  Jacques Lacan: The Basics provides a clear and succinct introduction to the work of Jacques Lacan, one of the key thinkers of the twentieth century. 
   
   
   
  Lacan's ideas are applied in the study of the humanities, politics, and psychology, as well as contemporary media and the arts, but their complexity makes them impenetrable to many. This book is unique in explaining the key concepts and context, from Lacan's understanding of psychoanalysis to drive and desire, in an accessible way without diluting them beyond meaning. Examples from popular culture are used throughout to emphasize the ideas being discussed and a full glossary and list of resources encourages additional exploration. 
   
   
   
  This engaging and accessible text is essential for all those interested in Lacan and his work, as well as students of psychology, psychoanalysis, literature, politics, cultural studies, film studies, and more.

  The Tin Ringis a moving memoir of love, loss and hope. This new edition has been published in celebration of Zdenka's 100th birthday.
  Zdenka's peaceful life was changed forever when she was sent to Terezin concentration camp. Here, she was given a humble engraved tin ring by her first love Arno. She survived six concentration camps, endured horrors the like of which most of us can't begin to comprehend, yet never lost the will to live.
  When Arno gave her the ring he said, 'That's for our engagement. And, to keep you safe. If we are both alive when the war ends I will find you.'The ring was the symbol of his love – a tin ring – that gave her the hope to endure unimaginable suffering and survive in the belief that they would one day be re-united.
  Zdenka protected this little tin ring with her life and with astonishing determination. Never falling into destructive self-pity, her compassion for other people, her sense of humour and the ability to take remarkable risks, are just part of Zdenka's indomitable spirit.
  Zdenka survived six concentration camps including Auschwitz, Gross Rosen, Mauthausen and Belsen – the worst of all. In the last chaotic days of the war in Belsen she crawled to a Red Cross post. There she was saved by an unknown British soldier to whom the book is dedicated.

  ADHD Behind Closed Doors is a heartfelt, unfiltered look at what it really means to parent a child with ADHD. It’s not a guidebook or a list of strategies. It’s a raw, honest account of the emotional reality behind the closed doors of families navigating neurodivergence. 
  Told through journal entries, personal stories, and the voice of a mother who has lived every word, this book shines a light on the moments we don’t often talk about, the shame, the guilt, the exhaustion, the deep love, and the quiet resilience it takes to keep going. 
  Mirka Frommenwiler doesn’t offer easy answers. She offers solidarity. With fierce honesty and deep compassion, she names what often goes unnamed, giving voice to the emotional truth of parenting a child who doesn't fit the mould. 
  If you’ve ever felt alone, overwhelmed, or unsure whether anyone else really understands, this book is for you.
