'Genograms Assessment and Interventions' is a textbook for counselors, therapists and other related professions. The textbook is written by Monica McGoldrick, Randy Gerson, and Sueli Petry. This book will show you how to make a genogram while learning the terminology and the symbols that go into your project with individual and group clients. The reader will learn to listen more effectively to a person or family history to get to the nitty gritty of the issues and problems that are affecting individuals and families. Chapter 10 was my favorite for it dealt with Play therapy to do with children and parents as well as with the geriatric patients. This was a textbook that was included in the intensive one-week course entitled 'Introduction to Marriage and Family'. In that course I only read what was pertinent to my final project, but in re-reading the textbook now it was a fascinating book for it covered many famous people throughout history.

Who remembers?
Who remembers using or playing with a Viewmaster? I had the original as well as a talking one that allowed you to hear the story as well as view it. Remembering to always click the lever down to advance the little disc that had the images, and with the talking one clicking the lever down at the tone of the beep. I remember having mine and I would watch for hours for my parents always got me more little 'movies' to watch on this 'toy' and also a lot of batteries to go along with this toy. To me FUN!

Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
