Book excerpt: Growing up in a time when we used kerosene lamps for light, an outhouse for a bathroom, and carried out water from the windmill into the house sounds like a hard life compared to today with all the modern conveniences. But it was all we knew. We did a lot of chores on the farm that were physically hard, tiring, and exhausting, but our life was also simple and meaningful. We raised the animals and grew the food we ate. The crops on our farm helped feed others. We lived close to relatives and knew our neighbors. This book allows me the opportunity to share my childhood memories with my children, grandchildren, and future generations- to give them a glimpse into my childhood growing up on a farm in the 1940's.

Book excerpt: Rarely do we see inside the life and mind of a psychiatrist, but that’s exactly what we get in With Hope in My Heart: Musings of a Spirited Psychiatrist. With candor and openness, author François Mai shares how and why he ventured into psychiatry, the lure of academia, and his professional triumphs and troubles along the way. Educated in Apartheid-era South Africa, Mai takes his clinical practice across five countries: South Africa, the United Kingdom, Australia, the US, and Canada. Inspired by his time and adventures in these places, as well as his greatest influences, psychiatrists William Sargant and George Engel, this memoir is for a diverse audience. Readers eager to learn more about the history of psychiatry and its contemporary problems will enjoy Mai’s commentary and professional anecdotes. Lovers of religion and spirituality contextualized in a secular society will appreciate the ways these intersect with Mai’s professional and personal lives. With Hope in My Heart is more than a psychiatrist’s memoir. It’s a deeply intimate look into the life of a man who endures the death of a brother who had life-long schizophrenia, and himself had two life-threatening medical diagnoses. With themes of hope, Mai navigates readers through tumultuous terrain of spirituality, morality, politics, life, and death.
