books by Charles Whitfield     books:       Nicholas Nickleby part 1 of 235 reviews Charles Dickens, Robert Whitfield Blackstone Audiobooks, 2001 A Very Funny Dickens Novel This is a very funny novel in some sections. Imagine an older Oliver Twist, about 19 or 20 or so, but handsome, and with a temper, and with a strong outgoing personality, and one who can act and do all kinds of things. He has lots of self confidence and a beautiful sister, and throw in an obnoxious and rich uncle and a dotty mother. Yes, it is very, very entertaining. I bought the Wordsworth ...             My Recovery: A Personal Plan for Healing1 review Charles Whitfield HCI, 2003 A big help for me This gave me a clear overview of the steps to my healing and was more complete and authoratative than most books on healing. Understandable to the layperson, and I believe it is must reading for clinicians.             Little Dorit, Part 2 of 219 reviews Charles Dickens Blackstone Audiobooks, 1999 Worth a Journey Among the reasons to come to earth must surely be the chance to read this novel. Shaw called this novel a masterpiece among masterpieces. My opinion is that this novel is the greatest of the sixteen. It is less bland than Bleak House, more poignant than Copperfield. I started it desultorily, distracted greatly by events in my life. But gradually as I read it dawned on me that sentence by sentence ...             The Truth About Mental Illness: Choices for Healing5 reviews HCI, 2004 Eye-opening Expose' I was unable to put this book down; finished it in five sittings. This should be mandatory reading for all teachers, therapists and medical professionals, and students in these fields. While the media, the industry and classroom messages insist we are suffering from biochemically-induced mental illness, Dr. Whitfield has pulled together overwhelming research indicating that it was our childhood ...             The Power of Humility: Choosing Peace over Conflict in Relationships7 reviews Charles Whitfield, Barbara Whitfield, ... HCI, 2006 Get's Us Back To Source The Power of Humility truly reminds us of the power we can attain when we let go and surrender. Clearly describing the stages we go through as we progress spiritually, much was brought into focus and defined. With examples of personal stories and a spectacular explanation of "Spiritual Bypass," I now know more than ever before what we need to do to become closer to Source. This book is a favorite.             Alcoholism and Spirituality: Stress Management and Serenity During Recovery1 review Charles L. Whitfield Thomas W. Perrin, 1985 An outstanding integration of spiritual values for recovery. I first read this book in a typewritten, soft-bound compilation, and I still have the copy on my "frequently accessed" bookshelf. Although I have never met Dr. Whitfield, I feel as if I know him from this book, and as a result, I have held him in the highest esteem. I believe he is one of the first writers in the recovery field to bring a cogent, systematic transpersonal psychological ...             Our Mutual Friend (Part 1)49 reviews Charles Dickens, Robert Whitfield Blackstone Audiobooks, 1999 Filth and the Filthy Rich The filth upon which wealth and pomp can be constructed is a central image in this, Dickens's deepest and darkest novel. The tale revolves around an inheritance based on London's trash. The River Thames - a central personage in the novel - is a moody muddy cloaca of murders and misanthropy. Yes, there are love interests, tra la, and love does triumph, though the victory seems shadowed by the ...             The Water Babies20 reviews Charles Kingsley Blackstone Audiobooks, 1998 New unabridged edition forthcoming I would like to point out that in 2008 Broadview Press will publish my unabridged edition of The Water-Babies with the original illustrations by Linley Sambourne. There will be a substantial introduction to the work as well as works by Lewis Carroll, Kingsley himself, and other contemporary writers that help place Kingsley's work in context. ...             Healing The Child Within42 reviews Charles L. M.D. Whitfield Health Communications, 1987 If you really want to uncover some thruths about yourself, I suggest you read this book. I often felt isolated and "different", not knowing why. Just reading through this book uncovered and healed much of my pain that I denied having for so long. This book has been a gift to me, helping me to understand myself and others much more, which is what I always really wanted. I felt so stuck, and this book along with a few other materials was a real ...             Bleak House (Part 1)74 reviews Charles Dickens Blackstone Audiobooks, 1999 A Masterpiece or Simply Too Long and Wanders Too Much? The Introduction by Bradbury in the Penguin version, which I would suggest not looking at until you read the novel, agrees with my point: the novel lacks focus and wanders with too many sub-plots. Bradbury calls it "competing plots." So, that point of view is not my imagination nor a unique perspective on Bleak House. This is a very slow moving 1000 page novel which is unlike any of Dickens's ...             Co-Dependence - Healing the Human Condition: Healing the Human Condition5 reviews Charles L. Whitfield HCI, 1991 shake up your your personal paradign By the tiume you get to page 109 you will be depressed. The author so clearly explains how the wounding process takes place and what it's effects are. Although you should get angry and avoid most people from your family for a while. Eventually it is tremendously liberating and is a guide leading us off the path that other people have dictated to us. Shows us how to find our True self. That ...             What Did You Say?: The Art of Giving and Receiving Feedback5 reviews Charles N. Seashore, Edith Whitfield Seashore, ... Bingham House Books, 1997 Practical Psychology in One Lesson: "What Did You Say..." If I had the power to transport one book back in time and send it to myself, this would be the one. This is the book I needed when I became a people manager. It's also the book I needed when I began to raise my kids. In fact, I can't think of a time in my life when I did not wish I had more of the skills this book teaches. A simple but very deep book that causes a new level of understanding about ...             Barnaby Rudge22 reviews Dickens, Charles Blackstone Audiobooks, Inc., 2008 Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant Having left Dickens until later in life, I just completed Barnaby Rudge as part of my attempt to go through his novels in chronological order, starting with Pickwick. Barnaby Rudge is a very different animal from the 4 prior novels, patterned after it was on the swashbuckling historical style of Scott. It's so different from Old Curiosity Shop, which he was writing at the same time as Barnaby ...             A Gift to Myself: A Personal Workbook and Guide to "Healing the Child Within"10 reviews Charles L. Whitfield HCI, 1990 Must Have With Companion Book This simple workbook takes 3-5 years to work through in order to arrive at a point where one will recognize who they truly are in the big and little picture called life. Absolutely required if one seriously is on a journey of discovery and is prepared to take steps to wholeness. This workbook will not make much sense unless using it in conjunction with the parent book Healing the Child Within.             Memory and Abuse: Remembering and Healing the Effects of Trauma8 reviews Charles Whitfield HCI, 1995 False Self/True Self I picked up this book with a keen curiosity, as it came to discuss about the difference between the ordinary memory and the traumatic memory, the causes, and how one can heal those traumatic memories. Whitfield also addresses the issues of the "false memory" syndrome and the claims of FMSF, which was the highlight during the early 1990s, which, by the way, I had never heard of. On another ...             The Truth About Depression: Choices for Healing13 reviews Charles Whitfield HCI, 2003 A must-read I've read more than dozen books this year on depression and related subjects, and this one is a real eye-opener. Dr. Whitfield pulls together hundreds of research studies examining depression and he finds the same patterns he saw in his own practice, namely that childhood trauma is a huge factor. The book goes on to provide extensive medical evidence explaining the specific ways in which trauma ...             Misinformation Concerning Child Sexual Abuse and Adult Survivors2 reviews Routledge, 2002 misinformation leads to continued victimization Oftentimes, lay people as well as professionals respond to perceptions of child sexual abuse that have no basis in fact. The impact of sexual abuse does not always follow a straight and logical path. However, research in the field of child sexual abuse clearly indicates that it has long-term negative consequences for which its victims and their families are not prepared. Narrowly focused ...             Boundaries and Relationships: Knowing, Protecting and Enjoying the Self15 reviews Charles Whitfield HCI, 1994 As it is said, `An oldie, but a goodie'. Never out of date. A work of art and understanding for any millennia. Not being a formal scholar... nevertheless, schooled from the street of hard knocks to the sophistication of group studies and classes with BA's, MA's, PhD's and a few 'Doc's' and in venues from business to religion, I had never heard of 'Boundaries'... of any kind by the time this book reached me. I picked this book of the shelf of a personal ...              search for books alcoholism, boundaries, choices, choosing, co-dependence, concerning, condition, conflict, dependence, depression, effects, enjoying, feedback, healing, humility, knowing, management, misinformation, nicholas, nickleby, personal, protecting, receiving, recovery, relationships, remembering, serenity, spirituality, survivors, workbook books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
