Gustave Doré (1832-83) was perhaps the most successful illustrator of the nineteenth century. His Doré Bible was a treasured possession in countless homes, and his best-received works continued to appear through the years in edition after edition. His illustrations for Dante's Divine Comedy constitute one of his most highly regarded efforts and were Doré's personal favorites.
The present volume reproduces with excellent clarity all 135 plates that Doré produced for The Inferno, Purgatory, and Paradise. From the depths of hell onto the mountain of purgatory and up to the empyrean realms of paradise, Doré's illustrations depict the passion and grandeur of Dante's masterpiece in such famous scenes as the embarkation of the souls for hell, Paolo and Francesca (four plates), the forest of suicides, Thaïs the harlot, Bertram de Born holding his severed head aloft, Ugolino (four plates), the emergence of Dante and Virgil from hell, the ascent up the mountain, the flight of the eagle, Arachne, the lustful sinners being purged in the seventh circle, the appearance of Beatrice, the planet Mercury, and the first splendors of paradise, Christ on the cross, the stairway of Saturn, the final vision of the Queen of Heaven, and many more.
Each plate is accompanied by appropriate lines from the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow translation of Dante's work.

An engaging, accessible introduction to Buddhism for those who are looking to explore a new spiritual tradition or understand the roots of their mindfulness practice.

Are you curious about Buddhism but find yourself met with scholarly texts or high-minded moralizing every time you try to pick up a book about it? Well, if so, relax. This is no ordinary introduction to Buddhism; there are none of the saccharine platitudes and dense pontification that you may have come to expect. Buddhish is a readable introduction for complete newcomers that provides an objective, streamlined overview of the tradition--from unpacking the Four Noble Truths to understanding what "nirvana" actually means. For those who have already dipped their toes into the tradition through the practice of mindfulness or meditation, this guide will help you create a more well-rounded and informed experience by delving into the history of the Buddhist traditions that shape a mindful practice.

Buddhist scholar Dr. Pierce Salguero analyzes the ideas and philosophy of the complex tradition through the eyes of both a critic and an admirer. He shares anecdotes from his time at a Thai monastery, stories from the years he spent living throughout Asia, and other personal experiences that have shaped his study of Buddhism. Through this guide, readers will have the opportunity to develop an approach to practice that is not quite Buddhist but Buddhish.

Through engaging and lighthearted stories, Dr. Salguero breaks down 20 central principles of the tradition, including:

- Awakening
- Suffering
- Doubt
- Karma
- Buddha Nature

Have you ever heard of your inner child? Well, this is the classic book that started it all. In 1987, Charlie Whitfield's breakthrough concept of the child within-that part of us which is truly alive, energetic, creative and fulfilled-launched the inner child movement. Healing the Child Within describes how the inner child is lost to trauma and loss, and how by recovering it, we can heal the fear, confusion and unhappiness of adult life. Eighteen years and more than a million copies sold later, Healing the Child Within is a perennial selling classic in the field of psychology. And it is even more timely today than it was in 1987. Recent brain research, particularly on the effects of trauma on the brain of developing children, has supported Whitfield's intuitive understanding as a psychiatrist.

Renowned neuroscientist Dr. Norman Farb and clinical psychologist Dr. Zindel Segal reveal how to break out of negative patterns by engaging your senses.

For many of us, daily life has stopped making sense. Super-efficient routines that once served us well now stress us out. Patterns of judgment and negative thinking lead to downward emotional spirals. For others, life has simply lost its spark. Where does change come from when habit lets you down?

Whether we're struggling with a problem, a bad habit, or life in general, we often think we need to be resilient by "toughing it out" or "trying harder." But when we do that, our brains double down on the thinking patterns that got us stuck in the first place--even when they clearly aren't working for us. Fortunately, the science of sensation provides the key.

In Better in Every Sense, neuroscientist Norman Farb and clinical psychologist Zindel Segal explain that the brain has two networks--the rapid problem-solving (habit) network and the sensory network, which is devoted to fresh insight. By tuning into new and everyday sensations--from the feeling of our feet on a crowded street to the sound of birdsong in the park--we can engage the sensory network. When we're stressed or stuck, we can pause to notice and feel the dynamic, vibrant world around us and boost our resilience, well-being, health, and creativity wherever we are, in the moment.

Grounded in decades of scientific research and filled with simple exercises and practical mental techniques for mastering "sense foraging," Better in Every Sense explores the power of sensory experiences to liberate us from our ruts and dead ends--and help us successfully handle all of life's challenges.

Really? Sex life begins after 60? Believe it or not, it's true!

There are those moments in everyone's life when you are "there." Remember that moment when you said "I do," and kissed? The moment when you first held your baby in your arms? The sunset you watched together with your partner, your head on his shoulder? Maybe that great tennis game when you were "on" and couldn't lose?

What do each of those moments have in common? You were "there," right there in the moment. Without a thought for the moment before or the moment after. You were living, really living with every fiber of your being. Living with everything you had.

Those are the best moments in life -- what we call "Being Here Now." We can help you bring that into your love life. We are talking about those timeless moments when the world disappears and it's just the two of you sharing your bodies, your touch, your scent, your taste. Living each second fully as it happens. We are talking about toe-curling, mind-exploding white heat as you reach for a glimpse of heaven. We are talking about experiences that leave you spent and breathless and bring a happy smile and a spring to your step for the rest of the day.

Incendiary sex over 60? Yes, you can have it.

You don't need a perfect body. You don't need pointy breasts or firm buttocks or an ever-ready erection. The bodies you have will do just fine. You only need to be able to create that moment where you aren't worried about what you look like or what your partner is thinking or the argument you had with your sister. You just need to Be Here Now.

We can help you with that.

We show you how to temporarily take away the little pains and annoyances that come with life and age, and how to create a space made to hold those moments. We show you how to get out of your own head, how to stop the spinning dialog. We have some exercises to help that we call "Mating Rituals." But you won't need to keep a notebook to remember them, or don the scuba flippers or a spider man outfit. We aren't going to teach you new sexual positions, or complicated fantasies that include whips and handcuffs. Instead we are going to teach you how to create that space where you can be safe, naked, together, and living moment to moment. You can take it from there.
