The tenth-anniversary edition of the book that changed lives in profound ways, now with a new foreword and afterword. In 2006, a groundbreaking feature-length film revealed the great mystery of the universe—The Secret—and, later that year, Rhonda Byrne followed with a book that became a worldwide bestseller. Fragments of a Great Secret have been found in the oral traditions, in literature, in religions and philosophies throughout the centuries. For the first time, all the pieces of The Secret come together in an incredible revelation that will be life-transforming for all who experience it. In this book, you’ll learn how to use The Secret in every aspect of your life—money, health, relationships, happiness, and in every interaction you have in the world. You’ll begin to understand the hidden, untapped power that’s within you, and this revelation can bring joy to every aspect of your life. The Secret contains wisdom from modern-day teachers—men and women who have used it to achieve health, wealth, and happiness. By applying the knowledge of The Secret, they bring to light compelling stories of eradicating disease, acquiring massive wealth, overcoming obstacles, and achieving what many would regard as impossible.

Poems by Brandy Spitzer in the form of experimental metaphysics. This volume of poems tells the story of a young woman becoming a single mom. The poet speaks of the anxieties and ecstasies involved as she journeys through the various stages of her pregnancy and then the birth of her daughter. It is a heartfelt study both in poetic form and substance. While it is the story of one woman it is also the story of all women who experience the miracle of bringing a new life into the world.

Her insight, passion and sheer creativity shout out from every page of this wonderful book. She has taken Thinking Moves to a whole new level for our youngest children." - Bob House, Director, DialogueWorks "Beautiful Thinking captures perfectly something we would all do well to remember - that young children develop at an incredible rate and they are capable of much more than we often give them credit for. It's clear that Dulcie understands this, from both her personal and professional recollections, and she conveys this so well in her book." - Nick Chandley, 'Education consultant to the BBC programmes 'What's the Big Idea?', 'Feeling Better' and 'The World According to Kids'"This book draws on the author's in-depth knowledge of young children and her extensive experience of adapting the Thinking Moves approach in the early years context. It offers practitioners and parents valuable insights into how young children and babies make sense of the world, and provides a highly practical and user-friendly resource for 'metacognition rich' learning opportunities. For teacher educators, 'Beautiful Thinking' offers a unique approach to strengthen students' teaching and planning skills, and exemplify academic input on talk and learning." - Dr Fufy Demissie, Senior Lecturer in Early Childhood Education"Beautiful Thinking deals with really important issues, especially for the times that we are living in, but is written in such an accessible, informal way that I feel we could be chatting over a cup of tea. It is vitally important that our children are taught these critical thinking skills, and this book provides very clear, structured guidance on how to achieve this at any age. This book should be required reading for teachers of all age groups. However, Beautiful Thinking very cleverly shows how it is never too early in a child's life to begin to develop thinking skills." - Dr Ann-Marie McNicholas, Specialist Teacher and Author

To get the best answer-in business, in life-you have to ask the best possible question. Innovation expert Warren Berger shows that ability is both an art and a science. It may be the most underappreciated tool at our disposal, one we learn to use well in infancy-and then abandon as we grow older. Critical to learning, innovation, success, even to happiness-yet often discouraged in our schools and workplaces-it can unlock new business opportunities and reinvent industries, spark creative insights at many levels, and provide a transformative new outlook on life. It is the ability to question-and to do so deeply, imaginatively, and “beautifully.” In this fascinating exploration of the surprising power of questioning, innovation expert Warren Berger reveals that powerhouse businesses like Google, Nike, and Netflix, as well as hot Silicon Valley startups like Pandora and Airbnb, are fueled by the ability to ask fundamental, game-changing questions. But Berger also shares human stories of people using questioning to solve everyday problems-from “How can I adapt my career in a time of constant change?” to “How can I step back from the daily rush and figure out what really makes me happy?” By showing how to approach questioning with an open, curious mind and a willingness to work through a series of “Why,” “What if,” and “How” queries, Berger offers an inspiring framework of how we can all arrive at better solutions, fresh possibilities, and greater success in business and life.

Questions about the authenticity and authority of sunna have long been of central importance to the study of Islam, especially to those concerned with Islamic law. In this fascinating study, Daniel Brown traces the emergence of modern debates over sunna, focusing in particular on Egypt and Pakistan where these controversies have raged most fiercely, and assesses the implications of new approaches to the law on contemporary movements of Islamic revival. Using the case of modern Islam as a starting-point, the author considers how adherents of any great tradition deal with change.

In her first book, Susan Lee bridges the Law of Attraction with God's plan. Secular teachings of the law of attraction focus only on efforts from within and universe manifestation as the paths to financial freedom and a fulfilled life. God's Law of Attraction demonstrates that Christians too can have life purpose, goals, accomplishment; and yes, financial abundance—without guilt or materialism taking over. In God's Law of Attraction, Susan uses numerous Bible story themes to demonstrate God's genuine interest in providing a rich and fulfilling life for his children. Then, she applies how God's Law of Attraction works in our lives daily—whether we recognize its divine origins or not. Susan's interpretations of the stories result in a series of God-given steps that you can use every day to live your walk with God and enjoy life and its many gifts. Specifically, you will discover how to: Live in true abundance without guilt because God wants you to succeed! Find joy in your relationships again by releasing negative vibrations that have hurt in the past Use the Natural Law God Himself put in place to help us set goals and achieve them Trust in God on a new and exciting level Apply five steps: ask, believe, act, allow and receive to achieve God’s best! “Finally a book that recognizes the law of attraction as God's and provides real world guidance, as well as tools, to assist Christians in asking for and recognizing God's blessings.” — Carol Bills “Made me look at the law of attraction differently. I especially appreciated the tips and strategies for how to carry out the 5 steps (Ask, Believe, Act, Allow, Receive) effectively.” — Anonymous
