Madam Pantaloons
Marie Suize was a French immigrant who made a fortune as a miner in the California Gold Rush of 1848. In order to work effectively at the mines, she wore men's clothing - for which she was arrested three times. She embraced her nickname of Marie Pantalon (meaning trousers) and even signed legal documents with that name. She later grew grapes on her ranch and became the most prolific vintner in the Jackson area, opening wine shops in both San Francisco and Virginia City, Nevada. Although she later lost her fortune gambling with investments in Nevada's Comstock Lode, she lived her life the way she wanted to - free and unencumbered by the expectations of her gender.

The Butcher of Souls
Ben French was an idler, a slacker, a lazy good for nothing all his days on earth. When his life ended and he was assigned to a job in the nether world, he wasn't too worried; he'd always found a way to avoid expending any effort and he'd do it now, too. He quickly found, though, that he couldn't avoid his duties. He was stuck for all eternity in the miserable, soul-crushing role of usher, pitchforking the remains of other lost souls into the blast furnace of forever, into the gaping maw of oblivion. The demands were unceasing and he badly needed a way out. Fortunately, he discovered an escape clause. Ben could rid himself of his obligations and make his days more comfortable if he somehow found a replacement. The Butcher of Souls chronicles Ben's search not only for a replacement but also for a return to his former existence, one of comfort and ease, of modest indulgences and everlasting peace.

Empathic Attunement
Empathic Attunement captures the essence of Kohut's contributions to self psychology and the mental health field. Straightforward, accurate, and practical, the authors introduce student and experienced clinician alike to the synthesis of Kohut's major concepts and their clinical applications. The authors highlight Kohut's emphasis on the empathic mode of data gathering from within the patient's experiences. Kohut considers empathy—the capacity to think and feel oneself into the inner life of another person—to be the major tool of therapy.
Depression
Depression: The Way Out of Your Prison gives us a way of understanding our depression which matches our experience and which enables us to take charge of our life and change it. Dorothy Rowe shows us that depression is not an illness or a mental disorder but a defence against pain and fear, which we can use whenever we suffer a disaster and discover that our life is not what we thought it was. Depression is an unwanted consequence of how we see ourselves and the world. By understanding how we have interpreted events in our life we can choose to change our interpretations and thus create for ourselves a happier, more fulfilling life. Depression: The Way Out of Your Prison is for depressed people, their family and friends, and for all professionals and non-professionals who work with depressed people.
