The Marital-Relationship Therapy Casebook - Gerald Weeks, Larry Hof
The Marital-Relationship Therapy Casebook is a volume of in-depth cases that exemplify state-of-the-art couple therapy. It is based on the highly respected work of the Marriage Council of Philadelphia, one of the oldest training and treatment centers in the U.S. that has been exclusively devoted to couple and marital therapy. The book clearly demonstrates, through 10 clinically rich case studies, the Marriage Council''s Intersystem Model. Readers will benefit greatly from this model, a multi-level, comprehensive, integrative, and contextual approach. Its success sterns from the belief that it is essential to fit the therapy to the client system rather than the client-system to the therapy. The model will allow readers to systematically add to techniques they already use, providing a highly flexible system that offers the therapist varied ways to approach problems. The case studies reflect the unique skills and therapeutic stance required for effective couple therapy. The book describes how to conceptualize and treat couples and illustrates, step-by-step, the intricate process of doing couples work according to the Intersystem Model. It repeatedly emphasizes the importance of not pathologizing one partner at the expense of the other, and of being ever-vigilant of the interlocking nature of each partner''s personality, interactional style, intergenerational history, and, sometimes, pathology in the relationship. The Marital-Relationship Therapy Casebook is a continuation of the theories of the Intersystem Model presented in Treating Couples and Couples in Treatment. This current volume will continue to provide couples and marital therapists with the wisdom of some of the finest practitioners in the field.

The American Revolution - Daniel Marston
Updated and revised from the popular 2002 edition, with full-colour maps and new images throughout, this is a concise study of the American Revolutionary War. The American Revolution, or the American War of Independence, has been characterized politically as a united political uprising of the American colonies and militarily as a guerrilla campaign of colonists against the inflexible British military establishment. In this book, Daniel Marston argues that this belief, though widespread, is a misconception. He contends that the American Revolution, in reality, created deep political divisions in the population of the Thirteen Colonies, while militarily pitting veterans of the Seven Years'' War against one another, in a conflict that combined guerrilla tactics and classic 18th-century campaign techniques on both sides. The peace treaty of 1783 that brought an end to the war marked the formal beginning of the United States of America as an independent political entity.With revisions from the author and 50 new images, this illustrated overview of the American Revolution provides an important reference resource for the academic or student reader as well as those with a general interest in the period.

The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Once again the eminent detective is presented with a series of seemingly impenetrable cases: an illustrious client begs him to unmask the nefarious past of a roguish aristocrat; a retired art-supply dealer asks him to investigate the suspicious disappearance of his wife with her neighbour and a stash of money; a veteran of the Boer War appeals to him to track down a missing friend; a man has become convinced that his wife has been sucking their baby son’s blood – will the most famous of sleuths be persuaded to offer his services and set off in pursuit of the criminals? The final collection of Holmes adventures, containing twelve brilliant, unpredictable stories, The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes is a fitting conclusion to its protagonist’s long career and a powerful send-off for Conan Doyle’s greatest creation.

Edward III - William Shakespeare, Octavio Solis
Edward III comes to life in a new version by playwright Octavio Solis. Written after England’s victory over the Spanish Armada in 1588, Edward III follows the exploits of King Edward III and his son Edward, the Black Prince of Wales. England dominates on the battlefield as the play explores questions of kinghood and chivalry through the actions of King Edward and his son. Octavio Solis’s translation of the play provides all of the complexity and richness of the original while renewing the allusions and metaphors lost through time. This translation of Edward III was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present work from “The Bard†in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare’s verse. Enlisting the talents of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print—a new First Folio for a new era.
