Life Changing Events
A collection of interviews conducted by a former soldier who himself experienced life-changing events in Vietnam. Forty-five stories feature individuals who recount the aftermath of life changing events in their lives. They tell how these changes affected them, and what the results have been. Issues addressed are losses, abuse, inner and/or outer woundings, or other events, negative and positive. The honest and inspirational compilation looks at pathways people have traveled as they ask, "Since the eventful turning point, who am I now?" A Paradox that comes through the stories is, where the individuals experienced negative life changing events, they were able to discover and embrace the positives that were direct consequences of the initial event. As Basil B. Clark wrote in his book War Wounded: Let the Healing Begin, "In our diversity of experiences we find just how much we have in common."

Making Sense of Political Ideology
Making Sense of Political Ideology explores the erosion of ties among ideology, language, and political action. Analyzing political language strategies, it shows how to dissect language so we can better understand a speaker's ideology.

They emphasize the dangers of staying trapped in political gridlock with no consensus for governmental direction and propose that the ability to identify and bridge positions can help political communicators toward constructing coalitions and building support for political action.
Adrenergic Activators and Inhibitors
Not much more than a decade has passed since the appearance of the outstanding handbook, Catecholamines, edited by BLASCHKO and MUSCHOLL, in the series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology. However, this extremely well organized volume dealt mainly with the origin, molecular actions, and fate of the naturally occuring catecholamines. It was felt that a separate volume should be dedicated to the remarkable and exciting progress made in the field of agents influencing the adrenergic system, both in physiologic and pharmacologic respect. The editor of the present volume considers himself lucky to have been able to persuade a number of eminent specialists to collaborate. The main concept of th...
Humanistic Critique of Education
Humanistic Critique of Education’s ten essays by noted scholars address the subject of educational policy, methods, ideology and more, with stress upon the rhetoric of contemporary teaching and learning. Humanistic Critique of Education focuses on education as symbolic action, as the foundation of discovery and, thus, as “equipment for living” in Kenneth Burke’s terms. These essays will spark dialogue about improving education in democratic societies through the lens of humanism.
Barabbas Son of a Father
A fictional account of Barabbas, a lesser known Biblical character. All that is known about him is that he was an insurrectionist condemned by the Romans to die, until his path intersected with that of Jesus Christ. Barabbas was set free as Jesus was crucified in his place. Why, of all the persons born into the world, was his life the one to intersect with the life of Jesus on such a day, in such a given way?
A Genealogy of the Reyniersen Family
"Arent Theunisen Van Hengel, with his wife, Tryntie Reynders, and three children, Reynier, Mary, and Hendrick, came from Hengel in the county of Zutphen (now in Gelderland), Holland, in 1653, and settled on Staten Island [New York]. It is probable that he was killed during the Indian uprising on Staten Island"--Page 27
