Cognitive-Behavioral Play Therapy
Cognitive-Behavioral Play Therapy (CBPT) incorporates cognitive and behavioral interventions within a play therapy paradigm.

Thus, play as well as verbal and nonverbal approaches are used in resolving problems. CBPT differs from nondirective play therapy, which avoids any direct discussion of the child's difficulties. A specific problem-solving approach is utilized, which helps the child develop more adaptive thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral therapies are based on the premise that cognitions determine how people feel and act, and that faulty cognit...
Bunco Babes Tell All
A hot, sassy, Southern romance about girlfriends, gossip, the game of love- and the game of Bunco. Woman cannot live by Bunco alone . Meet the Bunco Babes of Whispering Bay. Every Thursday night they roll dice, drink frozen margaritas, and catch up on all the gossip in their small north Florida town. Kitty Burke is the only Bunco Babe who is still single-which is okay-but she's thirty-five and may need to face the fact that her image of Mr. Right is all wrong. Take Steve. Very sexy-but on paper, with three failed marriages and a shady career, maybe not great husband material. And yes, his ring tone is "Freebird." Fellow Babes Shea and Pilar definitely vote thumbs down. But maybe there's more to Steve than meets the eye. Is it time for Kitty to roll the dice and hope that she can be as lucky in love as she is in Bunco?

That Man of Mine
When Mimi Grant becomes mayor of Whispering Bay, she gets a whole lot more than she bargained for. Her biggest concern? The city's annual festival is in financial ruin and the former housewife doesn't have a clue how to fix things. But, she's determined to bring the sleepy beachside town into the twenty-first century. Hunky Police Chief Zeke Grant isn't happy that his estranged wife Mimi has just become his boss. But for the town's sake, he's willing to swallow his pride and let her order him around-to a point. Everything aside, he doesn't count on someone from his past coming back to haunt him, forcing him to reevaluate what's really important. While Mimi and Zeke continue to butt heads on how to get things done, there's one thing they can't help but agree on: their chemistry is hotter than ever. However, when a robbery threatens to derail the annual festival, some of the town's residents question Mimi and Zeke's ability to keep Whispering Bay safe-as well as keep their war-torn personal life out of civic business. Mimi and Zeke must team up to solve the crime, and decide once and for all if it's time to move forward with separate lives, or if true love really does conquer all.

Window on the East
Robert Geraci presents an exceptionally original account of both the politics and the lived experience of diversity in a society whose ethnic complexity has long been downplayed. For centuries, Russians have defined their country as both a multinational empire and a homogeneous nation-state in the making, and have alternately embraced and repudiated the East or Asia as fundamental to Russia's identity. The author argues that the city of Kazan, in the middle Volga region, was the chief nineteenth-century site for mediating this troubled and paradoxical relationship with the East, much as St. Petersburg had served as Russia's window on Europe a century earlier. He shows how Russians sought thr...
