Jeffrey's Journey: Healing a Child's Violent Rages
Author:
From birth, it was clear that Jeffrey was not a typical child. By age three he exhibited such severe behavioral problems he was considered a danger to other children. No daycare would take him, and doctors were more stymied than helpful about his extreme aggressiveness and compulsiveness. Threatened with institutionalization for her six-year-old son, Debbie Jeffries resorted to an unusual therapy: marijuana. A conservative Christian, she had no experience with the drug, but extensive research convinced her this might be her last hope.
Jeffrey's Journey powerfully describes the desperate journey of a family toward a semblance of normalcy, including the court battle defending Jeffrey's right to this unconventional treatment, the family's media exposure and the threat to Jeffrey's ongoing care by federal raids on California's medical marijuana dispensaries.

Hot Guide to Safer Sex
Author: Yvonne Fulbright
The Hot Guide to Safer Sex is an entertaining and down-to-earth approach to making sex both safer and steamier for you and your partner.
With AIDS and STDs reaching epidemic proportions, practicing safer sex is becoming increasingly important-yet less than half of young adults use protection consistently during sexual intercourse. Stigmatized as "unsexy," safer sex and erotic romps are considered mutually exclusive.
Enter Yvonne Fulbright, New York University Sexuality instructor and bonafide "sexpert." Fulbright tackles the subject in a thorough, Generation Y-friendly book that includes quotes and stories from the author's extensive circle of friends as well as insightful tips on making safer sex passionate. Written in a hip, lighthearted tone, the book is packed with accurate information and the latest sex research findings.
Library Journal
This comprehensive guide for younger heterosexual singles packages cautionary details with charming enthusiasm. Fulbright, a doctoral student in international community health with a master's in human sexuality, begins with sexual anatomy, response, and orgasm basics, proceeds to masturbation and fantasy, and follows with a chapter on relationships. Then, temporarily postponing the "good stuff," she segues into STDs, AIDS/HIV, contraception, and safer sex. Eventually come intercourse positions, oral sex, and manual stimulation, plus less common topics: talking dirty, phone sex, interfemoral and gluteal sex, G-spots and multiple orgasms in both sexes, sex toys, and the PC muscle. Two final chapters warn against drugs and alcohol. Also included are informative illustrations and sensuous photos. The book is light on resources, providing mainly web sites and 800 numbers, and sources for research quoted are not given-not a major flaw for this audience. Other, broader manuals appealing to the same group include Sari Locker's The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex and Paul Joannides's Guide to Getting It On! Recommended for public libraries with a large singles clientele.-Martha Cornog, Philadelphia Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
