Body language accounts for well over 90 per cent of all communication, and can make or break relationships. By revealing the fascinating secrets of their body language, Child Watching helps you to really understand your children. It also shows you ways to boost children's confidence by making their own body language more effective, and vividly demonstrates how your non-verbal behaviour influences children's attitudes.

As a champion of trusting, loving relationships, this groundbreaking book advocates mutual respect and tenderness between lovers. A bestseller since it was first published in 1972, Alex Comfort's classic work celebrated human physical intimacy with such authority and clarity that a whole generation felt empowered to enjoy sex. No other book has come close in providing such an imaginative, uninhibited, and entertaining guide to lovemaking.The reasons for unfulfilling sexual relations today are different to those of Alex Comfort's original audience. This new edition of The Joy of Sex, fully revised and updated by respected sex expert and relationship psychologist Susan Quilliam, contains over 40 new entries, bringing Comfort's original, frank advice up to date for the modern readership.

This guide offers advice on how to learn to come to terms with a failing relationship, assess whether it is worth saving, and how to overcome relationship difficulties.

Ansprechend aufgemacht, recht gehaltvoll und dabei erstaunlich preiswert ist das vorliegende Kompendium der Körpersprache, das zur Zeit als eines der authentischsten und praktikabelsten auf dem Markt erscheint. Zunächst lernen die LeserInnen anhand großformatiger, gestellter, aber sehr lebensechter Fotos die Elemente der Körpersprache und ihre Verwendung als Ergänzung zur verbalen Kommunikation kennen. In 3 weiteren Kapiteln werden die Kontakte zwischen 2 und mehreren Personen, die typischen Verhaltensmuster in einer Paarbeziehung und die Körpersprache am Arbeitsplatz beleuchtet. Den Abschluß bildet ein Bildwörterbuch der gängigsten körpersprachlichen Signale. So werden in gelungener Weise die verschiedenen Ansätze von z.B. D. Morris (zuletzt BA 12/95) und kommunikationsbezogenen Ratgebern wie U. Gersbacher (BA 10/94) miteinander verknüpft. Trotz einiger weniger 'Übersetzungs-Irritationen' empfehlenswert. (2).
