Take My Date, Please!
After decades of being married, author Richard Wiener, now in his 60s, found himself on the journey to find that elusive perfect woman and last date. He went into this experience as a naive, hopeful guy who thought he'd find the right girl easily. That didn't happen. Instead, he had many dates that started out good but eventually went wrong ... really, really wrong ... Wiener figured that if he'd had these bad date experiences, then other people must've had them, too. Thus, the idea for this two-book series was born. Take My Date, Please!, the sequel to Check Please ... and Hurry!, chronicles these dating disasters. This man vs. woman tell-all details several peoples' disastrous dates and explores the rude and the ugly, as well as the rare prince or princess charming in the single world. The 300+ people interviewed for this book prove that no matter what age you are, whether you are white, black, Asian, European or an alien from another planet, bad dates happen to just about everyone.

Justice, Conflict and Wellbeing
Justice, conflict and wellbeing are large topics that occupy researchers from a variety of disciplines, as well as laypeople and policy makers. The three concepts are closely connected: conflict often (though not always) impairs wellbeing, whereas justice often (though not always) enhances it; perceived injustice is a common source of conflict, at multiple levels and calls for justice are a common response to conflict. In addition, each construct has subtypes, such as distributive and procedural justice, individual and group conflict and physical and psychological wellbeing. Although there are established traditions of research on the topics in multiple disciplines, there is little cross-fer...
Survivor's Odyssey
This book transports the reader to the very beginnings of the Nazi regime, as seen through the eyes of a young boy -- the only Jew in a school of Hitler Youths in a small medieval German town. It is his life journey -- his traumatic experience of Kristallnacht . . . the destruction of his home . . . separation from his parents . . . exile . . . post-war reconciliation with his ex-classmates . . . forgiveness . . . and ultimate grant of honorary citizenship -- that provides the reader with a rich, inspiring you-are-there experience seldom encountered in the Holocaust canon.

Emotion and the Law
From questions surrounding motives to the concept of crimes of passion, the intersection of emotional states and legal practice has long interested professionals as well as the public—recent cases involving extensive pretrial publicity, highly charged evidence, and instances of jury nullification continue to make the subject particularly timely. With these trends in mind, Emotion and the Law brings a rich tradition in social psychology into sharp forensic focus in a unique interdisciplinary volume. Emotion, mood and affective states, plus patterns of conduct that tend to arise from them in legal contexts, are analyzed in theoretical and practical terms, using real-life examples from crimin...
Handbook of Trial Consulting
This volume will be a handbook that treats trial consulting as applied psychology. The purpose of the volume will be to collect the viewpoints of leaders in the field of psychology and law who apply the discipline’s theoretical models, methods, and ethics to assist litigators to try cases in the most effective way possible. As a whole, the collection of chapters will describe the theory, business, and mechanics of trial consulting for those interested in learning and practicing the profession. However, it will do so from the perspective of organized theories of jury-decision making. In other words, the work of juror researchers will inform the recommendations and suggestions in the handboo...
Disability and Aging Discrimination
Two things are certain in the contemporary workplace: the aging of employees, and negative attitudes toward them - especially those with disabilities—by younger colleagues and supervisors. Yet related phenomena seem less clear: how do negative stereotypes contribute to discrimination on the job? And how are these stereotypes perceived in legal proceedings? Bringing theoretical organization to an often unfocused literature, Disability and Aging Discrimination offers research in these areas at the same level of rigor as research into racial and gender discrimination. The book applies Social Analytic Jurisprudence, a framework for testing legal assumptions regarding behavior, and identifies c...
