Great ideas to help if you are experiencing burnout
Ruth Luban has managed not only to describe professional burnout but also included 101 Ways to move from being a "human doing" to a "human being". The bibliography that she calls "Bibliotherapy" indexed by topic is worth the cost of the book itself.
Still as relevent today as when it was published.

No Kidding--It Saved My Life
I was feeling so morose and out of sorts a couple of years ago, when I happened on this book. I had no idea what was wrong with me, since I seemed to have both physical and mental symptons. The writer seemed to know exactly what was going on in my head. It was the affirmation I needed to know I wasn't going crazy, and it convinced my husband. We made some changes, and it literally changed and saved my life.

useful, timely, well-researched, skillfully written
This analysis of injustice in the world system is important from sociological and political perspectives, but also impacts the ways in which real people live and act in the world. The ideas advanced in this text are particularly relevant in light of recent events (such as the war in Kosovo and terrorism in east Africa), and will be increasingly important as the world enters the coming millennium.

This book is at the cutting edge of global studies.
This book is at the cutting edge of alternatives to global, corporate, business culture. It's a serious analysis of how and why people are put on the margins of life, especially people who would be at the center of a just world. The chapters include straightforward issues of justice, including research on the Zapatistas in Chiapas, jurisprudence in North American, freedom and autonomy in Africa, fairness in Latin America, terrorism in the Middle East and Italy, and a thoughtful mix of diverse approaches to scholarship.

Lisa Ann McCall
Until I started using Lisa Ann's excercises, I had knee pains, but her unique stretches relieved my pain while making me stronger.

No more pain!
I have suffered from lower-back pain for years, and more recently shoulder pain -- just the result of living a sendentary life at a computer screen for 20-something years. Traditional physical therapy has always let me down. In fact, there have been times I've actually felt it hurt. That's why I'm so lucky to have stumbled across this book. Finally, here is a way of using your body that makes sense! Lisa Ann McCall explains how we've lost touch with the way our bodies were meant to work -- and she gives you a simple, common-sense approach to getting back to healthy, pain-free movement. Her exercises are deceptively simple, and easy to do. No huffing, puffing or straining. The instructions are easy to follow, and the accompanying photos help, as well. I've been spending a few minutes a day over the past few weeks doing the various exercises, and I can't begin to express how much better I feel. How can this approach not be what all physical therapists will be doing in another 20 years?

The Standard Reference for Strategic/Military Statistics
The IISS have been publishing this annual for many years and it has become the
authoritative reference work for data on world armed forces*. It consists mainly of
comprehensive listings of the orders of battle of each nation's armed forces. Data includes
numbers, types of platforms, command and organisational sturctures. Commentary is also
provided for each of the major regions that the work is divided into i.e.the United States,
NATO-Europe, Non-NATO Europe, Asia, etc. These sections are chiefly concerned with
defence procurement issues.
For more in depth analysis of strategic and geopolitical issues one should look at the
companion annual Strategic Survey which is also published by the Institute.
*Jane's publish more detailed annuals separately for Navies, Air Forces etc but
The Military Balance is the best overview in a single volume.

Essential if needing information on specifics of militaries
While the price is high for such a small book, the information you get is well worth it. With this title you get all the information on units of the world's militaries, including defense budgets and where units are deployed. I did expect however that more information could be covered, such as for example they list bases and flight hours for some countries, but not all. This is well up to date, 4th quarter 2000. NOTE: I haven't seen any book as organized as this one - though I'm sure Jane's would have one, but probably for a few hundred to almost a thousdand dollars for it.

Not what I expected
I have always loved anything that the Mills sisters did and was a big fan of Nanny and the Professor (though I only saw it in reruns), but this book is the best! Julliet writes in a very easy conversational style and is not the least bit preachy. This is the first "new age/self help" book that I read, though to call it that is really doing it a disservice. It is a wonderful autobiography, cookbook, diet book, spiritual journey, love story and mediation all rolled into one. Includes many personal stories told with Julliet's own wonderful gentle humor. Highly recommended!

A Self Help book that doesn't read like one!
Juliet Mills is not only a talented actress, but now we find she is also a talented writer. In MIND, BODY & SOUL IN BALANCE, Juliet delves into various aspects of our lives, and offers suggestions, based on personal experience.

I'm not usually a fan of self help books. But I found MIND, BODY & SOUL IN BALANCE a refreshing change of pace. Juliet doesn't "tell us" how to live. She merely gives us a variety of alternatives for bettering ourselves overall, with a straighforward approach.

She also includes some delicious recipes, and a look into her own life.

There's also an interview with Juliet in the 2000-2001 Romance Calendar & Romance Companion available here at Amazon, published by The Romance Club.

A Most Appropriate Prescription
In his other books, Margin and The Overload Syndrome, Richard Swenson, MD, has written masterfully on the causes, symptoms and treatment of the overload epidemic raging among the vast majority of North Americans, who chronically exceed their God-given limits.

In this volume Dr. Swenson matches his medicine to the ailment in 180 short daily readings--a dosage well-suited to the busiest of lives.

This consistent prescription squarely addresses the ailments of overload, guiding and strengthening readers to aggressively combat the poisons of our culture rather than passively succumbing to them. A must read!

A minute a day, read the doctor and pray!
From his thoughts on the sovereignty of God in "More Than Meets the Eye," to the very practical and personal prescriptions for reducing stress and building some breathing room into our days in "Margin" and "Overload," to his assertions of overload gone global in "Hurtling Toward Oblivion", Dr. Swenson has compiled the best of the best for the reader to digest one day at a time. You'll find this book approachable and insightful, and it's author a gentle and exemplary Christian man using his remarkable mind to help us all gain more time for the things that matter, develop peace of mind in a world gone nuts, and ultimately, to "seek authenticity at the highest level."

Superbly written & spiritually enriching
Bliss stands for "Balance, Love, Integrity, Sexuality, Soul". In The Nature Of Bliss, a self-help book by business woman, community activist, and motivational speaker Maureen Moss that deftly takes the reader on a metaphysical journey to their own personal harmony. A superbly written, spiritually enriching, "reader friendly" volume, The Nature Of Bliss is enthusiastically recommended reading for readers of all faiths who are searching for their own inner self realization.

Life Changing Views on Living a Fuller Life
Maureen describes the wonderful balance on the "seesaw of life" that can be achieved through the blending of love, integrity, sexuality, and soul. Her examples from her own life experiences help to connect the content of this book to the real business of living life to the fullest. The "Inner Exploration" exercises throughout the book help to anchor the principles of this message by providing a road map for coming back to your own authentic nature of bliss. A wonderful text that could be augmented with a workbook to coordinate the learning described throughout the book. Maureen has been guided to share her awareness that love is a spiritual act that commits us to a way of behaving in everyday life that recognizes the interconnectedness of us all. A wonderful guide for living a balanced life of integrity and love.

Good for offspring of high pressure parents
I am not a parent, but I related to many of the children's stories in this excellent book. I went to competitive schools, where many students struggled with eating disorders and substance abuse. We were expected to apply and to attend Ivy League colleges. This book very much helped me understand the origins of this culture of success by any means necessary. I also gained a deeper insight into why I hold certain values and this book, which is well written and so very witty, empowered me to re-examine those values and to see if they were really mine or in fact if they were someone else's.

Alternatives supported by case studies of real kids
There's been much publicity about parents who push their children to achieve beyond their abilities and years: so how can parents avoid suffocating children, yet encourage them to do their best? With No More Push Parenting, parents receive a guide filled with insights on how to encourage their kids to measure up, without pushing too hard. Dr. Guthrie provides alternatives supported by case studies of real kids; some of whom are achieving, others are not.
