Françoise Millet-Bartoli
Mid-Life Crisis A Second Chance
In France, the notion of a mid-life crisis remains relatively little known. And yet, just like childhood and adolescence, mid-life is a specific age characterised by a distinctive psychology and, sometimes, psycho-pathology. This often-feared time of life, governed by major personal changes, can also be a period of true rebirth if the mid-lifer learns how to deal with the changes, by being informed and knowing how to react. This book focuses on what mid-lifers can do to live in greater harmony with themselves. Françoise Millet-Bartoli is a psychiatrist and psychotherapist and teaches at the medical faculty of Toulouse.
Dominique Lanzmann-Petithory
Nutrition for a Long Life
A long life is built gradually from early childhood. But regardless of ones age, it is never too late. Longevity is not only a question of genes: most of us are capable of living in good health for a long time. But how? The answer, according to Dominique Lanzmann-Petithory, is by eating healthily and following some basic health rules. This practical manual will allow each reader to find and maintain his or her maximum energy and, above all, to learn the arts of eating and living. Dominique Lanzmann-Petithory is a physician.
Jeanne Siaud-Facchin
The Over-Gifted Child Helping them to grow up, helping them to succeed
It could almost be said that gifted children are in danger. They are emotional sponges who often ignore the insouciance of childhood, and their hyper-receptivity puts them in a state of heightened vigilance. For these reasons, gifted children are more often familiar with fear and anxiety. And yet, if parents and teachers understand the gifted child, he or she will blossom and make use of the great wealth of his or her personality and abilities. The goal of this practical manual is to guide parents and teachers in the discovery of gifted or exceptional children. Jean Siaud-Facchin is a clinical psychologist.
