Joel Burns has always believed his father is still alive. His mother Jackie has long been glad to know Gilberto is dead.When a sighting on a news report from Rio de Janeiro suggests Joel might be right, he travels to Brazil determined to find his long-lost father. Nelson, a down-and-out musician guided by the spirits of Jesus, Yemanja and his late Aunt Zila, helps Joel retrace his childhood steps -- and face up to the contrast between his rosy memories of Gilberto and his mother's accounts of the man's cruelty. Back at home in Brighton, Joel's trip stirs up Jackie's own recollections of her life in Rio -- from the beautiful early years of Gilberto trying to make it in the bossa nova scene, to the violent times following his arrest and imprisonment by the military authorities.Invisibles spans two cities by the sea and four decades of music, torture and romance. From the streets of Brighton to the bars of Rio, Ed Siegle weaves the rhythms of Brazil and the troubles of his characters into an absorbing story of identity, love and loss. At once familiar and foreign, this sweet, sad and compulsively readable first novel throngs with visceral memory and unbreakable ordinary heroes.

Depression

By: Constance Hammen,Ed Watkins

Depression provides a valuable and accessible resource for students, practitioners, and researchers seeking an up-to-date overview and summary of research-based information about depression. With the help of clinical examples, the authors present chapters covering the hypothesized causes of depression, including genetic and biological factors, life stress, family, and interpersonal contributors to depression. The third edition extensively updates prior coverage to reflect advances in the field. The presumed causes of depression from both a biological perspective as well as from social and cognitive perspectives are explored in detail. Two chapters explore the most recent developments in pharmacological and biological interventions and in psychological treatments, as well as the prevention of depression. This new edition includes updated discussion about challenges in research, including heterogeneity and diagnosis of depression and proposed solutions, as well as the efficacy and availability of treatments. Authored by experts in the field who are active researchers and clinicians, Depression provides a state-of-the-art primer for final year undergraduate and postgraduate students, clinicians, professionals, and researchers seeking a broad reference task that critically evaluates research into depression.

History of Kanelly, Roache, Pike, Baskas, Barry

Pioneers and Generation 1

By: Richard S. Baskas, Ed.D.

About the Book History of Kanelly, Roache, Pike, Baskas, Barry chronicles the history of Richard Baskas’ paternal mother's side of the family, who were Irish, including as many family members as possible. This book started from scratch, as Richard had no idea how to get started in genealogy. He and his brother grew up in another family, and they had always wondered who was in their family and who they were related to. He has spent many years trying to find what information he could to connect all the dots. This particular version of this history is composed of many newspaper articles that were never included in other versions. Learn all about this family tree and how Richard and his family are all connected! About the Author Richard S. Baskas, Ed.D., is an Air Force partially disabled veteran who served as a firefighter and 911 dispatcher. He spent many of those years volunteering in the community and helping primary schools with their students. His only hobby is genealogy, as he has a few books published. He learned this craft from scratch but is not certified. Richard has an undergraduate degree in Biology, an MA in Teaching Science, and an Ed.D. in Adult Education. He has spent many years teaching, from military airmen to prison inmates.
