While his early childhood was unimpressive, Einstein later earned the respect of the entire world and won the coveted Nobel Prize. His name is the most revered in physics. Even though he was a well-respected genius, Einstein mingled freely among ordinary folk, just as easily as he did scholars and politicians. And while Einstein had a great sense of humor, he was also a bit reckless in the way he led his personal life.To truly appreciate this brilliant scientist, who, at the age of 26, wrote the scholarly articles that fundamentally altered the foundation of physics, it is first important to look at his background and the environment in which he grew up in. Interestingly, while Einstein’s performance in math and physics was outstanding, he was not the only one in his family with a brilliant mind. His father also had an inclination towards mathematics, and his sister earned a doctorate in literature.

Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger's syndrome, Asperger disorder (AD) or simply Asperger's, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development.
Many people are afflicted with and suffer from Asperger’s and there is little to no understanding by the general public in regards to this syndrome. There is a lack of awareness, so when people encounter someone who has Asperger’s they view them strangely because aspies (as they commonly refer to themselves as) act and communicate differently from the rest of society so they are easily misunderstood.
In his book entitled “Asperger Syndrome” author and Asperger expert Frank Ryan offers a comprehensive guide for understanding, living with and treating Asperger syndrome.
Here are some of the topics covered:
• Detail overview and history of the Asperger Syndrome
• Effects of the syndrome on social interactions
• Effects of the syndrome on behavior and interests
• Effects of the syndrome on speech and language
• Effects of the syndrome on motor and sensory perception
• Therapies and medication
• Alternative therapies and treatments
• Available aids
• Children who suffer from Asperger
• Adults who suffer from Asperger
• How to deal with and manage a loved one who has Asperger

Augustus, born Gaius Octavious Thurinus in 63 BCE, was the first emperor of Rome. From the moment his great uncle and adoptive father, Julius Caesar, died when he was eighteen, his life was one action-packed conflict after another. From the unexpected inheritance of a hefty fortune and a heap of responsibilities, to fighting off a foe who should be a friend, to seeking revenge on Caesar’s assassins, he had his work cut out for him. Throw in an affair with a beautiful woman who happened to be pregnant and married to an aristocrat, an unruly daughter, and roomful of Senators who just didn’t know how to get things done, and you’ve got one heck of a life.
Augustus succeeded at many things during his nearly forty-year run as the leader of the Roman world. He reinvented the skyline of Rome, had the sewer system cleaned out and made to function, conquered Egypt and routed their plentiful grain to a starving Roman Empire, and promoted traditional Roman family values—not to be confused with traditional modern American or Western European family values—by giving attractive benefits to those who got married and had multiple children.
Along with revitalizing the city, Augustus sought to promote great writers like Virgil and Horace and encourage a renewal of religious piety. Changing laws was easy enough, but changing hearts proved to be a rather difficult matter. In his book entitled Augustus: The Life And Times Of Rome's Greatest Emperor author Simon T. Bailey brilliantly captures the true essence of Augustus as well as the time period in which he ruled in ancient Rome.
Do you struggle to get your point across to people? Do you ever feel like you are somehow weak and ineffectual in the way you communicate? Perhaps others just don't take you seriously. There is no easy fix for all of your problems. However, whatever those problems are, if social interaction is involved then a firm grip on the tenets of non-verbal communication can make it better. Your Mom wasn't just blowing hot air when she told you to “Stand up straight”, because “you slouch too much.” Mom knows: there is wisdom in those words, for the way we carried ourselves says a great deal about our character, our self-respect, and who we are.
No one knows more about body language than CIA agents, and it just so happens that we've got access to one who is willing to spill all the secrets about how to read non-verbal cues and body language. While he will remain nameless of course, you will get an unfettered look at the mind of someone who not only listens to what people say, but watches intensely what they do to detect for signs of graft, deceit, and danger.
In this book entitled Banned Body Language Secrets by author Daniel Smith we will look at how relationships, work, and personal safety can all be vastly improved by diving into the body language “rabbit hole”. You won't imagine how deep it really goes, and utilizing these age old tricks will have you at the center of attention, or flying low under the radar depending on how you choose to use them. So “keep your chin up” and your backbone straight as we delve into the often unnoticed world of how humans really communicate.

With Be A Boss, you will be introduced to the concrete and fundamental principles of how influence works and how you can become the kind of leader that you've always wanted to be!
Mental illness spares no one: children, adolescents, adults, and even the elderly. Chances are, you may have a friend, parent, sibling, relative, coworker, or spouse who has it. When a loved one is affected, it changes the dynamic of the relationships we have.
Oftentimes, psychiatric disorders are powerful enough to wreak havoc on the entire household simply because people don’t know enough about it, and how to deal with it. When these issues aren’t addressed properly, it can lead to a painful cycle of blame and hurt.
The most common mental illness is borderline personality disorder (BPD), which affects 2% of the American population each year. It is characterized by the inability to maintain stable personal relationships and extremely impulsive behavior; which is why it is commonly referred to as emotionally unstable personality disorder or emotional intensity disorder, among others. Symptoms of borderline personality disorder usually manifest themselves during adolescence or early childhood, but it can also occur later in life for others. BPD is associated with self-harm and suicide, but when diagnosed and treated early on the prognosis is quite good.
In his book entitled Borderline Personality Disorder: Everything You Need To Know About Borderline Personality Disorder author Richard Smith details all the aspects surrounding this mysterious yet common illness.
Here are some of things you will learn about:
• Symptoms of borderline personality disorder
• Conventional and alternative treatment options
• Living with someone who has BPD
• How to communicate with someone who has BPD
• The impact of BPD in families
• How to convince your child to get treatment
• Choosing the right therapist

Born an obscure German princess who suffered under the control of a domineering, narcissistic mother, the fourteen-year-old Princess Sophie von Anhalt-Zerbst seemed to be destined for a minor marriage and a forgettable career. Destiny had other plans for her: summoned to Russia, then considered by most Europeans to be a vast, primitive wasteland, devoid of culture or sophistication, she became the Grand Duchess Ekaterina, wife of the future emperor Peter III.
What followed her short, unhappy marriage was a legendary rise to supreme power. At the age of 33, the Grand Duchess Catherine became the Empress Catherine II, ruler in her own right of the largest empire on earth.
In this book, you will learn how, during Catherine’s lonely years as a neglected wife in the court of the Empress Elisabeth, she bided her time and amassed the necessary political and military support to overthrow the heir to the Romanov dynasty and seize his throne. You will also learn why, over the course of her 34-year reign, which saw rebellions, foreign wars, popular uprisings, and a string of jealous lovers vying for her favor, she came to be remembered by history under the name conferred upon her by her own people: Catherine the Great.
