For a racing enthusiast, what could be more fun than travelling around the beautiful Emerald Isle visiting all of the racecourses and interacting with the amazingly friendly Irish people! The book though is of interest not just to mad racing folk but to anyone interested in travel and particularly visiting the stunning Irish countryside and enjoying a much quieter pace of life than on the British side of the Irish Sea. There is a chapter for each racecourse giving information about its history and geographical location. Some racecourses are not easy to find despite their size and there are suggestions as to the best way to get there and even on more mundane issues such as parking. The best features of each course are highlighted along with the occasional disappointing aspect. Details of race meetings attended at each are described in some detail and the overall experience is evaluated. Travelling around Ireland is a big part of the book with the amusing events that occur. Various attractions/places of interest near racecourses are mentioned so the trip to Ireland has quite a bit more to offer than just racing. The friendliness of the Irish people is a recurring theme along with the lovely welcome they always give you at pubs, restaurants, hotels and coffee shops. In summary, the book confirms that racing in Ireland is great fun or as the Irish say good craic and it seems many racing aficionados this side of the Irish Sea are totally oblivious of this and need to go to Ireland to find out just what they are missing.

Like life itself, marriage has moments of joy...and sorrow. As difficult as marriage can be, many who have said "I do" try to stick it out when problems arise because the alternative--being alone--is not very appealing. If the couple truly wants to save their marriage, they usually turn to counseling.Unfortunately, most marriage counseling ends with the couple dropping out and then, more often than not, ending their relationship. In some cases, the problem is not the couple but their choice of counselor. One who is poorly trained, disinterested, or obviously biased can destroy a marriage.Why Marriage Counseling Fails explores different scenarios that cause problems for couples as well as the different types of counselors who can help or harm a marriage. Dr. David B. Hawkins has more than forty-five years of experience as a marriage counselor and has helped thousands of couples save their marriages."Sadly, when it comes to reaching out for help for marriage counseling, few have a sense of trust and confidence in their counselor," he says. "Stories abound about how they came out of a counseling session worse than when they went in."Dr. Hawkins defines the "five I's" of a qualified marriage counselor as one who: Offers wise instructionTakes an active interest in the coupleOffers insight into why problems recurIs willing to work intensivelyWorks in-depth to help the couple find long-term solutionsWhy Marriage Counseling Fails offers insights into marital issues, the brokenness of the counseling system, how to find good help, and how to insist upon effective help when turning to a counselor.
