole new level, proving that rooftop farming is not just pie in the sky—it is the future of urban food.

One moment Philip Devitte had everything a guy could dream of: A beautiful wife and family, a great career, a fancy car. The next moment his car suddenly spun out of control and with it his life. The doctors and nurses said he would never walk again. FOLLOW YOUR HEART: A Heroic Journey from Crippling Paralysis to Extraordinary Success (AuthorHouse, June 21, 2013; trade paperback; $12.00) is the inspiring story of Philip Devitte’s refusal to accept the fate his doctors allotted him and his determination against all odds to walk again. Fueled by an inner knowing that he would walk again and that the doctors were wrong, Phil equipped himself with an arsenal of faith, willpower, determination, discipline, flexibility and patience. “The doctors could only take me so far,” says Phil, who ultimately fired his original doctor and surrounded himself only with positive people: positive family and friends, positive technicians, positive aides, positive therapists, positive nurses, and most importantly positive doctors.

He resolved that the remainder of his career would be dedicated to finding better, innovative ways to treat cancer. By rethinking what cancer is and how it behaves, Dr. Nagourney developed a smarter, more effective way to treat cancer patients and established Rational Therapeutics, a pioneering cancer research institute.

Pain medications can be addicting, create all kinds of side effects and even death. One of the most commonly used medication groups, other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs). NSAIDs have been found to cause about 16,000 deaths per year, due to gastrointestinal hemorrhage. In addition, NSAIDs damage the kidneys and liver. Chronic dependence on NSAIDs, also reduces the body's capacity to heal itself from injury. Tylenol or acetaminophen, damages the liver. Thousands of people a year end up with liver failure due to acetaminophen overuse. Acetaminophen is often hidden in over-the-counter medications, like could and cold formulas. People are innocently overdosing with it. Narcotics such as codeine, oxycodone, and OxyContin are addicting. Sedatives, antidepressants and tranquilizers are also used for pain management. Their use escalates during the addiction process and there is a significant illegal market in these drugs. Because of an increase in prescription narcotic overdoses, drug deaths now outnumber traffic fatalities in the United States. Drugs were a cause of death in 2009, of at least 37,485 people nationwide, according to preliminary data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. www.drpawluk.com.
