Should we seek questions instead of answers? Three very different stories show where unanswered questions can lead. Can a business that just asks questions make millions? Can random questions change a man? Can one photograph evoke the right questions? These three un-churchly stories ask these questions and more. What do a recession, a hurricane, and a picture have in common? Some people search for the right question, or never ask questions, or raise many questions. All lead to surprising outcomes. But maybe not answers. Not all questions have answers, but questions lead the people in these three very different adventures to more questions.
The counsellor who enables your dreams to become reality - at a price; the oh-so-persuasive freelance interrogator whose sub-legal techniques ensure dramatic results; an unsung writer, standing in at a gala when the big name doesn't show; the on-call priest who specializes in clerical emergencies; a painter and her assistant who each tell a different truth about their relationship; and a refugee whose life is transformed by a pair of boots. What could possibly connect these unique characters and their stories? Why, the obscure, some would say camouflaged, building in which they work.Six stories told with perceptive wit and humour, Inquire Within makes the unlikely appear possible, the imagined become reality.
In the second month of his year-long sabbatical in 1999, newspaper editor Tim Brown finds himself facing a collection of conundrums (conundra?). Something is up with his Aunt Stella, the powerful politician, something is amiss on a hiking trail, and something is not quite up to snuff with a junior reporter. All is very curious.
Newspaper editor Tim Brown's sabbatical year continues to offer new challenges. Something unexpectedly triggers a long-buried emotional memory, raising difficult questions. His growing skill at delving leads him to question truths and accept falsehoods, and to consider when a loss can be a gain.
What's the difference between a delver and a private detective? Tim Brown is about to try to find out, as a challenge lands on his desk. It's the reverse of a locked-room puzzle, since not just a room but a whole building seems to have disappeared.
In his fifth month of 'delving' during his year-long sabbatical in 1999, newspaper publisher Tim Brown realizes something odd is going on that may impact him and his business. And it may relate to the much bigger, and possibly darker, 'Project Sweetland' that he and his team at the newspaper are looking into. Can he move forward in directions he had not anticipated, despite pugnacious opposition?
In his sixth month of 'delving', Tim Brown finds himself drawn back into newspaper work more and more, while surprises emerge close to home that threaten to upend his life.
Newspaper publisher Tim Brown is in the seventh month of his sabbatical year, 1999, which has turned into a year of 'delving' and solving mysteries. He and his friend, Rob, take a rare vacation out of the province and a remarkable opportunity comes up for Rob. It is so very good...might it be too good to be true?
What makes Nova Scotia home? Why do we sing about her sea-bound coast when we're far off, or move to the province 'from away'? What draws us and keeps us? And do all who live here feel at home?Sculptor and writer Jan Fancy Hull talked with born-heres and moved-heres from Yarmouth to Glace Bay to find out what brings them here...or pushes them away. Responses to an online survey share the voices of many more people who find Nova Scotia a very special place.Come take the road home.
Ett storslaget familjedrama i vilket två unga syskon förlorar sin far och mot sin vilja får flytta in i biskopsgården."Det hindrar inte att jag vill gråta.

Det blir ingenting."Fanny och Alexander (1983), nr 30 i serien Filmberättelser, presenteras med förord av författaren och efterord av Jan Holmberg.
Dette er en ressursbok for alle som er interessert i drømmer. Mye tyder på at vi forstår drømmene våre best når vi ikke er fastlåst i psykologiske teorier. Forfatterne viser hvordan drømmeren selv kan forstå sine drømmer. Nyere drømmeforskning har vist at drøm er en form for ubevisst tenkning, og i drømmene våre finner vi ofte kreative løsninger på problemer vi tumler med. Boken gir mange gode eksempler på det forfatterne kaller hverdagsdrømmer, verdidrømmer og temadrømmer -- drømmer som leseren vil kunne kjenne seg igjen i. I boken fremheves at drømmer også kan brukes i behandling og i forebyggende og helsefremmende arbeid. Dette gjelder både barn, ungdom og voksne. Paul Jan Brudal er psykologspesialist. Han har vært sjefpsykolog ved flere psykiatriske sykehus og er i dag selvstendig praktiserende psykolog. Han har gitt ut flere fagbøker i psykologi. Dr. philos. Lisbeth F.

Alec John Dawson (1872 - 3 February 1951), generally known as A J. Dawson (pseudonyms Major Dawson, Howard Kerr, Nicholas Freydon) was an English author, traveler and novelist. During World War I he attained the rank of Major, and was awarded the MBE and Croix de Guerre in recognition of his work as a military propagandist. Dawson published over thirty books, the one best remembered today probably being the animal adventure story Finn the Wolfhound (1908). He used the pen-name Howard Kerr for his first published novel, Leeway (1896). Further publications as A J. Dawson soon followed: two collections of short stories (Mere Sentiment and In the Bight of Benin) and two novels (God's Foundling and Middle Greyness) in 1897 alone.
