A provocative and intimate portrayal of a 94-year-old woman, Camilla, that challenges readers to live genuinely. Warm characters-her gentlemanly dance partner, her snappy teenaged great granddaughter who shares with Camilla a burdensome but essential gifting, and her mutually mischievous neighbor and best friend from childhood-add meaning to her life. A thoughtful person, she struggles to find a death that matches her life, but Life surprises her. A book about an undeniable romance, an enduring friendship, and following one's dreams, it leads the reader to see aging differently and how achingly beautiful life really is.
From hormones to brain structure, women and men differ. The author explains how testosterone, lesser empathy, and being a "Systemizer" affect men in romances. A psychologist, Dr. Foster uses both composite stories from her practice and fascinating research findings to illustrate The Naked Truth About Men. Many women suffer silently in romances and women initiate two thirds of divorces. The book gives voice to why this is true and what you can do about it. One chapter is devoted to what a woman can actually and specifically expect from a man. This includes understanding his main source of connection, how he communicates for different reasons than she does, why conflict is threatening to him but not her, and how his personal growth will look different than hers. Finding a life partner is getting harder for women and the author tells why. Finally, Dr. Foster speaks of the emerging woman: how she'll restore balance to the work world, find fulfillment in friendships, is headed toward overcoming an aversion to risk taking, and will restore joyous sex. Women aren't done rustling the social order yet. As they come to terms with the truth about men and the dilemma female-male relationships pose, they are breaking away from former mores to find something new. This sea change will strike at the soul of romance and how females and males couple. Having female hormones and brain structure is about more than the capacity to supply breast milk. It's about values: tolerance, relationship closeness, being genuine, seeing the big picture, and nurturing everything from Planet Earth to a new style of politicking. The rise of the feminine will bring the values we need now. Men, by and large, did not fair well in the evolutionary machine, as they cut off from their relational and emotional selves through centuries of killing animals, the silent stocking of prey, and combat. But when a woman is asked to make a man her primary source of love, affection, and emotional intimacy, she has to figure out what to do. Never before have women been positioned to so radically change the world. It all begins with women's shifting their expectations of romance. What Women Want is the companion book especially for men and When Your Relationship Changes is the follow up to The Naked Truth About Men.
Dr. Addy Conrad, psychologist, encounters the ethical minefield common to private practice. Susan, a professional and mother with whom Addy identifies, is torn by a traumatic childhood. But Susan is more complex than what originally met the eye, having colorful interior personalities, and one tragic disclosure plants Addy squarely in a quandary. Her peak challenge, though, is Michael, a striking but narcissistic surgeon, who finally discards his emotional hide-and-seek to disclose his raw pain. At times, Addy waivers under his seduction, especially as her own marriage falters. She warms to Michael as he reveals his vulnerable, undone psyche. His flirting is intermingled with genuine therapeutic work, leaving Addy swaying, as if on a precarious high wire. A serpentine client, Carmen, reeking of cigarettes, snags Addy's old memories of her mother's death by cancer. Countertransference-where the therapist projects someone onto the client-grips her. A beloved former professor helps her disentangle her own unprocessed feelings from that of Carmen's. Dr. Conrad courts a growing unease for her friend, Dr. Sebastian Courtney, her intellectual idol. After working with his first severely abused client, he suffers from night terrors. She intuits that he is in danger beyond what he is disclosing. He has, in fact, slipped into secondary post traumatic stress disorder--taking on the pain and symptoms of his client. In a risky gambit, and partly blinded by her own attachment to him, she takes matters into her own hands. A testament to the human spirit, Sessions: Memoirs of a Psychotherapist, will challenge as much as it entertains you.
The classic pocketbook guide for guys. A psychologist offers bottom line steps for starting and building a romance. Everything you need to know to be smart about women.
