Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So, what would Mary Ann do? As the sweet, polite, and thoughtful Mary Ann Summers from Kansas in the hit series Gilligan’s Island, Dawn Wells created an unforgettable and beloved character that still connects with people fifty years from the show’s debut in 1964. As the “good girl” among the group of castaways on a tiny island, she was often positioned against the glamorous and exotic Ginger Grant, played by Tina Louise, prompting many to ask: Are you a Ginger or a Mary Ann? This book not only helps readers answer that question for themselves but also sends the inspirational and heartwarming message that yes, good girls do finish first. Part self-help, part memoir, and part humor—with a little classic TV nostalgia for good measure—What Would Mary Ann Do? contains twelve chapters on everything from how Mary Ann would respond to changes in today’s culture to addressing issues confronting single women and mothers. Wells brings along her fellow characters from Gilligan’s Island to illustrate certain principles, such as incorporating the miserly Thurston Howell III (Jim Backus) in a discussion on money. Anecdotal sidebars also describe fascinating facts and compelling memories from the show, as well as some trivia questions to challenge fans and followers. Illustrated with photographs from Wells’s private collection, this book provides inspiring lessons from TV’s favorite good girl.

Book excerpt: One of the most important forms of communication--intuition--is often overlooked or misunderstood by many people. In The Gift Within Us, author Mary Ann Bohrer explores the subject of intuition through interviews with scientists, paranormal researchers and 33 highly gifted intuitives from around the world who share their stories in individual profile chapters. Ultimately, we learn that every individual has access to this amazing divine wisdom simply by listening to our own inner voice. The process is simple, but the rewards are profound. According to research, people are increasingly identifying themselves as "spiritual but not religious," yet they don't know how to satisfy their yearning for greater spiritual connection and understanding. In this insightful and groundbreaking book, the author outlines six simple steps to accessing our own inner voice, so that each and every one of us can tap into this incredibly powerful form of communication and divine guidance, The Gift Within Us. About The Author Mary Ann Bohrer is a PR professional, communications specialist and intuition advocate who has interviewed some of the most gifted intuitives in the world. She has also interviewed top scientists, psi researchers, academicians and even a leading Catholic Archbishop regarding the topic of intuition, and shares her findings in The Gift Within Us that each and every one of us--regardless of religious affiliation, or whether they identify as religious at all--has access to this amazing and life-changing gift, simply by listening to our own inner voice. Editorial Reviews "In The Gift Within Us, Mary Ann really captures what it's like to be a psychic medium, and this book shows us how to listen to our own inner voice. This intelligent book will help many people appreciate and access the spiritual world." James Van Praagh, Spiritual medium and author of Talking to Heaven, Adventures of the Soul, and The Power of Love "This direct connection has always been available to all of us. Some receive this guidance through prayer, some through meditation, and others by simply listening to their inner voice. We all have access to divine wisdom - it's just a matter of knowing and trusting that we are loved and worthy of receiving that guidance." Archbishop Harry J. Flynn, former Archbishop Emeritus of the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis "The evidence is in - intuition is real and it exists within all of us to various degrees. Mary Ann has written a powerful and engaging book that documents real life evidence for this precious gift, and underscores the benefits of listening to our own inner voice." Gary E. Schwartz, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Medicine, Neurology, Psychiatry and Surgery, University of Arizona and Author of Super Synchronicity, The Afterlife Experiments and The Sacred Promise "Most people have had one or more extraordinary intuitive or transcendent experiences, but we quickly learn not to talk about them. They feel strange and otherworldly, so we're concerned how others will react if we tell them our stories. This is why Mary Ann Bohrer's The Gift Within Us is such a gift. It helps to break the paradox of common experiences that no one wants to talk about, and it reminds us that these experiences are real, normal, and valuable. Highly recommended!" Dean Radin, PhD, Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) and Author of The Conscious Universe, Supernormal and Real Magic

Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of the generation-defining series The Baby-sitters Club comes a series for a new generation! Well, we all had to do it. Write our autobiographies, that is. And this is mine. I dug way back in my memory and came up with lots of stories. There was the fateful time in kindergarden when I didn't know whom to invite to our Mother's Day tea party. There was the time I desperately wanted glasses, and of course there were the adventures with my friends Kristy and Claudia. But mostly I remember my father, because he's always been there for me. Always and forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That ours is a time of intellectual, cultural, moral, and religious turmoil does not need to be argued. What does need to be argued, and what Glendon argues with force and freshness, is that our response to turmoil requires a greater honesty in coming to terms with tradition, and with traditions in conflict. That is little understood by many on both the political left and right. Quoting one of her favorite thinkers, theologian Bernard Lonergan, she urges us to be "big enough to be at home in the both and old and new; and painstaking enough to work out one at a time the transitions to be made." Working within the capacious structure of the Christian intellectual tradition, most reflectively and generously articulated in Catholic teaching, Glendon constructively engages alternative ways of thinking about what it means to be human and what is required to nurture a society worthy of human beings. As the reader will see, her work ranges far and wide, and it goes deep. There is hardly a subject she addresses that does not change the way we think about it. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Mary Ann Glendon is Learned Hand Professor of Law at Harvard Law School and President of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. She teaches and writes on international human rights, comparative law; and constitutional law issues. She is the author of many books including Rights Talk, A Nation Under Lawyers, and most recently A World Made New: Eleanor Roosevelt and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
