Even If it Costs Me My Life
Family constellations work has broadened and developed in many different fields as a method of counseling and therapy. In addition to constellations in organizations and schools, applying this approach to working with illness and disease has expanded the potential for healing effects in the field of medicine as well. A view of transgenerational entanglements and family dynamics casts a new light on health and disease, and the insights gained from constellations with illness and health problems have led to a more holistic view of those who are ill. In Even if it Costs me my Life, Stephan Hausner aims to provide a picture of the healing potential of systemic constellations, entering into the reciprocal effects of family dynamics and illness. Extensive use of case studies demonstrates this technique in action, revealing how existing illnesses and pathologies are rooted within the family dynamic, and setting up healing postures to facilitate growth, development, and direction.
Love and Murder on the Hill
When a young woman’s body is found on the shore of the Niagara River, she has the identical purple marks on her wrists and ankles as two other bodies recently discovered in the same area. With summer just around the corner and tourist season soon at its peak, local police detectives Charles Richmond and Sarah Child know they have to find a ruthless killer before he strikes again. Unfortunately, clues are sparse. Charles decides to put his neck on the line and enlist the help of Grace Bardo, the local fortune teller hoping she can provide some insight into the case.

Meanwhile, Grace and Charles are embroiled in a passionate and unexpected romance, but everything is about to be turned upside down when Charles’s partner, Sarah, suddenly disappears. Grace knows she has to do something. Against her new boyfriend’s wishes, Grace summons the help of two friends and a few colorful locals as she embarks on a dangerous journey to find a serial killer desperate for the taste of blood.
Getting Back to Love
When a man, either by hurting or pleasing his woman, tries to control her, he is a Mama's Boy who believes he gets his power from the women in his life. When a woman, either by serving or dominating her man, tries to take care of him, she is a Daddy's Girl who believes she will find fulfillment by taking care of the men in her life. Together, these personality types have great potential for passion and romance, but they're also vulnerable to relationship tragedy. Getting Back to Love teaches these unique people how to become masters of (rather than be mastered by) the Mama's Boy/Daddy's Girl dynamics that threaten to sabotage their relationships. Discover the steps to growing beyond the dysfunction into a relationship that has more love, better passion, and greater satisfaction!
Realist Criminology
In the 1980s in Britain a new school of critical criminology arose to challenge the political and philosophical idealism that characterized its critical predecessors, and to offer an alternative to the crime control policies of the 'New Right.' Arguing that by overemphasizing the crimes of the powerful, much of critical criminology had virtually ignored the impact of street crime on its victims, a 'left realism' emerged to reassert the centrality of the victim in the development of a progressive criminology. Critical realism recognizes the seriousness of street crime for those people victimized by it (particularly women), acknowledges that a consensus as to the desireability of a core group ...
Mature Women Students
First Published in 1993. At a time when more mature women are encouraged to enter higher education, this book investigates the effects that being a student has on women's family and social relationships. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, Mature Women Students draws on in-depth interviews with women of different ethnic backgrounds and social classes -all mothers and in long-term relationships with a man. The result is a comprehensive picture of the shifting patterns of the women's lives at various stages of social science degree-level study. This picture reveals, amongst other things, that the public and private spheres of education and family are not separate entities; they interact and impinge, with particular implications for the position of women within each sphere. This accessible and challenging book illuminates an important and growing issue in women's lives and in society.
