If you are a learner from teenage years upwards, this book will help you identify your preferred ways of learning. It will also help you see why you are comfortable with some learning activities, and less comfortable with others. If you are a teacher, trainer or educator of any kind, this book will help you appreciate the diversity of the learners you deal with, and how you can adapt your teaching / training approaches to accommodate different learning styles and help your learners learn more effectively. Using Myers Briggs principles, this illustrated, full colour book will take you through a process of identifying the appropriate colours of your 'Tracksuit garments' which represent different learning traits and preferences. This then leads to determining a detailed learning style analysis, including the behaviours and attitudes that may help or hinder your own (or your learners') learning.

People have been consulting the oracle of the I Ching (Yee King) for guidance on how to deal with the ups and downs of life for over 3,000 years. Amazingly it is just as powerful today as it has always been; perhaps even more so considering the extraordinary changes that affect us today at both a global and individual level. This is a very clear, concise and accessible version of the I Ching that will provide you with practical guidance for today's Western world while retaining the esoteric spirit of the East. This book provides a way of enabling anyone with a receptive mind to see their personal situation reflected in the words and images that the oracle provides. It enables those who look, to see their circumstances in a new light. It provides a truly moral way of going forward, neither too strongly, nor too weakly but in harmony and balance with the time. The oracle itself has no power. The power comes from the psyche of the reader who can intuitively understand the meaning within the words.

When keepnets are not allowed, do you ever ask yourself things like "Was that my 5th or 6th bream?" Or at the end of the day do you struggle to remember exactly how many fish of which species you've caught? If the answer is yes, the Pocket Keepnet can come to the rescue! The 'Pocket Keepnet' fishing catch record provides a simple way of recording what you have caught, as soon as you've caught it. The log is illustrated with pictures of the 20 most commonly caught fish in the UK, with space for you to record what you have caught in a number of different ways like a five-bar-gate, or writing in the actual or estimated weight of each fish. The illustrations also aid fish recognition for anyone new to the sport. The book allows you to log the catches of 25 fishing trips, each on a double page spread. The Pocket Keepnet makes a great addition to your tackle box - and a great gift for any pleasure fisherman.

If you regularly consult the I Ching, you will value a way of recording your consultations and keeping them for future reference. In this Journal you can record all the essential details about your I Ching consultation such as Date / Area (work - home etc) / Issue or questions / Hexagrams / Chapters / Changes etc. It also allows you to record your initial thoughts on your readings then an action plan for what you are going to do, and finally a section on the consequences of your actions, and whether another consultation is necessary. There are templates for up to 25 I Ching consultations. This I Ching Journal is recommended for use with its sister publication 'I Ching Today' although it can be used equally effectively with any book or other means of consulting the I Ching.

Do you like debating religious issues? If so, this book of poems will provide you with oodles of debating ammunition. The poems are short, sharp, accessible, sometimes funny, sometimes quirky, sometimes poignant. If you're already an atheist, then these poems will strengthen your non-belief and maybe even highlight issues and arguments that you haven't considered before. If you are a theist (a believer) the poems will challenge your views. The more fundamentalist your views, the more you will be challenged. The poems are not intended to convert the deeply indoctrinated, but if you are currently sitting on the fence, this book will pull you towards the atheist side.
