Sinossi

When Anna Wickins began counselling with her therapist, Paddy Magrane, she could barely speak in their sessions, silenced by traumatic memories from two decades before. But as trust built, Anna felt able to open up and she started to talk about the terrifying ordeal she experienced at university. As Anna examined her past, a transformation was occurring across the room. Listening to her tale awakened painful memories in Paddy about the horrors that occurred at his boarding school.
After two years of healing work, Anna and Paddy embarked on an unusual therapeutic exercise: a visit to the site of her trauma, where Anna physically confronted the scenes of her nightmares. With Paddy's reassurance and support, she was finally able to leave her demons behind. Once robbed of a voice, Anna now helps others to find theirs, in the same way that Paddy helped her.
Told in alternating perspectives, Both Sides of the Couch is a searingly honest account of how counselling shapes both client and therapist. A unique window into therapy, it shows, for the first time, the journey through the eyes of both participants. Both Sides of the Couch is a moving and inspirational story of finding light in the darkest of times.

    Critically acclaimed Relationship Sex-pert, and licensed therapist Dr. Tiy-E Muhammad is back with his latest installment aptly titled "Notes from a Professional Player, The Gangster and The Gentleman" where he boldly tackles the antiquated meaning of "Player" and offers a re-imagined definition of what a contemporary player, aka Ladies Man, is or supposed to be. Drawing upon his debut novel, "From "Player to Poet," and his years in private marriage and family counseling, Dr. Tiy-E now raises the bar, and zeros in on the definition of a "PROFESSIONAL PLAYER," and his responsibilities.  And because it takes one to know one, Dr. Tiy-E says "I take complete ownership on the concept, usage, definition, and knowledge of the word Player in this book."  In "Notes," the former radio and tv personality, explicitly addresses a wide range of topics from male sexual prowess (BDE too!) to the sometimes-taboo subject of male hygiene or, lack-there-of. It also includes much deeper, introspective chapters on self-image, and fatherhood, encouraging readers to take a deeper look at their true self versus their perceived self. In "Notes," Dr. Tiy-E lays out a CIA style of question and answer to guide readers to uncover their own truth by way of candid examples and uncensored storytelling. Delivering dating tips decade-by-decade, Dr. Tiy-E holds men accountable for the fundamentals all "True Players" should adhere to — the foundation of which— is Love of self. From moments that tug at your heart, to his lifetime of lessons in manhood, Dr. Tiy-E is unwavering in his truth serum. And it Works! Perhaps the reason his latest installment is as brilliantly authentic as his namesake.

    Russell Means was the most controversial American Indian leader of our time, and in Where White Men Fear to Tread, he recounts pivotal moments of his life. Means did everything possible to dramatize and justify the American Indian aim of self-determination—from storming Mount Rushmore and seizing Plymouth Rock to running for President in 1988. Perhaps most notoriously, in 1973, Means led a 71-day takeover of Wounded Knee, South Dakota.

Featuring the reading of a traditional Lakota prayer, this visionary autobiography by a magnetic personality will fascinate, educate, and inspire listeners to learn more about Native American activism and history.

    Two Oppositional Figures in Church History Shed Light on Division in the Church Today
Our current culture seems to be increasingly divided on countless issues, including those affecting the church. But for centuries, theological disagreements, political differences, and issues relating to church leadership have made it challenging for Christians to foster unity and love for one another.
In this book, author Tim Cooper explores this polarization through the lives of two oppositional figures in church history: John Owen and Richard Baxter. Cooper highlights their individual stories while showing how their contrasting life experiences, personalities, and temperaments led to their inability to work together. After exploring these lessons from the past, readers will gain insights into their own relationships, ultimately learning how to love and live in harmony with their fellow believers despite their disagreements.

- Timely: In today's deeply divided culture, this book offers past examples to help spur unity among believers today
- Historical: Biographical examination of two Puritan writers from the 17th century: John Owen and Richard Baxter
- Accessible: Short format and crisp writing style offer an engaging story with no background knowledge required
