Summary of Sally Palaian's Spent
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When Eric arrived at my office, he was furious. His wife, Susan, had spent years staving off this dreaded day. She had to either stop spending or lose her marriage. She had spent years blowing up and refusing to discuss money during premarital counseling with the priest. #2 Susan was lucky that her husband challenged her to change. She turned to the practical and psychological tools outlined in this book, and in therapy she learned how to survive without credit cards. #3 The advertisements that companies run on television and in magazines are some of the most sophisticated and effective marketing campaigns around. They first remind you of your human fallibility and personal insecurities, and then promise you redemption from those feelings with their products. #4 The modern culture is accustomed to using credit. It is easy to get credit, and credit allows you to buy whatever your credit limit will allow. This system leads to overconsumption, which is the consumption of more than you need.

Bicycle Love
“This compilation of tales conforms to a simple Freudian fact: You're as crazy as you thought, but in good company.” —Bicycling Magazine Okay, so some of us might be a bit too attached to our bicycles. Outsiders may say this is “inappropriate” or “unnatural.” But most cyclists will agree that passionate, all-consuming bicycle love is a fine and glorious thing. Bicycles take us places, physically and metaphysically, we cannot go without them. They move us; they make us dizzy and giddy, exhilarated and exhausted. All athletes love their sport, but cycling has a fetishistic side to it—the love of this deceptively simple machine that allows you to silently float, race, climb, gli...
Women with Attention Deficit Disorder
Women with Attention Deficit Disorder, psychotherapist Sari Solden's, groundbreaking book, explains how every year, millions of withdrawn little girls and chronically overwhelmed women go undiagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder because they don't fit the stereotypical profile: they're not fast-talking, hyperactive, or inattentive, and they are not male. This pioneering book explores treatment and counseling options, and uses real-life case histories to examine the special challenges women with AD/HD face, such as the shame of not fulfilling societal expectations. Solden explains that AD/HD affects just as many women as men, and often results in depression, disorganization, anxiety, and u...
