Human Remains is a deeply disturbing and powerful psychological thriller that will have you checking the locks on your doors and windows.
When Annabel, a police analyst, discovers her neighbour’ s decomposing body in the house next door, she’ s appalled to think that no one, including herself, noticed that anything was wrong.
Back at work, she feels compelled to investigate, despite her colleagues' lack of interest, and finds data showing that such cases are common – too common – in her home town. As she’ s drawn deeper into the mystery and becomes convinced she’ s on the trail of a killer, she also must face her own demons and her own mortality. Would anyone notice if she just disappeared?

Jane Hawking
Translation: Efi Fryda
Professor Stephen Hawking is one of the most famous and remarkable scientists of our age and author of the scientific bestseller "A Brief History of Time", which sold over 25 million copies across the world and will be adapted as a children's book in the Autumn of next year. In this compelling memoir his first wife, Jane Hawking, relates the inside story of their extraordinary marriage. As Stephen's academic renown soared, his body was collapsing under the assaults of motor neurone disease, and Jane's candid account of trying to balance his 24-hour care with the needs of their growing family will be inspirational to anyone dealing with family illness. The inner-strength of the author, and the self-evident character and achievements of her husband, make for an incredible tale that is always presented with unflinching honesty; the author's candour is no less evident when the marriage finally ends in a high-profile meltdown, with Stephen leaving Jane for one of his nurses, while Jane goes on to marry an old family friend. In this exceptionally open, moving and often funny memoir, Jane Hawking confronts not only the acutely complicated and painful dilemmas of her first marriage, but also the faultlines exposed in a relationship by the pervasive effects of fame and wealth. The result is a book about optimism, love and change that will resonate with readers everywhere.

Dyslexia yet seen, too many times, as a serious social and cognitive disability. Thus was born the idea and the need of a manual created to explain how to recognize the signs, with which tools to intervene, in clinical and school environment, and what is the correct interpretation to give to an incident often overestimated or underestimated.
This book intends to defy labels and platitudes, offering a structured and clear analysis of the problem and explaining the operation of reading the subordinate processes: language, visual perception and attention (and their interaction). This is because there is no dyslexic person that is the same as another. The keyword of the method proposed is "training" a complete and specific "fitness" for cognition.
The part that is dedicated to playful-recreational exercises enables us to workout the child the fun and moving of the interest in reading with images, fairy tales or manual activities, which in turn are the steps for a preparatory course.
