In communities where little or no mental health care exists, people with mental conditions are at risk for increased illness, stigma, and abuse. Their fundamental right to mental health and happiness can be compromised. In Mental Health Care in Settings Where Mental Health Resources Are Limited, author Pamela Smith MD presents a handbook for community and hospital-based health providers who work in remote or impoverished areas in developed and developing countries. Designed to be used as a concise, easy-reference source, it provides an outline of core concepts and basic interventions in mental health care. This guide addresses conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, substance abuse, dementia, child and adolescent issues, violence, and HIV/AIDS and mental health. Smith also provides insights on the recent state of mental health care worldwide and the means for increasing access to care in resource-limited areas. Mental Health Care in Settings Where Mental Health Resources Are Limited communicates how providing mental health care training to health workers and raising awareness among other individuals within these challenged communities serves as a significant means not only to improving access to care but also to preserving human rights and dignity.

Mark Time: A Gospel for the Hurried is a collection of meditations on the shortest and oldest gospel in the New Testament. The 61 reflections here retell Mark’s rapid-fire action story of Jesus of Nazareth from the perspective of faith and also from the perspective of contemporary stresses. With introductory and concluding comments, the text points to the way in which the teachings and actions of Christ are as relevant to the challenges of the 21st century as they were to the situations of people living 2,000 years ago. Those who have 15 or 20 minutes a day can plan on a two-month journey with the Lord and his Good News.

This collection of 20 poems is spoken in the voice of a character named Rosa Celestina Morales, a 17 year old Puerto Rican girl living in South Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in the early 1970s. Rosa''s hopes and dreams, frustrations and torments are expressed in a mix of street talk, self-mumbling, and phrases from familiar prayers in Spanish, imported from the Spanish Mass and the first 20 psalms. The content is drawn from the author''s own experiences during the year she lived in Rosa''s neighborhood as well as from stories she heard and people she met around the neighborhood. Several of these poems have appeared previously in the New York Quarterly, Cimarron Review, and Woman Song III. This is the first time the set of 20 have been collected in book form. The work is framed as a poetic memoir. A prose introduction by the author and an afterword in Rosa''s voice round out the series of poems and project what Rosa''s life might have turned to some forty years later.

This book is about a woman fighting for justice, her cry silenced. An inmate, abused, raped, whose cries were ignored. I took my fight to the streets with a Grand Jury Petition, after begging the District Attorney in Tulsa for help. From prison walls I took on the battle to stop prison rapes. I begged for help but my voice was not heard because of the Silent Coalition. The State Driver Examiner that raped me was never charged, being represented by the State of Oklahoma Attorney General''s office. I took my fight to Washington, to no avail. I grew up in Cushing, Oklahoma. My parents worked in the cotton fields. I am the seventh of eight children, the baby girl, a Child of God, married to a wonderful man, mother of one, Maurice, grandmother of one, Kyante. I owned several beauty shops. I love fighting for inmates'' rights and am a proud fighter for civil rights. I love Gospel music. I stand on faith and God''s word. My book was inspired by the pain and suffering that life dealt me.

To enter into the Gospel of John and John''s three letters is to embark on an adventure, the story of a great and unsurpassable love, the Love that John discovered was God''s name. In following Jesus, John discovers that there is indeed an edge and urgency to what Jesus says and does. The edge is this: we, too, can be light. We can believe. We can drink the living water. And the urgency is present as well: we are also called to follow and serve. We are called to receive the Spirit. A Journal of Love is meant to be an encounter, a felt sense of what it must have been--and can be now--to live that love.

The premise of Awakening to the Spirit Within is that all beings are connected by a spiritual energy which forms the essence of who they truly are. Eight paths, which facilitate an awakening to this essence, are explored: Native American Spirituality, Taoism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Kabbalah, Jesus and the Christ Within, Sufism, and The New Thought Movement. Practice exercises and references are also included. This book highlights some of the unique gifts which various spiritual traditions have to offer our world. In addition, it explores the mystical threads of connection which underlie them. Like the title suggests, it also gives ways of listening to guidance from within. The author includes messages from her own inner guidance in an effort to illustrate how this may occur. Her openness provides more warmth and intimacy than is usually found in such a book. In these uncertain times, there has been an upsurge of interest in books related to spirituality, religion, and mysticism. People are looking for ways to heal, rather than destroy, our planet. That is why this book, and others like it, are so timely and important in moving us closer to our shared goal of creating a more peaceful and harmonious world.
