This book was released on 2024-07-13 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estrangement is the banning of a family member from the family. It is like shunning and equally as devastating. Parents or parents can be banned from seeing their children and grandchildren. A sibling might never communicate with another sibling. A father can be banned from the family for divorcing the mother. Disagreements over the grandchildren can be the source of an estrangement. Whatever the reason, the estrangement epidemic in America is affecting many Baby Boomers. The angst between Generation X, Generation Y, and the Baby Boomers over many issues is a major cause of the epidemic. Psychologists are partially responsible for this epidemic by advising their clients to “get rid of toxic people in your life,” and that includes parents. Estrangement is the ousting of a family member from the core group. Parents and grandparents have become victims of estrangement from their children. People are silent about their situations because of the shame and embarrassment associated with this phenomenon. Although psychologists have written several books for the estranged to help them with their situation, few have been written by the persons who have been estranged and the effects of that estrangement on them. Crazy Little Children are Jangling the Keys of the Kingdom is written by one who has been estranged, and it is a personal account of the effects of that estrangement. It is also written to the estrangers, those who do the estranging, and those who have suffered the same fate. It is a heartbreaking story that is being duplicated throughout the country. Most psychologists cannot get their heads around the explosion of estrangement in American Society, especially to those considered great parents. This is an account for those who have found themselves in an estrangement situation and will help them find a way to heal.

Book Synopsis Who We Met on the Way to Stanford by : Richard P. Sinay
Download or read book Who We Met on the Way to Stanford written by Richard P. Sinay and published by richardpsinay.com. This book was released on 2024-08-09 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 2000, my son began attending Stanford on a golf scholarship. It was a long and challenging road to achieve this goal. When he learned about the college, he went around the house with his Stanford sweatshirt and seldom took it off. After winning the San Diego Junior World Golf Championship, he was an accomplished junior golfer. Stanford's coach at the time was Wally Goodwin, an excellent, cheerful fellow who was also Tiger Woods's coach. Wally had seen the best golfers at Stanford, so he was a coach who knew what he wanted in a player. He started following my son after this victory at the San Diego tournament, and around the time, he received a letter asking Wally if he would come to watch him play golf. Wally did; he was there often to oversee this young man's development and golf. As a father, I took my son to many golf tournaments. He was a joy to watch and did well as a junior golfer through high school. He even had the accomplishment of replacing Tiger Woods' scoring record. Tiger’s best score for the high school championships in Southern California was 66, but my son managed to shoot a 65 in his junior year in high school against players from five hundred and eighty-six schools and other high schools. Many other delightful moments were watching my son play, and good times I will not forget. One day, while reading through some of my writings, I came across some notes my son had sent me about appealing the dismissal of his scholarship. Reading the notes almost seventeen years later was a revelation to me. I was unaware of the time frames at the time of the essence of this story, so I investigated the information further. What I discovered became the basis of this book. There were weeks of struggling with the time frames and difficulties understanding what happened in the struggle at Stanford. The book is my way of putting together what I discovered. What I found to be mostly true, but not having been there myself, I may not even know half the story. Nevertheless, this is my memoir of what it was like raising a kid with extraordinary talent playing golf and what happened when he arrived at Standford to fulfill his obligation for the scholarship he received.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate corruption and executive greed bully the little man. The overwhelming power of the large corporation leaves the victim with few options. Stanley Birmingham, a competent, high-priced East Coast attorney in a large, prestigious firm, has become bored with corporate law. To save his sanity, he unexpectedly finds a unique and new approach to his profession. Cajoled into protecting the rights of a naive technical genius, Stanley discovers a hidden talent for unorthodox and devious maneuvering. With hundreds of millions of dollars on the line, Stanley stays one step ahead of the competition and manages to win the largest case of his life. The case settles for millions, and with this fortune, Stanley resigns from the firm and moves to the West Coast, where he open his own practice-one that specializes in lost causes with the potential for large financial results. He shortly partners with an aggressive young lawyer, Brad Silverstone, a kindred spirit of sorts, who brings with him their first client-an amusing Russian émigré. They soon meet Tom and Nolan, two entrepreneurial businessmen who hire the partners to represent them in a case of duplicity and chicanery right up their alley. They learn their story of developing a revolutionary new product, only to have the idea stolen by Michael Dugan, a kid from the wrong side of the tracks who married into a wealthy family controlling a $22 billion conglomerate. Their investigation traces the rags-to-riches career of Dugan and how he was able to steal the patent, cover his trail, and come out triumphant. If they are able to prove his wrongdoing, a massive amount of money will be their reward.

This book was released on 2024-07-23 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Epistolary Autobiography is a day-to-day writing about events in a person’s life—my observations of America during a twenty-five thousand-mile trip around the country. My trip started in Indio, California, took along the South to the Southeast, then to the Northeast, then back along a Northern route to the Midwest, the Northwest, and then full circle back home. The trip was intended to do three things: allow me to check off some of my bucket list items, meet with my first cousins to present information about the origin of our grandparents, and explore those places I always wanted to see as a teacher of American Literature and history. While traveling through the country, I made some observations about America that may differ from other points of view, but these observations are what I saw on my trip. I share those with the reader as part of the interest of the book. I also wanted to share my perceptions of the great writers of American Literature and what they stood for. I was also checking off my bucket list and sharing my experiences doing those things, like visiting the boyhood home of Mark Twain, one of my favorite writers. I taught these writers for thirty-seven years and wanted to see the ground they walked on. Literature was an important part of my life; seeing the hallowed grounds where some of our literary giants stood was also a goal for this adventure. I wanted to see Old Faithful go off, drive in Yellowstone National Park, see Mount Rushmore, and play golf at some exclusive golf courses here in America.
