Fear of public speaking is the highest rated of top ten fears listed in "The Book of Lists". The fear of public speaking is even listed ahead of the fear of death! This book will help anyone who suffers even a little nervousness when faced with a public speaking situation. But it is designed to specifically assist those of you who are too terrified to overcome your fears to speak in a public situation. Webster defines white knuckle speaking, or speaker's fear as "laliophobia". I call speaker's fear the "Tiger", for it is something to be respected and feared, but with enough patience and training, it can be tamed. This book is both a "KNOW HOW", and a "CAN DO" book that addresses solid public speaking fundamentals. It contains new fear reduction and confidence building techniques for you to use to eliminate your speaker's fear. You may also use it as a reference book, to benefit from its unique and powerful speech preparation structural information, as well as its many fear reduction techniques. You have all heard the old adage that sometime you get the "Tiger", and sometimes the "Tiger" gets you. This book is about, how to get the "Tiger"!

Nicole's story of incest survival is purposed to support the path toward peace for those that may be in the thralls of this type of abuse or may be many years removed from their abuse experiences. Speak Incest Out Loud® will mentor readers in identifying actual and potential prey, survivors, and vile predators. Whether a frightened victim, an angry survivor, a family member of someone victimized, a teacher or church congregant, there is a message and teachable moment for you. The authors show us that there are many participant roles in the cycle of incest both directly and indirectly. Identifying these team players, as the writers call them, is an important component of the healing process. Nicole believes that deliberate confrontation of personal truths and removing personal masks which kept secrets living in the shadows were two of the many stepping-stones along her path toward healing. The purpose of Speak Incest Out Loud® is to enable survivors in rescuing the frightened child hidden deep within who has been awaiting your healing so they may be delivered into the light, to freedom, and into a life of joy and peace. This book lives up to its name and will teach you how to overcome fear, self-doubt, low self-esteem and will truly help you speak incest out loud. —Sharon Skinner, Phenomenal Peace Book Club Reading Speak Incense Out Loud had me on the edge of my seat as I became emotional for the little girl that the writer came back and rescued. The book teaches its readers the signs of abuse and how to be aware of the predators who linger in the shadows. I highly recommend this book. —Crystal Edwards Owner of I Care Daycare and CEO of Brystal Visions Inc.

DIVDIVFor the first time, four German WWII pilots share their side of the story./divDIV/divDIVFew perspectives epitomize the sheer drama and sacrifice of combat more perfectly than those of the fighter pilots of World War II. As romanticized as any soldier in history, the WWII fighter pilot was viewed as larger than life: a dashing soul waging war amongst the clouds. In the sixty-five-plus years since the Allied victory, stories of these pilots’ heroics have never been in short supply. But what about their adversaries—the highly skilled German aviators who pushed the Allies to the very brink of defeat?/divDIV/divDIVOf all of the Luftwaffe’s fighter aces, the stories of Walter Krupinski, Adolf Galland, Eduard Neumann, and Wolfgang Falck shine particularly bright. In The German Aces Speak, for the first time in any book, these four prominent and influential Luftwaffe fighter pilots reminisce candidly about their service in World War II. Personally interviewed by author and military historian Colin Heaton, they bring the past to life as they tell their stories about the war, their battles, their lives, and, perhaps most importantly, how they felt about serving under the Nazi leadership of Hermann Göring and Adolf Hitler. From thrilling air battles to conflicts on the ground with their own commanders, the aces’ memories disclose a side of World War II that has gone largely unseen by the American public: the experience of the German pilot./div/div

Coyote Speaks describes the strengths, the strategies, and the resilience a therapist needs to work successfully with alcoholics and addicts. It reports what a therapist sees, hears, smells, and feels in the midst of treating those yet to achieve sobriety, those recently sober, and those with years of recovery behind them. In the Navajo cosmology, those possessed by Coyote are neither inherently evil nor morally lacking, but like alcoholics and addicts they suffer from a malady of the soul as much as the body. The provocative humor of Coyote stories illustrates the mercurial and quixotic nature of the alcoholic and addict in treatment, while evocative case histories from the author's private practice reveal the humanity behind a disease that binds two individuals in a struggle toward honesty, humility, and sobriety. Coyote Speaks explores the darkness of alcohol and drug addiction, the humility we accept when we acknowledge our limitations as therapists, and the redemption we witness as we attend to a disease that is at best treatable. It is about caring enough, sometimes too much, and about knowing when to let go. It is about the importance of examining the trickster in each of us, and it is about listening, when Coyote speaks.
