Michele Weiner-Davis

(Without His Even Knowing It)

Instead she urges readers to stop analyzing their problems to death, stop nagging, and start doing what works. She emphasizes the value of taking action, and says that when it comes to influencing men, sometimes it's easier done than said. At last, here is a toolkit for creating the kind of relationships women have always wanted -- a book that no woman will want to be without.Every woman knows that building an ideal relationship takes work, but whether you're trying to get your man to remember to put the toothpaste cap back on, take a more active role in parenting, or recognize that, unlike the oven, the house isn't self-cleaning, you are often met with stiff opposition. It's time to get smart instead of getting even.The only thing more universal than a woman's desire to change her man is a man's resistance to it. But Michele Weiner-Davis has great news. She tells women that all man-changing techniques are not created equal; some strategies are simply more effective than others. And based on her remarkable success in helping couples make their relationships work, Weiner-Davis knows them all. In Divorce Busting, she introduced us to her method for improving troubled relationships based on Solution-Oriented Brief Therapy, a quick but lasting fix. She also introduced readers to the revolutionary concept that only one person is needed to change a relationship.Now she's back, only this time she has asked men to leave the room so that she can teach women -- the primary caretakers of relationships -- the art of effecting change single-handedly. Her straightforward, practical, sometimes politically incorrect advice on man-changing moves women beyond their self-limiting beliefs that mencall all the shots.Weiner-Davis tackles mainstream advice that suggests that opening up and talking about feelings will get women what they want.

Laura Schlessinger

Transform Your Man, Your Marriage, Your Life

The perfect companion book for the woman who wants to ensure herself--and her man--that the marital happiness and satisfaction she dreams of is possible.

With The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands Dr. Laura helped hundreds of thousands of readers make good marriages even better and saved many from the brink of divorce. Now, she expands on that bestseller with more insight into the special power women have to transform their husbands, their marriages, and their lives.

Through a series of provocative chapters and Q&As, Dr. Laura guides women on how to assess what is valuable and what is vulnerable in their marriages, and encourages them to think about what is really important about being a woman, a wife, and a mother. In addition, readers will find inspirational stories and tips, thought-provoking essays, and space for entries and journals. Dr. Laura sums it up best: "Woman Power is part standard book, part journal, part workbook, and all a positive way to take the basic concepts from The Proper Care and expand and reinforce those ideas to help you transform your life, and that of your family, into the spiritually sound and satisfying experience it can be."

Walter Cronkite

Overview: He has been called the most trusted man in America. His 60-year-long journalistic career has spanned the Great Depression, several wars, and the extraordinary changes that have engulfed our nation over the last two-thirds of the 20th century. When Walter Cronkite advised his television audience in 1968 that the war in Vietnam could not be won, President Lyndon B. Johnson said: "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost middle America." Now, at the age of eighty, Cronkite has written his life story-the personal and professional odyssey of the original "anchorman" for whom that very word was coined. As a witness to the crucial events of this century-first for the Houston Press, then for the United Press wire service, and finally for CBS in the fledgling medium of television-Cronkite set a standard for integrity, objectivity, enthusiasm, compassion, and insight that is difficult to surpass. He is an overflowing vessel of history, and a direct link with the people and places that have defined our nation and established its unique role in the world. But Walter Cronkite is also the man who loved to drive race cars "for the same reason that others do exhibitionist, dangerous stunts. It sets us apart from the average man; puts us, in our own minds, on a level just a little above the chap who doesn't race." He is also the man whose "softheartedness knows no rational bounds" and who always had "great problems at the theater, tearing up at the slightest offense against animals and people, notably the very old or the very young." He is the man who could barely refrain from spitting on the defendants at the Nuremberg Trials, and who could barely announce President Kennedy's assassination over the air for the sobs in his throat. Walter Cronkite helped launch the juggernaut of television, and tried to imbue it with his own respect for quality and ethics; but now he occupies a ringside seat during the decline of his profession and the ascent of the lowest common denominator. As he aptly observes, "They'd rewrite Exodus to include a car chase." Still, the American people know the difference. They know that for decades they have had the privilege of getting their news from a gentleman of the highest caliber. And they will immensely enjoy A Reporter's Life.

Andrew Weil

A Vision of Medicine That Can Transform Our Future

A landmark book that shows us exactly how we have let health and medicine become a crisis in our society and what we can all do to resolve it. Healthcare is no longer just a public issue; for millions of Americans it is now a crisis on their own doorstep. Cost of medical care today are a leading cause of personal bankruptcy. Although policy makers have weighed in on all sides, in this book, bestselling author Andrew Weil, M.D., identifies the root of the problem. He shows us exactly how we have become embroiled in the present situation and provides a solution that will not only make healthcare affordable, but will also put each one of us on the road to optimum health. Dr. Weil states that we have a right to good healthcare that is effective, accessible, and affordable. Many Americans would be surprised to know that our national health is far from the best in the world, even though we spend more money on it than any other country. The World Health Organization recently rated America thirty-seventh in health outcomes, on par with Serbia. Tackling head-on the Three Major Myths of American Medicine, Dr. Weil shows how medical schools fail to give future doctors the education they need to care for patients, how insurance companies have destroyed our opportunity to get excellent care, and how pharmaceutical companies have come to rule our lives. The solution involves nothing less than the creation of a completely new culture of health and medicine in this country, one that we can each start building today.
