Braha, James T.
ANCIENT HINDU ASTROLOGY FOR THE MODERN WESTERN ASTROLOGER

Imprint: Hermetician Press,U.S., 1986
Binding: Hardcover

"Ever since my first journey to India I have desired to share the knowledge I was fortunate enough to receive. I have also felt a need to dispel some rather major misconceptions, the main one being the fact that Hindu astrolo gy is extraordinarily difficult. This is not true, as will soon hopefully b e revealed. Although I have always been most fascinated with astrology beca use of the philosophical implications and revelations which can be extracte d. I have done my best to keep philosophy from this work, as that is not my present purpose. It is my intention only to present Hindu astrology in a w ay that it deserves to be presented, which is long overdue -- a way which w estern astrologers can understand and utilise, and which will clear away th e mystery and finally put into perspective the enormously complex technique s which make up the bulk of most textbooks on the subject. Having worked wi th both Hindu and western systems, it is my experience that the two greatly complement each other and together form the basis for a complete and profo und astrology." -- taken from the Introduction., Very Good/Very Good

After presenting a self-test that helps read ers determine whether they suffer from this syndrome, she goes on to descri be some of the false premises that contribute to its development, e.g., den ying dependency needs in personal relationships because of the need for sel f-reliance on the job.

MY BOOKY WOOK 2: THIS TIME IT'S PERSONAL

Imprint: Harper, 2011
Binding: Paperback

A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. In the sequel to Russell's best-selling biography 'My Booky Wook' we follow the now sober but still scandalous, sex-fuelled star on his electrifying rise to international fame. A roller coaster ride through tours, films, stand up and tabloids - this time, it's personal. Rarely has a sequel delivered on the promise of the original with such literary and comic gusto. In Booky Wook 2: This Time It's Personal, Russell Brand takes off where his international best-seller My Book Wook left off. Brand is sober and, after dedicating his life and compromising his sanity in the pursuit of fame, he has had his first taste of national notoriety. Does fame bring happiness and inner peace? Not exactly, but it does mean a lot of sex. It also ushers in an unforgettable and raucous ride through chat shows, tabloid scandals, and Hollywood, all the while detailing Brand's search for the contentment that fame can't quite grant. Booky Wook 2 is a "celebrity memoir" unlike any you've read before: more clever and inventive than ever, Russell Brand explores the consequences of massive stardom just as he demonstrates the power of language and wit to make sense of it all., Very Good

Bee must face a boy from her past with a maturity and levelheadedness that she didn't know existed, while Carmen feels like she's making the wrong impression on a stranger she meets in the hospital. It's time for Lena to leave the nest, and that means challenging herself to make the right decision. And Tibby is having some serious trouble coming to terms with her feelings about Brian. All four bravely meet their challenges head-on, taking comfort in, as always, the Pants. This is the third book in the best-selling Sisterhood series., Near Fine

Brazelton, T Berry
ON BECOMING A FAMILY

Imprint: Bantam Doubleday Dell, 1982
Binding: Paperback

The passionate attachment between parents and babies, as well as the inevit able anxieties, begin well before birth. Dr. T. Berry Brazelton, whom Time calls "the nation's preeminent baby doctor" shows how this turmoil prepares parents for the arrival of the child and how to survive and enjoy those im portant early months when a new relationship begins and a new family is bor n. As the cornerstone of his classic trilogy, which continues with Infants And Mothers and Toddlers and Parents, this revised an up-to-date edition of On Becoming A Family supports parents through pregnancy, birth, and the first few months. Dr. Brazelton examines the great adjustments parents must make in their relationships with each other and with the new baby; the gradual (not instant) process of bonding; the normal competitions between parents and caregivers; and the effects on all this of Caesarean section, premature birth, single parenthood, and a child born with a potential disability. This edition also includes astounding new insight into the abilities of the newborn, and an entirely new chapter on attachment in adoptive families., Near Fine
