| A book about memory? Mnemonics, eh? Dull stuff...
WRONG!!! This is just about the most engrossing scholarly work I have ever read. Quite apart from displaying a masterly grasp of her subject, which is far more interesting than I would have believed before reading the book, Yates throws fascinating light on a number of seemingly unrelated topics: the Roman art of rhetoric, the architecture of the Globe theatre, the foundations of Renaissance syncretism, the rise of the scientific method, ...

| Howard Gardner is a man of many minds. The Harvard psychologist, MacArthur "genius grant" recipient and prolific author started a revolution when he claimed that human capability couldn't be reduced to a single metric. Rather than accepting IQ as the whole story of cognitive capacity, Gardner said people have "multiple intelligences," a notion he popularized in his 1983 book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligence. Twenty-five years later, Gardner is still producing influential work on human ... Read More: |

| If you have bpd, you must buy this book. Written by someone who really has been there and seen it all, this is a wonderful, compassionate and extremely thorough account of all aspects of the disorder. As someone with severe bpd, I have laughed and cried my way through these pages ;). It takes you through diagnosis, causes, historical thinking, case studies, scientific background, treatments and offers great advice for individuals and their families. I cannot recommend this book enough, almost certainly all you ... Read More: |

| I've read many memoirs of mental illness in my life and I truly believe this one is the best. It's gripping, moving, well written, and a great source of hope and inspiration.
It must have taken an incredible amount of courage to write a book like this. Rachel doesn't shy away from showing the uglier sides of borderline personality disorder, and many reviewers have dismissed her as a "spoiled brat". However, I was impressed by her strength and determination in overcoming her problems, and her guts ... Read More: |

| 46.Emotional Design: Why We Love (or Hate) Everyday Things by: Donald A. Norman April 20, 2005 |

|
| As lately I became interested in design (computer interfaces, human-computer interaction), I enjoyed this book. The first part of the book put my thoughts into a new perspective, and clarified some of the issues I had after finishing the User Interface Design course (M873) at Open University. But then, the second part of the book didn't impress me that much. To be served better by robots we should give them feelings like anxiety and pride!?? That maybe worked for the science-fiction writers decades ago, in my childhood, ... Read More: |

| I just started using this book a few months ago and I really recommend it to anyone suffering from childhood trauma and also the loved ones of those suffering from it as the principles are really important for recovery. So far I have been dealing with so many issues that I never understood but now I can finally understand and take positive steps towards recovery. It most likely will evoke some painful memories but just know that it is part of the healing process. I am so glad i bought it. |

| I have suffered with anxiety and panic attacks for over ten years and this has been the most helpful book that I have found. It helps give an understanding of panic and suggests ways to help yourself.
It is also good for those around you to read to help them relate to your situation. Plus, it is a nice 'compact' book, unlike those that are large and sometimes therefore intimidating. |

| 50.Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Psychiatric Problems: A Practical Guide (Oxford Medical Publications) from: OUP Oxford June 29, 1989 |

| This is one of the finest books that I have ever read. It is invaluable for both an introduction to CBT and as a handbook for experienced researchers and clinical professionals. I cannot rate it too highly. Whilst I would not normally use a book published in 1989, this book is so good that this is not really an issue. |
