Adolf Bastian and the Psychic Unity of Mankind
Adolf Bastian mapped a programme for anthropological research in the nineteenth century which is still accepted in the international scholarly community today, without the figure of its founder being known. This is the first time that seminal pieces of the work of this much-neglected scholar have been translated into English. Bastian had an impact, directly and indirectly, on geography, psychology, comparative religious studies, and ethnology in the twentieth century.
Awaken
Bastian Caines has just entered university, has moved into his own house, and, (coincidentally, ) finished playing Master Tekcub in the latest instalment of the hugely successful Rejus movie series. He would have it all, if it wasn't for one small problem. He's madly in love. With his pin-up co-star, Liam Holmes, no less. The transition to adulthood and independence is set to become quite difficult for Bastian as he tries to deal with his overwhelming feelings.

Loyalty. Duty. Deceit. I never imagined my first trip to Italy would be to bury my father. But there I stood, alone in the ancient cathedral with my father’s casket, a handful of soldiers standing guard. It never occurred to me that anyone would disrupt the sanctity of the moment. But the Caballero brothers have little regard for the church and even less for my family. They marched in weapons in hand and turned my world upside down. They shattered what peace I had. They desecrated my father’s body. And they took what they wanted. Me. I’m a princess in a tower in a breathtaking villa. My bedroom overlooks the turquoise sea but the door is locked. And I have to contend with not one but two dragons.
The Other Side of Happiness
'Required reading ... Brock Bastian expertly picks apart the fundamental idea that humans thrive when they approach pleasure and avoid pain, explaining why hardship sometimes yields richer lives that are laden with meaning, deep social connections, and unexpected bliss' Adam Alter, author of Drunk Tank Pink In today's culture, happiness has become the new marker of success, while hardships are viewed as personal weaknesses, or problems to be fixed.

Yet in his research, renowned social psychologist Brock Bastian has found that suff...
Fiona's Fantasy
Fiona Jefferson knew all she needed in life was to be married, and she’d be happy. She imagined dancing with her husband under the moonlight. She wanted twelve children, six boys and six girls. But first she needed a husband. Unfortunately, she knew every man in town from their two-thousand-mile journey along the Oregon Trail, and none of them appealed to her. When she talked to her friends, Emma and Henri, about her situation, they both responded with the same man, one she’d already considered and decided wasn’t for her. Sam Appleby knew he was in love the first time he saw Fiona in Independence, Missouri. Unfortunately, he was too quiet to do anything about it. His younger brother did all the talking for both of them, and half the other men on the trail. When Fiona and Sam were set up by Emma and Henri, they immediately felt a connection. Within a week they were married. Everything was great for Fiona except she didn’t believe he loved her. She hoped one day he would say those three words, but within a few months, she’d almost given up hope. Would Sam ever say he loved Fiona? Or was she destined for a life of heartbreak?
