Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. James R. Harris (Cover Design); Nebraska State Historical Society (Photo) (illustrator). 1st Ballantine Bks Ed Jan. 1988/1st Pr. 464 pp. Synopsis: This is the first in-depth biography of Willa Cather in thirty years, and the first ever that fully integrates her life and work. The author of such classics as Death Comes to the Archbishop and O Pioneers! was a complex, passionate and gifted woman trying to forge a new kind of identity for herself as a woman and artist before there were adequate models for this kind of self. 'Voice' is the metaphor Cather used to describe her attainment of literary identity and authority, a complex attainment for a woman writer who at first viewed femininity and creativity as incompatible. O'Brien asks two central questions: How did Cather pass through a stage of male identification when she adopted male dress and posed as 'William Cather' to become the first woman writer who created the first strong, autonomous and successful women heroes in American literature? How did she move from a literary apprenticeship she later associated with Jamesian imitation and inauthentic speech to a literary maturity in which she took 'the road home' to her Nebraska past? The book makes full use of biographical and literary materials that have been slighted in previous biographies: Cather's personal and professional correspondence, family letters and documents, photographs, and the early short stories as well as the major fiction. This is the first biography to deal openly and seriously with her lesbianism, exploring the importance of female friendships in her life and work and assessing the impact Cather's need to conceal her sexual identity had on the creative process. O'Brien draws in particular on new psychoanalytic theories that stress the importance of the mother-daughter bond to the formation of female identity. The book concentrates on Cather's childhood, adolescence, young womanhood and lengthy apprenticehsip, with references to later biographical and literary patterns which are used to illuminate the early years. This is a fascinating portrait of how someone becomes a writer. Nearly flawless copy with minimal external wear and solid binding. Clean text. Moderate foxing on page edges.

SYNOPSIS: Insights.words from the heart and mind: Discovery of self is a universal quest and a state of being that brings with it the power to experience the texture of life with greater intensity and sensitivity. All the resources for self-fulfillment are within us. We must only recognize their value and gradually harness them. Maturity is not a goal, but rather a process. Perhaps the fact of life most conducive to living fully as a person is an honest awareness and acceptance of death. Whatever immortality there is, is assured by a continual participation in the productive process. When we cling to pain we end up punishing ourselves. Childhood is a time for play, for experimentation, for fantasy, for exploration. Everything is curious. The mystery the child is searching for is itself. Dr. Leo Buscaglia, a native Californian, is Professor of Education at the University of Southern California. For many years he also taught a popular course entitle Love, from which originated his successful book of the same name. He is an inexhaustible traveler and has acquired a reputation as a much-loved and carefully listened-to lecturer in all parts of the world. Dr. Buscaglia is working on his own Personhood through his roles of educator, author, student, speaker and friend to all who meet him. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

Do you find yourself lonely even when you are in a relationship? Is there something wrong with every man who comes into your life? Do you always pick men who turn out to be unavailable in some way or another? Do you feel that your relationship would be great if only he would change? Would you like to make a good relationship better? If you can answer "yes" to any of the above questions, you're ready to learn how to have a more satisfying, fulfilling relationship--and Susan Jeffers can show you how. Opening Our Hearts to Men is a first of its kind. This refreshing and humane guide is a long overdue antidote to the many books about how difficult relationships with men are. It explains why men and women are experiencing such confusion in their relationships, and it tells you what to do about it. Dr. Jeffers believes that women are capable of making profound transformations in their thinking about men and about themselves. She believes that women have to stop playing the role of "poor me" and start building a new model for themselves, that of loving, creative, and powerful adults. With Dr. Jeffers' warm support and humor, you will learn how to build your own base of empowerment that will act as a magnet for a healthy kind of love. The methods she provides are beautifully simple and concrete, and can be put into action today: The four biggest barriers to love and how to break through them; A five-step program for dealing with anger; Insights into the depths of men's feelings; "Revisioning" exercises to create expectations that are guaranteed to be fulfilled; Affirmations for shifting destructive mindsets; The twelve steps to a "higher love". In Opening Our Hearts to Men, Dr. Jeffers offers each of us a unique challenge: to reclaim our power, put aside our anger, blame, and pain, and become lovers in the true sense of the word. Susan Jeffers received her doctorate in psychology from Columbia University. She is the dynamic founder of Fearbusters, a company which produces her audiotapes and other materials to help people overcome fears related to relationships, career, and everyday living. Dr. Jeffers has appeared on many national and local radio and television talk shows. She is a public speaker, workshop and seminar leader, and is the author of Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Fat, Skinny, and In-Between; Afterword; Supplemental Reading; Questionnaires; Index. SYNOPSIS: Diet/binge. Good food/bad food. Punishment/reward. These are the compulsive eater's nightmares, a longtime pattern of recrimination and guilt that ultimately leads to more overeating and more weight gain. Now, for the first time, here is a proven, step-by-step plan that doesn't control your eating habits--but cures them, once and for all. Overcoming Overeating shows you how to stop dieting and eat your way out of an eating problem--a startling but welcome message for the millions of people trapped by diets and tormented by an addictive relationship with food. Therapists Jane Hirschmann and Carol Munter have worked with thousands of people over the last two decades, and have had stunning successes: the 75 percent of clients who stick with the program end their compulsive eating and, in so doing, transform their lives. The authors will now show you how to: Give up dieting forever and discover that you actually eat much less without the pressure of restraints; Eat from true stomach hunger instead of "mouth" hunger--the emotional trigger that makes you turn to food even though you're not hungry; Enjoy the enormous satisfaction of meeting true hunger with the foods you most desire; Stop overeating and lose weight naturally; Move beyond your negative preoccupation with eating and weight towards a fuller, more satisfying life. Jane R. Hirschmann, M.S.W., and Carol H. Munter are psychotherapists in New York City. They are both on the faculty of the New School for Social Research. Ms. Hirschmann is Adjunct Clinical Professor at Hunter College School of Social Work and is the coauthor of Solving Your Child's Eating Problems, a book about children and eating. Ms. Munter started the first anti-dieting group for women with compulsive eating problems in 1970. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

SYNOPSIS: RELIEF FOR THE OVERBURDENED BRAIN All of us who work in the stressful, overspecialized way demanded by the new "Information Society" can experience bouts of diminished mental capacity--memory loss, sluggish thinking, or blocks when it comes to problem-solving. Now there's good news: these "symptoms" of overload are temporary and reversible, IF you're willing to train your mind back to its full potential. Just as exercise improves your body, making it more efficient, brain exercises can condition your mind to an optimum level of fitness, no matter what your age. Based on years of research at the celebrated French National Institute for Research on the Prevention of Cerebral Aging, Brain Fitness features a proven, tested program for revitalizing mental ability. Through a series of simple exercises--mental gymnastics--brain researcher Monique Le Poncin shows you how to get out of the habitual thought patterns that have become comfortable but are actually robbing you of certain abilities. The number games, illustrations, brain teasers, and optical illusions that make up the program will revive mental abilities that may have fallen into dormancy, or are working only in show motion, and bring them back to full efficiency in four weeks. You will find that you can accomplish tasks faster than you ever thought possible by learning to call on parts of your brain that you may not have used for years. And research has proven that this kind of mental exercise can actually reverse the effects of aging. Best of all, Brain Fitness teaches you how to incorporate the skills you've learned into your everyday life, giving you an extra advantage as you face the challenges of a rapidly changing world.
