absolutely terrific
I think we could usefully back away from the word "abuse" in a lot of instances....let us just say that parents do a LOT of things that injure their children on emotional and even deeper levels, injuries that continue to cause pain and dysfunction all their lives unless the children can figure out how to repair the damage. Setting aside the overuse of the A-word, this book does four ...
Reclaiming Childhood: Letting Children Be Children in Our Achievement-Oriented Society

Returning childhood to the kids
One of the great strengths of this book is that it reminds the reader of what it really was like to be a child: how imaginative, artistic, and connected to nature kids are naturally. It's hard for me to remember now, but there was a time when my favorite activity was hanging out in the backyard and just looking at leaves and under rocks, sitting quietly, and thinking things over. I could do this ...
The Wisdom Way of Knowing: Reclaiming An Ancient Tradition to Awaken the Heart

Freedom and Surrender
I have read Cynthia Bourgeault's THE WISDOM WAY OF KNOWING five times now. From start to finish, I find what I always find in her writing - the rich, inner tradition of Christianity which is so universally appealing. I have probably read her chapter on Freedom and Surrender ten times, and I quote my favorite lines, "Spirituality at its no-frills simplest is learning not to do anything in a ...

The Best Book Written on Women's Desire Problems
Reclaiming Desire is a gift to women who have lost their libido. Doctors Goldstein and Brandon have created a beautifully-written, comprehensive, empowering and compassionate book, and one I recommend wholeheartedly to my patients. It deals with women's low sexual desire in unusual depth, and in a remarkably balanced way---encompassing the physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual ...
Reclaiming Female Agency: Feminist Art History after Postmodernism
1 review
University of California Press
, 2005
Excellent academic text
I got a good sense of feminism, the history of feminist theory, and the history of art from reading this text. I will never see art history the same way. Spans a range of dates, media, artists and critics. I am an artist, not a theorist, but this book was accessible enough for me to use it to better understand my place in contemporary art practice. The extensive notes can lead you to other ...
Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy

Vincent Bugliosi
W. W. Norton
, 2007
Outstanding and uncompromising...
Vincent Bugliosi is arguably one of the brightest legal minds this country has ever seen. What more can be said for twenty years of research, trying Oswald after the fact and obtaining a conviction, and an eye for the smallest detail that establishes this book as the final word on the JFK assassination. His analysis of the facts, from every conceivable angle, and laying out all the conspiracy ...
Reclaiming Youth at Risk: Our Hope for the Future

I had my doubts...
I just finished reading Reclaiming Youth at Risk. I had my doubts at first. It uses Native American child-raising philosophy in helping create redeeming environments for our youth today. It has caused me to have a much deeper respect for the native american people as well. A quote from poet Edwin Markham: He drew a circle to shut me out. Heretic, rebel a thing to flout. But ...

Reclaiming Conservatism: How a Great American Political Movement Got Lost--And How It Can Find Its Way Back

Mickey Edwards

, 2008
Agree
I totally agree and cannot add more to the reviews already here. The Republican Party up until about 1990 was a party of optimism ("It's Morning in America"), belief in individual freedom, anti-communism, and belief in a strong national defense, and "getting government off our backs". Today: a party fixated on tradition and "traditional family values", moralizing, forcing one's personal ...

Excellent Manual
As a Northern Ireland cognitive behaviour psychotherapist who deals with the effects of trauma weekly I, and those patients who have shared the manual have found it very beneficial. The manual is ideal as a stand alone treatment manual if fear is the primary emotion - however if guilt, shame or disgust are present then additional interventions are required. As a lecturer in CBT I have also ...

Deep, Painful Tilling in the Rugged Soil of Our Pasts ...
Homecoming: Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child I cannot think of another published work that deals effectively with healing the wounded inner child, like this book. Methodical and delibrate, Bradshaw explores territory unknown to our present conscious, but quite familiar to our subconscious. The earliest of memories, whether peripheral, non-descript "gut" feelings or vivid, clear, ...

Must Read
In a time of "Church Growth" gurus, books, and workshops - it is very refreshing to have a book that doesn't focus on bells and whistles and technological ways to manipulate, but calls the church back to the mission given by Christ - to go into the world with the transformative Christian faith. If only those of us in mainline denominations would be willing to lift our eyes off of agendas, useless ...
Reclaiming the Fire: How Successful People Overcome Burnout
15 reviews
Steven Berglas
Random House
, 2001
Excellent Resource for the Fried and Crabby
I'm very glad that I bought this book because it has been very helpful to me and I look back at my copy often. I have not solved all of my particular burnout problems yet (no fault of the book's) but it helped me to identify my misery and malaise, how I got so deep into it (trying to please, trying to prove to my parents and myself that I'm worthy of living) and identifying the problems alone ...
Reclaiming the Urban Family

Willie Richardson
Zondervan
, 1996
Excellent book for Christian families
This book is superb! It gives great advice for the modern urban family, and does it in a down-to-earth, easy-to-understand way. The theme is serious, but the author provides information while providing a few jokes along the way. And just because it is easy to understand does not mean it lacks content. On the contrary, this book provides complete Christian guidelines on everything from dating ...

It can take years, even a lifetime, to heal from emotional abuse. The author, Beverly Engel, lets us know within the first pages that she has endured a history of abuse, and from this background, she has made her career choices, mainly, to become a therapist helping others in similar circumstances.

Ecclesiastical History with a Scope: This is the first in a two-volume 'inclusive church history', that pays special attention to Christianity in the neglected hemisphere, Eastern Orthodoxy, the church among minority cultures in North America, and the role of women in church history.

Reclaiming the Sky: 9/11 and the Untold Story of the Men and Women Who Kept America Flying

9/11 - an honest perspective
What strikes me most about this book is the honesty, time and care taken by the author in ensuring that the story told is true to the maturing experiences of those involved. I am sure that it would have been relatively easy for Mr. Murphy to rush a book out, given his proximity to the people and events of that terrible day. But he didn't do that. This approach must have required great patience ...

Brazos Press
, 2006
spiritual context for medical decisions
This book offers a thoughtful review of how Christianity and medicine interact. Shuman and Volck do not lose sight of our status as created beings who generally want to please our creator, but due to our very clever abilities make that hard sometimes. The anecdotes get to the heart of many difficult problems. Probably best read before one faces a life-or-death medical decision--when the crunch ...
