How easy would your job be if people working in your sector wanted to work for you rather than any other employer? How much more productive would your organisation be? How much more would you enjoy your job? Some companies can tell you. They are the companies that the "Sunday Times" has listed as the "Best Places to Work." They are companies as big as Asda and Microsoft, or as small as the Bromford Housing Association. They have managed, through hard work and dedication, to create an environment where employees feel valued and respected; where they feel so connected to the company that they go

Why is it that the relationships we care about most - those with our intimate partners - often seem doomed to fail? Why do we feel compelled to punish those closest to us who love and appreciate our real qualities? In "Fear of Intimacy", the authors bring almost 40 years of clinical experience to bear in challenging the usual ways of thinking about couples and families. They argue that relationships fail not for the commonly cited reasons, but because psychological defences formed in childhood act as a barrier to closeness in adulthood. A wide range of cross-generational case studies and power

When Ann Leary and her husband, then unknown actor-comedian Denis Leary, flew to London in the early nineties for a brief getaway during Ann’s second trimester of pregnancy, neither anticipated the adventure that was in store for them. The morning after their arrival, Ann’s water broke as they strolled through London’s streets. A week later their son, Jack, was born weighing only two pounds, six ounces, and it would be five long months before mother and son could return to the States. In the meantime, Ann became an unwitting yet grateful hostage to Britain’s National He

Timothy Leary--Harvard University psychologist, social change activist, psychedelia enthusiast, and cyberspace pioneer--died on May 31, 1996, as this edition of Psychedelic Prayers and Other Meditations was in progress. Translated "from English to psychedelese" in 1965, these 56 poems were inspired by the Tao Te Ching (Way of Life), ancient spiritual writings of Taoist philosopher Lao Tsu. Leary believed Tsu’s writings would serve as an excellent guidebook for psychedelic sessions, so--armed with nine English translations--he sat under a tree in India and attempted to distill the works&#
