GaDangmes of Ghana claim through oral history that they are descendants of ancient Hebrew Israelites. They refer to themselves as Yudafoi, meaning they are Jews. This book traces the origins of GaDangmes and their migration from ancient Israel, following the attack of Israel by the Assyrians to their present abode in Ghana. The ancestors of the GaDangmes were ruled by Wulomei (The High Priesthood). The book discusses GaDangme custom and traditions, including the Homowo Festival, Otufo/Dipo, circumcision, and outdooring (sanctification) of the child after birth. These traditions and customs of GaDangmes are of Hebraic origins. GaDangmes names are like genetic markers and are scattered throughout The Old Testament. Some of the names of their towns and villages bear Hebrew names. Tamar Kemp describes the GaDangmes of Ghana as descendants of authentic biblical Hebrew/Israelites whose ancestors once reigned supreme in the motherland. Joseph Nii Abekar Mensah, PhD., is currently a clinical/educational consultant with Progressive Learning Institute & Counselling Services in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Dr. Mensah is the founder of GaDangme Heritage & Cultural Foundation. Born and raised in Accra (Ganyobi), Ghana, the author pursued studies in applied biology in London, England, with specialization in pharmacology. He also holds undergraduate and graduate degrees in psychology and in education. "I had always wanted to know why my people call themselves 'Gamei, ' meaning 'Ga people.' I learned they are of Hebrew Israelite origins, possibly from the tribes of Gad and Dan." Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/JosephNiiAbekarMensah

Stress is a major problem that affects nearly everyone. Stress is believed to be number one killer in most industrialized societies. Throughout the centuries, professionals and the wider public have attempted to find ways to manage or alleviate stress and its impact on our health. Cannon's Stimulus Response theory and Selye's General Adaptation Syndrome have helped us understand the psychological and physiological mechanisms associated with stress. In the author's view, what is needed is an integrated approach in understanding stress, its causes, and its effects on the human being, both physiologically and psychologically. Stress Management and Your Health shows the ways we minimize stress, as well psycho-therapeutic theories and techniques for managing stress. Stress management techniques have also been explored cross-culturally. This information is useful to the wider public, students, mental health professionals, and mental health educators.
