"Omg!!!! Your book changed my life and is saving my relationship! Thank you so much for making me feel like a woman again!!!!". P.M Cancer survivor.
"This book is so wonderfully written and full of such helpful information I cannot recommend it highly enough, I would give it 6 stars if I could! ." K.V, cancer carer. Changes in sexuality from cancer treatments is one of the most common challenges people face, yet is one of the most under-addressed. Cancer can impact all aspects of our sex and intimate lives, so why is no one talking about sex and cancer? If you've received a cancer diagnosis, or are the loved one of someone who has, this book is for you. A Better Normal offers support and solutions to recover and increase connection, intimacy, sexuality and sex, during and after treatments. Simply put, this is the #1 'sex and cancer' manual. Jam-packed with practical ways and easy-to-do strategies for how to improve things like; low libido, changes in body image and body confidence, when things are 'dry & sore', dating, the more direct side-effects treatments can have on our body and ways to heal and work around them like pain, fatigue, when sex hurts, low sex-drive and so, so much more. This book is a must-have for anyone impacted by cancer who may need support, because we all deserve love and connection. Written by a sexuality clinician and educator, who's also had cancer, this book is filled with practical information (and quite a few laughs) so you can reconnect with yourself and/or a partner, from someone who's literally been there. Divided into easy-to-read sections, Dev?ze is no fluff and no fuss, with down to Earth humour mixed in with a dash of neuroscience. A Better Normal offers a positive path to your intimacy recovery, so what you thought was sexually impossible, becomes possible.

Rated 5 starsGreat reference book for a novice!
Our lead DBA told me about this book (an earlier edition) and I bought it over a year ago. Up until Feb. 2006, I had no idea what SQL was.

Rated 5 starsGreat depth of content, easy reading, not overboard but everything you need!
The best SQL book I've found so far. This is really just an update of "The Practical SQL Handbook" and that's a good thing.

I think the organization of the book makes sense and have had no problems finding answers while jumping around...

Rated 5 starsGood book, explains differences when necessary.
Does a good job of explaining SQL from the basic stuff up to highly complex queries. Goes into detail whenever necessary to explain the differences between an implementation in Oracle, SQL Server, mySQL, etc. Highly recommended.

Rated 5 starsEssential SQL Text Improves
What makes this Fourth Edition to the Practical SQL series special is the approach to teaching SQL shared by all the editions in this series. The same statements and queries are covered by many SQL texts, but not with the same clarity or teaching philosophy.Beginning programmers are often unaware that much of programming goes according to what I like to call "programmer lore." The accumulated tradition of practices that are...
