The inhabitants of our alienated modern society--and those suffering globally from its negative influences--are desperate for meaning. Self-Help books abound beyond belief.

Have you ever come in from the garden on one of those balmy days when the sun is "just right" neither too hot nor too cold, but warm enough to draw the aroma from your flowers, and thought to yourself, "I would love to preserve that smell for a rainy day."

Crossing Jordan is a book that will make it cry. It shows you that it doesn't matter how you look, anyone can be your friend. To all the people who dislike people who aren't your skin color, read Crossing Jordan and I know you'll change your mind. -Kayla Parker (11) Tallahassee, FL             Crossing the Unknown Sea27 reviews David Whyte Riverhead Trade, 2002 A practical, beautiful, insightful and soul-stretching work of art. I don't often pick up books that threaten to be more touchy-feely than substantive, as the title of this book and its first few pages implied to me. But I read it upon the advice of a friend. David Whyte has one foot firmly planted in the practical with the other firmly planted in the spiritural and, by the end of the book, you have an idea about how you might achieve a similar posture. One ...             Arctic Crossing : A Journey Through the Northwest Passage and Inuit Culture29 reviews Jonathan Waterman Random House of Canada, Limited, 2001 Articulate Adventurer Who was it who said, "less is more"? That's one truth that stands out in Jonathan Waterman's "Artic Crossing" - a epical solo trip of the Northwest Passage done without fanfare, without oodles of sponsorship dough. I liked the author's cool, understated writing style, the wry observations about his sufferings and about the Inuits. No hyperbole, none of self-inflation that is so common in ...             Dead in Their Tracks: Crossing America's Desert Borderlands36 reviews John Annerino Basic Books, 1999 Walk the Line in this New World -"Photojournalist John Annerino plunges into a world few Americans ever consider, much less confront: a pitiless trek through the southwestern Arizona Desert that can deliver a man to steady work - or to a whimpering death," Laura Brooks, The Arizona Daily Star. -"Anyone interested in this slaughter should run, not walk, to John Annerino's Dead in Their Tracks," Charles Bowden, author of Down ...             Crossing Jhordan's River22 reviews Lift Every Voice, 2005 Forgiveness is the rule, not the exception Anything worth having is worth fighting for, but how hard is it supposed to be? Kelli Adams knew that marrying Jhordan, the love of her life, wouldn't always be perfect, but she never expected to be completely rejected after less than a year of marriage. Surely, a wife could expect love and affection from her husband on the regular. Crossing Jhordan's River is more than Christian fiction, or ...             Hiss and Tell: True Stories from the Files of a Cat Shrink19 reviews Pam Johnson-Bennett Crossing Pr, 1996 Laughed and cried I had the best experience while reading this book - a purring cat curled up in my lap. I laughed at some of these stories, cried at others (especially the one about Angel). The book also reinforced for me how important it is to have interactive play sessions with your cat each day.             Secrets of a Jewish Baker: Authentic Jewish Rye and Other Breads22 reviews George Greenstein Crossing Press, 1993 The next best thing to having a master baker in your kitchen I've had this book for over 8 years and simply put, this is the one bread book all bakers should have in their homes.

When you think of an east coast university professor who specializes in the humanities--Shakespearean literature, in this case--you probably won't be visualizing someone who started adulthood by engaging in vicious aerial gunnery duels with Japanese fighters and otherwise living the stressful, profane, hazardous life of an enlisted sailor on three World War II aircraft carriers, one of which ...             Crossing 1317 reviews Carrie Stark Hugus Affirm Publications, 2008 Crossing 13 This gripping account placed me inside the author's memory to experience the first hand account of her father's last day and its aftermath.

I've always had more of a 'thing' for the playing card deck than the tarot. Playing cards always sat better with my spirit; though I often just wondered if it was the size of the tarot deck that just didn't fit comfortably enough in my small hands. Then I came across this book. Sharon Jeffers so perfectly explained why the cards are such an important piece of our society as well as a divination ...             Crossing the BLVD: Strangers, Neighbors, Aliens in a New America12 reviews Warren Lehrer, Judith Sloan W. W. Norton & Company, 2003 Great to understand the lives of others... ...this book resonated with my lifestyle because I'm also a foreigner who settled in this country over fifteen years ago. I loved these stories and it's a good read for anyone to understand what is behind the person next door, the shop owner down the street, or the student sitting next to you. It reminds you that we all have stories and we need to be careful about judging those we don't ...             The Supernova Advisor: Crossing The Invisible Bridge to Exceptional Client Service and Consistent Growth12 reviews Rob Knapp Wiley, 2007 Contact is Not Discipline - It's Ritual When Rob Knapp writes about contact not being a discipline, but a ritual, with reference made to Jim Loehr, he is from my perspective, discussing the most useful tool one can deploy in taking oneself to a higher level of performance. Given the foregoing, in my view, this is a must read book, for anyone focused, competitive and driven.             Chakras and Their Archetypes: Uniting Energy Awareness and Spiritual Growth14 reviews Ambika Wauters Crossing Press, 1997 healers mental handbook This book has become a handbook in my practice of Life Coaching using the modality of Rapid Eye Technology. It is amazing how the author clearly explains the mind states of each archetype and how to get into balance. Connecting these archetypes to a chakra is genius.
