Amy's Vigilante

By: Paul Victor

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The law cannot solve every problem. Thirteen year old Amy is being stalked by the money launderer for the area's biggest drug smuggler. The police can't help. Amy's parents see their bright and bubbly daughter's life being destroyed and decide that they must end her victimization. Amy's mother, a gutsy former army nurse, and her father, now a professor but with training for the Special Forces, take the law into their own hands, only to discover that a dead pedophile is not the end of their problems. A pair of private detectives, themselves not adverse to vigilante justice, battles the dead pedophile's boss, a paranoid drug smuggler tormented by his fear of his competitors. Seeing real threats and imagining others, he lives by the motto, "If you don't understand it, kill it." Most of the dead deserve it.

Infant Depression

Paradigms and Paradoxes

By: Paul V. Trad

For me, the word "infant" has always had a strange and compelling fascination. This book, in essence, represents the first step of what I hope will be a long and fruitful journey into the mysteries of the infant psyche, with special emphasis on the phenomenon of early-life depressive symptomatology. From the outset of my medical training, I was particularly attracted to the field of psychiatry. As a resident exposed to adult patients in a psychiatric ward, I can vividly recall, even these many years later, the deep sense of poignancy and distress while in the presence of minds gone awry. It is my belief that psy chiatry, more than any other branch of medicine, presents the physician with the ultimate paradox-the elusive diagnosis. By this I mean that while the symp tomatology of psychiatry may be classified and analyzed, while diagnoses, prog noses, and treatment schedules can be devised, within psychiatry the unique configuration of each individual patient emerges with a clarity and distinction unparalleled in any other medical field. Before any psychiatric diagnosis can be formulated, the therapist must first delve deeply into the ultimate singularity of the patient. As a consequence, psychiatry is, in the final analysis, concerned with the dignity of each patient, and the psychiatrist is continually challenged to explore the most formidable and elaborate aspect of each person-the human mind. That said, I need to express the reasons for my dedication to child psychiatry.

A Detour of Love

By: Kristopher Paul

A stranger becomes stranded in an unfamiliar town while traveling on a business trip. Josh wasn’t satisfied with his life even though he’d experienced more success than most people before a turn of fate helped him realize how empty his life was. Becoming stranded brings him into contact with Amy, whom he rapidly falls in love with. He quickly realizes that the town he initially wanted to get away from as fast as possible is a community that he never wants to leave. Living with Amy and her parents causes him to question his previous sense of importance and allows him to connect and identify with the residents of the local community. An idea of Amy’s turns into an opportunity that many of the residents of the local community can benefit from, and Josh learns how to be a concerned representative of his community.

Blissfully unaware that his mother-inlaw had plotted with his wife to abduct his son while on a trip to Greece, Ian found himself alone and broken-hearted in a strange country.

Behavioral Methods in Social Welfare

Behavioral Methods in Social Welfare

By: Steven Paul Schinke,James. K Whittaker,Scott Briar

Behavioral Methods in Social Welfare" offers positive proof that behaviorism has come of age in social work. Steven Paul Schinke and the contributors to this volume are social work practitioners who document their attempts to extend the basic tenets of behavioral psychology from the laboratory, clinic, and classroom to the full range of client groups and social problems that make up the practice of social work. In social work education, traditionally to the extent it appeared in the curriculum at all, behavioral content appeared in electives or in courses not focused on practice. It is a true measure of progress that behavioral methods are now visible, integral component of social work education and practice.The authors of each piece in this collection indicate progress in developing an empirically based approach to social work practice. Despite the impressive documentation contained in the present volume, no conclusive evidence as to the effectiveness of behavioral methods exists. What behavioral methods do offer, however, is a systematic format for both problem intervention and evaluation that, over time, should produce a more empirically based practice. A promising sign, well documented in the present effort, is the facility with which this book has subjected practice procedures to the rigor of research and evaluation.This blending of clinical practice and research develops the sense of competence that student-practitioners acquire in understanding and controlling both the art and science of their clinical practice. Steven Schinke and his colleagues offer a series of "snapshots" of important work in process. Their collective portrait provides a fresh perspective and new stimulus for all social work practice, as well as an affirmation that disciplined, responsive, and sensitive social work intervention can make a difference in the lives of people.

Prayer: God’s Invitation to Relationship

By: Paul Holt

If you are inquisitive about prayer or are dissatisfied with your prayer life, Prayer: God’s Invitation to Relationship can direct you toward contemporary and historical accounts that will show you how God’s kingdom grows as people pray, transforming individuals and situations. Through these explorations and a number of practical tools, you too can build a prayer habit and kick-start your prayer life. In Prayer: God’s Invitation to Relationship, author Paul Holt explores individual prayer as a means of responding to God’s call to connect with Him as Father and Friend. Beginning with a review of Jesus’s instructions to his disciples about praying (“whenever you pray”), Holt draws upon a wide range of Christian source material to illustrate individual prayer as a means of building a relationship with God. He draws attention to the God who longs for his people to pray so that he can bring blessing. Four threads of our growing relationship through prayer are identified, including openness and honesty, attentive listening, partnership and transformation.

The Secret Life of Elizabeth I

A fascinating interpretation of an enigmatic monarch

By: Paul Doherty

A secret that could have changed the course of English history... Acclaimed historian Paul Doherty offers an insightful interpretation of one of the most fascinating English monarchs in his masterful 'faction', The Secret Life of Elizabeth I. From master historian Paul Doherty comes a detective story with a difference: tracking down the real Elizabeth I, and capturing the atmosphere of Elizabethan and Jacobean England. Written as a 'faction', The Secret Life of Elizabeth I interprets original sources through one of the Queen's ladies-in-waiting. These illuminating 'recollections' form the book, uncovering everything from the passionate relationship between Elizabeth and Robert Dudley, to the stunning revelation that they had a son, Arthur Dudley, seized by the Spanish in 1587. What readers are saying about Paul Doherty: 'Doherty is a spellbinding storyteller with an exceptional grasp of history. This story is of the usual high standard we expect from him and utterly fascinating, I couldn't put it down' 'This book is beyond fantastic. Paul Doherty brought Elizabethan times back to life here - making you feel you're there' 'Doherty proves that he is a scholar as well as a writer of novels

Taming Information Technology

Lessons from Studies of System Administrators

By: Eser Kandogan,Paul Maglio,Eben Haber,John Bailey

Information technology is at the center of modern life. It supports most day-to-day activities: talking on the phone, getting money from an ATM, or working in the office. Whether for work, commerce, or fun, we interact with computers, networks, and databases -- all sorts of information technology. How does it work? Certainly, technological advances helped create this world. But what keeps it running? The answer is people. These people -- computer system administrators -- are the unsung heroes of the modern age. This book, ten years in the making, is the result. It tells the story of system administration through the narratives of real system administrators. It documents dynamic systems of people and machines, of specialists working together to tame hugely complex information technology infrastructures, developing and adapting their own tools and practices over time to create productive work environments. The authors hope Taming Information Technology will lead the way to a future in which the important work of these IT workers is better appreciated, better understood, and better supported.

Hear No Evil

My Story of Innocence, Music, and the Holy Ghost

By: Matthew Paul Turner

Every Life Has a Soundtrack. If you’ve ever had the opening bars of a song transport you back in time or remind you of a pivotal spiritual moment, Matthew Paul Turner’s honest—and frequently hilarious—musings will strike a chord. Straightforward and amusing, Hear No Evil is Turner’s “life soundtrack,” a compilation of engaging personal stories about how music—and music’s ability to transform—has played a key role in his spiritual life. Groove along on his journey as young evangelical Turner attends forbidden contemporary Christian concerts, moves to “Music City” Nashville, and dreams of becoming the Michael Jackson of Christian music. Cosmic and compelling, keen and funny, every page is a new encounter with the people, places, and experiences that have taught the music-editor-turned-author some new things about God, forced him out of his comfort zone, and introduced him to a fresh view of grace along the way.

The Healing Art of Qi Gong

Ancient Wisdom from a Modern Master

By: Master Hong Liu,Paul Perry

Dr. Liu describes how he risked his life under the Communist regime in China to study Qi Gong and meet secretly with a master who lived in a mountain cave above Shanghai. If there is one concept that comes up in all forms of Chinese medicine it is that of Qi, or vital energy. Qi is the very backbone of the Chinese healing arts. It refers to the energy of the universe that is channeled from nature and runs through all of us. To have Qi is to be alive, while to have none is to be dead. Qi Gong relies on the manipulation of this vital energy, and Qi Gong masters can see this energy. This book explores the basics of Qi Gong to create a guide for greater health, the Chinese way.

The Hellraiser Films and Their Legacy

The Hellraiser Films and Their Legacy

By: Paul Kane

Best-selling horror novelist Clive Barker's 1987 film Hellraiser has become an undisputed horror classic, spawning a movie franchise that to date includes eight films. Exploring not only the cinematic interpretations of the Hellraiser mythos but also its intrusion into other artistic and cultural forms, this volume begins by identifying the unconventional sources of Barker's inspiration and following Barker from his pre-Hellraiser cinematic experience through the filming of the horror classic. It examines various themes (such as the undermining of the traditional family unit and the malleability of the flesh) found throughout the film series and the ways in which the representation of these themes changes from film to film. The religious aspects of the films are also discussed. Characters central to the franchise--and the mythos--are examined in detail.

Bullies in Power

By: Sergeant (Ret’d) Paul M. Lagace CD, BA

Bullies in Power is written from the heart with a down-to-earth style intended to move the reader along a path of life as experienced by a family dealing with the challenges of poverty and racially-motivated abusive authorities. This book conveys a powerful message that love, hope and determination provide the tools necessary to overcome lifes challenges. Not what I expected at all. When I began reading the manuscript I found it mesmerizing and had to read it all before putting it down. Ken Salter, BSW, RSW. Bullies in Power captivated me emotionally and spiritually. I couldnt help but admire the love and courage shared by this family Bernie Rothenburger, editor. There are many ways to tell a story but Bullies in Power reflects honesty at its most primitive level. There is no mistaking what the writer means. The facts are beyond contesting and so clearly presented that the reader feels the emotional content of the events described. Its as though the reader is living the experience.

Psychosocial Scenarios for Pediatrics

Psychosocial Scenarios for Pediatrics

By: Paul V. Trad

My interest in writing this book was sparked several years ago when I serv ed as a psychiatric liaison on a pediatric unit of a major urban hospital. I was asked to assess a 7-year-old Hispanic boy who had been admitted to the hospital several days earlier with complaints of chronic abdominal pain. Comprehensive physical evaluations of the child had revealed no organic abnormality or disease process, and the pedia tricians assigned to the case had begun to suspect that the little boy's symptoma tology sternmed from an emotional problem. After meeting with the child for several sessions, I learned that his abdominal pains had persisted for approximately 3 years, preventing him from attending school on a regular basis or from engaging in other activities. A detailed elinical history revealed that roughly 4 years earlier, the child's mother had remarried and this stepfather had moved into the home. The child's comments with respeet to this man were highly ambivalent. Nor was the nature of these conflicting feelings apparent to me at the time. Several days later, however, when the child had been told the date of his discharge from the hospital, I was informed that his anxiety had increased dramatically.

The American Women's Rights Movement

A Chronology of Events and of Opportunities from 1600 to 2008

By: Paul D. Buchanan

More than 140 entries in this book depict events which have had lasting national significance in opening opportunities in the struggle for equal civil rights and opportunities for women. The impact of many of the included events was initially felt on a local level; but in time it created repercussions that spread across the country. These stories show women assuming roles of providers and heads of households, and their leadership, exerted in and outside the home, would often manifest in the community at large and, in turn, in the nation and in the world. The book is divided into four parts: OneThe Seeds Are planted; Two19th CenturyThe Movement Takes Root; Three20th CenturyReaching for the Sunlight; Four21st CenturyComing into Full Bloom. The book begins with Anne Hutchinson and Mary Dyer and ends with Condoleezza Rice, Nan
