LOVE -- The Course They Forgot To Teach You In School
by Gregory J.P. Godek
published by Casablanca Press
a division of Sourcebooks, Inc.

Ever wonder why you studied all that geography, calculus, and chemistry when the skills you need most in life have more to do with chemistry of a different kind? Let's face it: school prepares us for the world of work; no one prepares us for the world of love. And yet for most of us, it is our close personal relationships that have the greatest impact on whether or not we are happy and fulfilled in life.

Most of us have figured out basic relationship skills (after some groping in the dark), but we don't see the same need for "continuing education" as we do in our careers. That's where Gregory J.P. Godek comes in. A relationship instructor for nearly 20 years, author of the phenomenal best-seller "1001 Ways to Be Romantic," Godek is the dean of student affairs in the school of life. "LOVE -- The Course They Forgot To Teach You In School" is his textbook. And, yes, it's required reading.

This book is intended for couples who have a working relationship they want to make better. It won't help you salvage a disastrous match, nor will it transform a lukewarm romance into burning passion overnight. Rather, it will help you raise your relationship grade by one full level if you make any kind of serious attempt at doing the exercises in the book.

SNOW JOB
by Barbara F. Graham

Barbara F. Graham goes for the jugular with a compelling, true-to-life exposure of America's corrupt family-law system and how it is draining the nation. Make your own journey from Security to Serenity as "Ursula Charbonnier" triumphs over substance abuse in the family, rapacious divorce attorneys, and court-induced homelessness.

OPINION LEADERS SAY...

"Barbara F. Graham's nonfiction novel exposes the lawyers, judges, and many professionals as paid enablers, tied into the drug and alcohol abuser's denial. While dad is getting
high and living high, Ursula Charbonnier and her children struggle to survive, facing bankruptcy and homelessness. It is incumbent upon all concerned citizens to understand that the current system is abuser-friendly, rather than family- friendly."
- Monica Getz, Founder National Coalition for Family Justice, Inc.

"Chemical Dependency --- addiction to alcohol or other mood- altering drugs --- is widely-known as 'The Family Disease.' Barbara F. Graham has described it well in all its horror and deceit."
- Donald F. Cutler, Founder Freedom from Chemical Dependency Foundation, Inc.

"Brava! Someone finally had the guts to tell it like it is!!!"
- Marie Defina, Founder and Executive Director Domestic Violence Training & Resource Institute, Inc.

READERS SAY...

"SNOW JOB was my first pleasure in the venture of recapturing my life."
- Shirley L. Brulotte, Manchester, New Hampshire

"This is the best $20 I've spent in years!" - Marina V. Baker, Toledo, Ohio

"Not whiny . . . SNOW JOB clearly shows how The System can be just as nutty and 'malpractical' toward men as women."
- Nelson Page, Austin, Texas

"A masterpiece!" - Charlotte Fink, Las Vegas, Nevada

"We sold more than $1,000-worth in two hours!"
- Nancy Decaneas, Co-Owner Dragon Books, Weston Center, Massachusetts

The Female Power Within

by Marilyn Graman and Maureen Walsh
with Hillary Welles
Published by Life Works Books

Discover the Extraordinary Power in Being Female!

Many women have achieved goals, personally and professionally, that our mothers and grandmothers could only dream of. We head corporations, compete in marathons, hold elected office, lead expeditions, write prize-winning novels, run universities, and in some cases raise children as well. We're so busy, in fact, that we often don't even have time to ask ourselves, "Is this what I want to be doing? Am I happy in my life? Is this it?"

In this rich and reassuring book, psychotherapist and creator of Life Works programs Marilyn Graman and her longtime associate Maureen Walsh give you the opportunity to ask these questions at last. You'll look at the cost of striving for power and success on male terms and discover what a truly successful life would be for you if you could define it for yourself. In short, you will discover the incredible power of being female.

Dozens of original "uncoverings" and reflective questions will help you see how you've been measuring yourself by "scorecards" that don't make sense for you and to get so clear and grounded in mind and body that the life you want just begins to flow toward you. The adrenaline rush of struggling and competing and never feeling centered and peaceful will simply lose its appeal as you open up to the magnificent power you already have within you.

As you begin to relax into your female power, you will be amazed at how much energy you liberate for making wise choices, receiving all the good there is to be had, drawing wonderful people toward you, and just plain having fun!

"The Female Power Within is a groundbreaking exploration of the nature of women's power."
-- Arianna Huffington, syndicated columnist and author

"An exciting and meaningful contribution to the worldwide shift occurring in women today. If you're serious about self-discovery, read this book!"
-- Beth Greer, President, The Learning Annex

"The Female Power Within is a beautifully written guidebook to help you tap into the inner reservoir of peace and joy that is your true nature."
-- Sri Swami Satchidananda, Integral Yoga Institutes
