Trainable Cat
av John Bradshaw, Sarah Ellis
'Amazing' GuardianFrom the on-screen experts for BBC2's Cat Watch, and based on their groundbreaking research - this is the ultimate guide to making your cat a happier, more sociable animal.The idea of a trained cat is a contradiction in terms, isn't it? Naturally solitary, wary, easily threatened by newcomers, they are attached to place rather than people, and much of their 'antisocial' behaviour arises in situations where that attachment is threatened. But, as cat experts Sarah Ellis and John Bradshaw argue, such stress-induced behaviour can be prevented, reduced, even eliminated, by training.A comprehensive and engaging step-by-step guide, The Trainable Cat will help you to help your cat negotiate the complexities of everyday life: to enjoy living with humans - including new babies and lively toddlers - and other pets; to answer to their name; settle into a new home; and to overcome the anxiety of a visit to the vet. You can train your cat to do what is in its own best interests - even when its instincts tell it otherwise. 'I doubt you'll find a more well-informed or scientific book on cats that better shows you how feline thinking works' The Times

Post-Romantic Stress Disorder
av John Bradshaw
John Bradshaw is arguably the most accomplished and well-known leader alive today in the addictions field. He taught us about functional and dysfunctional families, showed us how shame could become toxic and poisonous to our core selves, and helped us understand and heal the wounded, vulnerable 'inner child' conceived by, and thriving in, that environment. In Post-Romantic Stress Disorder (PRSD), John Bradshaw gives readers a clear explanation of the difference between falling in love, lust and true love. Based on his research, PRSD is a serious psychological disorder and the cause of 40 per cent of all divorces - divorces that could have been prevented. Every day people throw away perfectly good relationships because they just don't know how to navigate the tides, but if they could learn and understand the concepts Bradshaw presents in this book, the portrait of the family unit could have a whole new landscape. Join this great teacher as he tackles issues that threaten and endanger so many modern relationships. Be encouraged as he leads the way to a deeper and more fulfilling partnership. As he so eruditely observed some time ago, 'As the health of the marriage goes, so goes the health of the family'. Yet Bradshaw ladles out hope unlimited - if parents could restore a deep, authentic love for each other it could be passed on to their children and relationships and families would flourish.

Cat Sense
av John Bradshaw
From John Bradshaw, one of the world's leading experts on animal behaviour, and the author of the Sunday Times Bestseller, In Defence of Dogs, Cat Sense is a scientific portrait of the true, surprising nature of catsWorshipped as gods, feared as demonic servants, seen as both wild opportunists and beloved companions, cats often seem as unfathomable, enigmatic and magical to us today as they did in ancient times. They have lived with humans for at least ten thousand years (far earlier than the reign of the Pharaohs), and today are the most popular pet in the world. That they now outnumber the dog, man's 'best friend', by three to one, is small wonder: at once affectionate and self-reliant, they seem to be perfectly suited to our busy 21st Century lifestyles. Yet cats still think like the wild scavengers and hunters from which they are descended - and to which they can quickly revert. Today, they face unprecedented challenges in their life with humans: from conservationists who cast them as a threat to wildlife; from other cats who they compete for territory with; and from good-intentioned owners and vets with misconceptions of what they require. Cats need not so much our sympathy, but our understanding, if they are to continue to enjoy our companionship. The recent surge in feline science - with John Bradshaw at the forefront - means we are now better equipped to understand them than ever before. Cat Sense offers us for the first time a true picture of one of humanity's closest and most enigmatic companions. Praise for In Defence of Dogs:'The most fantastic book, a revelation' Observer'Essential reading' Daily Telegraph'Nothing less than a manifesto for a new understanding' Guardian'A case grounded in kindness and science ... Authoritative, wise and rather moving' Independent'A wonderful, reassuring, and encouraging book' Literary Review'A wonderfully informative, passionate book' EconomistJohn Bradshaw is a biologist who founded and directs the world-renowned Anthrozoology Institute, based at the University of Bristol. He has been studying the behaviour of domestic cats and their owners for over 25 years, and is the author of many scientific articles, research papers and reviews. He is also the author of the Sunday Times bestseller, In Defence of Dogs.

In Defence of Dogs
av John Bradshaw
A dog is not for Christmas. This is.John Bradshaw, one of the world's leading dog experts, brings us a compelling insight into what dogs would ask us for, if only they knew how.The dog has been mankind's faithful companion for tens of thousands of years, yet today finds itself in crisis throughout the western world. Until just over a hundred years ago, most dogs worked for their living, and each of the many breeds had become well suited, over countless generations, to the task for which they were bred. Now, in their purely domestic roles we fail to understand their needs. And it is time that someone stood up for dogdom: not the caricature of the wolf in a dog suit, ready to dominate its unsuspecting owner at the first sign of weakness, not the trophy animal that collects rosettes and kudos for its breeder, but the real dog, the pet that just wants to be one of the family and enjoy life. Biologists now know far more about what really makes dogs tick than they did twenty years ago, but this new understanding has been slow to percolate through to owners, and has not yet made enough of a difference to the lives of the dogs themselves. This book is here to set the record straight.

Creating Love
av John Bradshaw
“Why are so many of us at times completely baffled by a relationship? How can we think we know someone so well and admit in the end that we hardly knew that person at all? Why do many people who work diligently and strenuously to gain wholeness and balance still feel so frustrated about having a fulfilling relationship?Why have so many people given up on love?”—from the PrologueJohn Bradshaw’s bestselling books and compelling PBS series have touched and changed millions of lives. Now, in Creating Love, he offers us a new way to understand our most crucial relationships—with our romantic partners and spouses, with our parents and children, with friends and co-workers, with ourselves, and with God.Bradshaw’s compassionate approach shows that many of us have been literally “entranced” by past experiences of counterfeit love, so we unknowingly re-create patterns that can never fulfill us. Here he provides both the insights and the precise tools we need to keep those destructive patterns from repeating in the present. And then he shows how we can open ourselves to the soul-building work of real love—and create healthy, loving relationships where we can be fully ourselves in every part of our lives.

Homecoming
av John Bradshaw
Are you outwardly successful but inwardly do you feel like a big kid? Do you aspire to be a loving parent but all too often “lose it” in hurtful ways? Do you crave intimacy but sometimes wonder if it’s worth the struggle? Or are you plagued by constant vague feelings of anxiety or depression? If any of this sounds familiar, you may be experiencing the hidden but damaging effects of a painful childhood—carrying within you a “wounded inner child” that is crying out for attention and healing. In this powerful book, John Bradshaw shows how we can learn to nurture that inner child, in essence offering ourselves the good parenting we needed and longed for. Through a step-by-step process of exploring the unfinished business of each developmental stage, we can break away from destructive family rules and roles and free ourselves to live responsibly in the present. Then, says Bradshaw, the healed inner child becomes a source of vitality, enabling us to find new joy and energy in living. Homecoming includes a wealth of unique case histories and interactive techniques, including questionnaires, letter-writing to the inner child, guided meditations, and affirmations. Pioneering when introduced, these classic therapies are now being validated by new discoveries in attachment research and neuroscience. No one has ever brought them to a popular audience more effectively and inspiringly than John Bradshaw.

Hundeverstand
av John Bradshaw
Hunde sind seit Zehntausenden von Jahren unsere engsten Begleiter. Und obwohl wir noch nie so viel Geld fur sie ausgegeben haben wie heute, fehlt es doch haufig am grundlegenden Verstandnis fur ihre Bedurfnisse. Hchste Zeit, dass jemand einmal ganz eindeutig die Partei der Hunde ergreift. Nicht die der Karikatur vom Wolf im Hundepelz, der seinen Besitzer bei erstbester Gelegenheit dominieren mchte, und auch nicht die des Modeaccessoires oder Showtieres, das Schleifen und Pokale fr seinen Besitzer sammelt, sondern die des wahren Hundes, der ganz einfach Teil der Familie sein mchte. Biologen wissen heute weit mehr darber, wie Hunde wirklich "ticken", als noch vor zwanzig Jahren, und John Bradshaw war an dieser Forschung mageblich beteiligt. Mit diesem Buch mchte er die neuen und zum Teil erstaunlichen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse dem Hundehalter nahebringen und damit fr ein besseres Verstndnis unseres besten Freundes werben.

La vie secrÃ¤te des chats
av Bradshaw John Bradshaw
VÃ©nÃ©rÃ©s en tant que dieux, craints en tant que serviteurs du Diable, considÃ©rÃ©s Ã¿ la fois comme des opportunistes sans vergogne et des compagnons bien-aimÃ©s, les chats nous paraissent souvent aujourd?hui aussi incomprÃ©hensibles, mystÃ©rieux et gÃ©niaux que dans les temps anciens. Ils vivent avec les humains depuis au moins dix mille ans (bien avant le rÃ¤gne des pharaons) et ils reprÃ©sentent de nos jours l?animal domestique le plus rÃ©pandu. Il n?y a rien d?Ã©tonnant Ã¿ ce qu?ils soient trois plus nombreux que le chien, le Â«meilleur amiÂ» de l?homme: Ã¿ la fois affectueux et indÃ©pendants, ils semblent parfaitement adaptÃ©s Ã¿ notre style de vie effrÃ©nÃ© du XXIe siÃ¤cle. Pourtant, les chats pensent encore comme les charognards et les chasseurs sauvages dont ils sont les descendants ? et dont ils peuvent rapidement retrouver la nature. De nos jours, ils se trouvent confrontÃ©s Ã¿ des dÃ©fis sans prÃ©cÃ©dent dans leurs rapports avec les humains: de la part des dÃ©fenseurs de l?environnement qui les voient comme une menace pour la faune; de la part des autres chats Ã¿ qui ils font concurrence sur un mÃªme territoire; et de la part de propriÃ©taires bien intentionnÃ©s et de vÃ©tÃ©rinaires qui se font de fausses idÃ©es sur ce qui leur est nÃ©cessaire. S?ils doivent continuer Ã¿ vivre agrÃ©ablement avec nous, ils n?ont pas tant besoin de notre affection que de notre comprÃ©hension. GrÃ¢ce aux rÃ©cents progrÃ¤s dans le domaine de l?Ã©tude des fÃ©lins ? dont John Bradshaw est un des pionniers ? nous sommes mieux que jamais auparavant en mesure de les comprendre. Ce livre nous prÃ©sente pour la premiÃ¤re fois un vÃ©ritable portrait de l?un des compagnonsles plus proches et les plus mystÃ©rieux de l?humanitÃ©.

Degenerative Disorders of the Brain
av Darren Hocking, John Bradshaw, Joanne Fielding
Covering a wide range of diverse age-related disorders, Degenerative Disorders of the Brain addresses disabilities that occur or have their roots in the later stages of life. The book brings together an internationally recognised group of contributors to discuss frontostriatal, fronto-cerebellar and other major brain systems and structures which control and direct normal behaviour, and which can fail during the aging process, as well as addressing behavioural, clinical, pathophysiological and technical aspects. Discussing the latest clinical and behavioural findings of disorders which are largely, though not necessarily entirely, age related, including Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, Parkinson's disease and related disorders, and Huntington's disease, the book covers information vital to the understanding, diagnosis, and management of degenerative disorders of the brain. It also considers the role of epigenetics, neural plasticity, and environmental enrichment in neurodegenerative disorders alongside the role of ground-breaking intervention methods, including transcranial magnetic stimulation and deep brain stimulation. Degenerative Disorders of the Brain will be of great interest to, and use for, clinicians, researchers, students, lecturers, and affected individuals and their relatives.

Bradshaw's Guide Bradshaw at the Seaside
av John Christopher, Campbell McCutcheon
Bradshaw's Guide of 1863 was the staple book on what's what and where's where for the mid-Victorians and it gives the modern reader a unique insight into the world of the nineteenth-century railway travellers. The guide introduced the notion of seaside holidays to the general public and thanks to the railways it became possible for a town or city dweller to catch a train for a day-trip to the coast and still be home in time for supper. Oh! I do like to be beside the seaside, I do like to be beside the sea!I do like to stroll upon the Prom, Prom, Prom!Where the brass bands play:Tiddely-om-pom-pom! Using Bradshaw s Guide illustrated with contemporary images and seaside postcards, John Christopher and Campbell McCutcheon take us on a tour of Britain s Victorian resorts.

Plant Breeding: Past, Present and Future
av John E Bradshaw
This book aims to help plant breeders by reviewing past achievements, currently successful practices, and emerging methods and techniques. Theoretical considerations are also presented to strike the right balance between being as simple as possible but as complex as necessary.The United Nations predicts that the global human population will continue rising to 9.0 billion by 2050. World food production will need to increase between 70-100 per cent in just 40 years. First generation bio-fuels are also using crops and cropland to produce energy rather than food. In addition, land area used for agriculture may remain static or even decrease as a result of degradation and climate change, despite more land being theoretically available, unless crops can be bred which tolerate associated abiotic stresses. Lastly, it is unlikely that steps can be taken to mitigate all of the climate change predicted to occur by 2050, and beyond, and hence adaptation of farming systems and crop production will be required to reduce predicted negative effects on yields that will occur without crop adaptation. Substantial progress will therefore be required in bridging the yield gap between what is currently achieved per unit of land and what should be possible in future, with the best farming methods and best storage and transportation of food, given the availability of suitably adapted cultivars, including adaptation to climate change. My book is divided into four parts: Part I is an historical introduction; Part II deals with the origin of genetic variation by mutation and recombination of DNA; Part III explains how the mating system of a crop species determines the genetic structure of its landraces; Part IV considers the three complementary options for future progress: use of sexual reproduction in further conventional breeding, base broadening and introgression; mutation breeding; and genetically modified crops.

Three Men and a Bradshaw
av John George Freeman
Wryly humorous and quintessentially British, Three Men and a Bradshaw collects the previously unpublished holiday journals of John Freeman, who travelled Britain with his brothers during the 1870s. Each year the trio would settle upon a destination, buy their tickets and set off armed, of course, with their trusty Bradshaw's Descriptive Railway Hand-book.John's delightful records of their trips contain much that will resonate with the modern traveller, from the eccentricities of fellow passengers and locals to the tender mercies of the British climate. At the same time they offer insights into the experiences particular to a Victorian tourist, and are full of valuable local history on everywhere from Devon and Jersey to Scotland and Wales.Beautifully illustrated throughout with John s original drawings, this is a fascinating and uniquely personal historical artefact, as well as an enchanting and frequently hilarious evocation of a distant but still wholly recognisable Britain.
