And she believes them…right up until she forgets to take her medicine and feels better, not worse. Suddenly, her mind is sharper than it’s been in months and the pain is easier to bear. Now, to stay alive, she must trick the people who’ve been tricking her in order to find out what she’s really been taking all these months—and who is trying to kill her.

Book Synopsis The Stolen Wish by : Jeffery Chandler
Download or read book The Stolen Wish written by Jeffery Chandler and published by . This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do wishes exist? Do they really come true? Or is it we work towards making our wishes come true that makes them happen? Robin Baker, a freelance writer, and John Christian, a photography student at Brooks Institute, were challenged by this question. Robin's wish did come true after she tossed a coin into a fountain. She was at the airport headed to Chicago to ghostwrite for a celebrated novelist, that is, until John stole her wish when he took her wishing-coin from the fountain into which she had tossed it. While she didn't know John had taken her coin, she was acutely aware she had suddenly found herself stranded and destitute at the airport after she got a call canceling her new job. John happened to come to the airport to pick up his boss. He came across Robin sobbing in the airport waiting room. He introduced himself and they talked about her situation. John felt compelled to help. Though risky she accepted John's invitation to stay at his home until she could get her life back together. Robin was shocked to find John's home was, as she described it, an enchanted cottage in a mystical garden, at a great Santa Barbara, California estate. Their relationship moved along until Robin learned John had taken her coin from the fountain. She became very upset. "Wishing coins are something six year olds believe in, Robin. There are no wishes. There is no Peter Pan, no Tinkerbell," John said in his defense.This infuriated Robin. Wasn't it bad enough John had stolen her wish? It was heartbreaking to have lost her dream job. But for John to now make fun of her beliefs was just too much. Over the next few days she thought about what had happened. While her dream job dissipated when the coin was removed from the fountain, she had to admit her wishing coin had brought them together. Maybe there are no wishes, she surmised. Maybe wishes were just a holdover from her childhood as John had suggested. Maybe it was time to grow up and face the real world. Maybe?

Book excerpt: Customary Law Ascertained Volume 1 is the first of a three-volume series in which traditional authorities in Namibia present the customary laws of their communities.

Volume 3 contains the customary laws of the Nama, Ovaherero, Ovambanderu, and San communities.

It has been facilitated by the Human Rights and Documentation Centre of the University of Namibia, through the former Dean of the Law Faculty, Professor Manfred Hinz.

The Collectors begins an enchanting two-book series from Jacqueline West, the New York Times–bestselling author of The Books of Elsewhere series. For fans of Serafina and the Black Cloak, The Isle of the Lost, and The Secret Keepers. Van has always been an outsider. He’s hard of hearing, collects trinkets, and lives with his single mother—an opera singer with a huge personality. Then one day, Van notices a girl stealing pennies from a fountain, and everything changes. He follows the girl, Pebble, and uncovers an underground society full of wishes and the people who collect them. Not all wishes are good and even good wishes often have unintended consequences, and the Collectors have made it their duty to protect us. But they aren't the only ones who have their eyes on the world’s wishes—and they may not be the good guys, after all. Jacqueline West spins a story about friendship, magic, and the gray area between good and evil. The Collectors is for fans of Cassie Beasley’s Circus Mirandus and Jonathan Auxier’s The Night Gardener. Booklist calls it, “A brilliant fantasy adventure exploring the consequences of getting what you wish for.”

Book Synopsis The Psychology of Theft and Loss by : Robert Tyminski
Download or read book The Psychology of Theft and Loss written by Robert Tyminski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we steal? This question has confounded everyone from parents to judges, teachers to psychologists, economists to more than a few moral thinkers. Stealing can be a result of deprivation, of envy, or of a desire for power and influence. An act of theft can also bring forth someone’s hidden traits – paradoxically proving beneficial to their personal development. Robert Tyminski explores the many dimensions of stealing, and in particular how they relate to a subtle balance of loss versus gain that operates in all of us. Our natural aversion to loss can lead to extreme actions as a means to acquire what we may not be able to obtain through time, work or money. Tyminski uses the myth of Jason, Medea and the Golden Fleece to explore the dilemmas involved in such situations and demonstrate the timelessness of theft as fundamentally human. The Psychology of Theft and Loss incorporates Jungian and psychoanalytic theories as well as more recent cognitive research findings to deepen our appreciation for the complexity of human motivations when it comes to stealing, culminating in consideration of the idea of a perpetually present ‘inner thief’. Combining case studies, Jungian theory and analysis of many different types of stealing including robbery, kidnapping, plagiarism and technotheft, The Psychology of Theft and Loss is a fascinating study which will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, family therapists and students.
