| Another excellent book by Dr. Amen, which is so fascinating about how the brain works and how with the newest diagnostic tools, it can be "tweaked" so our lives can be the best they can be. Very interesting read. Dr. Amen was a welcomed guest on my Internet radio program, Coping with Caregiving. Jacqueline Marcell, Author, Elder Rage |

| The history of Sigmund Freud's approach to the mechanisms of the mind has exhibited some tumultuous changes over the past century. Norman Doidge reminds us that Freud developed a thesis about the mind's plasticity over time. Freud's psychotherapy - irrespective of some questionable methods - was designed to allow the mind to search within itself and change outward behaviour by identifying memories hidden or repressed. However, after Freud, researchers using diagnoses of stroke or brain-injury victims, "mapped" ... Read More: |

| Dale Carnegies How to Win Friends and Influence People has been a classic for decades, but it is still as fresh as when it first came out. Filled with knowledge, anecdotes and tips, it is suitable for anyone wishing to brighten up his own life and the lives of those around him.
How to Win Friends and Influence People touches upon many subjects. As expected, Carnegie starts by giving some basic principles to keep in mind when dealing with other people. It the subsequent chapters, he then builds upon these statements ... Read More: |

At first glance, the title of Dan Ariely's book seems to be an oxymoron. (It certainly catches one's attention.) Can irrational thought and/or behavior be predicted? Perhaps if it is repetitive? (The judgment and behavior of at least some people can be repetitive and thus predictable.) So I began to read his book with curiosity but also, yes, with some skepticism. Here are a few of my reactions. First, he learned a number of "lessons" from what he calls "experiments" in his life, each of which struck him as being counterintuitive. ... Read More: |

| Not that I'm an expert in the subject, but I'm guessing that this isn't your typical success book. In many ways it's a general purpose psychology book, dealing with such things as motivation, organizational skills, and how to deal with stress. It's chock full of seemingly unique information, and interesting quotes and tidbits. For example, it states "Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success; leadership determines whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall." The book isn't boring or repetitive, and is written in a pleasing, conversational ... Read More: |

| Tremendous book,
I have taken to quoting it as well having employed it in my day to day business. I developed my company's raison d'etre by following the recommendation and allthough I always used story telling as a way to get my points across I no longer feel embarrased about being hokey or "rube-ish" Frankly this is the only book I have read (and re-read) in years which I can truly state made changes to my life. |

| If there was ever a book that could change your life, this is one of them. It's so practical, insightful, intelligent, and useful. It has had a big influence on myself, and on my outlook on life. I love the way the authors (Dr's Greenberger and Padesky) use complete and incomplete thought records to "teach" the reader how to do it for him/herself. It has truly been of great help to me in recognizing my own patterns of distorted thinking as well as the "alternative/balanced" thinking which has helped to improve my mood on several occasions. I consider ... Read More: |

| And we all market. If not a product then ourselves.
This is a well written book that holds the interest throughout. The volume of research behind it is huge and the ability to precis it so well deserves praise. A book to explore for marketing tips and for tips to avoid marketing traps. Best of all it is a good read. |

| In this book, Gladwell does a great job of explaining the tipping points of trends, fads, disease, etc, -basically any event imaginable. If we look close enough in our everyday lives we'll see the tipping point. After reading this book you should be able to see where it is exactly (almost) that mistakes are made, or good decisions are made. Great read -an eye opener for sure! (The idea is what attracts me as opposed to those that rate a book on the writing style, etc, especially for this style of information book.) |

| This book is only for those who do not want to live in the land of the hopeless. If you love feeling like you're at the end of your rope, that life is not worth living, and you enjoy the fatigue that comes with depression, then this book is not for you. This book is only for those who want to be released from the shackles of discouragement, from feelings of failure, and from the numbness and listlessness that results from having given up.
You should only read this if you've had enough of feeling lousy. Moreover, it comes with a CD to guide you through the practice sessions, ... Read More: |
