CAT DADDY<br />
How One Very Special Cat Fixed One<br />
Very Broken man<br />
JaCKson galaXY<br />
The star of Animal Planet’s popular TV show My Cat<br />
from Hell shares the inspiring story of one petite grayand-white<br />
cat who turned his life around—as well as<br />
his singular advice for living with, caring for, and loving<br />
your own special feline friend (or friends!).<br />

Praise for Jackson Galaxy and My Cat from Hell<br />
“Galaxy might not seem like a typical ‘cat person’—but who better<br />
than a New Yorker inked with images of cats and his own set<br />
of whiskers to mediate between a fussy feline and its guardian?”<br />
—New York Post<br />
“If you have a cat from hell, Jackson Galaxy may be the guy who<br />
can get little Mittens to start acting normal.”<br />
—aol news<br />
Jackson Galaxy, aka “Cat Daddy” and star of Animal Planet’s<br />
My Cat from Hell, isn’t what you might expect as far as<br />
“cat experts” are concerned (as The New York Times recently<br />
noted, he “looks like a Hells Angel”). Yet Galaxy’s ability to connect<br />
with even the most troubled feline—not to mention the<br />
stressed-out humans attempting to carve out some semblance<br />
of sanity in the wake of its wrath—is truly astonishing.<br />
In this book, Galaxy shares the unlikely story of how he came<br />
to be known as “Cat Daddy,” focusing on his thirteen-year-long<br />
relationship with an incredible cat named Benny. When Benny<br />
arrived in his life, Galaxy was a down-and-out rock musician<br />
with a drug problem and a part-time job at an animal shelter.<br />
When Benny’s previous owner handed him to Galaxy in a cardboard<br />
carrier, Benny had seen better days—his pelvis had just<br />
been shattered by the wheels of a car—but the woman declared<br />
that he’d been “un-bondable” from day one. Nothing could have<br />
been further from the truth.<br />
A poignant account of two broken beings who fixed each other,<br />
Cat Daddy is laced throughout with Galaxy’s amazing “Cat Whisperer”<br />
advice for understanding what cats need most from us<br />
humans in order to live happier and healthier lives.<br />

JaCKsoN Galaxy, the star of Animal Planet’s<br />
My Cat from Hell, has been called everything from a cat trainer<br />
to a cat shrink. Drawing on his years of<br />
experience working in cat shelters and<br />
helping cat owners, Galaxy and his selfproclaimed<br />
“off-the-wall” methods offer<br />
people a deeper understanding of why<br />
their cats act the way they do. Jackson<br />
teaches classes to help deepen the<br />
human-feline bond and maintains<br />
a private feline consulting practice<br />
in Los Angeles.<br />

INSPIRED &<br />
UNSTOPPABLE<br />
Wildly Succeeding in Your Life’s Work!<br />
Tama KieVes<br />
What if everything you thought you needed to do<br />
to succeed was actually standing<br />
in the way of your success?<br />

“You are meant to succeed in the work you love. Your<br />
desire will take you all the way.”<br />
—Tama Kieves<br />
tama Kieves, Harvard lawyer turned career coach, has<br />
spent the last decade crossing the United States and<br />
Canada, speaking to tens of thousands of people and<br />
sharing her inspiring story of moving from a career that was killing<br />
her to a life that has uplifted her, chronicled in her first book,<br />
This Time I Dance! Creating the Work You Love. She has mentored<br />
thousands of people who, with her help, have followed their<br />
passion and are living their dream lives.<br />
And now she takes us to the next step in our journey.<br />
Within you is your purpose—your destiny—which will lead<br />
you to your greatest fulfillment and success. Kieves discovered<br />
along her journey that the way to success is an inspired path, not<br />
a linear one. She brings her ideas and actions together in her latest<br />
work, revealing that it is only in unleashing this purpose that<br />
you can become truly happy and satisfied.<br />
Through these new teachings, Kieves will help you move into<br />
your “brilliant power.” She shares the mental and emotional impact<br />
of this journey—the fears, doubts, and “choice points” that<br />
arise—and how to become an unstoppable warrior for your life’s<br />
work and desires. You will learn how to stay connected to your<br />
desires and shift your innermost thinking. When you do, you will<br />
naturally outpace anything any expert could ever tell you. You<br />
don’t need the steps when you have the moves . . .<br />
Beautifully written, Inspired & Unstoppable includes success<br />
stories, as well as practices that will foster positive momentum,<br />
and “Inspired Successisms”—delightful, quick bites of wisdom<br />
peppered throughout. It also offers guidelines on how to create<br />
your own “Inspired Success Circle”—a way of moving forward<br />
with the support of friends and loved ones.<br />
Practical, empowering, inspirational, galvanizing—Inspired<br />
& Unstoppable is the touchstone to (finally) living your wildest<br />
dreams and greatest desires.<br />

Using recent breakthroughs in neuro science,<br />
this guide creates an easy-to-follow<br />
program to end writer’s block and<br />
other self-defeating behaviors.<br />
Do you want to write, but find yourself unable to get<br />
started? Edit your first page over and over, and feel unable<br />
to move on? Keep your schedule so full that you<br />
don’t have time to write?<br />
You’re not alone. Many writers are plagued by “writer’s resistance,”<br />
a group of behaviors that prevent us from being able<br />
to get words down on the page. Writer’s resistance can make<br />
us feel adrift, hopeless, discouraged, and ready to give up.<br />
The good news is that you can beat writer’s resistance. You<br />
just need to learn what’s going on inside your brain—and harness<br />
that knowledge to develop a productive writing habit.<br />
A writing and creativity teacher for more than twenty years,<br />
Rosanne Bane has given thousands of writers the tools to bust<br />
through self-defeating writing behaviors. In Around the Writer’s<br />
Block, Bane helps us understand where writer’s resistance<br />
comes from: the “fight-or-flight” responses hardwired into our<br />
brains, which can make us desperate to flee the source of our<br />
anxiety (writing) by any means possible. Using the most recent<br />
breakthroughs in neuroscience and a three-part plan that helps<br />
readers develop new regular writing habits, Bane coaches us<br />
on how to rewire our brain’s responses to the anxiety produced<br />
by writing—turning writing from a source of stress and anxiety<br />
into a source of joy and personal growth.<br />
Writer’s resistance doesn’t have to be permanent. Let the<br />
power of habit rewire your brain, and become the writer you’ve<br />
always wanted to be.<br />

THE NOT-SO-NUDE<br />

& Other morsels of misinformation from the<br />
History Books<br />
DaViD haVilanD<br />
The bestselling coauthor of Why Dogs<br />
Eat Poop & Other Useless or Gross<br />
Information About the Animal Kingdom<br />
exposes history’s greatest tall tales,<br />
half-truths, and legends.<br />
It is said that history is written by the winners. However,<br />
“winners” don’t always make the best historians. Enter<br />
David Haviland—historian, journalist, and writer—to set<br />
the record straight. In his quirky, inimitable style, Haviland<br />
separates fact from fiction regarding some of history’s most<br />
well-known people and events, such as:<br />
u Lady Godiva—By far, history’s most famous nudist<br />
equestrian. But how nude was she, really? And how did<br />
this same legend give rise to the term “Peeping Tom”?<br />
u The Boston Tea Party—What was the cause of this<br />
famous “party” that wasn’t really a party? (Hint: If you<br />
guessed a rise in taxes, you’re dead wrong!)<br />
u World War I—Did a directionally challenged chauffeur<br />
spark the war to end all wars?<br />
u The World’s Best Golf Score—This record-breaking,<br />
18-hole round of golf was completed by North Korea’s<br />
Supreme Leader, Kim Jong-il, in an unheard of thirty-four<br />
strokes! And it was his first time ever playing the game!<br />
(Equally amazing is the fact that this, among other bits of<br />
extreme propaganda, are perpetuated in his country.)<br />
In this intriguing new book, Haviland illuminates the<br />
murkiest corners from every era of history—from the Trojan<br />
Horse (not very “Trojan” at all, as it was built by and filled<br />
with Greeks!) to Queen Victoria (who perhaps wasn’t such a<br />
prude, considering her nude modeling career). The result is a<br />
wholly fascinating, highly educational compendium of historic<br />
strangeness that will enlighten and entertain readers both<br />
young and old.<br />
DavID havIlaND is a journalist, writer, and historian<br />
who has long had a love of quirky trivia and anecdotes. Coauthor<br />
of Why Dogs Eat Poop & Other Useless or Gross Information About<br />

“If you thought the likes of The Wolfman, The Twilight<br />
Saga: Eclipse, and Underworld had no basis in fact, it’s<br />
time to think again!” —Nick Redfern, author of<br />
There’s Something in the Woods<br />
the United States has been invaded—if many dozens of<br />
eyewitnesses are to be believed—by upright, canine<br />
creatures that look like traditional werewolves and act<br />
as if they own our woods, fields, and highways. Sightings from<br />
coast-to-coast dating back to the 1930s compel us to ask exactly<br />
what these beasts are, and what they want.<br />
Researcher, author, and newspaper reporter Linda S. Godfrey<br />
has been tracking the manwolf since the early 1990s. In<br />
Real Wolfmen she presents the only large-scale cataloguing and<br />
investigation of reports of modern sightings of anomalous, upright<br />
canids. Godfrey explores the most compelling cases from<br />
the modern history of such sightings, along with the latest<br />
reports, and undertakes a thorough exploration of the nature<br />
and possible origins of the creature.<br />

the author of over a dozen books<br />

on many national TV shows such as<br />
The History Channel’s Monster Quest,<br />

been a guest on radio shows such as Coast to Coast AM, as well as<br />

IT’S OKAY NOT<br />
TO SHARE<br />
and Other Renegade Rules for Raising<br />
Competent and Compassionate Kids<br />
heaTher shumaKer<br />
Remember The Rules for dating and relationships?<br />
Well, here are “the rules” for parents. Hint: They aren’t<br />
what you think they are!<br />
70
On the one hand, you want your child to learn how to<br />
negotiate the world on his or her own terms—on the<br />
other hand, it’s pretty embarrassing when your kid<br />
doesn’t want to be nice and hand over his toys quite<br />
yet. . . .<br />
AUGUST<br />
Parenting can be such an overwhelming job that it’s easy<br />
to lose track of your parenting philosophy—let alone<br />
where you stand on some of the more controversial subjects<br />
at the playground. What if my kid likes to roughhouse—<br />
isn’t this OK as long as no one gets hurt? And what if my kid just<br />
doesn’t feel like sharing? In this inspiring and enlightening book,<br />
mother Heather Shumaker describes her quest to nail down<br />
“the rules” to raising smart, sensitive, and self-sufficient kids.<br />
Drawing on her experiences as the mother of two small children,<br />
as well as on her extensive (and, yes, at times obsessive!) reading<br />
into what the “experts”—child psychologists, pediatricians,<br />
etc.—have to say, in this book Shumaker gets down to the heart<br />
of the matter on some of the most controversial aspects of parenting<br />
young children. The renegade rules in this book include:<br />
u It’s OK if it’s not hurting people or property.<br />
u Kids need conflict.<br />
u All feelings are OK. All behavior isn’t.<br />
u Bombs and bad guys allowed.<br />
u Boys can wear tutus.<br />
u Go ahead—paint off the paper!<br />
u Sex Ed starts in preschool.<br />
u Inconsistent parenting works!<br />
Sometimes raising your kid the way you want to isn’t easy.<br />
The rules in this book will help parents give their children the<br />
freedom and space they need to grow into happy, healthy, and<br />
contented adults—despite what the other moms at the playground<br />
may think!<br />

SWEDENBORG<br />
An Introduction to His Life and Ideas<br />
garY laChman<br />
A clear and concise overview of the life<br />
and work of the immensely influential but<br />
little understood eighteenth-century<br />
mystic-scientist Emanuel Swedenborg.<br />
“Lachman identifies all the roles Swedenborg inhabited<br />
(spiritual thinker, psychic, scientist, inventor,<br />
statesman, traveler, and possibly even spy) and does<br />
an exceptionally good job of suggesting why this littleknown<br />
polymath deserves more substantial critical<br />
attention.” —The Independent on Sunday (UK)<br />
It is difficult to imagine modern Western alternative spirituality<br />
without the influence of Swedish scientist and mystic<br />
Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772). Every movement in alternative<br />
spirituality—from mental healing and Spiritualism<br />
to New Age mysticism and the twelve-step recovery movement—owes<br />
an immeasurable debt to the ideas he exploded<br />
upon the Western world.<br />
Yet Swedenborg’s work can be challenging for modern readers.<br />
His influence, everywhere at once, is difficult to get a<br />
handle on. Now, Gary Lachman provides an accessible, lively,<br />
and masterful introduction to the life and ideas of this spiritual<br />
giant. Lachman takes us to Swedenborg’s roots as a brilliant<br />
rationalist and scientist who, well into midlife, began to<br />
experience visions of other realms. From this point, Swedenborg<br />
produced an extraordinary body of writings based on his<br />
out-of-body experiences, in which he related encounters with<br />
angels, other-planetary beings, and “the world of spirits.”<br />
As Lachman explores, Swedenborg’s work opened up a radically<br />
liberal and refreshing idea of religion. He saw humanity,<br />
and all of nature, as phenomena emerging from the “spiritual<br />
world,” and man as a vessel for divine influences. This vision<br />
inspired Western seekers to see man as a product of spiritual<br />
phenomena, and thus a being intimately connected with the<br />
cosmos. From this perspective grew bold new ideas about<br />
channeling, spiritual healing, mystical experience, mediumship—a<br />
litany of concepts that prefigured the revolutions in<br />
alternative and therapeutic spirituality.<br />

Praise for TRANSCENDENCE<br />
“Dr. Norman Rosenthal’s book will propel TM into the mainstream<br />
where it belongs.”<br />
—russell simmons<br />
“The best-ever book on Transcendental Meditation.” —David lynch<br />
“Whether your troubles are deep or you simply know life could be<br />
better and healthier, read this book.” —Candy Crowley, Cnn anchor<br />
Norman E. Rosenthal, M.D., a longtime researcher at the<br />
National Institute of Mental Health and the celebrated<br />
psychiatrist and psychiatric researcher who pioneered<br />
the study and treatment of seasonal affective disorder (SAD),<br />
brings us this generation’s most important work on Transcendental<br />
Meditation—and one of today’s most significant books<br />
on achieving greater physical and mental health and wellness.<br />
Transcendence demystifies the practice and benefits of Transcendental<br />
Meditation for a general audience who may have<br />
heard about the method but do not necessarily know what it is,<br />
how it is practiced, or what they stand to gain from it, physically<br />
and emotionally. Dr. Rosenthal clearly and practically explains<br />
the basic ideas behind Transcendental Meditation: It is a nonreligious<br />
practice that involves sitting comfortably for twenty<br />
minutes twice a day, while using a silent mantra, or nonverbal<br />
sound, to attain a profound state of aware relaxation.<br />
Dr. Rosenthal draws upon experience from the lives of his<br />
patients and a wealth of clinical research amassed on TM over<br />
the past generation (340 peer-reviewed published articles) to<br />
provide the fullest and most accessible book ever on the broad<br />
range of benefits of this remarkably simple practice, from relief<br />
of anxiety, stress, and depression to new hope for those suffering<br />
from addiction, attention-deficit disorder, or post-traumatic<br />
stress disorder.<br />
Alongside exclusive celebrity interviews—where stars such<br />
as Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Martin Scorsese, Russell<br />
Brand, Laura Dern, Moby, and David Lynch openly discuss<br />
their meditation—Transcendence features stories from everyday<br />
people, from veterans to students coping with anxiety disorders,<br />
discussing how TM has helped them achieve more fulfilling lives.<br />

Contemporary research has shown that optimistic<br />
people experience longer and healthier lives, better<br />
relationships, and higher incomes. Generations before<br />
such findings, however, inspirational writer Christian D. Larson<br />
showed an amazing grasp of the life-changing power of gratitude<br />
and optimism. Today, Larson is known worldwide for his<br />
powerful meditation “The Optimist Creed” and for his other<br />
classics of spiritual living—but no single volume has collected<br />
his greatest writings. Here, at last, is a long-overdue anthology<br />
that makes his foundational writings available to the countless<br />
readers who already know his name and work.<br />
In his now famous maxim, Larson encouraged early twentieth-century<br />
readers to embrace an “attitude of gratitude.”<br />
Yet Larson’s vision went far beyond mushy or feel-good nostrums.<br />
Like no one else of his day, the groundbreaking writer<br />
understood the metaphysical and psychological dimensions of<br />
grateful living. Affirmative thought, Larson reasoned, sets in<br />
motion unseen forces, both spiritual and psychical, and aids in<br />
manifesting our desires.<br />
In our time, Larson’s message is as fresh and radical as<br />
ever. The Optimist Creed features complete editions of his most<br />
deeply affecting works, each redesigned and reset. It contains:<br />
“The Pathway of Roses,” “Your Forces and How to Use Them”<br />
(the 1912 work that features his “Optimist Creed”), “Mastery of<br />
Self,” “The Ideal Made Real,” and “Just Be Glad.”<br />
76<br />
ChrIstIaN D. larsoN (1874–1962) was born in Iowa to Norwegian immigrants.<br />
He was headed for a career in the Lutheran ministry but later embraced a more universal and<br />
independent spirituality. In 1901, at age twenty-seven, Larson launched one of the first journals<br />
devoted to positive thinking. He moved to California and grew into a popular New Thought and<br />
inspirational writer and speaker, producing more than forty books. Larson’s most enduring work<br />
is the meditation called “The Optimist Creed,” which he originally published in 1912 as “Promise<br />
Yourself.” In 1922, it was officially adopted as the manifesto of Optimist International and today<br />
is quoted around the world.

A memoir<br />
marTha gellhorn<br />
The life that inspired the HBO movie<br />
Hemingway & Gellhorn, premiering<br />
in spring <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
“Gellhorn is incapable of writing a dull sentence.”<br />
—The Times (London)<br />
“Gellhorn has a novelist’s eye, a flair for black comedy,<br />
and a short fuse. There is not a boring word in her<br />
humane and often funny book.”<br />
—The New York Times<br />
“Martha Gellhorn—a woman before her time—left<br />
behind a gem of a travelogue, sewn with the requisite<br />
nightmares and epiphanies, but imparted with a wink,<br />
as if to a friend.” —Deborah Copaken Kogan,<br />
author of Shutterbabe<br />
Martha Gellhorn was one of her generation’s greatest<br />
journalists, a prizewinning war correspondent,<br />
a world-class traveler, and the wife of Ernest<br />
Hemingway for five tempestuous years. Her memoir, Travels<br />
with Myself and Another (originally published in 1978), shines<br />
light on Gellhorn’s time covering the Sino-Japanese War<br />
and other international conflicts, her extensive travel in<br />
Asia, the USSR, Africa, and beyond, and her rocky marriage<br />
to Hemingway.<br />
