Octopus Publishing Group The Postal Paths
Book SynopsisSeeing the hills, the crofts, villages and ruins only tells half the story. The people who worked, walked, lived and died here are the other half.Postal paths span the length and breadth of Britain - from the furthermost corners of the Outer Hebrides to the isolated communities clinging to the cliffs of the Rame Peninsula in south-east Cornwall. As far back as the 1660s, postmen and women have been moulding and forging paths to deliver posts to homes across Britain, no matter how remote.A chance remark by a farmer about a Postman''s Path led Alan Cleaver on a quest to discover more about this network of lanes, short-cuts and footpaths in the British landscape. What he found, through his walks, conversations and painstaking research, was more than just beautiful scenery. It was an incredible, forgotten slice of social history - the remarkable tales and toil of rural postmen and women trudging down lanes, over fields, and even across rivers to make sure the post always came on time.From women like Hannah Knowles, who began her job delivering letters in 1912 and would only miss three days through illness over the next 62 years of service, to WW1 veteran Matt Bendelow, who managed his 9-mile delivery route on one leg, Postal Paths paints a vivid picture of the people who not only served their communities but, more often than not, built them.From the rolling fells of Cumbria to Kent''s shingle coast, Postal Paths is a journey through Britain''s past - and its future.

Profile Books Ltd Psycho-Cybernetics (Updated and Expanded)
Book SynopsisThe landmark self-help bestseller that has inspired and enhanced the lives of more than 30 million readers. In this updated edition, with a new introduction and editorial commentary by Matt Furey, president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, the original 1960 text has been annotated and amplified to make Maxwell Maltz's message even more relevant for the contemporary reader. Maltz was the first researcher and author to explain how the self-image (a term he popularized) has complete control over an individual's ability to achieve, or fail to achieve, any goal. He developed techniques for improving and managing self-image visualization, mental rehearsal and relaxation which have informed and inspired countless motivational gurus, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for more than sixty years. Rooted in solid science, the classic teachings in Psycho-Cybernetics continue to provide a prescription for thinking and acting that lead to life-enhancing, quantifiable results.Trade ReviewThe self-help classic * Independent *All about the science of our thoughts and how they can be measured * Daily Express *Maltz's work influenced nearly every major "self-help" professional from Zig Ziglar to Brian Tracy to Tony Robbins -- James Clear, author of Atomic HabitsPsycho-Cybernetics has sold in its millions because it provides a scientific rationale for dream fulfilment ... the perfect self-help book for a technical culture -- Tom Butler-Bowdon * 50 Self-Help Classics *Before the mind can work efficiently, we must develop our perception of the outcomes we expect to reach.

He's far wiser and more profound than those who came after. This is a deeply insightful and classic book about your inner game * Entrepeneur.com *In 1960, surgeon Dr Maxwell Maltz discovered that unless the patient also worked on their self-identity and developed their feelings of self-worth, surgery would be useless, concluding that what was really needed was plastic surgery for the mind.In other words, unless we believe in ourselves, our performance in any field (and our self-respect) will be low.Since then, countless studies have been done that corroborate Dr Maltz's findings ... If we can create a ritual of talking to ourselves in a supportive, positive manner, then our self-belief will indeed strengthen * Forbes *Maxwell Maltz was an early exponent of the visualisation principle. Almost half a century ago, he captured a truth that can literally transform the way we think, act and communicate -- Bert Decker, entrepreneur and author of You’ve Got to Be Believed to Be Heard

His miserable experience is narrated in a single, rolling sentence to a patently bored bartender in a dreary Berlin bar. In Herman, a master trapper is asked to clear a forest's last 'noxious beasts.' Herman begins with great zeal, although in time he switches sides, deciding to track entirely new game... In Herman II, the same events are related from the perspective of strange visitors to the region, a group of hyper-sexualised aristocrats who interrupt their orgies to pitch in with the manhunt of poor Herman... These intense, perfect novellas, full of Krasznhorkai's signature sense of foreboding and dark irony, are perfect examples of his craft.Trade ReviewThe Last Wolf reveals what a light-footed and lucid writer Krasznahorkai is, how he entertains as well as disturbs. The book is an excellent short introduction to his fiction, much as Metamorphosis is to Kafka ... Krasznahorkai's method is to examine reality "to the point of madness" and he does so with majestic style and black comedy. -- Luke Brown * Financial Times *Unforgettably visceral and beautiful * Observer *Together, The Last Wolf and Herman raise a set of spiritual questions that affirms their author as one of the most important - and eccentric - writers working today. * Spectator *Melancholy, fantastical and entirely original ... seductive and comical, too -- Adam Thirlwell * Guardian *Exquisite ... claustrophobic, exhilarating and tinged with fatal comedy * New Statesman *Wonderful ... perfectly judged -- David Mills * Sunday Times *A visionary writer of extraordinary intensity and vocal range who captures the texture of present day existence in scenes that are terrifying, strange, appallingly comic and often shatteringly beautiful ... magnificent works of deep imagination -- Man Booker International Prize citationThe Last Wolf is a great introduction to the world of László Krasznahorkai. Enter here and keep going. -- Sjón[Krasznahorkai has] a magnificently strange and hypnotic way of thinking. * TLS *
