"Love Bombing" is a radical new method for resetting the emotional thermostats of troubled children and their parents, setting them on a much happier trajectory. It is simple to do, easily explained and works for both severe and mild problems from aged three to early teenage. Many, if not most, parents feel that their children may have missed out in some way during the early years. Offering a simple, relatively trouble-free self-help method for putting that right is what parents are waiting for. "This book is written in highly accessible language", assures Oliver James. "The method is explained as simply as possible, illustrated with cases". "Love Bombing is a very simple technique which helps most children from aged three to early teenage. Because so many parents are, or have had, periods of living very busy or miserable or complicated lives, most of us need to reconnect with our children from time to time. Love Bombing does the job," explains James.

Before you succeed at parenting, you need to succeed as a couple! Baby Bomb is the resource you need when a new baby turns your life—and your romantic relationship—upside down. A baby is a blessing—and also a completely life-altering event. If you’re like many new parents, nothing could have fully prepared you for the exhaustion of late-night feedings, the explosive diapers, the evaporation of your free time, the pure joy, and the moments of pure terror. In the midst of these hazy, early months, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed. And when you’re overwhelmed, it’s easy to put your romantic relationship on the back burner. But, more and more, research shows that in order to be the best parents you can be, you and your partner need to make sure that your needs—as a couple—are also met. Written by a psychologist and relationship expert, Baby Bomb offers powerful tools based in psychology and neurobiology to help you and your partner co-parent and co-partner as a solid and supportive team—while also cultivating mad love for each other! You’ll find more than just “tips” for better parenting and partnering; you’ll discover how a secure-functioning relationship is essential for raising happy, healthy kids. This isn’t a book with advice about how to have a romantic candlelit dinner while your baby is screaming in the other room. It’s a road map for getting on the same page about your expectations as parents, about your needs as humans, and about how to maintain a strong and lasting relationship in the face of, well, a baby bomb.

Three Libretti—Ranging In Setting From Ancient Jerusalem To Pre-Apocalyptic London—From An Acclaimed Poet This volume of libretti marks new work—and new terrain—for James Fenton. Commissioned by companies in New York and England, these musical pieces make the most of the poet's poignant, witty, and characteristically lyrical verse. Whether evoking modern-day London on the edge of apocalypse in The Love Bomb, a timeless land beyond the moon in this version of Salman Rushdie's children's novel Haroun and the Sea of Stories, or ancient Jerusalem in his stirring oratorio The Fall of Jerusalem, which was composed to mark the millennium, Fenton's lucid storytelling and stylish wordplay bring these pieces vividly to life—with equal power in performance or on the page. Haroun and the Sea of Stories was commissioned by the New York City Opera and had its premiere at Lincoln Center in September 2003. "[James Fenton] writes as no one else dares to--with clarity, wit, and the simplest of rhymes."--Voice Literary Supplement

"Ken Lanning's memoir can be read as an autobiography of one of the giants in criminal behavior analysis, as a treatise on child sexual abuse, or as the story of how his romance with his beloved wife Kathy shaped his Navy career, which opened the door to an extraordinary FBI career. Here, he tackles past and current social controversies with his characteristic thoughtfulness, concern for objectivity, humility, and humor." Park Dietz, MD, PhD, Forensic Psychiatrist. "Ken Lanning was one of the best instructors the FBI Behavioral Science Unit (BSU) ever had and he went on to became one of the leading experts in the country on the behavioral analysis of crimes against children. This book is the story of his life leading up to his assignment to the BSU and how he developed his expertise and inspired others during his 20-year career in the Unit as a bridge from the old BSU to the new Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU). I highly recommend the book to anyone wanting to better understand the evolution of the FBI BSU and the skills needed to objectively conduct professional behavioral analysis." John Douglas, Retired FBI Unit Chief, FBI Profiler, and author of Mindhunter. "Ken Lanning's career was to the world of child molestation what "Silence of the Lambs" was to serial killers. As an FBI agent in the Behavioral Science Unit, he spent decades confronting people who sexually victimize children. Ken's research, publishing, teaching, consulting and courtroom testimony have influenced more cases than can be counted. Read this book to enter his world, and then you will understand what he did, why he did it, and why it made a difference to protecting children." Lt. Bill Walsh, Dallas Police Department (Retired), Coordinator of the Crimes Against Children Conference. This book describes the author's journey from growing up in the Bronx, NY and wanting to get married, to becoming a Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) technician, then one of the first FBI bomb technicians, and finally the leading expert concerning the sexual victimization of children in the noted FBI Behavioral Science Unit (BSU). The author's evolving "profiling" career, spanning from the old Behavioral Science Unit of Silence of the Lambs to the new Behavioral Analysis Unit of Criminal Minds, lasted longer than that of any other FBI agent doing behavioral analysis. The book is relevant to a wider audience beyond readers simply interested in true-crime stories. The story of the author's journey illuminates how to better identify fake news and alternative facts, process and circulate information, and form opinions and make decisions about important issues. "In this engaging story of his personal and professional life, readers learn of the challenges and triumphs of his career and the overarching life lessons he learned along the way - lessons that will help anyone think more critically." Bette Bottoms, Professor University of Illinois at Chicago.
