I have both dyslexia and dyspraxia. I have decided to write this,
probably a little too late as there is some great information out
there but maybe I have a little bit of a different look on things.

Which sort of seducer could you be: *Siren? *Rake? *Cold Coquette?
*Star? *Comedian? *Charismatic? or *Saint? This book will show you
which. 'Charm, persuasion, the ability to create illusions: these
are some of the many dazzling gifts of the Seducer, the compelling
figure who is able to manipulate, mislead and give pleasure all at
once. When raised to the level of art, seduction, an indirect and
subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections and
enslaved great minds. In this beautiful, sensually designed book,
Greene unearths the two sides of seduction: the characters and the
process. Discover who you, or your pursuer, most resembles. Learn,
too, the pitfalls of the anti-Seducer. In part II, immerse yourself
in the twenty-four manoeuvres and strategies of the seductive
process, the ritual by which a seducer gains mastery over their
target. Understand how to 'Choose the Right Victim', 'Appear to Be
an Object of Desire' and 'Confuse Desire and Reality'. In addition,
Greene provides instruction on how to identify victims by type.
Each fascinating character and each cunning tactic demonstrates a
fundamental truth about who we are, and the targets we've become -
or hope to win over. The Art of Seduction is an indispensable
primer on the essence of one of history's greatest weapons and the
ultimate power trip.
Who and what are supercommunicators? They're the people who can steer a
conversation to a successful conclusion. They are able to talk about
difficult topics without giving offence. They know how to make others
feel at ease and share what they think. They're brilliant facilitators
and decision-guiders. How do they do it?
In this groundbreaking new book, Charles Duhigg unravels the secrets of
the supercommunicators to reveal the art – and the science – of
successful communication. He unpicks the different types of everyday
conversation and pinpoints why some go smoothly while others swiftly
fall apart. He reveals the conversational questions and gambits that
bring people together. And he shows how even the most tricky of
encounters can be turned around. In the process, he shows why a CIA
operative was able to win over a reluctant spy, how a member of a jury
got his fellow jurors to view an open-and-shut case differently, and
what a doctor found they needed to do to engage with a vaccine sceptic.
Above all, he reveals the techniques we can all master to successfully
connect with others, however tricky the circumstances. Packed with
fascinating case studies and drawing on cutting-edge research, this
book will change the way you think about what you say, and how you say
it.
In the 21st century people live on their wits. What determines how
successful they are in whatever they do is their mental ability
and, to a large extent, that depends on their memory quality. The
author and colleagues of London University discovered that memory
quality has even replaced IQ as the dominant predictor of school
outcomes. Deriving from such research, this book, now in its third
edition, contains a powerful system for enhancing memory quality.
Written in plain, concise language, it is simple, effective and
comprehensive in its application. It has been tested over and over
again on the young, the old, the bright and the not so bright and
it can be mastered in just 7 - 10 hours.
