    • Until about 100 million years ago, New Zealand lay on the Pacific-facing edge of the ancient supercontinent of Gondwana; the formation of our sedimentary rocks provides a fascinating view of the tectonic activity and changes since that time. This volume is the culmination of a comprehensive survey of New Zealand's Cretaceous-Cenozoic strata, begun in 1978, and presents an up-to-date synthesis and interpretation of regional sedimentary information from a variety of sources; the study has been expanded to include large areas of the continental shelf and beyond. Extensive references and indexing complete this essential work, a key resource for students, professional geologists and enthusiastic amateurs. Topics covered include: - sedimentary basins during the Cretaceous continental margin break-up; - the active tectonics of a 'passive margin'; - Late Cenozoic sedimentary basins in a new, evolving plate boundary; - eustatic sea-level change in an active tectonic setting; - basin scale and facies change on the new and thin continent Zealandia.

    • John Bradshaw je celosvětově proslulý autorem několika bestsellerů zabývajících se zejména poruchami rodinného systému a jejich přenosem na další generace a technikami napomáhajícími uzdravení tzv. „vnitřního dítěte“. Kniha Návrat domů se zabývá tímto vnitřním dítětem, které se zejména u jedinců z dysfunkčních rodin přestane rozvíjet a ustrne v některé z raných fází, v nichž utrpělo trauma. Naše traumatizované vnitřní dítě pak způsobuje, že se nerozhodujeme na základě našich dospělých skutečností, ale jako malé, zraněné a bázlivé dítě. Bradshaw se podrobně věnuje rozboru důvodů, z nich k traumatizaci došlo, nabízí nepřeberné množství technik, jak vnitřní dítě vyléčit a ochránit a poskytuje i cenné rady, jak si nově objevené postoje udržet. Kniha obsahuje velké množství podpůrných cvičení, technik a testů a je založena na osobní zkušenosti autora.

      How to Make Life Happier for You and Your Cat

      'Amazing' Guardian From the on-screen experts for BBC2's Cat Watch, and based on their groundbreaking research - this is the ultimate guide to making your cat a happier, more sociable animal. The idea of a trained cat is a contradiction in terms, isn't it? Naturally solitary, wary, easily threatened by newcomers, they are attached to place rather than people, and much of their 'antisocial' behaviour arises in situations where that attachment is threatened. But, as cat experts Sarah Ellis and John Bradshaw argue, such stress-induced behaviour can be prevented, reduced, even eliminated, by training. A comprehensive and engaging step-by-step guide, The Trainable Cat will help you to help your cat negotiate the complexities of everyday life: to enjoy living with humans - including new babies and lively toddlers - and other pets; to answer to their name; settle into a new home; and to overcome the anxiety of a visit to the vet. You can train your cat to do what is in its own best interests - even when its instincts tell it otherwise. 'I doubt you'll find a more well-informed or scientific book on cats that better shows you how feline thinking works' The Times

    • John Bradshaw is arguably the most accomplished and well-known leader alive today in the addictions field. He taught us about functional and dysfunctional families, showed us how shame could become toxic and poisonous to our core selves, and helped us understand and heal the wounded, vulnerable 'inner child' conceived by, and thriving in, that environment. In Post-Romantic Stress Disorder (PRSD), John Bradshaw gives readers a clear explanation of the difference between falling in love, lust and true love. Based on his research, PRSD is a serious psychological disorder and the cause of 40 per cent of all divorces - divorces that could have been prevented. Every day people throw away perfectly good relationships because they just don't know how to navigate the tides, but if they could learn and understand the concepts Bradshaw presents in this book, the portrait of the family unit could have a whole new landscape. Join this great teacher as he tackles issues that threaten and endanger so many modern relationships. Be encouraged as he leads the way to a deeper and more fulfilling partnership. As he so eruditely observed some time ago, 'As the health of the marriage goes, so goes the health of the family'. Yet Bradshaw ladles out hope unlimited - if parents could restore a deep, authentic love for each other it could be passed on to their children and relationships and families would flourish.

    • John Bradshaw shrnul ve své knize nejmodernější poznatky o původu psů, o tom, jak vnímají svět kolem sebe, jak o něm přemýšlejí a co cítí. Vyvrací řadu domněnek souvisejících s dominancí v psí smečce a předkládá čtenářům přesvědčivé a vědecky podložené úvahy a teorie s cílem hájit právo psů na lepší život. Psi jsou věrnými společníky lidí již desítky tisíc let. V mnoha případech se stali skutečnými členy našich rodin a mnoho z nás si nedovede život bez psa představit. Přesto se psi v současnosti nacházejí na pokraji obrovské krize. Před sto lety byla naprostá většina psů užívána k práci, a proto byli šlechtěni k tomu, aby byli zdraví a odolní a aby byli lidem dobrými společníky. Během posledních desetiletí však došlo k tomu, že mnohé z těchto dříve žádoucích vlastností ztratily na významu a psi jsou šlechtěni hlavně proto, aby splňovali naše požadavky ohledně vzhledu, spíš než aby byli zdraví a společenští. Vyjma toho až příliš často zacházíme se psy jako s vlky nebo jako s chlupatými lidmi, třebaže nejsou ani jedno z toho. Zkrátka, je toho spousta, co bychom měli na svém přístupu k psům změnit, a to co nejdřív.

      Desde hace 10.000 años este felino ha acompañado el periplo del ser humano por el mundo sin dejar de alimentar mitos. Y sin embargo, las últimas investigaciones sobre su ADN han demostrado que, a diferencia del perro, todavía no ha sido domesticado del todo. Quizás por eso incluso los mayores amantes de estas mascotas son incapaces de entender del todo su lenguaje corporal o su comportamiento ni saben cómo convivir con sus instintos más primarios. Con un estilo directo y ameno, el zoólogo John Bradshaw repasa magistralmente los últimos descubrimientos científicos sobre los gatos y su increíble historia a través de los siglos. Una visión fascinante de la mente felina y su evolución física hasta nuestros días.

    • Hunde sollte man nicht zu Weihnachten verschenken. Dieses Buch schon. Hunde sind seit Zehntausenden von Jahren unsere engsten Begleiter. Und obwohl wir noch nie so viel Geld für sie ausgegeben haben wie heute, fehlt es doch häufig am grundlegenden Verständnis für ihre Bedürfnisse. Höchste Zeit, dass jemand einmal ganz eindeutig die Partei der Hunde ergreift. Nicht die der Karikatur vom Wolf im Hundepelz, der seinen Besitzer bei erstbester Gelegenheit dominieren möchte, und auch nicht die des Modeaccessoires oder Showtieres, das Schleifen und Pokale für seinen Besitzer sammelt, sondern die des wahren Hundes, der ganz einfach Teil der Familie sein möchte. Biologen wissen heute weit mehr darüber, wie Hunde wirklich „ticken“, als noch vor zwanzig Jahren, und John Bradshaw war an dieser Forschung maßgeblich beteiligt. Mit diesem Buch möchte er die neuen und zum Teil erstaunlichen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse dem Hundehalter nahebringen und damit für ein besseres Verständnis unseres besten Freundes werben.

    • What would dogs ask for, if they knew how? In the Sunday Times bestseller In Defence of Dogs John Bradshaw, an anthropologist at Bristol University who has been at the centre of the latest research into what makes dogs tick, gives us the answers.Overturning the most common myths about dogs' emotions and behaviour, this book shows how we should really treat our pets, and stands up for dogdom: not the wolf in canine clothes, not the small furry child, not the trophy-winner, but the real dog, who wants to be part of the family and enjoy life - mankind's closest friend. This is the real science that every dog lover needs to know.

      The author of the #1 bestsellers Homecoming and Creating Love has written a new book that takes readers into the heart of the family's mysterious power to impact our lives. Using a tool called the genogram to chart key relationships, Bradshaw examines how family secrets are created, how they influence family members, and the risks involved in exploring them.

      “Why are so many of us at times completely baffled by a relationship? How can we think we know someone so well and admit in the end that we hardly knew that person at all? Why do many people who work diligently and strenuously to gain wholeness and balance still feel so frustrated about having a fulfilling relationship? Why have so many people given up on love?”—from the Prologue John Bradshaw’s bestselling books and compelling PBS series have touched and changed millions of lives. Now, in Creating Love, he offers us a new way to understand our most crucial relationships—with our romantic partners and spouses, with our parents and children, with friends and co-workers, with ourselves, and with God. Bradshaw’s compassionate approach shows that many of us have been literally “entranced” by past experiences of counterfeit love, so we unknowingly re-create patterns that can never fulfill us. Here he provides both the insights and the precise tools we need to keep those destructive patterns from repeating in the present. And then he shows how we can open ourselves to the soul-building work of real love—and create healthy, loving relationships where we can be fully ourselves in every part of our lives.

      At last, the missing piece of the dysfunctional puzzle. It is not enough to understand or even relive our childhood traumas. Dr. Wolinsky shows us how we continue to recreate those traumas in our adult lives and how to stop creating them. Every uncomfortable emotional state, and many psychosomatic symptoms, are also states of trance. Trance is the "glue" that holds the problem in the present moment. Learning to identify the kind of trance state beneath a problem or symptom gives us the tool that finally dissolves the glue. This book offers a gold-mine of resources for those who suffer from dysfunctional patterns of behavior or for anyone who feels stuck in an undesirable emotional or addictive state. Learning to step out of the trance states that create our problems and symptoms is to learn to step into the present moment at last free of the baggage from our past.

      Are you outwardly successful but inwardly do you feel like a big kid? Do you aspire to be a loving parent but all too often “lose it” in hurtful ways? Do you crave intimacy but sometimes wonder if it’s worth the struggle? Or are you plagued by constant vague feelings of anxiety or depression? If any of this sounds familiar, you may be experiencing the hidden but damaging effects of a painful childhood—carrying within you a “wounded inner child” that is crying out for attention and healing. In this powerful book, John Bradshaw shows how we can learn to nurture that inner child, in essence offering ourselves the good parenting we needed and longed for. Through a step-by-step process of exploring the unfinished business of each developmental stage, we can break away from destructive family rules and roles and free ourselves to live responsibly in the present. Then, says Bradshaw, the healed inner child becomes a source of vitality, enabling us to find new joy and energy in living. Homecoming includes a wealth of unique case histories and interactive techniques, including questionnaires, letter-writing to the inner child, guided meditations, and affirmations. Pioneering when introduced, these classic therapies are now being validated by new discoveries in attachment research and neuroscience. No one has ever brought them to a popular audience more effectively and inspiringly than John Bradshaw.
