Nine Ms and a Mother Like No Other: Our Journey from Messed to Blessed





In the memoir Nine Ms and a Mother Like No Other, Martial Bednar brings warmth, wit, and insight to this entertaining narrative about his family and their trials and triumphs as they survive a messy divorce, cross-country road trips in broken down jitneys, several siblings split into foster homes, and life-threatening medical experiences . . . and in the end, still consider themselves blessed. Told with candor and humor from the "kid brother's" unique perspective, Bednar begins with a colorful description of his mother Peggy-an heiress whose husband walked out after twenty years of marriage and nine children-who became a desperate housewife long before it was in vogue. As he chronicles his jaw-dropping childhood adventures, Bednar also introduces his siblings (the nine Ms) and shares the inspirational story of his brother Merrick, a priest-in-the-making whose profound health crises not only strengthen his own faith, but also the fabric of his entire family. This true story-often hysterical, at times heartbreaking-gives testimony to the inseparable bonds of family, the incredible power of perseverance and prayer, and the life-sustaining gifts of faith, hope, and love.

The Skilled Helper: A Problem Management and Opportunity Development Approach to Helping





Internationally recognized for its successful problem-management and opportunity development approach to effective helping, Egan's text emphasizes the collaborative nature of the therapist-client relationship and uses a practical, three-stage model that drives client problem-managing and opportunity-developing action. Egan masterfully leads readers step-by-step through the counseling process, while giving them a feeling for the complexity inherent in any helping relationship. As readers begin to understand the various steps of the helping model, they are able to improve their competence and confidence measurably. In this new eighth edition, Egan has built upon the strengths of the last edition in which he presented a "positive psychology", solution-focused theme by adding new discussions on evidence-based practice, research, and philosophical perspectives around how helpers know what they know.

Tell Me What You Want...

Sitting in her favorite coffee shop, Jane Ellingson realizes a frappucino can't fix a broken heart. She used to have a cool job, a best friend, and a fiancé--and she lost them all in one really bad day. Hey, can she have a do-over? How about a whole new life?

...What You Really, Really Want

But Jane is about to get a second chance when she finds a stone that comes with a wish. With nothing to lose, Jane figures she'll go for it--and suddenly she finds herself in Victorian England, meeting the dashing Curran Dempsey. Before long she's smitten--and completely unable to stay in her corset. In fact, she feels just like the heroine in a romance novel, madly in love with a man who's too fabulous to be real...and too sexy to give up.

In this incisive account, a prize-winning social scientist offers deep insights into the changing terrain of U.S. politics and public policy.
