Originally published in 1995, the first edition of Managing Your
Mind established a unique place in the self-help book market. A
blend of tried-and-true psychological counseling and no-nonsense
management advice grounded in the principles of CBTand other
psychological treatments, the book straddled two types of self-help
literature, arguing that in one's personal and professional life,
the way to success is the same. By adopting the practical
strategies that mental health experts Butler and Hope have
developed over years of clinical research and practice, one can
develop the "mental fitness" necessary to resolve one's personal
and interpersonal challenges at home and work and to live a
productive, satisfying life.
The first edition addressed how to develop key skills to mental
fitness (e.g., managing one's time better, facing and solving
problems better, keeping things in perspective, learning to relax,
etc.), how to improve one's relationships, how to beat anxiety and
depression, and how to establish a good mind-body balance. For this
new edition, Butler and Hope have updated all preexisting material
and have added five new chapters-on sexuality and intimate
relationships; anger in relationships; recent traumatic events and
their aftermath; loss and bereavement; and dealing with the past.

The Brooke family are gathering in their eighteenth-century ancestral home – twenty bedrooms of carved Sussex sandstone – to bury Philip: husband, father and the blinding sun around which they have all orbited for as long as they can remember. Frannie, inheritor of a thousand acres of English countryside, has dreams of rewilding and returning the estate to nature: a last line of defence against the coming climate catastrophe. Milo envisages a treetop haven for the super-rich where, under the influence of psychedelic drugs, a new ruling class will be reborn. Each believes their father has given them his blessing, setting them on a collision course with each other. Isa has long suspected that her father thought only of himself, and hopes to seek out her childhood love, who still lives on the estate, to discover whether it is her feelings for him that are creating the fault lines in her marriage. And then there is Clara, who arrives in their midst from America, shrouded in secrets and bearing a truth that will fracture all the dreams on which they’ve built their lives.
William Hope Hodgson's "cosmic horror" classic continues the
Haunted Library of Horror Classics series. In a ruined house at the
edge of an abyss lies the diary of a madman… Two friends on a
fishing trip make an unsettling discovery when the river they've
been following abruptly ends and reappears some 100 feet below the
edge of an abyss. If that wasn't unnerving enough, the river runs
along the remains of an oddly shaped house, half-swallowed by the
pit. Within the ruins, they discover the moldering journal of an
unidentified man—the Recluse—who had lived in the house years
ago. Its pages reveal the man's apparent descent into madness—why
else would he chronicle haunted visions, trips to other dimensions,
and attacks by swine-like creatures that have followed him home?
After a horrific vision in which he witnesses the end of the earth
and time itself, the Recluse awakens in his study to find nothing
has changed—except that his dog has dissolved into a pile of
dust. And then the "swine things" return... Introduced by modern
horror master Ramsey Campbell as "an enduring classic of cosmic
terror," The House on the Borderland has inspired dozens of other
classic horror novels and indelibly changed the genre. Influencing
writers from H.P. Lovecraft to Terry Pratchett, this 1908
masterpiece shucks the conventions of Gothic horror and presents an
eerie mix of sci-fi, fantasy, and the supernatural.

A classic in the Black literary canon. Continuously available in
print since 1968, this novel has become embedded in progressive
anti-racist culture with wide circulation of the book and hotly
debated film and television adaptations. A classic in the Black
literary tradition, The Spook Who Sat by the Door is a strong
comment on entrenched racial inequities in the United States in the
late 1960s. With its focus on the "militancy" that characterized
the Black Power movement of the 1960s and 1970s, this is the story
of one man's reaction to ruling-class hypocrisy in ways that make
the novel autobiographical and personal. As a tale of a reaction to
the forces of oppression, this book is universal. Dan Freeman, the
"spook who sat by the door," is enlisted in the CIA's elitist
espionage program. Upon mastering agency tactics, however, he drops
out to train young Black Chicagoans to combat racism as"Freedom
Fighters" in this explosive novel.
