Three months later, Amy is standing outside Helmshill Grange, a sullen monstrosity of a house, deep in the Yorkshire moors.

Every mom wants the best for her son. She wants him to succeed in life, to be a man of character, to find a good woman, to be a great dad. But sometimes boys are hard for moms to understand. Sometimes they're strange, annoying, and downright disgusting! Yet always they need a mother who is engaged and interested in them, because a mom is the most important person in a boy's life. In What a Difference a Mom Makes, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Kevin Leman uses his wit and wisdom to show Mom how to lay the groundwork that will allow her son to grow into a good man. Armed with Dr. Leman's expert advice and insight, Mom will gain an understanding of her boy at every stage, from that very first diaper change to the moment he leaves for college. Dr. Leman shows how to discipline a boy, how to command respect, how to let him fight his own battles, how to understand his sexuality, and how to weather the changes in the mother-son relationship as he grows up. Most of all, Leman shows Mom how to lighten up and have some fun along the way with that boy who will always have her heart.

Yet when her boyfriend's betrayal costs her both her dream job and her reputation, she retreats to her brother's rural home in Indiana to heal and figure out the rest of her life.

He is a man on the edge, haunted by war and a lost love, who finds solace in a bottle -- until a job offer from his former commander provides a glimmer of hope, and a second chance for the future. Paige has always avoided brooding bad boys like Ryan, yet he might be exactly what she needs, while Ryan, the man who thought he had nothing left to live for, is tempted to risk his battered heart one last time...

Even though the osteopathic profession is over 100 years old, very little literature has been available to assist the public in better understanding osteopathic medicine. Perhaps this is the primary reason many persons cling to "old wives tales" in their concept of this uniquely American medical profession.It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to relate in a few brief pages the history, nature, philosophy, methods, and processes of development of any profession and do it justice. Therefore, perhaps this effort to introduce once again osteopathic medicine to the public will encourage others to articulate their insights into osteopathic medicine and complement the work of ones who have tried.This book is written by a layman for the lay reader. Much of the information has been gleaned from the few written sources available and from personal taped interviews with more than thirty persons in the osteopathic profession and ones related to it by employment and dedication. Some of the information has not previously been widely disseminated to the public. Nonetheless, it is a documented part of the osteopathic story.The remainder of the information in the book reflects the author's observations and opinions based on years of experience with, appreciation for, and commitment to the osteopathic profession.The author hopes The Difference a D.O. Makes will make a positive difference in the public's understanding of osteopathic medicine.Bob E. JonesOklahoma City, OklahomaAll proceeds from the sale of this book go to the Oklahoma Educational Foundation for Osteopathic Medicine, whose primary function is to assist osteopathic medical students with low-interest loans.All inquiries regarding the purchase of this book should be directed to the Oklahoma Educational Foundation for Osteopathic Medicine (OEFOM), 4848 North Lincoln Boulevard, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, 73105-3335.
