- Kurztext
- <p><b>A handbook for the happy, and a bible for the broken-hearted</b>, <i>The Alphabet of the Human Heart</i> is an enchanting and enriching journey through the upside and the downside of what it means to be human - our hopes and our fears, our strength and our weakness, our highs and our lows.</p><p><i>The Alphabet of the Human Heart</i> is a book of literally two halves. Firstly there is <i>upside</i> A-Z, which is full of the happy and hopeful aspects of our lives, such as A is for Adventure, through G is for Gratitude, S is for Smile to Zen is the Place to Be. The other <i>downside</i> half examines the negative parts of our character lives and how we can overcome them to lead more positive and fulfilling lives. From A is for Anger, through H is for Hate, T is for Temptation to once again end on Zen is the Place to be. </p><p>Matthew and James have been friends for over 30 years and they've experienced both sides of life - the upside and the downside - and they've turned their experience of life - and of friendship - into a book that combines words and pictures to tell a bigger story.</p><p><b>Praise for </b><b><i>I Had a Black Dog</i></b>:</p><p>'<i>I Had a Black Dog</i> says with wit, insight, economy and complete understanding what other books take 300 pages to say. Brilliant and indispensable.' - Stephen Fry<b></b> <b></b> <b>'</b>Finally, a book about depression that isn't a prescriptive self-help manual. Johnston's deftly expresses how lonely and isolating depression can be for sufferers. Poignant and humorous in equal measure.' <i>Sunday Times</i><b></b> <b></b> <b>Praise for </b><b><i>Living with a Black Dog:</i></b></p><p>'Moving and thoughtfully written ... a must-have' <i>Daily Mirror</i></p><p>'Comprehensive and very helpful ... brilliant' <i>Guardian Weekend</i></p>
