3. Woman on Fire

Germany's most popular gynaecologist knows: the menopause is cooler than we think!
Hot flushes, weight gain, mood swings - hardly any woman is relaxed about the
menopause. Yet our image of perimenopause is hopelessly outdated and in desperate need of a makeover. Many women today suffer unnecessarily, and none "have to go through it". Once the symptoms are identified, we can do a lot for our health and well-being - and still feel strong and sexy in the second half of life.

10. The Secret The Secret

All readers are basically searching for the one insight that not only satisfies their intellectual curiosity, but also gives them guidance to make their lives happier and more fulfilling. This one insight - "The Secret", as author Rhonda Byrne calls it - has been present to a select few in human history. The emerald tablet of Hermes Trismegistos, the nucleus of all esoteric systems existing today, expressed it with the words: "As inside, so outside". Great minds such as Plato, Leonardo da Vinci and Einstein have known about the secret; modern authors such as Neale Donald Walsch and Bärbel Mohr have recently inspired millions of readers with it, and "The Secret", which has already enjoyed worldwide success as a documentary film, proves the truth of some of the basic findings in a convincing mixture of explanations by the author and quotes from well-known wisdom teachers: We ourselves are creators of our reality. The things we encounter in everyday life we have attracted by our own thought energy. The power we call "God" has never really been and never will be separated from us. Some bestselling authors send their heroes on an exciting search for a fictional secret. With "The Secret" you become a seeker yourself and can find a treasure - not fictitious, but real.
