The Equilibrium Text Series focuses on thoughts of the self, by the self and for the self. Applied Feel Theory puts into practice the elements that were discovered in Volume One on Unified Feel Theory. Recognizing that G-D is your consciousness and that You are your awareness, can only lead one to conclude that G-d and You are One. The advantage that this viewpoint offers cuts through the mystery that societys GOD of outer reality, actually indentures humanity to the whims of others and their leaders. Where can the self go for another opinion? All that society recommends is to seek it from qualified others. Why has no argument been made for seeking answers from within the self; the G-D of inner Reality? Society is not interested in your inner self, just what your outer self can do for society. In response, you should not look to society for what it can do for you, but to your self for what you can do for you. The U.S. Constitution considers you a sovereign being. These Equilibrium Texts clarify the difference between a sovereign being and you so that you can wisely discern any discrepancy and willingly opt to narrow the gap.

For each of us, life’s dilemma can be reduced to two positions: 1) The universe always existed, you exist for a fleeting moment, and the universe continues on; 2) The universe was created when you were born and it will cease to exist when you die. Both of these perspectives are absolutely true and they pose for the inquirer a dichotomous enigma. Religion, or what is purported to be so, should be involved with these two aspects; but it’s not! Unified Feel Theory is not religion, but a religious process to be experienced and struggled with by every inquiring mind; singularly and alone. Not until the quintessential self is known by its own inquiring mind, can it be of any meaningful service to its self or to others. Society has managed to intimidate and encapsulate each inner self to such a degree that only those aspects and qualities needed and wanted by the collective are nurtured and allowed to make their presence known and be seen as the outer self. The Equilibrium Texts outfit and encourage an inward journey to seek, rescue, and bring forth, one’s own inner being.

OVERVIEW All volumes of The Equilibrium Texts are primers. Their only objective is to prime the pump; not fill the bucket. That’s the reader’s challenge and responsibility. This volume on GOD is the culmination of fifty years of reflection, introspection and experience that brought about this treatise concerning God. It is the author’s concentration on the subject of religion that was brought about by three non-eventful interactions that led him to develop The Equilibrium Texts in general and this volume on GOD in particular. The first was his mother’s unclear and unfulfilling answer to the question, “What’s the purpose of religion?” Her response was, “It’s a way of life.” The second was his English teacher’s snide remark in response to his assigned written philosophy about God, “My, aren’t you being superior to judge!” And the third was from a Catholic Navy chaplain in response to two questions, “Do you believe that God is a being?” He answered, No! “Then why did you deliver a sermon as if He was?” His response was, “Because, it’s the only form of language that some people understand.” It was due to these three semi-related encounters that stimulated the endeavor to discern what significance the concept of God held. This work leads from God, to G-d, to GOD; the culmination of the search for GOD’s cosmological meaning.

"What makes the profession of social work distinctive and exciting? How do social workers differ from sociologists, psychologists, and other counselors, advocates, and helping professionals? Which degrees, licenses, and credentials can social workers obtain? And in what kinds of work, or fields of practice, can social workers specialize? All these questions are worth considering when one feels led to become a professional social worker"--

This book is designed to introduce doctoral and other higher-degree research students to the process of scientific research in the fields of Information Systems as well as fields of Information Technology, Business Process Management and other related disciplines within the social sciences. It guides research students in their process of learning the life of a researcher. In doing so, it provides an understanding of the essential elements, concepts and challenges of the journey into research studies. It also provides a gateway for the student to inquire deeper about each element covered​. Comprehensive and broad but also succinct and compact, the book is focusing on the key principles and challenges for a novice doctoral student.

Applying Counseing Theories: An Online, Case-Based Approach offers the power of the Web and the promise of a true understanding of counseling theories. Unique in product design and intellectual approach, it combines a book, interactive cases and web-based learning into one innovative product. A central goal of this product is to help readers grasp the fundamental principles that govern the application of 16 counseling theories. From Freud to Feminism, the authors distill each theory into core principles for applying each theory. Each chapter translates the formal concepts, assumptions, and techniques of the theory into user-friendly guidelines for working with clients. Reading the book, one learns the essence of applying each theory and can delve into the original theorist's work, comprehensive theory books, or eclectic counseling approaches with clarity and understanding. Each chapter is authored by a counselor or therapist who uses that particular theory as a foundation for his or her work with clients. Three compelling video cases on the companion website (www.prenhall.com/rochlen) caputure the intake interviews of three diverse clients, ranging in age from 17 to 54, and their unique presenting problems and concerns. From each theoretical perspective, users of the website are scaffolded through an analysis of the video cases to help them conceptualize each case using the foundational concepts discussed by the authors in the book. Flexible enough to support any core theories text, it is also simple enough for all course delivery modes. Using this multi-sensory approach, readers learn what therapists do, why they do it, and how basic theories can be applied in clinical settings.

This 2-volume work includes approximately 1,200 entries in A-Z order, critically reviewing the literature on specific topics from abortion to world systems theory. In addition, nine major entries cover each of the major disciplines (political economy; management and business; human geography; politics; sociology; law; psychology; organizational behavior) and the history and development of the social sciences in a broader sense.

How Change Happens in Equine-Assisted Interventions gives clinicians and researchers an intervention theory on the mechanisms of change during psychotherapy and other interventions that incorporate horses. Chapters introduce the concept of intervention theory, present a theory of the problem (what the client comes with), theories explaining the intervention (what is done during a session), and theories of change (what happens in the mind of a client), with each theory’s function described. Using an autoethnographic approach, the authors describe, deconstruct, and analyze personal experiences as clients during an equine-assisted intervention. Then the authors present and apply a unique intervention theory by linking it to the thoughts and experiences of clients in and after a session. Practitioners will come away from this book with a unique perspective on the field and with an increased understanding of what their clients are thinking both in and out of session. Researchers will have an explanatory theory from which to draw testable hypotheses when studying interventions incorporating horses.
