Book excerpt: It's just another day in the life of Gary, an elementary school child who's overweight and constantly picked on. Living with his old-fashioned Grandfather, it's no surprise that he doesn't get along with him, especially after he becomes one with the living dead. This screams two words for Gary, "Road Trip " Spending quality time on the road together, they search for answers with their brand-new friend, a Frankenstein creature named "Nazm." Not understanding the turmoil, they encounter such things as gangs, love, demon librarians, underage drinking, and friendship. Combining a unique blend of Splatterpunk and black comedy, Death Runs in the Family is fun for horror and cult fanatics "The family that slays together stays together A rollicking family adventure for sick and demented gorehounds " - Sean Yseult, bassist of WHITE ZOMBIE - Author of I'M IN THE BAND. "DEATH RUNS IN THE FAMILY entertains with a combination of over-the-top absurd and hilarious situations along with a healthy dose of zombies and gore. It also touches the heart at the end." - Verhoskan, creator of THE ZOMBIE MOVIE DATABASE. "This is one f-ed up book After reading it, I needed some heavy-duty sandpaper to scrape the residue of the twisted world Jason Stryker created off of my brain. If the literary universe was made up of only disturbing road trip horror comedies, this one would still stand out as the most twisted, the most heinous, and the most perverse of the lot." - Patrick D'Orazio, author of COMES THE DARK, INTO THE DARK, and BEYOND THE DARK. "DEATH RUNS IN THE FAMILY is an entertaining macabre novel for readers with an penchant for black humor. A road story with quirky characters and a grisly twist that will delight horror fans." - Richard W. Haines, director of CLASS OF NUKE 'EM HIGH and WHAT REALLY FRIGHTENS YOU. "DEATH RUNS IN THE FAMILY is weirdly twisted, wickedly humorous, and endlessly violent. Translated: a damn fine piece of dark fiction I recommend." - Jonathan MoOn, author of HEINOUS. http: //MrMoonBlogs.blogspot.com "DEATH RUNS IN THE FAMILY-A fun, twisted, bizarre family adventure. Imagine STAND BY ME with the undead " - Todd Smith, lead singer of POLKADOT CADAVER and DOG FASHION DISCO. "An utterly unique road trip. Jason Stryker's DEATH RUNS IN THE FAMILY has got guts. And gore. And above all, heart. It's darkly funny, creepy, even savage in places...but this is, beneath it all, a book about love, loss and wondering how we find our way in the world." - Joe McKinney, Author of DEAD CITY and FLESH EATERS "A Hilarious Multi-Generational Zombie Road Trip Full Of Love Jason Stryker's DEATH RUNS IN THE FAMILY is full of subversive humor, casual yet aggressive gore, and the love between a boy and his grandpa. The raw, sick, and twisted imagination of this author is a delight and the book's originality is refreshing. If you like the walking dead, moustaches, taquitos, sky diving, knife fights, and enough puke to clean a street (and who wouldn't) this is the book for you. You will not be able to stop reading until you fall asleep clutching the book in your hands. I loved it." - Calvin A.L. Miller II, author of HET MADDEN, A ZOMBIE PERSPECTIVE and THE ZOMBIE'S SURVIVAL GUIDE, THRIVE IN THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE AFTER YOU TURN... "As grotesque as it is funny, this endearing tale of randomness and stomach turning events will capture even those who claim to have heard it all." - Matt Foran, lead singer of CIRCUS OF DEAD SQUIRRELS. "Why would anyone care about my opinion of this book? No one knows who I am." - Mike Odd, lead singer of ROSEMARY'S BILLYGOAT.

Book excerpt: I am Teryn, Daughter of Death... ...And honestly, it's very inconvenient. Am I immortal? Yes. Do I have a carrion form that is both awesome and terrifying? Also yes. But I'm also dead and alive AT THE SAME TIME. It's exhausting. Also my brother, Grim, is king of the Underworld and thinks that makes him so much better than me (yes, it's short for Grim Reaper, don't even get me started on wraith coronation practices). Anyway, there are not a lot of opportunities for advancement for a half-human-half-wraith in Underworld society so I've dedicated my life to being a giant pain to everyone around me (except Reyn, I'm only ever accidentally a pain to him). It was going absolutely swimmingly until I made a bet with Grim and now my only secret is about to be discovered. As it turns out, there are some things worse than death.

It is of value not only for bereaved family members, but also for counselors, psychotherapists, and all professionals...who deal with death and with the bereaved ones." – Joseph C.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Alice has spared nothing for her only daughter's wedding -- from seventy-five yards of bridal train to gourmet food for over three hundred guests and enough glittering elegance to make Mary Alice think about finding herself a fourth rich husband to pay for it all. Practical Patricia Anne has put away her aunt-of-the-bride blue chiffon and settled back into domesticity when fun-loving Mary Alice calls to say they have a post-wedding date with a genealogist from the groom's side of the family. Lunch is a fascinating lesson on the hazards of finding dirty linens in ancestral boudoirs that ends abruptly when their guest scurries off with the local judge, leaving the sisters with their mouths open -- and finishing their luncheon companion's cheesecake -- when the police arrive. Their mysterious guest has taken a plunge from the ninth floor of the courthouse building -- an apparent suicide. But given the scandals a nosy genealogist might have uncovered, the sisters are betting that some proud Southern family is making sure their shameful secrets stay buried. . .along with anyone who tries to dig them up.

Book excerpt: In this national bestseller, a work of vigorous reporting, deep compassion and unerring integrity, award-winning journalist and documentarian John Chipman investigates the lives left ruined in the wake of Dr. Charles Smith's ignominious career. In the mid-'90s, the Ontario Coroner's office decided that death investigation teams needed to "think dirty." They wanted coroners, pathologists and police to be more suspicious--to "assume that all deaths are homicides until satisfied that they are not." They were particularly concerned about pediatric deaths, which historically had been exceedingly difficult to investigate. There were usually no witnesses; no evidence to gather at the scene; no outward signs of trauma on the body. If the pathologist did not discover the truth of what had happened, child abuse could go uncovered. Among those charged to "think dirty" was Dr. Charles Smith, Ontario's top pediatric forensic pathologist at the time. But with virtually no training in forensics, Dr. Smith was ill prepared for his work. Instead of basing his judgments on forensic evidence found during autopsies, he allowed himself to be swayed by circumstantial evidence. The defendants were often single mothers--some on welfare, some struggling with substance abuse. And they made for easy targets. Dr. Smith made dangerous assumptions, and the results were catastrophic. Numerous individuals were pronounced guilty, and incarcerated, on his shaky evidence. This penetrating investigative work explores the wide ripples of destruction caused when the justice system fails, the burden felt by ethical individuals working within that system and the importance of its victims finally being heard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the fact that the public's trust in the news media is at historic lows, despite the fact that hardly a day goes by without another report of unethical behavior by news professionals, journalists and teachers remain dedicated to ethical issues—perhaps more so now than at any other time in history. News companies are developing rigorous codes of conduct; journalists and editors are vigorously reporting on ethical lapses by their peers, and many journalism schools are creating standalone courses in journalism ethics and hiring faculty members who are devoted to ethics research and instruction. Using more than two-dozen actual cases from around the world to examine and apply those principles of ethical journalism, Knowlton and Reader suggest an easy-to-follow, commonsense approach to making ethical decisions in the newsroom as deadlines loom. Moral Reasoning for Journalists serves as an introduction to the underpinnings of journalism ethics, and as a guide for journalists and journalism teachers looking for ways to make ethical choices beyond going with your gut.

This book was released on 2024-06-11 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready to reconnect with family in a meaningful way, but unsure where or how to begin? This beloved classic poignantly explains how constructing the genogram, or a basic family tree, can help us to better understand and mend family relationships and dynamics. Readers learn how genograms can reveal a family’s history of estrangement, alliance, divorce, or suicide, exposing intergenerational patterns that prove more than coincidental. The book sheds light on a range of complex issues such as birth order and sibling rivalry, family myths and secrets, cultural differences, couple relationships, and the pivotal role of loss. In the third edition of this revelatory book, “godmother of genograms” Monica McGoldrick and family therapist Tracey Laszloffy focus on aiding readers in their own work to understand their family history and change their role in relationships where there is distance, conflict, or cutoff. Readers will also find new and updated material on the intergenerational transmission of trauma, the ramifications of uncovering family secrets via DNA testing, and more. If you’ve ever struggled to understand the complex dynamics of your family—and your place within it—this book is for you.

Download or read book Tales from the Valley of Death written by Ross G. Menzies and published by Australian Academic Press. This book was released on 2019-11-30 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dread of death is a problem nearly as old as time itself. Our awareness of our own mortality has been famously referred to by William James as ‘the worm at the core’ of human existence, lingering in the shadows of our daily lives. It is something we must all grapple with. Yet, increasing scientific evidence suggests that ‘death anxiety’ may lie at the heart of a multitude of mental health conditions, driving numerous clinically-relevant behaviours. What can we learn about confronting mortality from the tales of individuals who have been gripped by mental illness and the dread of death? Tales from the Valley of Death explores the complex lives of individuals who have been crippled by death-related fears and related existential issues as revealed by candid interviews with their psychotherapist, internationally renowned clinical psychologist Professor Ross Menzies. Vivid first-hand accounts reveal their private histories, core thoughts, beliefs and attitudes that drove their mental health dilemmas. For some, the struggle has gone on for years as they tried different therapies and therapists. A platform for the wealth of mental and behavioural processes brought to life through these 10 fascinating tales is provided by Rachel Menzies, a leading researcher in death anxiety and daughter of Ross. Her engaging introduction on the history and psychological underpinnings of death anxiety bookends neatly with a comprehensive concluding examination of what these stories reveal about its causes and effects. As we listen in on the interviews, it is hard not to be struck by how fascinating these individuals are, how compelling their histories have been, and how hard they have fought to overcome their difficulties, bravely wading their way through the murky territory of the same existential dilemmas we all must face. Their fears range from sudden death by fire to assassins in the shadows, from anaphylactic shock to a multitude of diseases, from being attacked by dinosaurs lurking in kitchen cupboards to being pushed off cliffs and in front of trains. For many, the ultimate fear is the wrath of God while for others, a lack of meaning and a pervasive sense of pointlessness drove their mental difficulties. Tales from the Valley of Death shows us the many ways that the dread of death and fear of impermanence can strike at the heart of the human experience and the power of effective therapy to improve the lives of others.
