The post-partum period is challenging. Everyone - your mom, well-meaning strangers, and your OB/Gyn - constantly tells you to get more sleep, make sure you're eating well-balanced meals, and drink lots of water. But every time someone offers you a bit of advice, you want to throw your hands to the sky and shout, "But how?"

The seven volumes of Studies in the Psychology of Sex by Havelock Ellis (1859-1939) that appeared between 1900 and 1928 were each a landmark in the more open considerations of sexual impulse in the Western world. And none more so than Volume 2, which appeared in 1900. It examined homosexuality, though Ellis more frequently used the term sexual inversion, which, at the time, had broader (but not derogatory) implications.

Kate Lawler has never been maternal. And yet here she is: mother to Noa, after years of going back and forth about having children at all. This is the story of her journey from parentally undecided to early motherhood, via raging hormones, sleepless nights, emergency hospital trips, mum guilt, unspoken regrets and post-natal depression. This book is not a parenting manual. It won't tell you what to pack in your hospital bag, or how to get your baby to sleep. It may not help you with feeding or dealing with tantrums. But it will show you that you're not alone.

Fire Island, a thin strip of beach off the Long Island coast, has long been a vital space in the queer history of America. Both utopian and exclusionary, healing and destructive, the island is a locus of contradictions, all of which coalesce against a stunning ocean backdrop. Now, poet and scholar Jack Parlett tells the story of this iconic destination—its history, its meaning and its cultural significance—told through the lens of the artists and creators who sought refuge on its shores.

Men have been conditioned at a young age into thinking they only need to show one side: Strong and unemotional. Anything less than masculine perfection isn't worthy enough.

It will also help you build a stronger sense of self-worth without feeling doubt or shame.

Expert medical help and his own determination not to give in saw him through. His life, though, had changed forever...

Havelock Ellis (1859-1939) was a pioneering figure in modern sexual studies. In the early years of the 20th century, through his seven volumes of Studies in the Psychology of Sex, he paved the way for a more scientific and less judgemental attitude towards the subject, unhampered by the restrictions of religious or moral conventions. Ellis (simultaneously with Sigmund Freud) helped Western society to consider sexual behaviour, in all its many forms, with fresh eyes.

In Why Your Baby's Sleep Matters, renowned gentle parenting expert Sarah Ockwell-Smith demonstrates how nurturing babies at night helps their brain development, and covers the topics every parent of a new baby will need to know about, including naps, SIDS, night weaning, and coping with your own exhaustion - and even dealing with advice and criticism from others.

Pregnancy, labor, and delivery have been associated with pain, hospitals, and medication. Historically, women were stripped of the knowledge of the life-giving beings they are and relegated to the status of patients. They were told they had to give birth in an antiseptic hospital room, lying on their backs, and straining to push out their babies. But a new era of birthing moms are taking their power back and reclaiming the birth of their babies for the awe-filled, peaceful, and joyous experience it is meant to be.
