Sinopse

By the time he was three, Walker's parents were concerned enough about his delayed development to consult a paediatric neurologist. Doctors diagnosed autism and issued a grim prognosis: 'I hold out no hope for this child'. But they hadn't accounted for Walker's intelligence, affection, and sense of humour - or for the remarkable bonds that grew within his family. 
Walker's father, Robert Hughes, tells a touching and inspiring story of discovering that their 'perfect little boy had a problem'. With disarming honesty and humour, the book tells how a family copes and keeps hope alive despite the staggering difficulties autism presents.

    Book 1: Are you living up to your true potential? 
    Have you found your calling in life? 
    Are you attracting enough wealth? 
    If the answer to any of these questions is “no,” then I encourage you to pay attention to the advice given in this book. You will learn more about yourself, about how to save up more money and attract more of it, and how to manage stress. In these pressing times, many people lose their sense of self or become less confident in their ability to achieve much. But your personality traits may just be all that’s needed to live the life of your dreams. 
    Book 2: Did you know that Feng Shui can help you attract more wealth? 
    The invisible powers of organization and energies are hidden in the most profound realms of the universe, and they work! 
    But hold on, a skeptic might say, “How do I even know whether it is working or not?” 
    Well, that’s where this book comes in. In this guide, we will lay out the signs of the law of attraction, and the reasons why, for some people, it doesn’t work as well as it should. We will also tell you more about business practices and strategies that can directly help you achieve more success and generate more profit. After all, business is business, and acting on your desires is one of the most contributing factors. And doing it the right way can make or break your income.

    Would you like to know how to negotiate with terrorists to let a group of innocent captives free from a burning building? Would you like to know how to talk your girlfriend into having sex with you even when she feels fat and ugly? Would you like to convince people that they are ugly or fat while simultaneously making them feel that giving you money will make them prettier, thinner, and happier? 
    Would you like to know how to talk your brother into buying you a brand new state of the art entertainment system instead of taking his family on vacation? Would you like to know how to get your date to take off his clothes at the beach so that you can get revenge on him by calling the police and get him arrested for streaking in public? 
    Persuasion is all around you, and if you’re not the one doing the persuading, then you’re the one being persuaded, whether you’re cognizant of it or not. That’s one of the glories of living in the digital age; you don’t even have to step outside of your home to be convinced to swear loyalty to this or that product or to vote for this or that individual in the next election. Heck! Your social media knows how to give you personalized advertisements based on things you have searched, liked, or talked about with your friends in those messages that you assumed were private. 
    This book entitled Dark Methods of Persuasion by author Michael Pace is here to give you an inside scoop on dark persuasion so that you are the one in control.
