Reviews and Commentary for Yesterday I Cried: Celebrating the Lessons of Living and Loving
What is the lesson in abuse, neglect, abandonment, rejection? What is the lesson when you lose someone you really love? Just what are the lessons of life's hard times? Bestselling author Iyanla Vanzant has had an amazing and difficult life -- one of great challenges that unmasked her wonderful gifts and let to wisdom gained. In this simple book, she uses her own personal experiences to show how life's hardships can be re-languaged and re-visioned to become lessons that teach us as we grow, heal, and learn to love. The pain of the past does not have to be today's reality. Iyanla Vanzant is an example of how yesterday's tears become the seeds of today's hope, renewal, and strength.

Reviews and Commentary for Childhood Stress (Wiley Series in Child and Adolescent Mental Health)

The publisher, John Wiley & Sons:
The first section examines the two aspects of stress, psychosocial and biological, and their interactions, covering the effect of stress on the developing brain, the neuroendocrine substrate of stress reactions psychosomatic reactions and psychological symptom formation. The second section examines specific stressors encountered at each developmental stage, age-typical methods of responding to stress and special stress pitfalls. The third considers specific stressors such as divorce, parental death or illness, abuse, poverty, discrimination and social violence. Finally, the fourth section examines risk and protective factors in assessment of stress as a basis for prevention and treatment. With a wealth of actual case material, it is solidly documented, amply illustrated with tables and figures, yet sufficiently non-technical in presentation to appeal to the widest possible readership.
