The Shattered Curtain
Fresh out of medical school, a young doctor applies to the U.S. Army Medical Corps, expecting a safe posting and a chance to serve. On a routine form, he reveals he reads and speaks Russian. Within days, his life is changed forever.
Flagged by military intelligence, he is invited to have dinner with two men who vaguely share they are “with the Department of Defense.” What begins as an interview becomes recruitment. What begins on land races toward open water and pulls him into a covert Cold War operation no one can know exists.
Fast-moving and packed with suspense, this high-stakes spy thriller delivers a clandestine adventure on the high seas where secrets kill, loyalty is lethal, and one man’s knowledge could tip the balance of the Cold War.
The author, Dr. Robert Warren Conroy, was formally a diplomat of the American Board of Psychiatry and N
urology, trained at Walter Reed General Hospital, Washington, D.C., during the Vietnam era and before the demise of the Iron Curtain.
The Myth Of No Big Deal
When parents divorce later in life, the world often shrugs: They’re grown. It’s no big deal. But for adult children—and for the family as a whole—it can be a seismic shift.
This book by Wendy Fisher House, Ph.D., a psychologist with training in both clinical and social psychology with more than forty years of experience, is appropriate for adult children, parents, families, and professionals working with clients impacted by later-life divorce.
Organized into five accessible parts, this comprehensive guide explores:
The cultural and developmental context of “gray divorce”
Why parents divorce later in life—and what they may not see about its ripple effects
How an adult child’s age and life stage influence grief, loyalty conflicts, and identity
Essential tools for navigating boundaries, compassion, anger, and healing
Practical pathways toward new parent-child relationships and new family formations that may be healthier than those left behind.
Leadership is Love, A practical guide for a radical idea
What if the most powerful leadership strategy isn’t authority, control, or charisma—but love?
Licensed psychologist Dr. Christopher Leonard delivers an honest, courageous call to lead differently. Drawing on years of clinical insight and real-world leadership experience, he challenges the traditional playbook and replaces it with something far more effective—and far more human.
Through engaging stories, lived experience, and easy-to-digest steps, Dr. Leonard shows how leaders can move beyond fear-based management. He demonstrates that while organizations invest heavily in structural tools—policies, metrics, corrective actions—the true drivers of performance are relationship tools: empathy, appreciation, listening, trust, and understanding.
