Book Description
In his book, Dr. Mellow, a physician and clinical researcher, makes the case for faith, religiosity, and spirituality as important practices providing significant physical and mental health benefits. In reviewing the extensive medical literature, he concludes that faith and spiritual practices have significant positive effects on the incidence of the most common physical illnesses (heart disease, hypertension, many cancers, and most importantly, on overall mortality) as well as mental illnesses (depression, anxiety, addiction, and suicide). Given the record levels of diseases of despair in America today, especially in our younger generations, the health benefits of faith and spirituality should be of considerable interest to all of us. Dr. Mellow reviews the emerging medical literature on the effects of the major faith teachings, that of compassion, on our body’s functioning at the basic cellular level. Compassionate practices result in positive changes in our gene function, decreasing the activity of the harmful inflammatory disease-causing genes, and decreasing the rate of aging of the cells in our body. There have always been reasons for the dislike or distrust of established faiths. Throughout history, many major atrocities have been committed in the name of religion, as they have at the hands of atheistic regimes. Sadly, that is human behavior. However, while one can find fault with some faith leaders and practitioners, faith teachings are difficult to fault. Given the health and societal benefits, Dr. Mellow presents information on how one might choose a faith community best suited for you and your family.

Book Description
Set in a small village in Cambridgeshire, Margaret recounts her dramatic conversion in 1970, which led to her heart and her home being open to sixty-five people in forty-five years. Led by God, Margaret and her husband, Tony, moved from three to six and then ten bedrooms to accommodate their growing family. Their Liquorice Allsort residents added great richness to their lives. During their early Christian life, their son was killed in a road accident which, far from crushing their faith, made them stronger than ever, and their witness resulted in a small revival in their Anglican church. Eventually, in 1982 they made room in their hearts for many more people when, controversially side by side, they pioneered and pastored a lively and successful Charismatic church for twenty-five years .It was prophesied that they would be like two Shire horses pulling a plough. Margaret clearly heard God speak and direct her to minister to others and to trust God for everything from her own clothing to buying houses. As a result, she is very keen to teach others how to hear God for themselves. It has always been Margarets aim to love God and love people, whatever the cost.

Sharing Lives explores the most important human relationships which last for the longest period of our lives: those between adult children and their parents. Offering a new reference point for studies on the sociology of family, the book focuses on the reasons and results of lifelong intergenerational solidarity by looking at individuals, families and societies. This monograph combines theoretical reasoning with empirical research, based on the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). The book focuses on the following areas: ● Adult family generations, from young adulthood to the end of life, and beyond ● Contact, conflict, coresidence, money, time, inheritance ● Consequences of lifelong solidarity ● Family generations and the relationship of family and the welfare state ● Connections between family cohesion and social inequality. Sharing Lives offers reliable findings on the basis of state-of-the-art methods and the best available data, and presents these findings in an accessible manner.

Book Description
With a growing population, rising housing costs and housing providers struggling to meet demand for affordable accommodation, more and more people in the UK find themselves sharing their living spaces with people from outside of their families at some point in their lives. Focusing on sharers in a wide variety of contexts and at all stages of the life course, Shared Housing, Shared Lives demonstrates how personal relationships are the key to whether shared living arrangements falter or flourish. Indeed, this book demonstrates how issues such as finances, domestic space and daily routines are all factors which can impact upon personal relationships and wider understandings of the home and privacy. By directing attention towards people and relationships rather than bricks and mortar, Shared Housing, Shared Lives is essential reading for students and researchers in fields such as sociology, housing studies, social policy, cultural anthropology and demography, as well as for researchers and practitioners working in these areas

One year later, she opened Beauty and the Book, the world's only combination beauty salon/bookstore. Soon after, she founded The Pulpwood Queens of East Texas -- a reading group that dared to ask the question, "Does a book club have to be snobby to be serious?" The idea spread like wildfire. Now there are about 70 chapters nationwide. The overriding rule -- aside from wearing the club's official tiara, hot pink, and leopard print outfits -- is that the groups must have fun. The club's mission: To get America reading. THE PULPWOOD QUEENS' TIARA-WEARING, BOOK- SHARING GUIDE TO LIFE celebrates female friendship, sisterhood, and the transformative power of reading. It includes life principles and motivational anecdotes, hilarious and heart-warming stories of friendships among the Queens, and stories from Kathy about the books that have inspired her throughout her life, complete with personalized suggested book lists.
