THE HEART OF THE SCOTS:
LOVE, SEX AND ROMANCE IN
SCOTTISH HISTORY
The Outlander books of Diana Gabaldon (and the TV series by Ron B. Moore) awakened tens of millions of readers and viewers to the alluring romantic and sexual mores of historical Scotland, both fascinating and titillating in their awkward truce between traditional social order and the lusty spirit of the Highlands. But the real stories are just as fascinating, just as titillating, and packed with as much romance, humor and tragedy as Gabaldon's saga. This collection of 40 tales from Scotland's past journeys through the full range of Scottish intrigues of the heart and flesh, from the sex magic of the Druids to the royal courtships of Scotland's kings and queens, from the raucous adventures of Robert Burns to the sexual repressions of the Reformation. Steeped in history but seasoned with art and folklore, it's a trip through time worthy of Claire and Jamie.
THINGS I NEED TO SAY TO YOU
Adults with ADD must daily face a world not designed for them - a world where their unique gifts and traits often don't quite fit in. This can make things difficult at work, among friends, and especially in relationships. One big step the ADD adult can take to help their close relationships succeed is to set expectations with new partners and friends up front, by sharing their experience and explaining how the world looks through their eyes. By making clear the different ways they express themselves, and being candid about their struggles, they can help the new person in their lives know what to expect and react with greater understanding in the moment.This easy-to-read communications guidebook frames 40 aspects of the ADD adult's life in easy-to-understand terms, as well as providing a collection of effective metaphors ("Having ADD feels like my brain is a browser with way too many open tabs!") to help explain to someone new what to look forward to in the new relationship.
REALLY GREAT THINGS THAT I DIDN'T SAY
This collection of memorable quotations steers clear of the norm, focusing not upon the inspirational, endearing or maudlin, but upon words that challenge, provoke, illuminate and disturb - quotes that give pause, and beg for contemplation.
