What do you want to be when you grow up? "You can be anything you want to be" "Do something that you love" "Don't take no for an answer" "Find your passion and pursue it" "You have to be happy in what you do"... These are examples of some of the advice we received growing up, while contemplating our life's pursuits. This book explores one man's journey; as he literally took that advice to heart, left a promising career in radio & television, and with no safety net, made a giant leap of faith to become a professional basketball coach. As this coaching neophyte attempts to navigate the scurrilous underbelly of professional basketball, he encounters a number of fascinating characters along the way. Some of whom shape his journey and others who impede it. He becomes a fly on the wall to the swirling world around him and reports his voyage as it takes him from the comfortable suburbs of the Pacific Northwest, across the US and back; from the shanty's of Kingston, Jamaica all the way to the heaving streets of Central China. Is Rick Turner just a gullible and naïve fool, trying to fight against the well established cliché of: it's not what you know but who you know? Or is he a romantic dreamer who, by his pursuit, can possibly inspire others that may be hesitant to chase their own passion and realize that the journey can often be more important then the destination?

Sister Ignatia is the story of an exceptional woman, "the little sister" of Alcoholics Anonymous. Working with stock broker Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith, the founders of the A.A. movement, Sr. Ignatia arranged for the hospitalization of alcoholics at a time when alcoholism was seen as a weakness of character, rather than a disease. In St. Thomas Hospital in Akron, she began her crusade to aid those suffering from alcoholism and to help them become functioning and productive citizens once again. She was recognized by President John F. Kennedy for her pioneering contributions and was given the Theta Phi Alpha St. Catherine of Siena Award for outstanding Catholic women of national distinction. This is Sr. Ignatia's biography--the story of a nun who was the spiritual cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous. Her example gave Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith a living illustration of love and service that today are the hallmarks of A.A.

When Bill Wilson, with his friend Dr. Bob Smith, founded Alcoholics Anonymous in 1935, his hope was that AA would become a safe haven for those who suffered from this disease. Thirty years after his death, AA continues to help millions of alcoholics recover from what had been commonly regarded as a hopeless addiction. Still, while Wilson was a visionary for millions, he was no saint. After cofounding Alcoholics Anonymous, he stayed sober for over thirty-five years, helping countless thousands rebuild their lives. But at the same time, Wilson suffered form debilitating bouts of clinical depression, was a womanizer, and experimented with LSD.Francis Hartigan, the former secretary and confidant to Wilson's wife, Lois, has exhaustively researched his subject, writing with a complete insider's knowledge. Drawing on extensive interviews with Lois Wilson and scores of early members of AA, he fully explores Wilson's organizational genius, his devotion to the cause, and almost martyr-like selflessness. That Wilson, like all of us, had to struggle with his own personal demons makes this biography all the more moving and inspirational. Hartigan reveals the story of Wilson's life to be as humorous, horrific, and powerful as any of the AA vignettes told daily around the world.

Now available on CD, Alcoholics Anonymous "the Big Book" has served as a lifeline to millions worldwide. The essential recovery text was updated last year to include 24 new personal stories.

The author visited the archives of the headquarters of A.A. in New York, and discovered new communications between Carl Jung and Bill Wilson. For the first time this correspondence shows Jung's respect for A.A. and in turn, its influence on him. In particular, this research shows how Bill Wilson was encouraged by Jung's writings to promote the spiritual aspect of recovery as opposed to the conventional medical model which has failed so abysmally. The book overturns the long-held belief that Jung distrusted groups. Indeed, influenced by A.A.'s success, Jung gave "complete and detailed instructions" on how the A.A. group format could be developed further and used by "general neurotics". Wilson was an advocate of treating some alcoholics with LSD in order to deflate the ego and induce a spiritual experience. The author explains how alcoholism can be diagnosed and understood by professionals and the lay person; by examining the detailed case histories of Jung, the author gives graphic examples of its psychological and behavioural manifestations.
