brossura Questo manuale spiega le tecniche di seduzione olistica, cioè la scuola di seduzione fondata da Massimo Del Piacere, che unifica tutte le tecniche più efficaci con le conoscenze di svariate discipline umanistiche, per ottenere la massima efficacia in ogni situazione. La seduzione è sia una scienza che un'arte. È scienza perché necessita di procedure specifiche di analisi, di sintesi e d'azione, cioè di tecniche usate all'interno di precise strategie. È arte perché tutte queste procedure vanno armonizzate insieme in base alle caratteristiche individuali del seduttore, il cui comportamento deve essere il più fluido e spontaneo possibile, anche in base alla situazione in cui si trova e al tipo di donna corteggiata. La scienza senza arte renderebbe la seduzione troppo meccanica, l'arte senza scienza la renderebbe troppo dispersiva. La seduzione consta di tre fasi, ognuna delle quali è suddivisa in due sottofasi: prima conoscenza (primo approccio e prima conversazione), avvicinamento (contatti e appuntamenti), e conquista (preliminari e sesso). Si tratta di un percorso a ostacoli, che il manuale spiega come superare per raggiungere la tanto desiderata conquista finale.

364 pages. "This book endeavors to raise up the fallen, to shed the light of knowledge where only the darkness of the vilest prudery reigns, to place health of body and purity of mind whithin the reach of every human soul now struggling in the mire of weakness, disease, mental and moral filth. An to men who have been tortured almost beyond mortal endurance as the result of ignorance and sin, at times welcomed inknowingly, this book is reverently dedicated." - from Dedication page.

The thirty-four chapters cover such topics as: Selecting a wife; Love-making and its dangers; Establishing the intimate relations of marriage; Should husbands be present at childbirth; The Erring Wife; Sowing Wild Oats; The truth about masturbation; how virility is destroyed, and much much more.

br. Dalla separazione alla nuova coabitazione, il libro descrive dettagliatamente le diverse tappe che portano a ricostruire una nuova famiglia, e per ciascuno di questi passaggi propone soluzioni concrete a tutti gli aspetti più difficili. L'autrice consiglia non solo come gestire la separazione, ma anche come 'ricostruire' la propria vita sentimentale, tenendo conto dei figli. Con sensibilità e competenza affronta dunque diversi temi: come presentare i bambini al nuovo compagno o compagna; come coinvolgerli; come sciogliere i nodi dei rapporti con eventuali figli del nuovo partner; come affrontare la decisione di creare una nuova famiglia e concepire, perché no, un altro bambino... e altri ancora.
