Religion abounds in the world. Why do Christians seem so set on the idea that there is no other way to God but their way? In the ancient book of Colossians of the New Testament there is a short four chapter presentation that addresses this most controversial question. Each section of the book focuses on a relationship with God and an awareness that religion is not enough. In He Must Be The One the author Dr. Dino Pedrone presents in very practical terms a presentation of the uniqueness of the person and work of Jesus Christ that helps the reader to stay focused on what is really important in our Christian walk. If Jesus is not the one, then religion must diligently be pursued to find a relationship with God. However, if Jesus is the One, it opens a new world to a relationship not just with God but with people. Dr. Dino Pedrone is the ninth president of the historic Davis College in the Greater Binghamton, New York area. A veteran of more than forty years in ministry and a sought after speaker around the world, he is the author of more than twenty books and booklets. His insightful teaching is heard on radio and television. Dr. Pedrone is dedicated to training men and women in the ministry. He is the recipient of the Israel Film Festival Humanitarian Award, an honorary member of Delta Epsilon Chi, and numerous other awards. He and his wife Bobbi live in the Greater Binghamton area and they have four children and three grandchildren.

Immigration in Psychoanalysis: Locating Ourselves presents a unique approach to understanding the varied and multi-layered experience of immigration, exploring how social, cultural, political, and historical contexts shape the psychological experience of immigration, and with it the encounter between foreign-born patients and their psychotherapists. Beltsiou brings together a diverse group of contributors, including Ghislaine Boulanger, Eva Hoffman and Dori Laub, to discuss their own identity as immigrants and how it informs their work. They explore the complexity and the contradictions of the immigration process - the tension between loss and hope, future and past, the idealization and denigration of the other/stranger, and what it takes to tolerate the existential dialectic between separateness and belonging. Through personal accounts full of wisdom and nuance, the stories of immigration come to life and become accessible to the reader. Intended for clinicians, students, and academics interested in contemporary psychoanalytic perspectives on the topic of immigration, this book serves as a resource for clinical practice and can be read in courses on psychoanalysis, cultural psychology, immigrant studies, race and ethnic relations, self and identity, culture and human development, and immigrants and mental health.
