Book Description
Although love is the hallmark of humanity, it is not widely discussed in social work and other related professions with respect to its potential connection to abuse. In this groundbreaking book the author argues that, while love and abuse should not co-exist, they often do. Using a feminist narrative approach, stories about love, abuse, and social work are told with the purpose of understanding domestic violence and other forms of abuse. Based on interviews with 84 women of varying ages in Canada and Australia, the author shows how the pain and shame of intimate abuse can leave its mark on the bodies, minds, and souls of victims/survivors long after abusive episodes have ended. Additionally, Fraser also discusses the importance of hope, "enlightened witnesses," income support, and educational opportunities for women who refuse to renounce love relationships altogether, but are instead trying to foster relationships that are respectful as well as erotic.

Book Description
We yearn to experience the idealized love depicted in so many novels, movies, poems, and popular songs. Ironically, it is the idealization of love that arms it with its destructive power. Popular media consistently remind us that love is all we need, but statistics concerning the rate of depression and suicides after divorce or romantic break up remind us what might happened if "all that we need" is taken away. This book is about our ideals of love, our experiences, of love, the actual disparity between the two, and the manners of coping with this disparity. A major study case of the book concerns men who have murdered their wives or partners allegedly 'out of love'. It is estimated that over 30% of all female murder victims in the United States die at the hands of a former or present spouse or boyfriend. How can murdering a loved one be associated with the assumed moral and altruistic love? Not only is love intrinsically ambivalent, but it can also give rise to dangerous consequences. Some of the worst evils have been committed in the name of love (as in the name of God). A unique collaboration between a leading philosopher in the field of emotions and a social scientist, In the Name of Love presents fascinating insights into romantic love and its future in modern society.

A loser like his cousin Alley once was, Julius Stokes begins this sequel, released from prison with nothing more on his mind than gaming women. With the Three Strikes Law in effect, rejections by the new school of thugs, and God's handling of his overflowing lust of women, Julius finally decides to hang up the game, get some church, and settle with one woman. Lavida Richard, Alley's wife, has an old neighbor that is the perfect mate for Julius: Her name is Diane! However, Julius finds that settling with Diane unfortunately mixes him up directly with none other than... Robert Coltrane! That's right, the self-proclaimed "Pimp of the World" and criminal nuisance to Alley and Lavida's past returns with the most ridiculous idea to spoil and ruin everybody's life. "Funny, witty, and outrageous. Boelter spins a yarn that will make you remember what a good laugh feels like!", -Kelly Holderby, GoodBooksOnEarth.com

Book Description
May 1998 in Jakarta, Indonesia. Mass Protest toppled President Suharto's authoritarian regime. It was the beginning of the democratic transition in Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslim population in the world. Unfortunately, there were also racial riots against Chinese-Indonesian (Tionghoa) people in that critical time. Based on the history of Indonesia, Tionghoa people have often been the target of mass tantrums. During the riot, dozens of Chinese and Tionghoa women experienced sexual violence. In addition, there were ample reports of sexual violations and targeting the Chinese girls. It's the first essay poetry book telling discrimination issues in the largest Muslim country, Indonesia. All five fictional stories are based on true events: Ahmadiyah, homosexuality, a migrant worker who became the rape victim, religious differences, and the impact of the racial riots of May 1998. Essay poetry has become a stylistic choice that any writer with a similar viewpoint can emulate.

Book Description
Eveyday is a blessing. Even when a storm approaches, life takes a turn but as God promised we will always see the rainbow after the storm, stretched out through the clouds. God knows what we can handle but sometimes we forget what God can handle. As a father to a son and a mother to a daughter, love and faith is so strong and merciful. God is mercy and love, gentle but strong, he brings joy and correction, and he comforts the soul and gives correction. I feel that God has brought me through the trails and walked with me through many stroms to see who I was before I could see that which is ahead. Love From Above Hear My Cry and now Redeem, In the Name of Love has centered my heart even more towards God and His Son, Jesus Christ. As much as we try to find love, as we try to live a perfect life, and as we try to become that prefect christian we find that we need God even more. God has blessed me with so much but I still fall short of His glory, my heart burns with the desire to love Him that loved me first. God told me to keep my eyes on him. I pray that God continues to use me and these poems to touch your heart as they have touched mine.
