What To Do When College Is Not The Best Time Of Your Life
by David LeibowIf college is supposed to be the best time of our lives, why are so many students unhappy? What causes a well-adjusted and academically successful high school graduate to suddenly flounder when he reaches college? Why might she start to binge on alcohol or engage in unsatisfying hook-ups? Where does the anger and self-doubt come from, and why is it directed at loving parents? Drawing on years of experience treating college-age youth, Leibow provides practice-based answers to these and other pressing questions. Instead of adventure, liberation, and a triumphant march into adulthood, many college students experience humiliation, insecurity, and social and academic failure. Yet by understanding themselves better and adjusting their perspectives, students can grow from these challenges and turn bad choices into wiser personal and educational decisions. Leibow focuses on issues common to college settings& —anxiety and depression, drug and alcohol abuse, overwhelming course loads, homesickness, eating disorders, and unhealthy relationships& —detailing coping strategies and professional resources that best respond to each crisis. Leibow's intimate knowledge of campus life and its unique challenges add an invaluable dimension to his prescriptive advice. Reorienting the expectations of parents and students while providing the tools for overcoming a variety of hurdles, Leibow shows how college can still become one of the best times of our lives.

What We Are in Literature and Art
by Magdalena OstasWhat We Are in Literature and Art begins from a simple observation: literature and art hand us complex material evidence of the experience of people. This is not a mystical, naive, or hopelessly old-fashioned claim about aesthetic works. The experience that literature and art let us touch, to be sure, is wildly and irreducibly complex. But it is an important idea that creative works like poems, novels, plays, paintings, and photographs give us evidence of the lives of persons. They ask: What are we? This book considers how aesthetic works pose this longest-standing question and become entangled in our philosophical conversations about personhood. It is written for a broad audience interested in the relationship between literature and philosophy. Through sequences of reflective fragments, the book weaves through a diverse constellation of works in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The reflections zigzag through poetry (William Wordsworth to Gwendolyn Brooks), novels (Jane Austen to Virginia Woolf), drama (Henrik Ibsen to Samuel Beckett), visual art (J. M. W. Turner to Jeff Wall), and philosophy (Immanuel Kant to Ludwig Wittgenstein). What We are in Literature and Art is an experiment in philosophical reading.
What We Didn't Expect: Personal Stories about Premature Birth
by Melody SchreiberEvery year, 400,000 families in the United States welcome premature babies ...Ten percent of babies born in the U.S. are preemies. But that one word, "preemie," encompasses a range of medical and cultural experiences. There are textbooks, medical-ish guidebooks, and the occasional memoir to turn to ... but no book that collects personal experiences from the many people who have parented, cared for, or been preemies themselves. Until now. In What We Didn't Expect, journalist Melody Schreiber brings together a chorus of acclaimed writers and thinkers to share their diverse stories of having or being premature babies. The stories here cover everything from life-changing tests of faith to navigating the red tape of healthcare bureuacracy; from overcoming unimaginable grief to surviving and thriving against all odds. The result is a moving, heartfelt book, and a crucial and informative resource for anyone who has, or is about to have, the experience of dealing with a premature birth.
What We Have
by Amy BoeskyAt thirty-two, Amy Boesky thought she had it all figured out: a wonderful new man in her life, a great job, and the (nearly) perfect home. For once, she was almost able to shake the terrible fear that had gripped her for as long as she could remember. All of the women in her family had died before the age of forty-five-from cancer-and she and her sisters had grown up in time's shadow. Urgency colored every choice they made and was amplified now that each of them approached thirty-five-the deadline their doctors prescribed for having preventive surgery with the hope that they could thwart their family's medical curse. But Amy didn't want to dwell on fear now; she wanted to spend time with her husband plan for a new baby; live her life. And that's just what she did. In a way that only someone who is so acutely aware of passing time can, she chose to put her anxieties aside and relish life's simple pleasures. In What We Have, Amy shares a deeply transformative year in her family's life and invites listeners to join in their joy, laughter, and grief. Unparalleled in its optimism and wisdom, What We Have celebrates the promise of a full life, even in the face of uncertainty.
What We Knew in the Night: Reawakening the Heart of Witchcraft
by Raven GrimassiExplores the roots of witchcraft while providing an integrated magical system to serve the modern witchRaven Grimassi is among the pioneering authors of the modern witchcraft renaissance. In What We Knew in the Night, he presents a cohesive and complete system of witchcraft based on traditional sources.

Grimassi lays out key mystical and practical foundations of witchcraft and restores their important role.Sharing lessons and advice from his own almost 50 years of personal study and practice, Grimassi explores what he describes as the “heart of the old rites.” He also offers practical instructions and a clear 5-step process of empowerment—one chapter for each step —for anyone who wants to walk the path of witchcraft: 1.Virtue of the Moon2.The Wafting3.The Witch’s Blade4.The Clay Pentacle5.The Witch’s RingHaving accomplished these steps, the reader will possess the “quintessence of witchery” and be firmly grounded in the arcane art of witchcraft.

What We Saw

This honest, authentic debut novel--inspired by the events in the Steubenville rape case--will resonate with readers who've ever walked that razor-thin line between guilt and innocence that so often gets blurred, one hundred and forty characters at a time. <p>The party at John Doone's last Saturday night is a bit of a blur. Kate Weston can piece together most of the details: Stacey Stallard handing her shots, Ben Cody taking her keys and getting her home early. . . . But when a picture of Stacey passed out over Deacon Mills's shoulder appears online the next morning, Kate suspects she doesn't have all the details. When Stacey levels charges against four of Kate's classmates, the whole town erupts into controversy. Facts that can't be ignored begin to surface, and every answer Kate finds leads back to the same questions: Who witnessed what happened to Stacey? And what responsibility do they have to speak up about what they saw? <p>National Book Award finalist Deb Caletti calls <i>What We Saw</i> "a smart, sensitive, and gripping story about the courage it takes to do what's right."
