Michael Cooper's superb photographs provide a unique insider's view of the Sixties. It was a prolific and exhilarating period of artistic cross-fertilization. For the first time in Britain the class barriers were really down; in London, everyone seemed to know everyone, and we were unaware how close The Rolling Stones and the Beatles were. Through his association with Robert Fraser and the Stones and The Beatles, Michael met the artists, writers, poets and musicians of the time and the courtiers around them. He introduced these people to each other. Many of those who brilliantly lit up the decade on both sides of the Atlantic were photographed by him. His most well known photographic assignment was the album cover for The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

If you have been struggling with communication, or underestimating its importance in life, this book is a reawekening. It could offer you the very solution to the failures you may have been experiencing in the various realms of life. Effective communication is a discipline that has evolved over time. This is due to the fact that communication is a means of interaction among people, for various purposes. Nowadays, the need to study communication, in a structured way and how it is applied in the various areas of interaction, has arisen. That has created a need to study communication in a structured way in terms of how it is applied in the various areas of interaction. Communication is a vast subject studied from different perspectives and in light of the applicable psychological underpinnings. This book is intended to be widely relevant and it has tried to assemble all the possible areas of concern where people have to demonstrate communication skills, listing areas where one could either thrive or languish, depending on the effectiveness of communication. My promise is that you will find several connections that apply to your situation when you read this book. <ul> <li>Learn the various barriers that usually hold you back in your efforts to exude confidence and command strong communication. You will learn how the way you communicate is either a show of your strong personality and competence, or it isn't.</li> <li>It will help you learn how communication should happen in business and formal circles. If you have not been doing well in interviews, this book offers you opportunities to see your shortfalls and beat them.</li> <li>Learn that the application of communication is socialisation. You will realise that communication is the bolt that tightens our relationships, or the thread that loosens them.</li> <li>You will know how to use communication to connect and liaise with others, make friends and thrive at relationships.</li> </ul> When you read this book, you will learn ways to successfully overcome your personal limitations. It will trigger the awareness of the possibilities that you can capitalise on, to excel in many departments of your everyday life. Of course, you do not become limitless by simply reading some book. You might have thought that communication is about being gifted, and not reading or training about it. On the contrary, gifts can be learned and acquired. The most popular politicians able to deliver powerful speeches take hours to rehearse and learn the circumstances. This book makes you realise that you have limitations and compels you to face them. However, it also offers an abundance of possibilities to use to become an effective communicator. So, why not commit to reading this book as you reflect on yourself and accept it as a tool to screen and reveal your communication capabilities. Take the challenges that the book offers and begin to see communication as a purposeful phenomenon, as opposed to a spontaneous occurrence. Then, learn and practise. Follow the exercises that the book offers and you will start to activate the potential within you, to succeed with communication.

Non-Violent Communication: The Best Way to Connect with Others and Build the Foundations of a Healthy Relationship, Through A Language in Harmony with The Universe

Do you have a hard time understanding why some people simply blow up for no apparent reason? 
Does it seem hard to get a handle on your emotions at times especially when others are being unreasonable? 
Do you feel that no matter how hard you try some people are just keen on blowing things out of proportion? 
Does it seem like your patience is running thing with some individuals who strive to upset you? 
If you can relate to any of these questions, then this book is for you. 
In this volume, you will find a helpful introduction to the practice of nonviolent communication for people who are thinking about learning about the NVC method and its practices, or even for people who are already beginning to learn about it to be able to understand it a little bit better! “Nonviolent Communication: The best ways to connect with others and build the foundations of a healthy relationship, through a language in harmony with the universe” will allow you to be able to gain a much clearer understanding of the NVC method and the different things that it aims to teach people with regards to being able to communicate effectively with other people around them. 
The nonviolent communication method focuses on a number of different concepts that all promote peaceful and wholesome ways of living that can allow you to be able to live a healthier lifestyle in terms of your mental and emotional states. Some of the basic concepts that the NVC method attempts to teach people are split up into two groups of four components that can be applied in different ways to allow you to be able to communicate more effectively with the people around you and even to be able to understand yourself and your own feelings and emotions on a much deeper level. The four components of the nonviolent communication method are: Observations, or the things that you perceive in the people and the world around you. In the context of these four components of the nonviolent communication, this refers to the things that happen to and around you that might cause specific reactions from you or other people. Feelings, or the emotions that you experience as a reaction to the observations that you make or the things that happen to and around you. Needs, or the fundamental things that all people require in order to be emotionally and mentally satisfied or fulfilled. Requests, or the expressions that you or other people make to inform other people about the things that you might need and asking (not demanding) for help to allow you to meet those needs for yourself or even for other people. 
These four components are also split up into the two parts of the nonviolent communication model, which are commonly referred to as “empathically listening” and “honestly expressing”. The first component, empathically listening, refers to the ability to listen to other people, considering the four components of the NVC method, in order to allow them to be able to understand and meet their own needs. The second part, called honestly expressing, refers to the ability to understand your own observations, feelings, needs, and requests, and to express each of those four components effectively and peacefully. The nonviolent communication has been developed specifically to enable people to be able to cooperate and communicate effectively with the people around them, and this book is designed to help you to gain a more complete understanding of the NVC method in order to do so. Once you have finished reading this book, you should have a much better understanding of the method and how to live a peaceful and happy life by practicing the techniques that the nonviolent communication method teaches.

Michael 'Mini' Cooper knew he was different from an early age. Fiercely independent, he challenged injustice and questioned what he perceived to be the irrational belief systems of both parents and teachers alike. But no one wanted to listen and they didn't want him heard. After several failed attempts at beating him into submission, he fought back with devastating consequences. Michael Cooper didn't always know the truth but he understood the lie. Some have described him as a warrior of justice but for him it was always about the human spirit and the right to let breathe freely.
