Mornin' Tiger

In the Sunshine and Shadows of Mourning

By: Nancy L. White

In her recent book Mornin' Tiger, Nancy White uses monologue, dialogue, soliloquy, prose, poetry, family pictures, journal excerpts, pertinent Bible verses, humor, autobiography, and an open heart to tell her story. It's a story of a devoted wife maturing spiritually, as she and her soul mate accept the challenges of everyday life, with courage, fortitude and most importantly, unconditional love. It becomes obvious that God orchestrated every event in their lives -temptations, trials, tribulations, sin, sickness, and suffering, and periodically worked everything out for their good, but always and ultimately for His glory. They were together in life, and in death. They will join hands and hearts when they meet together in glory. Mornin' Tiger is must reading for hurting hearts, and searching souls - Rev. Donald Gilmore

Tiger Pause

Lost in a Jungle Called Alcoholism

By: Nancy L. White

Tiger Pause offers a very personal glimpse into one womans experience of living with an active and later recovered alcoholic. Through excerpts from contemporaneous journals, and later reflections on her experience, she weaves along her pathway, and offers a beacon of hope to those undergoing a similar experience. As I read it, I laughed and I cried, and I learned how fierce was her determination to never let go, no matter how dark things looked. Her inspiration shines through this book. Rev. Jeff Rarich

The Silent and the Damned

The Murder of Mary Phagan and the Lynching of Leo Frank

By: Frey Seitz Frey,Nancy Thompson-Frey

The 1913 murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan would have far-reaching consequences for Georgia and the nation; in the years that followed a Jewish man named Leo Frank was convicted on dubious evidence, a governor's career toppled while an anti-Semite became Georgia's senator, and the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith was formed. The Silent and The Damned: The Murder of Mary Phagan and the Lynching of Leo Frank tells the horrifying story of how a trial spiraled into mob violence and propaganda campaigns against Jews in the South. The authors, Robert Seitz Frey and Nancy Thompson-Frey, detail the trial that portrayed Frank, the superintendent at the pencil factory where Phagan was employed, as a sexual misfit and killer. The authors describe the responses from and against the Jewish community in Atlanta, and reactions from religious groups and the press across the country. Frey and Thompson also tell of how new evidence from a witness who stayed silent for years brought the case back under scrutiny in the 1980s, leading to a posthumous pardon for Frank. John Seigenthaler, publisher of the Nashville Tennessean and a leader in the efforts to clear Frank's name, provides the introduction.

Ontological Humility

Lord Voldemort and the Philosophers

By: Nancy J. Holland

Neither self-effacing modesty nor religious meekness, ontological humility is a moral and philosophical attitude toward transcendence—the unknown and unknowable background of existence—and a recognition and awareness of the contingency and chance that influence the course of our lives. It is a concept that Nancy J. Holland finds both throughout the history of philosophy and across the volumes of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. Tracing it through the philosophical thought of figures ranging from Descartes, Hume, and Kant to Heidegger, Beauvoir, Merleau-Ponty, and Derrida, Holland uses the Harry Potter saga as a guide to illustrate the concept, revealing a whole set of ethical imperatives. Connecting the concept to contemporary gender and race theory, she demonstrates its implications both for our understanding of the philosophical tradition and for the way we live our own lives.

Pause and Reset

A Parent's Guide to Preventing and Overcoming Problems with Gaming

By: Nancy M. Petry

Over 90% of children and adolescents play electronic or computerized games, and 25% play for three hours a day or even longer. Although some degree of video game playing is normal, excessive playing can negatively impact schoolwork, kids' social lives, and even their health. Pause and Reset is aimed at parents concerned about the role of gaming in their children's lives. In this informative, reader-friendly book, addiction expert Dr. Nancy Petry sheds light on what constitutes problematic video gaming and what does not, how to determine whether a child, adolescent or young adult may be "addicted" to gaming or developing problems with it, and when to seek professional help. Setting this book apart from others on the subject, the author also provides accessible explanations of the latest science behind how gaming addiction impacts children, adolescents, and families; she also explores the question of whether gaming may have positive effects in certain situations. Finally, Dr. Petry offers three simple, easy-to-implement steps parents can take to reduce and reverse the harmful effects of gaming: Record, Replace, and Reward. Pause and Reset also provides exercises and worksheets to support parents' efforts to help their kids.

The Narcotic Farm

The Rise and Fall of America's First Prison for Drug Addicts

By: Nancy D. Campbell,JP Olsen,Luke Walden

The United States Narcotic Farm opened in 1935 in the rolling hills of Kentucky horse country. Portrayed in the press as everything from a "New Deal for the drug addict" to a "million-dollar flophouse for junkies," the sprawling art deco facility was equal parts federal prison, treatment center, working farm, and research laboratory. Its mission was to rehabilitate addicts, who were increasingly criminalized and incarcerated as a result of strict new drug laws, and to discover a cure for opiate addiction. This richly illustrated book offers an important history of this progressive yet ultimately doomed experiment. "Narco," as the locals called it, pioneered new treatments such as prescribing methadone to manage heroin withdrawal and developed drugs that blocked the action of opiates. The coed institution admitted federal prisoners as well as volunteers who checked themselves in for treatment, and through the years it hosted several legendary jazz musicians, including Chet Baker and Sonny Rollins, as well as actor Peter Lorre and writer William S. Burroughs. The facility ultimately closed in 1975 under a cloud as Congress learned that Narco researchers had recruited patients as test subjects for CIA-funded LSD experiments from 1953 to 1962, part of the notorious project MK-Ultra. Featuring a new foreword by Sam Quinones, The Narcotic Farm offers a vital perspective on US drug policy, addiction, and incarceration as the nation struggles with a new opioid epidemic.
