Cambridge Who’s Who Member Nancy Bauser Publishes a Guide to Help Survivors of Catastrophe

Cambridge Who’s Who VIP member, Nancy Bauser, is a social worker and disability life coach with the NSB Group in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. She has published a book entitled Acceptance Groups for Survivors: A Guide for Facilitators. The book is intended for use by professionals who work with survivors of traumatic brain injuries or other conditions resulting in disabilities.

In 1971, Ms. Bauser survived a head-on collision, which resulted in a severe brain stem injury. After the accident, she had to relearn how to walk, talk, think and function independently. Ms. Bauser said in an article published in the June 2008 issue of Psychology Today that she believed the secrets to her success were not seeing failure as an option, maintaining determination while accepting temporary setbacks to position herself for future success and refusing to capitulate to helplessness. This allowed her to be ambitious and accomplish the goals she had set for herself. Written in a straightforward manner, Ms. Bauser reaches out to other survivors through Acceptance Groups for Survivors to help them continue with their lives.

With its basis in personal experience, the book also presents a systematic method on how to help victims of catastrophe. Ms. Bauser has developed an approach that facilitators, social workers, psychologists and rehabilitation personnel can use to aid those who have suffered similar physical traumas. She has designed a structured group program, helping survivors to accept their deficits, so they can begin recovery.

Frank Farelly, a former clinical professor, author and internationally known psychotherapist says that Acceptance Groups for Survivors is a well-organized, compassionate and realistic guide. Others have also described it as a “user-friendly guide that asks all the right questions” and is “most interesting.” Her book relays the message that recovery is making progress, giving her peace and the ability to be content with her life and limitations.

After her severe and life-threatening brain injury in 1971, Ms. Bauser made more than a full recovery. She went on to earn her bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan in 1973 and master of social work from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1976. Ms. Bauser also became a member of the Academy of Certified Social Workers in 1984.

Moran was recently chosen for the Cambridge Who’s Who List, a professional resource used for networking and mentoring purposes that recognizes the accomplishments of individuals that have made a distinct place for themselves in their careers.
For Moran, this career path has taken her from a farm in Venice Center, literally, to all over the world.

It was through her older brother, Mike, that Moran said she found her inspiration.

“This is no lie,” Moran said. “When I was 12, I knew what I wanted to be. I wanted to be a Marine, and I still have a deep respect for the marines. My brother had joined, and when he came back from basic training, I saw how it had matured him; it had taken a teenager and turned him into a man. I knew at an early age that was what I wanted to do.”

Author House Publisher Unveils Book Three in 20th Century Trilogy by Eyewitness Cambridge Who’s Who Author Thomas Becker

“The Race For Technology: Conquering The High Frontier”, the third and final book in an eyewitness Technology Trilogy about major emerging technologies in the 20th century, was released for sale in bookstores and for direct purchase from the publisher, it was announced by Cambridge Who’s Who author Thomas W. Becker of Pottstown, Pennsylvania. The first two books in the trilogy, “Eight Against the World: Warriors of the Scientific Revolution” and “A Season Of Madness: Life and Death in the 1960s,” went on sale in the last half of 2007.

The Trilogy is a focus on emerging technologies discovered in the 16th and 17th centuries. These technologies later are set against the backdrop of the global Cold War as well as other major cultural events in America and around the globe. Becker was an eyewitness to many of these events in one way or another; as a photojournalist or a space technology educator in the United States and in Europe. As an on-site witness, he captured the essence of events whenever possible in pictures, published for the first time in all three books.

Book 1 “Eight Against the World: Warriors of the Scientific Revolution” introduces the geniuses of the Renaissance, whose difficult work in astronomy and physics led civilization to the technologies of the 21st century and the cultures we enjoy today. This book describes the everyday lives of hardship and heartbreak suffered by men like Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler and Newton as they labored to redefine the universe and humankind’s place in it. Becker sets the stage for the Industrial Revolution and the 19th and 20th centuries’ ages of invention and technology. (Available both in hardbound and paperback editions)

Book 2 “A Season Of Madness: Life and Death in the 1960s” is a look back at that chaotic decade of the Cold War turned hot. Included are descriptions of the fight for Berlin, the knife edge of nuclear war in the Cuban Missile Crisis, the multiple assassinations of our political leadership, the rioting and burning of whole cities, the killing of college students in the Kent State Massacre, the international race for the moon, and the assault on Mars. Intertwined with new technologies is a review of the sudden collapse of America’s treasured value system and a new design of cultural morality that still plagues us today. (Available both in hardbound and paperback editions)

Book 3 “The Race For Technology: Conquering The High Frontier” highlights some of the new technologies discovered during the 1970s through the 1990s including the Soviet-American “handshake in space”, the continued assault on Mars, encounters with Halley’s Comet, the Chernobyl nuclear incident and more. Also included are descriptions of numerous international civilian technologies. (Available in paperback edition only)
