&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve been using Jin Shin healing touch for just over one year. I find the main central flow exercise most helpful for balancing and awakening my energies in the morning. It&rsquo;s a great way to begin the day! I also benefit from using holds and touches for specific issues on an &lsquo;as needed&rsquo; basis. I found the book to be a clear, concise, and easy reference. In my view, Jin Shin and similar meridian treatments may be our best friend in times of emergency.&rdquo;

Rachel Billington discovered Maria's Chilean journals in the London Library and, using Maria's own words, in a voice so witty and intimate, so utterly human, she makes an already gripping story even more so because of the powerful presence of Maria whispering in our ears. A wonderful story and a terrific way of discovering more about a previously unknown corner of history

Advance praise for Not Me&#8220;What a daring, even dangerous, act of the imagination this novel is! Not Me challenges one emotionally and intellectually. It&#8217;s that rare phenomenon: a philosophical thriller that will draw you in and leave you arguing furiously with yourself after you&#8217;re done.&#8221;&#8211;Ron Rosenbaum, author of Explaining Hitler &#8220;A novel with a powerfully unsettling moral conundrum at its heart: Is radical evil indelible; can anything undo it? But what philosophy cannot resolve, storytelling triumphantly can. Lavigne&#8217;s radiantly imagined portrait of human possibility never obscures the blackest abyss of real history, and his Heshel Rosenheim emerges with all the complexity of a modern Raskolnikov.&#8221;&#8211;Cynthia Ozick, author of Heir to the Glimmering World&#8220;Michael Lavigne has an immensely powerful story to tell of guilt and redemption. Beyond its riveting plot, Not Me is a novel about the loss and recovery of love. In this sense it reminded me of Dickens&#8217;s Great Expectations: Heshel Rosenheim is as mysterious and haunting as Magwitch, and the lesson that his uncanny life imparts to his son, and to Lavigne&#8217;s readers, is on a grand human scale, and unforgettable.&#8221;&#8211;Jonathan Wilson, author of A Palestine Affair &#8220;Family secrets, awful historical truths, the nature of good and evil, and the bond between a son and his father are woven seamlessly into a page-turning plot. Michael Lavigne writes with generosity of heart and he leaves the reader with an abundance of hope. Not Me is a powerful debut novel.&#8221;&#8211;Binnie Kirshenbaum, author of An Almost Perfect Moment &#8220;A disturbing yet surprisingly tender read that grips the reader from page 1 and never lets go. Michael Lavigne tells his intriguing story with intelligence, sensitivity, and flashes of scintillating wit. What more could you ask from a novel?&#8221;&#8211;Aaron Hamburger, author of Faith for Beginners

Not Me

It's a model of empty-space theatricality. Four actors create - with no props or sets - a vulgar, vibrant, Friday night world of hairdressers, urinals, northern club action and back-street shagging... Its physical exuberance exhilarates audiences.

Cool, Calm & Contentious

&ldquo;A gift for the time-harried, food-particular cook: a shopping and cooking plan for meals that can be prepared in advance to carry you deliciously through the week. It&rsquo;s not only the recipes that are inspiring, but also the organizing rambunctiousness and confidence-embuing enthusiasm of the authors. Rich in ideas and hand-holding pointers, this is a book that makes itself immediately indispensable.&rdquo; &mdash;Nigela Lawson&ldquo;I want to hug this book! It&rsquo;s like one long pep talk from your best friends who know everything about good food and always keep their cool in the kitchen. Amanda and Merrill guide you through the process of making beautiful home-cooked dinners&mdash;from menu planning to grocery shopping to reheating leftovers.

It&rsquo;s genius."&#160;&mdash;San Jose Mercury News"You will forget all about GrubHub as soon as you delve into this photo-driven book that divides the chapters by base dishes, to be made over the weekend, with a foolproof formula of how to stretch them over the week in a variety of innovative ways.
