    A German air force officer’s first person account of aerial battle during the invasion of Sicily in WWII.   In an account of unusual power, Luftwaffe ace Johannes Steinhoff draws from his personal World War II diary to recount the final days of the German air force on Sicily in June and July 1943. Facing crushing odds—including a commander, Hermann Goring, who contemptuously treated his pilots as cowards—Steinhoff and his fellow Messerschmitt 109 pilots took to the skies day after day to meet waves of dreaded Flying Fortresses and swarms of Allied fighters, all bent on driving the Germans from the island. A captivating narrative and a piercing analysis, this book is a classic of aerial combat.

    This collection brings together three powerful narratives from diverse cultures, each telling stories of cleverness, bravery, and the battle between good and evil. 
    The first story takes you through the myths of The Trickster Gods, devious and mischievous deities who use wit and cunning to challenge the status quo. Often playing pranks on gods and humans alike, these figures represent chaos and creativity, teaching important lessons about the consequences of trickery and the unpredictable nature of life. From the Norse Loki to the African Anansi, these tricksters serve as both villains and saviors, weaving their own kind of order out of disorder. 
    Next, venture into The Heroes of Myth, timeless figures whose valor and determination have inspired generations. These legendary warriors—like Hercules, Achilles, and Perseus—embody the ideals of courage, honor, and the willingness to face great challenges for the greater good. Their stories, filled with monsters, gods, and impossible feats, have shaped the way we view heroism and sacrifice across cultures and time periods. 
    Finally, explore Native American Legends, a rich tapestry of stories passed down through generations of indigenous peoples. These legends highlight the deep connection between humans, nature, and the spiritual world. From powerful tricksters like Coyote to brave heroes who protect their communities, these myths are filled with wisdom, moral lessons, and reflections on the balance between the material and spiritual realms. 
    Tricksters and Heroes invites readers to embrace the complexity of human nature through the lens of mythology, where mischief, valor, and everything in between reveal truths about the world we live in.

    The interest generated by our first book on High Sensitivity has encouraged us to continue with the dissemination of the trait. This second book focuses more on the difficulties experienced by highly sensitive people as well as on the psychological abilities they possess. Knowing how to manage the trait of High Sensitivity is fundamental to achieve the maximum potential in the personal growth of the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). Hence the importance of knowing how to meet the needs of highly sensitive children (HSC) from an early age. HSC children become HSP adults. Solve the issue from childhood, avoid the need for treatments later on. Throughout life, the HSP can go through transient psychological problems or disorders, derived from mismanagement of their trait. In these pages, we try to reflect real examples of people who have come to a psychology consultation looking for a solution to the ”bumps in the road”. Many HSPs discover it in the wake of one of these ups and downs in their lives. Knowing how to take the right path, choosing to have people close to them who respect the HSP trait, and learning to set limits, are the objectives most demanded by the HSPs who are treated by a mental health professional. This book aims to help both the reader, as well as the health or medical professional since, based on our experience as professional experts of High Sensitivity, we try to offer solutions to the problems that arise from being a HSP, examples of people who have gone through the same stages, as well as show some of the most common disorders derived from having this particular personality trait. Although being a HSP or HSC is not a disorder, it is necessary to learn to adapt to today`s society until society becomes familiar with High Sensitivity.
