By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you can pick up the basics in record time... and have more fun along the way. Product details Format Paperback | 288 pages

Good Man Gone (9780995287723)

'It's not every day that a good man sets a killing in motion.' So begins this tale. Chester has a serious problem. Tender-hearted and utterly devoted to his beautiful wife, he's convinced she will soon leave him and take their young daughter. It's a prospect he can't live with. Desperation overcomes him. But how far will he go? Well, a whole lot farther than you would ever think, and you have a good imagination. A tidy plan. A very unusual murder. But...as Kirkus Reviews warns, 'on several levels, all is not as it seems.' Sometimes funny. Sometimes dark. Always intriguing. No only a suspense thriller, but a tale of love dangerously at the brink. Kirkus Reviews says, '...a masterful job of building suspense...Intelligent characterizations elevate the story, as does the twisty plot...keeps readers guessing until the end...An entertaining, well-written, and smart crime tale: An excellent read.' Reviews by readers: 'You think you know what's

Arctic Adaptations (9780874516333)

The common view of indigenous Arctic cultures, even among scholarly observers, has long been one of communities continually in ecological harmony with their natural environment. In Arctic Adaptations, Igor Krupnik dismisses the textbook notion of traditional societies as static. Using information from years of field research, interviews with native Siberians, and archaeological site visits, Krupnik demonstrates that these societies are characterized not by stability but by dynamism and significant evolutionary breaks. Their apparent state of ecological harmony is, in fact, a conscious survival strategy resulting from a prolonged and therefore successful process of human adaptation in one of the most extreme inhabited environments in the world. As their physical and cultural environment has changed--fluctuating reindeer and caribou herds, unpredictable weather patterns, introduction of firearms and better seacraft--Arctic communities have adapted by developing distinctive subsistence pr

Waking Up : Searching for Spirituality Without Religion (9781784160029)

'An extraordinary book . . . It will shake up your most fundamental beliefs about everyday experience, and it just might change your life.' Paul Bloom ___ For the millions of people who want spirituality without religion, Sam Harris's new book is a guide to meditation as a rational spiritual practice informed by neuroscience and psychology. Throughout the book, Harris argues that there are important truths to be found in the experience of contemplatives such as Jesus, Buddha and other saints and sages of history-and, therefore, that there is more to understanding reality than science and secular culture generally allow. Waking Up is part seeker's memoir and part exploration of the scientific underpinnings of spirituality. No other book marries contemplative wisdom and modern science in this way, and no author other than Sam Harris-a scientist, philosopher, and famous sceptic-could write it. ___ 'A demanding, illusion-shattering book.' Kirkus Reviews 'A pl
