Dr. Randy Frost is a professor of psychology at Smith College and an internationally known expert on obsessive-compulsive disorder, compulsive hoarding, and the pathology of perfectionism. What possesses someone to save every scrap of paper that’s ever come into his home? What compulsions drive a woman like Irene, whose hoarding cost her her marriage? Or Ralph, whose imagined uses for castoff items like leaky old buckets almost lost him his house? Or Jerry and Alvin, wealthy twin bachelors who filled up matching luxury apartments with countless pieces of fine art, not even leaving themselves room to sleep? Randy Frost and Gail Steketee were the first to study hoarding when they began their work a decade ago; they expected to find a few sufferers but ended up treating hundreds of patients and fielding thousands of calls from the families of others. Now they explore the compulsion through a series of compelling case studies in the vein of Oliver Sacks.With vivid portraits that show us the traits by which you can identify a hoarder—piles on sofas and beds that make the furniture useless, houses that can be navigated only by following small paths called goat trails, vast piles of paper that the hoarders “churn” but never discard, even collections of animals and garbage—Frost and Steketee explain the causes and outline the often ineffective treatments for the disorder.They also illuminate the pull that possessions exert on all of us. Whether we’re savers, collectors, or compulsive cleaners, none of us is free of the impulses that drive hoarders to the extremes in which they live. For the six million sufferers, their relatives and friends, and all the rest of us with complicated relationships to our things, Stuff answers the question of what happens when our stuff starts to own us. www.ocfondation.org

Bernie Ilson, the Sullivan show's P.R. man for eight years, takes us on a trip down memory lane to revisit one of the most popular shows in television history, in his new book Sunday’s With Sullivan. Ed Sullivan, who could not sing, dance, or act, was TV's greatest showman in its early years. For 23 years, from 1948 to 1971, he hosted America's premier variety show every Sunday night on CBS, on which he introduced an eclectic array of talent that included everything from opera singers to dancing bears to Elvis Presley and the Beatles. Few people, however, appreciate the sizable cultural impact Sullivan's show had with regards to its commitment to color-blind booking and "high culture" acts. This book is an inside view of The Ed Sullivan Show and the unusual story of one of the most unlikely television stars who played host to such diverse talents as Van Cliburn, Rudolf Nureyev, Robert Goulet, Richard Pryor, and The Rolling Stones. Buoyed by interviews with producers and executives, Ilson continually returns to the same few points: high culture bits were popular, but in small doses; Sullivan was not a great host, but a fantastic booker; and Sullivan's success was largely due to his experience in news media. With his distinctive nasal voice, Sullivan regularly promised audiences a really big show and delivered by offering up virtually every form of twentieth-century entertainment.
John R. Taylor Naturopath is currently the CEO and president of Natural Wellness Centers of America Inc. and is the author of the bestselling book “The Wonder of Probiotics” published by St Martin’s Press. He has been interviewed on syndicated radio shows and been quoted in national and international magazines. Why Do I Keep Getting Sick? Doctor Reveals How Antibiotics May Be Keeping You Ill. It’s happened to most everyone at least once. We get sick, go to the doctor, and get a prescription antibiotic. In a week, the infection is gone, but we still don’t feel well, and we sometimes wind up getting sick again with a different infection. Dr. Taylor explained that as we use antibiotics, the strains of infection adapt and mature to be resistant to the antibiotics we use. The World Health Organization stated in its World Health Report 1996 that “too few new drugs are being developed to replace those that have lost their effectiveness. In the race for supremacy, microbes are sprinting ahead. That phenomenon is not surprising to Dr. John Taylor, a naturopath and author of The Wonder of Probiotics www.nwcnaturals.com
