THE TRUTH ABOUT LYING. An award-winning book about how and why we lie, published by a small publisher who had financial difficulties so the author got back the rights. After an overview about lying through history, the author looks at the types of lies and the reasons people lie. The book includes stories of ordinary professional and business people discussing how and why they lied in various situations. It discusses how to tell when others lie, what to do about it, and has a "Lie-Q" test, so readers can learn how much they lie compared to others. Though published, the book can be updated and revised. Featured on Oprah Winfrey and Montel Williams. (Published book). FANTASY WORLD. Fantasies can be a way to create a world of adventure, as some groups do. Such fantasies range from participating in occasional games and fantasy parties to creating a fantasy lifestyle. This book describes a variety of such groups, which includes Civil War buffs, fans of the Renaissance, Art Deco enthusiasts, erotic fantasy lifestylers, and many others. (Proposal and chapters). WHEN THERAPISTS GO BAD. Therapists -- including psychiatrists, psychologists, and marriage and family counselors -- can harm clients when they abuse their power. Besides sexual abuse, they can exploit patients financially, emotionally, and in other ways. The book features examples of therapists who have crossed the line, and have lost their licenses, been sued, or charged with crimes. It suggests what readers can do to avoid such problems, offers warning signs to look for, and what to do if problems occur. (Proposal and chapters). For details: Creative Communications & Research |
