Par Tom Kimble. 2008
Most single girls will tell you that meeting and dating men is a minefield. Yet so many relationship books tell…
girls the things they don't want to hear (why all men are scoundrels) as opposed to what they really want to know - how to navigate that minefield to meet, date and ultimately bag, the man of their dreams.How to Pull fills that gap in the relationship book market. It's packed with all the essentials from how to hook him with that first look, to dating scenarios, moving in for the kill, playing the texting or email game and what to wear on a first date. What's more, it's written by a man and by allowing girls to understand how an insider thinks, it answers all the questions they agonise over: how long should you wait to return his text, does it pay to seem busy or desired by other men and what does he want his friends to think when they meet you. How to Pull is a fun, indispensable guide to finding (and keeping) a man that all single girls will be desperate to get their hands on.How To Move It: Reset Your Body (Merky How To #5)

Par Ian Robertson. 2021
* Confidence makes your brain work better and boosts your performance* Confidence acts like a mini-antidepressant, lifting your mood* Confidence…
is contagious* Confidence is anxiety's greatest antidote* Confidence is a set of habits that feel fake at first but become real with practice* Confidence makes boys bullsh*t more than girls* Overconfidence can have disastrous consequences_________'Brilliant ... it will change how you think about confidence.'

Par Edward De Bono. 2009
People spend a fortune on their bodies, their faces, their hair, their clothes. Cosmetics, plastic surgery, diets, gym membership -…
everyone's trying to be more attractive. But there's an easier way to become a beautiful person. It doesn't have to be physical. No matter how you look, if you have a mind that's fascinating, creative, exciting - if you're a good thinker - you can be beautiful.And being attractive doesn't necessarily come from being intelligent or highly-educated. It isn't about having a great personality. It's about using your imagination and expanding your creativity. And it's when talking with people that we make the greatest impact. A person may be physically beautiful, but when speaking to others a dull or ugly or uncreative mind will definitely turn them off.In clear, practical language, de Bono shows how by applying lateral and parallel thinking skills to your conversation you can improve your mind. By learning how to listen, make a point, and manoeuvre a discussion, you can become creative and more appealing - more beautiful.How to Have a Healthy Divorce: A Relate Guide
