Muito da linguagem corporal é inconsciente - e o movimento da sobrancelha, a inclinação da cabeça, a virada do braço podem e costumam dizer muito mais do que a palavra emitida verbalmente. Então, é sensato tentar entender melhor a linguagem corporal. Ao ler os outros com maior precisão e controlar mais o que projetamos, nossa vida profissional, social e amorosa só têm a se enriquecer.

Everyone was amazed Princess Diana was a good mother. She was an exception as the British Royal Family has not been exactly renowned for their good parenting - at least since the time of Queen Victoria and Albert, who was always telling his son Bertie how disappointed he was in him; King George V was often telling his sons how disappointed he was in them - and the tension between Prince Charles and his father has been the subject of much speculation. A mix of popular history and soap opera with a Royal twist, Bringing Them up Royal reveals for the first time how British Kings and Queens brought up their children and is bound to arouse wide attention and controversy. Drawing on much fascinating new material and discovered documents and records - going back to the Tudors - David Cohen tells a compelling and at times shocking story providing many arresting psychoanalytical insights and twists.

'David Cohen takes suburban life and turns it into a warped comedy with a body count, letting weirdness in, compellingly, irresistibly, until our sense of what's real is flickering on and off like a dodgy fluoro tube.' Nick EarlsHideaway Self Storage, located just off Brisbane's M1, is in decline. But manager Ken Guy and his assistant Bruce carry on with their daily rituals even as the facility falls apart around them. Lately, however, certain tenants have been disappearing off the face of the earth, leaving behind units full of valuable items. Ken has no idea where these rent defaulters have gone but he thinks he might be able to turn their abandoned 'things' into a nice little earner that could help save his business. But the disappearances are accompanied by strange occurrences such as Bruce's inexplicable late-night excursions, Ken's intensifying aversion to fluorescent lights, and Ken's girlfriend's intensifying aversion to Ken. While further along the motorway, construction of a rival facility - Pharaoh'sTomb Self Storage, part of a nationwide franchise - hints at a mysterious past and a precarious future. A surprisingly funny study of physical and mental deterioration, David Cohen's second novel is never quite what it seems. Sharply attuned to the absurdities of contemporary urban life, it is that rare literary beast, a comic drama that is at once intelligent and suspenseful, humorous and deep.'Few writers write about the world of work, and fewer still with the skill and mordant wit of David Cohen. Funny, disturbing, and wonderfully strange.' Ryan O' Neill

Disappearing Off the Face of the Earth

* How do we get from helpless baby to knowing, ironic teenager? * Is cognition a question of learning and environment or heredity? * What impact do television and computers have on cognitive development? Cognitive Development - how we learn to think, perceive, remember, talk, reason and learn - is a central topic in the field of psychology. In this highly readable book, David Cohen discusses the key theories, research and controversies that have shaped and informed our knowledge of how the child's mind develops. He shows how the questions and issues that have intrigued psychologists over the past hundred years or so relate to the child growing up in the 21st century. This book is for everyone who lives with, works with or studies children. Issues such as learning to read and write, performance in the classroom, and measuring intelligence and ability are covered, as are child crime and the development of morality. The effects on cognitive development of social change and increased exposure to television and computers are also discussed. How the Child's Mind Develops provides an integrated and thought-provoking account of the central issues in cognitive development. It will provide the professional, parent and student with an invaluable introduction to the development of the mind.

Cohen undertakes an in-depth investigation into the unanswered questions surrounding the death of Diana. His research produces startling new insights, including evidence of Dodi and Diana's possible drug taking, the impossibility of Henri Paul - the driver of the Mercedes - being as drunk as the French authorities insisted he was, and Paul's links to MI5. He also sheds light onto the mystery of infamous white fiat Uno said to have been in the tunnel with the Mercedes at the time of the crash, the fact that the speed camera which allegedly clocked the car travelling at over 70mph was actually not working, and a copy of the last ever photograph of Princess Diana, taken inside the tunnel, and previously unseen until this point. In this fascinating book Cohen also probes deeper into the mystery, tracing the owner of the Fiat Uno and unearthing the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death, and makes revelations about the dark underworld that the Princess of Wales had inadvertently become involved with - and how the dangerous figures she was mixing with could have played a part in her untimely death.

Why have vampires become such a feature of modern culture? Can vampire-like conditions be explained by medical research? Is there a connection between vampirism and Freud? The Psychology of Vampires presents a captivating look at the origins of vampires in myth and history, and the psychological theories which try to explain why they fascinate us. It traces the development of vampires from the first ever vampire tale, written by John Polidori in 1819, to their modern cultural legacy. Together with historical detail about Polidori’s eventful life, the book also examines the characteristics of vampires, and explores how and why people might identify as vampires today. From sanguinarians who drink blood, to psychic vampires who suck the energy from those around them, The Psychology of Vampires explores the absorbing connections between vampirism and psychology, theology, medicine and culture.

Like its Nuremberg counterpart, the Tokyo Trial was foundational in the field of international law. However, until now, the persistent notion of 'victor's justice' in the existing historical literature has made it difficult to treat it as such. David Cohen and Yuma Totani seek to redress this by cutting through persistent orthodoxies and ideologies that have plagued the trial. Instead they present it simply as a judicial process, and in so doing reveal its enduring importance for international jurisprudence. A wide range of primary sources are considered, including court transcripts, court exhibits, the majority judgment, and five separate concurring and dissenting opinions. The authors also provide comparative analysis of the Allied trials at Nuremberg, resulting in a comprehensive and empirically grounded study of the trial. The Tokyo Tribunal was a watershed moment in the history of the Asia-Pacific region. This groundbreaking study reveals it is of continuing relevance today.

A Bio-bibliography

Phil Ochs

Cum și-au crescut regii britanici copiii din 1066 până în prezent Lumea întreagă a fost uimită când Prințesa Diana s-a dovedit a fi o mamă bună și afectuoasă. Ea a constituit o excepție: Familia Regală a Marii Britanii este cunoscută mai curând pentru relațiile reci și chiar tensionate dintre generațiile de părinți și copii. Încă din vremea Reginei Victoria și a Regelui George al VI-lea, părinții și-au exprimat în mod fățiș dezamăgirea față de moștenitori. David Cohen folosește materiale noi și documente descoperite recent, ce datează încă din vremea dinastiei Tudor, și realizează în Educația regală o combinație captivantă între istorie și telenovelă. „O bogăție de anecdote – de la lecțiile de scrimă până la faptul că Prințul Charles a avut valet de la vârsta de trei ani.“
