Demystification has become an intellectual buzzword; finally, we have a book that accurately fits the definition. When most people think of "hypnosis" they imagine either a sinister, Mesmeresque figure declaring to his subject "you're getting sleepier and sleepier ... your eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, you vill go into trance," or an entertainer compelling a subject to "cluck like a chicken." In this comprehensive introduction to hypnosis based on the pioneering work of Milton H. Erickson, Bill O'Hanlon demystifies the concept of "trance" and "hypnosis." He goes to the heart of the subject by answering the question: "What is trance?" But be forewarned: This is no dry, formal discourse on trance induction techniques. Rather, readers are invited to share the experience of attending one of O'Hanlon's lively and popular two-day workshops on Ericksonian hypnosis. In an energetic and often humorous manner, O'Hanlon takes his audience through the basics of trance induction and explains the how, what, and why of hypnosis. Readers familiar with Erickson's work will be delighted at the author's Class of Problems/Class of Solutions approach, which deconstructs Ericksonian interventions and provides a powerful new tool in directing clients toward solution. Each individual element of trance induction is explained clearly, through the use of case examples, demonstrations, and audience participation exercises. The book's gradual approach takes readers through the hypnotic process in a step-by-step fashion, increasing their skills and confidence.

Lisa Jones, a beautiful young woman with a Caribbean accent, asks private investigator, Frank Taylor, to locate her missing brother. Without officially taking the case, Frank soon finds himself peeling through layers of fraud, lies and deceit. Before he can locate the missing brother, the man turns up murdered in a hotel room, which just happens to be registered to none other than Lisa Jones. Suddenly, Lisa is nowhere to be found, and several shadowy characters are trying to put Frank in the hospital. That's when the police get involved. That's also when Frank finds out that the dead man wasn't Lisa's brother at all. Set in New York City, Deadbeat is a fast-paced, hard-boiled thriller in the tradition of Raymond Chandler. A tightly woven page-turner from a fresh new talent.

What happens when a man invites six of his closest friends over, for dinner, drinks, and mingling? Lots of fun, laughter, mature conversation, and oh yeah, a clash of ego s. Overall, it started out as a beautiful night, until someone brought up the topic of relationships. A bunch of finger pointing never solved anything. But leave it up to the host to provide a proper resolution. Since the men in this room feel bad relationships are caused by women, and women feel they are caused by men, why don t you put your money where your mouths are. Let s give five thousand dollars to the one person that proves their point by sharing their biggest disappointment involving the opposite sex. The person with the most votes wins the pot. Is it a deal? They all agree to the terms, but the stories that come out of each of their mouths, you will not believe. Egos are put on the line. Opinions are tolerated but far from accepted in this humorously erotic, grown and sexy Battle of The Sexes. Never Blend With The Wind, the second skilfully written masterpiece from new comer writer extraordinaire, Mr. Michael T. Martin, offers the authors creative take on African American relationships based on true experiences, all while telling one hell of a story. Prepare to be entertained.
