These words, familiar to recovering people everywhere, describe the challenging realities we must face when we begin recovering from an addiction. And as life goes on there is a tremendous need for meaningful recovery support. Learning to deal with the different stages of growth and the new emotions that surface during the recovery process requires new living skills. Now all the pamphlets in the bestselling Hazelden Pocket Power series have been collected in this inspirational volume. Living Recovery provides an in-depth look at twenty-two tools for recovery, and offers pragmatic guidance in penetrating, yet easy-to-read reflections on: -- Accepting Criticism -- Forgiveness -- Freedom from Fear -- Gratitude -- Great Expectations -- Honesty -- Hope -- Humility -- Inadequacy -- Just for Today -- Letting Go -- Living the Principles -- Loneliness -- Loving Relationships -- Miracles in Recovery -- Patience -- Prayer and Meditation -- Reaching Out to Others -- Serenity -- Surrender -- Understanding Rejection -- When Doors Close So whether you're recovering from addiction or you live or work with someone who is, the principles of Twelve Step living outlined in this book can guarantee a richer, healthier life. One hundred percent of the net proceeds from the sales of the Random House edition of Hockney's Alphabet will go to the American Friends of AIDS Crisis Trust for AIDS research and services to people with AIDS. Sir Stephen Spender invited a number of distinguished writers in Britain and America to contribute original texts for an alphabet to be specially drawn by David Hockney, the proceeds of which would benefit AIDS research and services to people with AIDS. The result is this stunning volume of ABCs for grown-ups, a unique anthology of art and literature. Here are the letters of the alphabet, in David Hockney's inimitable style -- created in a variety of media, including collage and laser copier -- with brief accompanying texts by a dazzling array of world-class writers. Each was assigned to his or her letter by Stephen Spender, who himself contributed the Preface and a poem for the letter A. Those who love words will delight in the texts, which include, among others: -- Joyce Carol Oates on B, for birth, the "most profound" of all the Bs. -- Iris Murdoch on C, a "warm, comforting, friendly" letter. -- Paul Theroux on D, for death: "An endless night so awful to contemplate that it can make us love life and value it with such passion that it may be the ultimate cause of all joy and all art." -- Gore Vidal on E: "So very like a comb." -- Norman Mailer on F: "What a compliment you are paying me with that letter." -- Martin Amis on H, for homosexual: "It asks for courage. It demands courage." -- Erica Jong on I, a poem, "To the Letter I." -- Margaret Drabble on L, for laughter: "Do we not, in looking back on friendships, holidays, parties, good times, remember the laughter even when the jokes are forgotten?" -- Doris Lessing on P, for pumpkin: "One of the joys of autumn." -- Kazuo Ishiguro on T, for T-bone steak: "A dish renowned for its directness and simplicity." -- Julian Barnes on U, for unless: "The most sinister word in the English language." -- John Updike on V, for venereal, but also for victory. -- Susan Sontag on W, for weather. -- Anthony Burgess on X, a poem, "An Elegy for X." Along the way, there is a previously unpublished letter, donated to the project by Mrs. Valerie Eliot, from T. S. Eliot to a young, aspiring writer, and a short essay by Arthur Miller comparing contemporary prejudice against AIDS to the prejudice against tuberculosis he remembers from his childhood. "The world's Alphabets -- Alpha to Omega," says Stephen Spender in the Preface, "are drums and trumpets, clarion calls, State Funerals, Massed Choirs, Burial and Redemption." Hockney's Alphabet is all that, as well as an enchanting and thought-provoking gift book that will help end the AIDS crisis here and all over the world.

With a focus on gender-based research, this book offers a unique look at the perception of gender and the impact of gender biases and predispositions on the couple and the client-therapist relationship. The book offers essential theoretical coverage with an emphasis on application. An in-depth case study takes readers through specific phases of couples therapy, from the first interview through termination, and always through the "lens" of gender. The book's concrete guidelines for assessment and intervention--particularly regarding common impasses in the treatment process--is especially helpful in the examination of this growing and ever-changing field.

Cengage Learning'

Mark Worden's excellent revision is a step-by-step outline for learning family therapy that encourages counselors to translate theory into action. At its essence, it is a resource for learning the 'how to' of family therapy. Worden consistently links what students learn in their textbooks to what actually happens in real-life sessions--from the first interview through termination. Family Therapy Basics provides students with practical guidelines for conducting family interviews, emphasizes common clinical problems, and serves as a springboard for theoretical/clinical discussions. A single family-a mother and father, his teenage daughter from a previous marriage, and her two children-is followed through the entire treatment process. This developing narrative case history is enhanced by questions throughout that reveal why each step is taken. This case presentation provides a continuing focus for the discussion of clinical problems and their solutions, and further emphasizes the therapeutic choice points that occur during a therapy session. In so doing, a balance is struck between providing the reader with a conceptual understanding of the family treatment process and offering a variety of potential therapeutic interventions.

This text provides readers with the critical link between theory and practice illustrating how to actually "do" family therapy. It is a nuts-and-bolts primer that takes students step-by-step through the process of conducting family therapy sessions. The book starts with the initial session and finishes with the terminating session covering assessment, diagnosis, skills and techniques needed throughout each stage. The case of the Martin family, a blended family, is followed throughout the treatment process.
