Space Between The Stars
In the '70's and 80's South Africa is torn apart by racial hatred.There is a restlessness among the young coloured generation who, unlike their elders are prepared to fight the oppressive apartheid laws to bring about justice. Elizabeth is the beautiful and feisty daughter of Karel and Miemie Apollos farmworkers on the wine estate Tweefontein. Disturbed by her parent's passive acceptance of the discriminatory laws, she joins a protest march where she meets Robert Booth an activist from the United Kingdom. They fall in love but love across the colour line is forbidden and in a night of turmoil they flee South Africa. Emmy is the child they leave behind. She changes the lives of those who are inadvertently drawn into her world. Haunted by her past Emmy overcomes grief and tragedy to find the answers she seeks in a Post Apartheid South Africa.
Navigating Intimate Relationships
This book spotlights the complexities of relationships, drawing on theories that have guided relationship scholars, classic studies, and current research- juxtaposed with the current Indian milieu.

It also touches on multiple types of relationships in the 21st century, such as mixed families, singles, live in, living apart together (LAT), role of dating apps, and so on.This book would be useful to the students, researchers, and teachers of Psychology, Applied Psychology, Mental Health, Sociology, Family Studies, and other allied disciplines.

Boomers Out of the Box
Social engagement is an essential component of healthy aging, and there are roughly 16 million single Boomers who may want to focus on relationship building, dating, and second chances but don't know where to begin. Most Boomers have not dated for years or even decades. What methods can be employed to find potential partners or platonic friends? How do seniors effectively utilize online dating services? How do want-to-be daters overcome their fears of engagement and rejection? What types of relationships are individuals seeking, and how do they prepare to establish and make them sustainable? What about sex and intimacy, issues that may eventually play important roles? Seniors are living longer than ever. After reaching 65 years old, average males can expect to live to 83 and females to 85. That's roughly 20 years and represents almost a third of an adult lifetime. It's critical not to squander this significant and precious time left, acting as though the game is over. There are so many ways to make the golden years fun and productive, to reset thoughtful goals, and pursue new dreams. Given the myriad changes currently taking place in society and technology, not only can the modern senior be busily engaged in childcare for their grandchildren, volunteer work, sports, and hobbies, but they can start new businesses, travel on senior tours, enroll in online and traditional educational courses, join physical fitness programs, find a new love, and participate in a million other activities. We Boomers have shocked and annoyed the establishment since day one. We have questioned authority and refused to play by the legacy rules. We have rebelled against traditional gender roles, brought marijuana into the mainstream, and revolutionized sexual norms. So why stop now? As seniors, we may feel invisible to younger people, but do we really want to go quietly into the night? Nobody is looking at us, so let's break out of the box - again! Why not? Let's go out on fire. Let's do stuff.
These Changing Roads
Shirley Johnson's poetry captures essential pieces of the journeys, experiences, and relationships that carry us through the years of our lives. She writes about universal themes of family, friendship, aging, and trying to make sense of it all using vivid images and rich descriptions of people, places, and things -- all undergirded by an unexpected blend of wry humor and unaffected tenderness. Her lines never tell us what to think or how to fee. Rather, they evoke deeper levels of thinking and feeling that are likely to stay long after a first reading of her little book. Indeed, her words may call us back again and again to reconsider, to rethink, and to refeel the twists and turns of our own changing roads.
