|  | Say Goodnight to Insomnia by Gregg Jacobs
Imagine an insomnia treatment that improves sleep in 100 percent of insomniacs, helps 75 percent of insomniacs become normal sleepers, and allows 90 percent of insomniacs to reduce or eliminate their use of sleeping pills. This treatment is safe, natural, and has no side effects except improved mood, higher energy, increased mind/body control, and better health. No, this is not a new miracle drug. It is Dr. Gregg Jacob's drug-free program described in SAY GOODNIGHT TO INSOMNIA. At Harvard Medical School's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Dr. Jacobs has tested and developed a six-week, drug-free program that conquers insomnia in a large majority of patients. The first clinician to offer proof that insomnia can be overcome without drugs, Dr. Jacobs's program provides techniques for: Eliminating sleeping pills; Establishing sleep-promoting habits and lifestyle practices; Changing negative, stressful thoughts about sleep; Implementing relaxation and stress-reduction techniques; Enhancing peace of mind and reducing negative emotions.

 | How to Practice Brief Psychodynamic Psychotherapy by Howard E. Book
How To Practice Brief Psychodynamic Psychotherapy: The Core Conflictual Relationship Theme Method is a clinically based and clinically illustrated manual that walks the reader through the development of the Core Confilictual Relationship Theme (CCRT) focus that is necessary to practice this specific form of brief psychodynamic psychotherapy (BPP). The CCRT method is a research-supported, easily operationalized, valid, and reliable form of conducting a strongly interactive form of brief therapy. The CCRT method offers symptom relief and limited but significant character change in a 16-session format that focuses on and helps the client work through one crucial, circumscribed area of maladaptive personality style. Small changes in this one behavioral theme, or dimension, have been seen to be associated with larger more pervasive shifts in functioning. After presenting general background about the BPPs and specific discussion of the CCRT rationale and process, author Howard E. Book offers the reader a unique analysis of CCRT therapy in action. In an extended clinical vignette, the reader may follow therapist and client in a step-by-step manner, from initial session; to therapist formation, articulation, and representation of the CCRT; through the tripartite 16-session course of therapy itself; and, finally, to termination and follow-up. This book will be of use to four major audiences: first, those clinicians - regardless of their basic theoretical alliances - currently practicing long-term therapy, who wish to gain knowledge of the BPPs and expertise in practicing the CCRT method itself; second, directors of postgraduate psychology programs or mental health training centers, as well asdirectors of psychiatric residency programs, who are searching for a lively, clinically rich textbook; third, for the many students in such programs who are in need of a general explication of the BPP and of an engaging text about a specific form of it; and fourth, to all clinicians in s AUTHOR: Howard E.
