41 Signs of Hope
by Dave Kane
On February 20, 2003 fire broke out at The Station, a nightclub in West Warwick, Rhode Island. Some 100 people died and 200 were injured. The youngest victim was Nicholas O'Neill, 18. In the ensuing months his family and friends have beeen awed and touched by a series of unexplainable events; many based on the number 41. That number was one of great significance in Nicky's life, and the events shared in this book leave no question that life endures, Nick is still a part of their lives, and he loves them more than ever.

and listen to the interview
by Jeffrey Kane, Ph.D.
"As a novice, a traveler in the open world with only a rare glimpse of a signpost or trail, I stack the words as totems for those who follow," Dr. Kane writes in the preface to Life As A Novice," "...The few words I've found, I share in the hope that those awakened to life beyond the wall of physicality and the gates of birth and death see that others have passed this way, and wandered on." According to Time magazine essayist Roger Rosenblatt, "Jeff Kane's poems have the brevity and the power of Emily Dickinson's, but they come from a different endurance. They make you weep and clap. Mainly, they make you feel."
Swallowed by a Snake: The Gift of the Masculine Side of Healing
by Thomas R. Golden

The material presents a fresh look into the uniqueness of a man's grief in a way that both men and women will find extremely helpful." - Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, M.D. (taken from back cover, Golden Healing Publishing)
