The Art of True Healing details a powerful exercise that stimulates the body, mind, and spirit to help us create physical health and personal success. Originally published in 1932, predating by more than a half century the current interest in the mind’s power to heal, this concise work guides readers through what Israel Regardie calls the Middle Pillar meditation – a technique that combines the mystical concepts of yoga’s chakras and the Kabbalah’s Tree of Life to create a simple and effective healing tool.
In this edition, editor Marc Allen brings Regardie’s work into the twenty-first century – showing us how to unleash energy to heal our bodies and, ultimately, every part of our lives. Like few books before or since, The Art of True Healing provides both the theory and practices necessary for attaining well-being and fulfillment.

The Other Side of Power
Claude M. Steiner (1935 to 2017) was a bestselling author and psychotherapist who pioneered the popular field of Transactional Analysis, which involves analysis of an individual’s social interactions as a basis for understanding behavior. First published in 1981 and now back in print with a new package, <i>The Other Side of Power</i> is the sequel to Dr. Steiner’s influential <i>Scripts People Live</i> and feels as relevant today as ever. <p><p>
Power—we all want it, we all need it. We feel its effects in our business, family, and personal relationships. In this accessible volume, Dr. Steiner shows how everyone can be powerful without being power-hungry. Instead of chasing the increasingly empty and improbably “conventional American power dream,” as Dr. Steiner puts it, the other side of power—our own personal strengths—can be used to get us what we want. This humane approach is not predicated upon the exploitation or manipulation of others, which leads to power for the few and not the many. In clear terms and with specific examples, the author shows how to draw instead upon individual strengths to neutralize and turn to advantage situations that could otherwise result in feeling of powerlessness.<p><p>
<i>The Other Side of Power</i> teaches us that once we understand the nature of power, we can learn to deal with it more comfortably and use it toward more rewarding personal and professional relationships. Dr. Steiner’s classic in psychological theory offers a meaningful and practical guide to harnessing the other side of power.
Secret Service
To those who don’t really know her, Kate Henderson’s life must seem perfectly ordinary. But she is in fact a senior MI6 officer, who right now is nursing the political equivalent of a nuclear bomb. While heading up the Russia Desk of the Secret Intelligent Service, one of Kate’s undercover operations has revealed some alarming evidence. Evidence that a senior UK politician is a high level Russian informer. Determined to find out who it is, Kate must risk everything to get to the truth. Until a young woman is brutally murdered as a consequence, which puts Kate and her team under the spotlight. With blood on her hands, her reputation to uphold, her family hanging by a thread and a leadership election looming, Kate is quickly running out of options and out of time.
Clear My Name
Consistently praised for her incisive depictions of domestic family life with a twist of suspense, Paula Daly is one of Grove’s most promising suspense writers and her audience continues to grow as readers discover her backlist through ebook and marketing promotions. A gripping hybrid of domestic suspense and thriller, Clear My Name is easily one of Paula’s best books and confirms that her talent for writing surprising and engrossing crime fiction extends far beyond the family unit. For readers of Fiona Barton, Jill Mansell, Laura Lippman, Julia Spencer-Fleming, Lisa Scottoline, and Liane Moriarty. Tess is a terrific character I hated to say goodbye to at the end of the novel—like Gillian Anderson’s Stella Gibson in The Fall and Val McDermid’s Carol Jordan, she’s unsentimental, as tough as the boys, and has made her name in a very male world through sheer excellence; seeing her personal history unspool and learning how she got that way is a significant draw to the novel too. Her hard-boiled attitude is a perfect fit for fans of Kristen Lepionka’s Roxane Weary. ITV studios in the UK is filming a six-part series this fall based on Paula's previous novels Just What Kind of Mother Are You? and The Mistake I Made. Keep Your Friends Close was a finalist for the CWA Gold Dagger Award for Best Crime Novel of the Year. Just What Kind of Mother Are You? was a finalist for the Strand Magazine Critics Award for Best First Novel, named a Top Ten Fall Thriller by Publishers Weekly , a Library Journal top debut, and one of O Magazine ’s “Five Page-Turners That Will Surprise You More Than Once.” Daly’s novels have been internationally published in over thirteen languages.
Normandy '44
D-Day, June 6, 1944, and the seventy-six days of bitter fighting in Normandy that followed the Allied landing, have become the defining episode of World War II in the west—the object of books, films, television series, and documentaries. Yet as familiar as it is, as James Holland makes clear in his definitive history, many parts of the OVERLORD campaign, as it was known, are still shrouded in myth and assumed knowledge. <p> Drawing freshly on widespread archives and on the testimonies of eye-witnesses, Holland relates the extraordinary planning that made Allied victory in France possible; indeed, the story of how hundreds of thousands of men, and mountains of materiel, were transported across the English Channel, is as dramatic a human achievement as any battlefield exploit. The brutal landings on the five beaches and subsequent battles across the plains and through the lanes and hedgerows of Normandy—a campaign that, in terms of daily casualties, was worse than any in World War I—come vividly to life in conferences where the strategic decisions of Eisenhower, Rommel, Montgomery, and other commanders were made, and through the memories of paratrooper Lieutenant Dick Winters of Easy Company, British corporal and tanker Reg Spittles, Thunderbolt pilot Archie Maltbie, German ordnance officer Hans Heinze, French resistance leader Robert Leblanc, and many others. <p> For both sides, the challenges were enormous. The Allies confronted a disciplined German army stretched to its limit, which nonetheless caused tactics to be adjusted on the fly. Ultimately ingenuity, determination, and immense materiel strength—delivered with operational brilliance—made the difference. A stirring narrative by a pre-eminent historian, <i>Normandy ‘44</i> offers important new perspective on one of history’s most dramatic military engagements and is an invaluable addition to the literature of war.

The Old Man
A finalist for the Barry Award for Best Thriller Edgar Award-winning author Thomas Perry writes thrillers that move “almost faster than a speeding bullet” (Wall Street Journal). The Old Man is his latest whip-smart standalone novel.To all appearances, Dan Chase is a harmless retiree in Vermont with two big mutts and a grown daughter he keeps in touch with by phone. But most sixty-year-old widowers don’t have multiple driver’s licenses, savings stockpiled in banks across the country, and a bugout kit with two Beretta Nanos stashed in the spare bedroom closet. Most have not spent decades on the run. Thirty-five years ago, as a young hotshot in army intelligence, Chase was sent to Libya to covertly assist a rebel army. When the plan turned sour, Chase reacted according to his own ideas of right and wrong, triggering consequences he could never have anticipated. And someone still wants him dead because of them. Just as he had begun to think himself finally safe, Chase must reawaken his survival instincts to contend with the history he has spent his adult life trying to escape. Armed mercenaries, spectacularly crashed cars, a precarious love interest, and an unforgettable chase scene through the snow—this is lethal plotting from one of the best in crime fiction.
