All of the 6.8 billion dreamers who inhabit this planet, awakened at one time or another, amazed, puzzled, entertained or scared by their dream experience. Many have wondered about the how and why of dreams. Some have made it their careers to formally investigate and explain the phenomenon. None have succeeded. A retired psychiatrist and amateur astronomer, who has listened to well over three thousand dreams during the course of fifty years of psychiatric practice, makes the effort by suggesting a novel pathway that includes evolution, relativity and quantum physics. He claims that just as gravity has its laws, so does dreaming. He not only lays out his theory but encourages and guides the reader to perform the simple experiments that led him to his new theory of dreaming. The book is an easy read, even for those who are intimidated by the ever increasing discoveries of non-classical physics.
	Importance of Positive Leadership in Today’s Health Care Management By: Josie D. Menelas, MD, MHA Price: $10.95 Quantity in Basket: none ISBN: 978-1-60862-285-6 Edition: Paperback, 151 Pages Publication Date: May 10, 2011
A True Weapon to Conquer the Future “Importance of Positive Leadership in Today’s Health Care Management” is a tool, a roadmap, a true weapon to conquer the future as the health care industry is becoming a dynamic and more challenging business. Through this book, positive leadership is proved to be vital in this time of change in spite of the challenges surrounding the leaders’ work today, and fundamental in the administration of health care organizations. The first chapter is the introduction. The second chapter presents a review of the literature. The third chapter describes the methodology used. The fourth chapter constitutes a specific analysis of all the data withdrawn from the books about great leadership’s importance. Finally, the fifth chapter includes a summary, proposed recommendations for resolution, and conclusions that can be drawn. However, this book is strongly recommended to anyone who wants to be an efficient leader in any field, because it can help develop qualities of good leadership essential for career success. Book Review I recently had the privilege and pleasure of reading a profoundly informative book: “Importance of Positive Leadership in Today’s Health Care Management”, written by Josie D. Menelas, M.D., M.H.A. As I read it, one of the first things I noticed was the highly appropriate subtitle: “A True Weapon to Conquer the Future”. This book is packed with excellent information regarding leadership and management, along with their responsibilities in the health care industry. More importantly, from cover to cover, its pages contain an amazing wealth of knowledge that the readers can apply not only to their particular professional endeavors, but also to their roles in life. Whether the reader finds himself or herself serving as a political official, the director of an important health care organization, a highly respected dean of a major university, the pastor of a local church, or even a housewife, he or she will acquire important tools for successfully securing the future. This is not a book that you read and leave on the bookshelf. This book needs to be kept in a place where it is readily available at all times, for it is an invaluable asset to those in all walks of life. Of all the books I have read on Leadership, this one stands alone in its ability to help the reader become the best leader that he or she can be in his or her individual management position, each with its own unique responsibilities.

This approach was pioneered by my late uncle, an attorney and financial analyst, and used by several of his millionaire clients and a poor one, namely the author. How to approach annuities, taxes and pension plan borrowing are also discussed as they may apply to your needs. A mini-glossary of the relevant terms is also included to clarify any new words you may not be familiar with. Remember to always check multiple credible sources before you commit to a plan of action. Also, be sure to review your plans on a regular basis. Good luck.

Barack Obama created history by being the first African American President of United States; something which no one could achieve before. He laid the biggest milestone in the journey-path of African Americans, who began it in 1619 as slaves. After that it was a tireless and difficult journey towards excellence, and winning their rights. Barack proved what he announced, “Yes we can.” This slogan became a wave of Obama-mania across the United States, and a new hope surging through the nation. This book records every step of the journey of Barack Obama, right from his childhood. This book has been widely appreciated and recommended for reading in American schools, as an authentic source of modern history. An additional section of this book records the history of the other 43 Presidents of United States. The need of this collector’s item does not get over with time; it is a book which should be in every American home, due to its timeless relevance. It remains as important 10 years later, as it is today.

	Responding to Crisis Situations Confronting Today’s African-American Youth Price: $12.95 Quantity in Basket: none ISBN: 978-1-60862-082-1 Edition: Paperback, 183 Pages Publication Date: August 13, 2009
By: Reverend Dr. James R. Gibbs, Jr. The book is a “how to” create a community-wide awareness from a multi-cultural, interdenominational, holistic, and theological perspective for at-risk and troubled youth(s). It is based on my experiences as a Christian educator, youth counselor and pastor. Through personal witness of African-American youths, I have experienced first-hand and swallowed the bitter pill of poverty, violence, victimization and homicide. African-American youth(s) are statistically the greatest perpetrators of crime in the communities, and the lowest academic achievers. It is my hope to create a greater community-wide awareness at a time when society will see black youth(s) beyond the playing field and look for the real role models in their respective communities such as; teachers, pastors, mothers, fathers, and grandparents. In my book, I will place greater emphasis on the role of parenting and education in influencing youth(s) to partake in activities which will hone their abilities and create positive outlooks on life. The active involvement of various organizations, schools and individuals could hasten the achievement of these goals; for unity leads to revolutionary reform. Interpersonal violence has a dramatic impact on the health of American youth(s). Homicides, the salient and easily measured impact, account for one of every five deaths among youths, ages fifteen to twenty-four and 58 per cent of deaths among black males fifteen to nineteen. From 1985 through 1990, firearm homicide rates increased 141 per cent for all fifteen-to-nineteen year olds and nearly tripled among black males in this age group. Positive Adolescent Choices Training (P.A.C.T.) designed specifically for African-American male and female adolescents, applies cognitive training methods in small group settings in six skill areas. Elementary school teachers (preferably), select students for participation based on social skill deficiencies, problems with aggressive behavior, or history of victimization. Training is provided twice a week in fifty minute sessions for half of the school year. PACT volunteers will facilitate the training and are aided by a high-quality video tape that demonstrates the skills in realistic situations.

	EZ Pass Step 3 CCS - The Efficient USMLE Step 3 CCS Review - Second Edition Price: $34.95 Quantity in Basket: none ISBN: 978-1-60862-043-2 Edition: Paperback, 334 Pages Publication Date: May 25, 2009
By: Alireza B. Esfahane, M.D. The purpose of this book is to help you spend less time memorizing all the details you will need to do well on the CCS (Computer-based Case Simulations) questions in your exam. This exam requires significant time, energy and concentration, and the mnemonics provided in this book will allow you to remember all the steps for managing a patient’s care in an emergency room, inpatient or office setting so that you can answer questions quickly and accurately—saving your precious time and energy by helping you better manage the examination experience. Efficiency is key to a successful examination experience, so familiarity with the USMLE CD software will be crucial. Know the normal values and their cut-off points for the most widely used lab tests and don’t type everything out in the ordering window. Inputting the first 3 to 5 letters will bring up matching terms for you to select. You can also use abbreviations, like TSH and CXR instead of thyroid stimulating hormones and chest X-ray as another way to save time when answering questions. There may be a few cases on the exam that you have never encountered, but don’t panic; just follow the steps and manage the patient in the appropriate setting (the office or emergency room)—ordering labs, imaging and meds as you go. If you handle the patients appropriately you will be fine, even if your final diagnosis is not correct or it seems that the patient’s condition deteriorates. The CSS portion of the exam is more about memorization than being a good doctor. Memorization of the steps you must follow to treat each patient in each case is of primary importance. The methods I have described in this book will help you master these steps so that you can execute them efficiently and, paired with diligent practice using the software provided by the USMLE, will contribute greatly to your success on the CCS questions.

To an American public opinion, anchored in the belief that Islam is all Arab, “Understanding Islam - The Persian Imprint” demonstrates it to be off the mark. The truth is that Iran (the Persia of old) fractured Islam’s identity twice: causing it to be non Arab, first; and provoking its schism later. Further, the World identifies Islamic Men of Science, and their stellar achievements, as Arab whereas, in fact, they were all Persian and Turkomen. A book whose time has come.
