This is a fascinating guide to how the power of numbers, with their positive and negative attributes and vibrational energies, can help us understand the universe we live in. You can discover how numbers have a greater significance in the wider world than is often perceived. You can learn how numbers can help you gain a deeper insight into your own habits, spiritual challenges, family characteristics and personal qualities. You can find out whether you are a Number One personality, displaying courage and innovation; a Number Six, the home-maker, or revolutionary artist; or a Number Four, a person of action able to turn dreams into reality. It contains a concise history of numerology, practical exercises throughout, and over 100 illustrations. On a simplistic level numbers are used to measure age or time, solve a mathematical puzzle or define weight and size. Materialistically they are used to attribute a numerical value to possessions, income and homes. But numbers influence us in ways we may not be aware of, and can actually affect our destiny. Numerology is the science of numbers and cycles that has a specific application to each individual, and this book shows how numbers, and their various attributes, can shape our lives. Working out a personal number is easy and fun, using the number derived from a person's name to assess personality and motivation, while the birth date gives signals about how a person develops their potential. At a psychological level each number is assigned a series of qualities that can assist in mapping a life path. This is a fascinating little book that provides an intriguing insight into a subject that can change our perception of the world.

The book aims to establish the concept of attitudes as more central to the study of minority and majority languages. The strong tradition of attitude theory and research from social psychology is made relevant to language restoration and decay. Original research shows how attitude to bilingualism is conceptually distinct from attitude to a specific language. A piece of research in Wales investigates the origins of language attitudes in individual differences and in environmental attributes.

Wales is a small nation with a long and varied tradition of bilingualism. The minority language and culture is under threat. The book seeks to take the temperature of the Welsh language. Building on a computer analysis of the 1981 Welsh language Census data, the book provides evidence of a language moving slowly towards extinction. The aim of each chapter is to examine an issue which is of significance in most minority language situations, but is exemplified and encapsulated in the Welsh context. The effect of television and other mass media, the potential and threat of the microelectronic revolution, the existence and erosion of heartlands are issues which are part of the nervous tension of contemporary Wales and many other minority language regions. The role of bilingual education is a central issue of the book. A bilingual education model is described as a basis for analysing some of the problems and issues of Welsh and worldwide bilingual education. Another chapter analyses different approaches to curriculum development in minority language contexts and argues for a dual approach combining central initiatives and teacher based action research. Regional variations in the policy and provision of bilingual schooling in Wales are portrayed, and two further chapters present recent research into Welsh education. This research points to the crucial nature of immersion and active participation in the minority culture as a lifeline for the future of the Welsh language.
