Thompson, Tracy NEW - The Ghost in the House: Motherhood, Raising Children, and Struggling with Depression
HarperCollins 2006 0060843799 / 9780060843793 Hardcover New New Hardcover
Item is brand new from publisher overstock. May have Publishers remainder mark on the edge just to assure it is not returned to the store. Hardcover with dust jacket. From Publishers Weekly:Washington Post reporter Thompson wrote about her experience of depression as a young woman in The Beast. Now she shares her experiences as a mother struggling with depression, mirrored in her childhood memories of her own mother's depression. All of this is filtered through research about the role of this cycle in families. Meandering anecdotes from the author and a survey of 400 mothers conducted by Sherryl Goodman of Emory University serve as both a strength and weakness of the book; they're instructive, but the various voices become confusing at times. Further, Thompson cites only evidence that "validates" her conclusions. And she may be too close to her subject. Yes, motherhood is daunting and difficult, but not every overwhelmed mother is depressed, as Thompson seems to imply. The information Thompson offers on depression (symptoms such as withdrawing and hyperirritability) and coping ("faith, friends, feeling like a child") will help guide and support readers. Sporadic emphasis on how children are affected includes an account of a young boy whose migraines are linked to his mother's depression, and another suggesting that one mother never learned healthy parenting skills because of childhood experiences with her depressed mother. Taken cautiously, this book offers support for those in the midst of struggling. (Aug. 1) NOTE: Publisher overstock books may have a remainder mark.

Karen J. Foli Ph.D.; John R. Thompson M.D. NEW - The Post-Adoption Blues: Overcoming the Unforseen Challenges of Adoption
Rodale Books 2004 1579548660 / 9781579548667 Paperback New Paperback
Brand new. Just a bit of ever so slight shelf wear but it is new, crisp and unread! May have publishers remainder mark on the edge just to assure it is not returned to the store. Product Description: Over 150,000 people adopt children each year, and more than 2 million parents are now raising adopted children and grandchildren. While the path to parenting through adoption is rich with rewards and fulfillment, it's not without its bumps. This compassionate, illuminating, and ultimately uplifting book is the first to openly recognize the very normal feelings of stress that adoptive families encounter as they cope with the challenges and expectations of their new families. Where do parents turn when the waited-for bonding with their adopted child is slow to form? When they find themselves grieving over the birth child they couldn't have? When the child they so eagerly welcomed into their home arrives with major, unexpected needs? Until now, adoptive parents have had to struggle silently with their feelings, which can range from flutters of anxiety to unbearable sadness.At last, Karen J. Foli, a registered nurse, and her husband, John R. Thompson, a psychiatrist, lift the curtain of secrecy from "Post Adoption Depression Syndrome" (PADS). Drawing on their own experience as adoptive parents as well as interviews with dozens of adoptive families and experts in the field, the couple offers parents the understanding, support, and concrete solutions they need to overcome post-adoption blues-and open their hearts to the joy adoption can bring. About the Author: Karen J. Foli, Ph.D., an accomplished writer, communications scholar and registered nurse, is the author of Like Sound Through Water: A Mother's Journey Through Auditory Processing Disorder.John R. Thompson, M.D., Foli's husband, is a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in child and adolescent issues. They live in Bloomington, Indiana.

Thompson, Sylvia The Kitchen Garden Cookbook
Bantam 1995 0553099566 / 9780553099560 Hardcover Very Good Very Good Hardcover
Light edge wear to jacket and book. Inside is clean and excellent. Hardcover with unclipped dustjacket. Midwest Book Review: Cook and preserve homegrown produce through this fine internationally-influenced collection which emphasizes using garden veggies. From an African Chicken and Okra Stew with Peanut Sauce to Creamy Onion Pie, this includes dishes which require a degree of preparation, but which will intrigue vegetarian and vegetable cooks looking for something different. From Publishers Weekly: Most vegetable recipes, contends Thompson in this stellar companion to The Kitchen Garden (reviewed above), have been designed "to disguise lackluster storebought produce-it's smoke and mirrors with razzle-dazzle seasoning." In their stead she offers "no disguises" and "little that's complex." Fresh, homegrown vegetables and fruits star in a glittering panoply of recipes, organized alphabetically by main ingredient. Thompson generally calls for little fat, and throughout she suggests a myriad of variations and ideas for substitutions. As might be expected from a Southern Californian, there are many Mexican-inspired dishes (Dent Corn and Ancho Chili Pudding), but Thompson samples cuisines from Indonesia to Ireland, including the likes of Doukhobor Borscht and Tanzanian Coconut Kala Chana Beans over Rice. A great boon to untimely gardeners are such recipes as Bolting Lettuce Soup and Linguine with Flowering Broccoli. The brief "Cook's Notebook" defines such terms as blanching and includes a few basic related recipes, e.g., vinaigrette dressing and flaky pastry. Photos not seen by PW. NOTE: Publisher overstock books may have a remainder mark. A remainder mark is a mark on the bottom or top edge that is added just to assure that it is not returned to the store!

Thompson, Keith To Be a Man (New Consciousness Reader)
Tarcher 1991 0874776376 / 9780874776379 Paperback Good Paperback
Book has edge-rubbing, bumped corners and scuffing associated with normal light use. Top edge has faint stamp mark. Inside is clean. From Publishers Weekly: The nearly 90 pieces in this anthology introduce readers to the concept of the deep masculine, which, editor Thompson ( Angels and Aliens: UFOs and the Mythic Imagination ) says, "connotes ancient modes of adult manhood characterized by emotional richness and spiritual intensity." Yet another element in the burgeoning "men's movement," designed to produce a new male who exhibits a kinder, gentler machismo, the book explores masculine psychology, identity, sexuality and bonding. Sam Keen discusses the satisfaction a man takes in his work and providing for a family, and Robert Bly, in an interview with Thompson, examines the development of the enervated, disempowered "soft male" in need of both male initiation and father figures. Some arbitrarily chosen snippets from famous writers (Chandler, Kafka, Hesse) illuminate what it means to be male. Richard Haddad's manifesto for male liberation is at once angry and whining in its denial that men are privileged by society and its indictment of the women's movement for ignoring how men feel. Thompson's piece discussing the need for all-male sanctuaries is unctuous--a tone infecting most of the work. nCopyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc.
