David Rogers

Grahame Brown

Back pain is very hard (often impossible) to diagnose and to specify, hence heavy painkillers are thrown at people. But the only way to beat the pain is to understand it. Based on cutting-edge research into back pain and the psychology of pain itself, David Rogers and Grahame Brown have set up the Functional Restoration Service at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham – the UK’s leading centre for back pain. Here they have developed the pioneering BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL approach: 
 
BIO – How your body processes pain; what physical triggers you have and why; where your body holds pain 
PSYCHO – where your pain is coming from; what exactly your pain is; the power of your mind to deal with and stop pain 
SOCIAL – all the environmental factors that will contribute to your back pain, and how, why and when to change them 
 
Based on this revolutionary and already hugely successful approach, Back to Life offers a whole new way of dealing with back pain: 
 
- Understand the psychology of pain 
- Debunk the myths 
- Find the source of your pain 
- Manage your pain – including all the emotions and anxiety that go with it 
- Master exercises and stretches 
- Identify and solve the social factors 
- Get lasting relief

Andrew Fuller

We all want our child to be the best they can be, but how can we discover and encourage their natural talents? 
 
Clinical psychologist Andrew Fuller believes that every child has an innate sense of inquisi&shy;tiveness, creativity and lateral thinking that forms the basis of genius. However, social conditioning and school life can lead to a desire to conform and fit in which can squash their curiosity. 
 
For parents and grandparents, Andrew Fuller’s new book holds the way to unlock their child’s genius. No the answer is not homework, more after school tutoring or blaming the school. Yes the answer is thinking, talking and listening, and delightfully making mistakes together. 
 
Covering the age range of 2 to 18, Andrew draws on the latest research and his own extensive work with thousands of children in private practice. He shows parents how to recognise the qualities in their child that predict genius – creativity, motivation, determination, imagination and the willingness – and build on these essential foundations regardless of which field their talents lie in.

The Secrets of Enduring Love focuses on what couples actually do to maintain, nurture and nourish their relationships. The reader will be taken on a journey through different ways of doing relationships, focusing on the key themes which came out of the research: everyday acts of kindness and appreciation; the importance of home; communication and conflict management; sex and intimacy; incorporating others into the relationship (children, pets, friends, hobbies); and telling your own love story. 
 
One of the key messages from the research is that different things work for different people, and at different times in the relationship. For this reason the book focuses on the differnt practices that we might bring into our own relationships, helping us to recognise the small things which we may be already doing but which ordinarily go by unnoticed, and offering a helping hand to find out what works best for us.

How to make relationships last

Michelle Brody

Relationship woes are complex and destructive, and often deeply hurtful. Over years of research, clinical psychologist Dr Michelle Brody has found that the same 12 fights play out time and time again between couples, such as the ‘Partner Improvement’ Fight, the ‘You Don’t Care About Me’ Fight, and the ‘Difficult Relatives’ Fight. By addressing these areas, couples can immediately grasp the destructive cycles in their relationships. 
 
 But advice and strategies alone aren't enough to help couples solve their relationship problems: they need to see with their own eyes why they are trapped in damaging cycles of behaviour in order to find a way back to each other. Dr Brody has already used her illustrations to help thousands of couples in her clinics, and this unique book presents her psychological findings through playful yet pertinent illustrations. 
 
It’s a one-of-a-kind relationship manual – fresh, concise, easy to use, and results oriented.

Brené Brown

The powerful and inspiring book from the bestselling author of Dare to Lead and The Gifts of Imperfection, showing you how to have the courage to embrace fear, failure and vulnerability to create a life you love. 
 
'Thanks to Brené Brown I learned how to be vulnerable’ Miranda Hart, actress, comedian, and bestselling author of I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest With You 
 
‘A life-changing read’ Red Magazine 
 
Struggle can be our greatest call to courage. 
 
The physics of vulnerability is simple: If we are brave enough often enough, we will fall. This is a book about what it takes to get back up. 
 
Building on Brené’s groundbreaking research on vulnerability and daring, Rising Strong presents an inspiring process to rise from falls, overcome mistakes and face hurt in a way that brings more wisdom and meaning into your life. 
 
Walking into our stories of hurt can feel dangerous. But the process of regaining our footing in the midst of struggle is where our courage is tested and our values forged. Our stories of struggle can be big or small, but regardless of their magnitude or circumstance, the rising strong process is the same: We reckon with our emotions and get curious about what we’re feeling; we rumble with our stories until we get to a place of truth; and we live this process, every day, until it becomes a practice and creates nothing short of a revolution in our lives. 
 
Rising strong after a fall is how we cultivate wholeheartedness. It’s the process that teaches us the most about who we are. 
 
Written with Brown’s trademark mix of research, storytelling and honesty, Rising Strong is the powerful, personal and practical guide to embracing fear and failure and creating the life that we love.

Cate Campbell

Sex and intimacy are what make couple relationships special and different. We may even measure the quality of the relationship by how intimate we feel or how good the sex is. This can be wonderfully reassuring when it goes well, but we all have times in our lives and relationships when we don’t feel so close. When sex isn’t working well or isn’t happening, confidence in the relationship can ebb away too. Yet there is plenty you can do to turn things around and recapture the fading intimacy. 
 
In The Relate Guide to Sex and Intimacy, Cate Campbell takes a realistic look at modern relationships, steering you through practical exercises, examples, quizzes and talking points to help give your sexual self and your relationship an intimacy makeover. Comprehensively tackling the issues that challenge sex and intimacy, this book will both equip you to understand and manage problems when they arise and to make a good sex life even better.
