How do you quantify the mental, physical, social, and cognitive health of people and organizations? Heart rate variability or HRV is the answer. HRV is a biometric that measures the differences in successive heartbeats. While simple, HRV provides an incredible amount of information on the health of our autonomic nervous system and brain. Heart Rate Variability explores how professionals and organizations can implement HRV to track the psychological, social, and physical health of those they serve, their staff, and the organization.

Il s'agit de Ned St Cyr, une vieille connaissance.

This small but powerful narration of a new mother’s journey gives voice to a topic that is very taboo: loving the kids but not loving the job of parenting. This issue, and this audiobook, is not just about postpartum depression.

Queen Elisabeth ist wirklich not amused über den Ausgang des Brexit-Referendums. Das Letzte, was sie jetzt gebrauchen kann, sind weitere Sorgen - wie zum Beispiel das Fehlen eines ihrer Lieblingsgemälde oder eine Leiche, die am Pool von Buckingham Palace liegt... Die Tote war eine langjährige Haushälterin, und hartnäckige Gerüchte über deren Unbeliebtheit verlangen nach diskreten Nachforschungen.

221b Baker Street is known all over the world, for it’s the address most associated with the legendary Sherlock Holmes! But there was a time before Sherlock Holmes moved to Baker Street, before his fame had grown, when he was still learning his craft and struggling to create his unique profession - the first of its kind - consulting detective! Join some of the finest Sherlockian writers as they explore those early days before Baker Street. 

Sherlock Holmes! The very name of the world's greatest detective conjures up images of Victorian London, gaslit streets, hansom cabs, and dense fogs. But there was a time, a dark three-year period, when London had to make do without Sherlock Holmes. From 1891 to 1894, he was presumed dead, having perished during the epic struggle with that infamous Napoleon of crime, Professor Moriarty, atop the Reichenbach Falls. But unknown to most, even his friend Dr. Watson, Holmes survived.

Thus begins Mycroft Holmes’s valiant, if irregular, attempt to chronicle his doings. Rediscovered in 1976 and now fully translated from an obscure code, Mycroft’s diaries reveal that a brother’s lot is not always a happy one, especially when that brother happens to be London’s only consulting detective. In this humorous look at the world of Sherlock Holmes through Mycroft’s eyes, one question always remains: will Sherlock ever get a proper job?

È un mite inizio di primavera al castello di Windsor e la regina Elisabetta si sta preparando per le celebrazioni del suo novantesimo compleanno. Le attività tuttavia sono bruscamente interrotte non appena il giovane pianista russo che ha deliziato gli ospiti la sera precedente viene ritrovato cadavere, completamente nudo, appeso in camera sua con la cintura della vestaglia. Quando le indagini si concentrano sulla servitù, la regina capisce che la polizia sta seguendo la pista sbagliata.

Queen Elisabeth II. hat eine heimliche Passion: Sie löst für ihr Leben gern Kriminalfälle! Unerkannt, versteht sich... Als nach einer Feier auf Schloss Windsor der junge russische Pianist tot in seinem Zimmer liegt, wittert de MI5 sofort ein Komplott Putins. Die Queen ist not amused über so viel Übereifer. Wird es gelingen, dem wahren Mörder auf die Spur zu kommen, Bevor es zu diplomatischen Verwicklungen kommt? Very british und schwungvoll spannend: Mit Das Windsor-Komplott legt S J Bennett den ersten Band ihrer höchst originellen Krimireihe vor - ein königliches Vergnügen!

There is a persistent and incorrect idea, reinforced by countless film misrepresentations, that Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were always staid and dull British chaps of middle years (or older), with Holmes a spry, cranky, and impatient eccentric, and Watson a white-haired and portly Boobus Brittanicus, a la Nigel Bruce. Students of the true and Canonical Sherlock Holmes know this to be a falsehood. When we first meet them on January 1, 1881, Holmes is still 26 years old (although he will turn 27 in just a few days), and Watson, already a wounded war veteran, is only 28.

2016. Dronning Elizabeth befinder sig i noget af et mareridt. En folkeafstemning splitter nationen, et kaotisk valg optager USA, og en ansat bliver fundet død ved swimmingpoolen på Buckingham Palace. Er der tale om en tragisk ulykke, som politiet tror? Mens Hendes Majestæt søger efter svar, er hendes betroede assistent, Rozie, på sporet af et værdifuldt maleri, der er forsvundet fra dronningens gemakker. Da Rozie modtager et anonymt trusselsbrev, er dronningen ikke længere i tvivl om, at mørke kræfter er på spil – og alt for tæt på.

A Buckingham Palace l'autunno del 2016 si prospetta particolarmente gravoso: la regina Elisabetta deve occuparsi di un referendum che ha diviso la nazione, di una Brexit alle porte e di un imponente piano di ristrutturazione della dimora reale. Eppure l'ordine delle sue preoccupazioni è stravolto quando il cadavere di una governante viene ritrovato a bordo piscina. Si tratta di una tragica fatalità o a Buckingham Palace sta accadendo qualcosa di sinistro?

Estamos a principios de la primavera de 2016 en el castillo de Windsor, donde Isabel II ultima los preparativos de las celebraciones de su nonagésimo aniversario mientras saborea una matutina taza de té.
