DSM-K for Kepele
DSM-K for Kepele is a witty, one-of-a-kind fusion of psychiatry and Yiddish culture from the mind of Dr. Jolie Pataki, a psychiatrist with over 30 years of experience-and a Jew for more than twice as long. Through the humorous lens of her alter-ego, Dr. Fackacta, she offers a fresh (and hilarious) take on mental health diagnoses, replacing clinical jargon with the most accurately descriptive language ever spoken: Yiddish.With tongue-in-cheek "disorders" like Kvetch Disorder, Plotz Attacks, and Folie-A-Jew, Dr. Pataki pokes fun at the quirks of human nature, psychiatric practice, and cultural traditions alike. Whether you're a mental health professional, a lover of Jewish humor, or just someone who appreciates a good "oy vey," this book delivers insight and laughs in equal measure.Packed with cultural references, clever definitions, and compassionate wit, DSM-K for Kepele is more than a parody-it's a celebration of the richness (and ridiculousness) of human behavior. Read it, share it, and maybe even self-diagnose-at your own risk, of course.
Dancing with Chihuahuas
For all of you out there who enjoyed reading my previous book Watching the World, this is what you've been waiting for!Dancing with Chihuahuas is somewhat of a follow-up, packed with plenty more of my anecdotal stories from here, there and everywhere. There's tales garnered from my travels, incidents experience when walking round the supermarket, an insight into a few rather strange job interviews I've had over the years, a tale about staying in a bed and breakfast, and, of course, one of my favourite subjects: the great British public and what they manage to get up to in restaurants! There's even stories of what happened when I was just minding my own business (a rare occasion, I hear you say).For those of you who have not read Watching the World (not that there can be many left who haven't), after you have read this book I can thoroughly recommend giving it a go. It offers a more in-depth look at certain subjects from my own point of view, whereas this book tends to skim the surface of what people really get up to when they think no one is watching. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this book, and that you get as much pleasure from reading it as I did compiling and writing it. And one last thought for you... If something should happen to you during your day - however trivial - and you thought no one was watching... trust me, they were!

Roll to Hit: An Unofficial History of Dungeons and Dragons
"It might be unauthorized, but this book sure is comprehensive. This isn't just a book about a game. The author focuses on the people who created it and expanded it over the decades as well as the people whose contributions have been hidden in the shadows. A richly detailed, exciting, and frequently surprising history." -BooklistRoll to Hit: An Unofficial History of Dungeons and Dragons is a deep dive into the story behind the world's most popular tabletop roleplaying game. From its humble beginnings in a basement in a house in a small town in Wisconsin, through the Satanic Panic and the boom and bust of the 90s, all the way to a modern resurgence that has seen the game become a true pop-culture phenomenon, the book tells the tale of the people who have shaped D&D through every step of its development. But more than that, it's a story of leaps of imagination, of shocking circumstances and tragedies, of conflicts and comings-together both on the table and off. From HG Wells playing with toy soldiers to multi-million dollar movie deals, from early war simulations to crazy homebrew campaigns, the book explores the history of D&D and asks why, even after all this time, its name remains a shorthand for the tabletop roleplaying experience. As Dungeons & Dragons reaches its fiftieth birthday, and with the game is as popular as it's ever been, regular players, old school gamers and newcomers are going to find something here to excite and entice. After all, without them, without the players, there'd be no Dungeons & Dragons at all.

Enhancing Business Thinking through Checkers & Chess
I have had the great privilege of being able to follow the achievements of a childhood friend, Harm Wiersma, and we later met in Spain. He was a 6-time world champion and is the perfect example of what can be achieved with the attributes of the game of checkers in business, politics, academia, and our societal careers. In that sense, he stands at a higher level than Ton Sijbrands, who is solely focused on the game. On the other hand, Wiersma was not only a player but also a businessman and even a member of parliament in The Hague for a political party. In the conversations I had with him, the word "drive" always emerged. I will attempt to present the attributes that are improved through playing checkers, and there are many. Both of us have been able to utilize these attributes in our societal careers. While discussing these attributes, Wiersma's name comes up many times. Hopefully, this first part will be an inspiration for young checkers players and chess players.
