FORECLOSURE NATION : Mortgaging the American Dream [Shari B Olefson, JD, LLM] The family residence is the backbone of the American economy, the most valuable and enduring asset for those who have achieved a financial foothold. Yet today record numbers of households confront foreclosure. In the next year it is estimated that over two million Americans will lose their homes and almost two billion dollars of wealth will disappear in the process. How did the traditional "American Dream" morph into a nightmare for so many? Real estate attorney and educator Shari B Olefson, a recognised expert in the current mortgage crisis and its effects on homeowners, explains how America slipped to the edge of this dangerous stagnation-recession precipice. In plain language that is easily understandable to the average person, she clarifies legal and financial terminology and describes how our country's mortgage system really works. Utilising real-life lender and borrower interviews, she exposes its intrinsic flaws and often discriminatory practices, from the mortgage application process to the securitisation of bundled mortgages by large investment firms. She also provides evidence to show the government's and Wall Street's roles in both causing and solving the problem. Above all, Olefson offers expert tips, tools, and resources to help you: Choose a mortgage professional and understand what's motivating him or her; Decide what mortgage product fits best and when to refinance; Get the best fees, interest rate, and service; Create your own solutions for navigating the credit crunch; Know what to do when you can't afford your mortgage; Protect your home if you are at risk of foreclosure; Understand how to proceed if you are already in foreclosure; Capitalise on emerging opportunities and avoid the scams and mortgage fraud; Prepare for coming changes. This book demystifies the real estate bubble and the sub-prime mortgage crises that followed. With bold, clear visuals like inventory, absorption, and price trend graphs, Olefson pinpoints exactly when and why experts are predicting a recovery. She also cites statistics that strongly suggest the number of foreclosures will surge in the fall of 2008 and again in 2009, with increased reverberations felt throughout the US and global economies. This book will prove indispensable to explaining what is happening and guiding readers through. Whether you are planning on buying your first home, struggling to meet your current mortgage payments, facing foreclosure, or wondering how your investments will be affected, this comprehensive book will assuage the fear of the unknown, empowering you to make wise choices and protect your most valuable assets. { 275pp, 155x230mm, October 2008; PB, £12.99, 1591026636:9781591026631 , Prometheus Books }

HE'S NOT AUTISTIC BUT... : How We Pulled Our Son From the Mouth of the Abyss [Tenna Merchent] According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in 166 children is born with autism. Tenna Merchent is only too familiar with this frightening statistic as she feared her own son might suffer from this devastating disorder. When her son was born, he seemed healthy. But by the time he was six weeks old, the infant cried for hours each evening if he wasn't constantly nursed. As the months went on, Clay frequently was seriously ill. By the time he was two years old, he could say only a few words, would bang his head for no apparent reason, often walked on his toes, was severely allergic to numerous things, constantly sick, and suffered from nose and chest congestion. He had systemic yeast, was terrified by sudden noises, wouldn't sleep for more than two hours straight, and was unhappy most of the time. All of his symptoms pointed to the possibility of autism. And to make matters worse, Merchent herself became seriously ill. This book describes her journey through traditional medicine, then the move to alternative care. The miracles begin when she discovers a master herbalist who reveals to her the primary cause of their ill health: aluminium. The simplicity of fully curing both herself and her son is astounding, and she illustrates the art of releasing in detail here. Also included is an invaluable list of remedies for common ailments, as well as a section on resources for herbs and homeopathies. { 144pp, 155x230mm, June 2007; PB, £10.99, 1933697008:9781933697000 , AtlasBooks (Joyous Messenger Inc.) }
HOW TO MASTER LIFE, 2ND EDITION : The Science Behind "The Secret" [Thomas Troward & James Allen; Edited by Stephen Hawley Martin] Though shrouded in mystery, down through the ages a select few have known 'The Secret' to life mastery.

Now that jargon has been decoded and transformed into plain English, making the science behind 'The Secret' available to all. The works in this book arm readers with the knowledge to fully transform their lives. The techniques can be used to land the perfect job, meet the right mate, conceive the perfect child, and more.

"How to Master Life" is meant for all who would ascend to the abundant life they have the courage to imagine. { 160pp, 135x210mm, April 2007; PB, £7.99, 1892538431:9781892538437 , Midpoint Trade Books (Oaklea Press) }

POWER OF APPRECIATION IN EVERYDAY LIFE [Dr Noelle C Nelson] One of the biggest stumbling blocks we hit when setting out to make our dreams come true is appreciating what is going well. Most of us have an unfortunate tendency to dwell on the problems rather than on the good things in our lives...and then we wonder why things just seem to keep getting worse instead of better. In 'The Power of Appreciation in Everyday Life', psychologist Noelle Nelson explains how you can achieve success in every area of your life through transforming your beliefs with appreciation. The book is especially profound when it examines how appreciation can transform relationships. Relationships at work, with your family, and with friends can all prosper when using appreciation's powerful force. Appreciation is a remarkably strong untapped energy every one of us possesses. We just need to know how to use it. Science confirms that when you think and feel appreciation (not simple gratitude, but powerful valuing), amazing changes happen -- from a calming of our heartbeat and increased brain function to successful and satisfying interactions at home and at work. All it takes is a change in focus. With 'The Power of Appreciation in Everyday Life', you will discover what makes appreciation such a dynamic force and learn specific ways to use appreciation to take charge of your life and get the results you want at home, at work, and in love! { 212pp, 140x210mm, December 2006; PB, £9.95, 1897178220:9781897178225 , Insomniac Press }

YOU SHOULD HIRE ME! : Interview Secrets to Get the Job You Love [Ron & Caryl Krannich, Ph.Ds] The job interview is the single most important prerequisite to getting a job. While you may be talented in writing resumes and letters, conducting research, and networking, you simply must do well during the job interview if you want to get the job offer. But what exactly must you know and do in order to ace the interview? What questions should you anticipate and how well prepared are you to give answers that clearly emphasise your competencies and tell your story of accomplishments? And what questions are you prepared to ask during the job interview? Here is the book that examines the dynamics of interviewing for job seekers. Unlike other books that focus solely on the formal job interview, You Should Hire Met examines two critical interviews in the job search process -- referral interviews and job interviews. Referral interviews open the doors to key employers. When conducted properly, they can lead to the perfect job -- one that is the right fit for you. Indeed, if you are not doing referral interviews, reviews, you are probably conducting a lack-luster job search. Revealing the pioneering techniques of leading career professionals, this book outlines the key principles for conducting successful job interviews. Covering everything from preparation to close and follow up, it shows how to: Become "interview ready"; Recognise 26 interview myths; Deal with 8 types of interviews; Prepare for the encounter; Dress for the interview; Make positive first impressions; Engage in small talk; Respond to every question; Ask the right questions; Handle behaviour-based questions; Deal with illegal questions; Close the interview; Follow up the interview; Negotiate salary and benefits. Rich with sample dialogues and examples of questions and answers, You Should Hire Me! takes you into the offices of employers where you engage in one of the most important meetings of your life.
