    Kingdom of Wolves clears the path to understanding the unconscious drives that motivate if not govern the behaviours of predators, abusers, bullies, their victims and the underlying issues that draw them to each other. The author demystifies the complexities of human behaviour, merging old concepts with new as she guides you through the emotional and psychological landscapes of the abuser’s and victim’s psyche. She provides a simple but profound insight into the adverse causes and outcomes of early childhood and adolescent development, linking it to present-day adult ways of life. Juliana, once a victim of domestic abuse herself, believes that freedom, reclamation, redemption and wholeness of spirit can only be achieved by taking a journey inward. She hopes through this book to provide a way forward for victims who are trapped by their past experiences or present-day abusive circumstances and concludes that the key to recognition, understanding and prevention of violence and abuse can only be gained through acquiring a deeper awareness of human behaviour.

    A Preface to Politics

    A Preface to Politics by Walter Lippmann is a groundbreaking exploration of political thought, personal psychology, and social reform at the dawn of the 20th century. First published in 1913, the book critiques the rigidities of conventional political ideologies and proposes a dynamic, human-centered approach to governance. Lippmann skillfully examines the psychological underpinnings of political behavior, dissecting how habits, taboos, and outdated moral codes shape policy and hinder progress. The book opens with a contrast between the "routineer"—a person of habitual action—and the "inventor," the creative force of political change. It moves through provocative chapters such as The Taboo, The Golden Rule and After, and Some Necessary Iconoclasm, where Lippmann challenges the reader to think beyond inherited values. His analysis of the Chicago Vice Report in Well Meaning but Unmeaning serves as a masterful example of how noble intentions can lead to shallow reform without systemic understanding. Throughout the text, Lippmann calls for a reimagining of creeds, values, and social goals that suit a rapidly evolving modern world. He does not advocate revolution for its own sake but underscores the need for cultural depth in true societal transformation. As a prelude to modern liberalism, this book laid the philosophical groundwork for future political discourse and remains influential in discussions on pragmatism, democracy, and progressive reform.

    Bearing the Unbearable is a Foreword INDIES Award-Winner — Gold Medal for Self-Help. 
    When a loved one dies, the pain of loss can feel unbearable—especially in the case of a traumatizing death that leaves us shouting, “NO!” with every fiber of our body. The process of grieving can feel wild and nonlinear—and often lasts for much longer than other people, the nonbereaved, tell us it should. 
    Organized into fifty-two short chapters, Bearing the Unbearable is a companion for life’s most difficult times, revealing how grief can open our hearts to connection, compassion, and the very essence of our shared humanity. Dr. Joanne Cacciatore—bereavement educator, researcher, Zen priest, and leading counselor in the field—accompanies us along the heartbreaking path of love, loss, and grief. Through moving stories of her encounters with grief over decades of supporting individuals, families, and communities—as well as her own experience with loss—Cacciatore opens a space to process, integrate, and deeply honor our grief. 
    Not just for the bereaved, Bearing the Unbearable will be required reading for grief counselors, therapists and social workers, clergy of all varieties, educators, academics, and medical professionals. Organized into fifty-two accessible and stand-alone chapters, this book is also perfect for being read aloud in support groups.
