I received a first of it's kind email the other day from a marketing representative of the W.W. Norton Publishing Company. The email explained that they just published a book titled "Genograms: Assessment and Intervention, Third Edition" and the representative suggested it may have application to the genealogy community. At first I was a bit skeptical because this is a Psychotherapy text book, but as I looked at the table of contents (near the bottom of the linked page), the chapter titles seem to indicate there may be some application to genealogy. I figure it might give us another way of analyzing all those gigabytes of family tree data we have stored on our hard drives.
I replied with my address and she will send me a complementary copy. I have no clue whether or not the book will apply to genealogy, but hey, I will get a free book and a blog post out of it.
Update: I just learned I wasn't the only genea-blogger asked to review this book...oh well...and I thought it was because of the keen insight in my writing! ;-)
