Hidden forces—memories of past poor or hurtful relationships—drive repressed feelings and emotions that are often outside our awareness. Though we want to love and be loved, to nurture and be nurtured, those forces can wreak havoc and cause relationship sabotage, destroying couples and even whole families. The scenario is so common, explains therapist Matta, that often people get divorced without even fully understanding why, or what is was that came between them. In many cases, what it was were the lingering but unconscious memories of lessons learned as far back as childhood. These lessons may have no true bearing or justification in the current relationship, yet they can strongly affect it, fueling marital games, extra-marital affairs, addictions, poor parenting practices and a host of other harmful actions. Matta argues that we can learn to recognize these imprints and move past them to build or keep rewarding relationships. His book makes us aware, and gives us the tools to break the cycle.

Teaching children involves more than knowing your subject and being able to maintain control of a class. Every child that comes into the classroom is unique. All have different home environments, ethnic backgrounds, abilities and learning styles. And every child develops a different relationship with the teacher. "Enhancing Relationships Between Children and Teachers" focuses on the complexity of the child-teacher relationship and how school psychologists and counsellors can help teachers understand the myriad factors involved in their classroom relationships. Pianta uses systems theory to discuss the multiple factors in child-teacher relationships and integrates school, clinical and developmental psychology. The book is organized according to the ever-expanding circle of systems discussed: from the individual child's personality as a "system" to the individual child-teacher relationship, multiple relationships in the classroom, and finally school policy's influence on the child-teacher relationship. Clear, informative text and rich case examples show how to apply this approach for improving child-teacher relationships in any classroom situation and make this a valuable read for all helping professionals working with children.

Why do so many of us avoid this intimacy at all costs? What examples from Scripture might guide us in developing a close, prayerful relationship with God? In Seek My Face, William A. Barry, SJ, provides thoughtful and easy-to-understand answers that can help anyone draw closer to God and grasp the surprising breadth of ways in which we and God can become good friends.Throughout the book, Fr. Barry introduces situations and personalities from both the Old and New Testaments to show readers the various ways in which people in the Bible drew closer to God. Abraham, Moses, the Psalmist, Peter, Jesus these individuals and more help readers see the many different ways we, too, can interact with God, and how confidently expressing to God our deepest emotions and most honest thoughts is exactly what the Divine desires from us.As Fr. Barry encourages us to follow the Ignatian idea of seeing ourselves in the Bible stories and experiencing each Scriptural situation as if we were there, we grow increasingly comfortable seeing God as a friend. In the end, Fr. Barry gently turns us away from our ambivalence or even fear of a relationship with God and toward a desire to seek God s face at all times and in all ways.
