Psychiatry and metaphysics blend together in this fascinating book based on a true case history. Dr. Weiss, who was once firmly entrenched in a clinical approach to psychiatry, finds himself reluctantly drawn into past-life therapy when a hypnotized client suddenly reveals details of her previous lives. During one hypnosis session his client introduces the spirit guides who have been her soul therapists in between lives. This is when the story really takes off for Weiss, who discovers that these guides have specific messages about his dead son as well as Weiss's mission in life. No, we cannot verify the truth of this story using the limited scientific tools we have available. However, it is hard to dispute that this well-respected graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School has discovered a personal truth that has led him to be an enormously popular speaker, author, and leader in the field of past-life therapy. --Gail Hudson
Book Description
As a traditional psychotherapist, Dr. Brian Weiss was astonished and skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas that seemed to hold the key to her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks. His skepticism was eroded, however, when she began to channel messages from the "space between lives," which contained remarkable revelations about Dr. Weiss' family and his dead son. Using past-life therapy, he was able to cure the patient and embark on a new, more meaningful phase of his own career.

Absolute BEST book I have ever read, period........2007-10-07
Fantastic book! I have given away 10+ copies of this book and each person has been blow away by the content. We would all be better people if we take this information to heart and lead a clean, honest life.
Many Lives Many Masters.......2007-10-04
I am very satisfied with this book on tape! I do past life regression for my clients and it's really nice to have an expert in the field that I can learn more from.
Many Lives, Many Masters.......2007-09-23
It was not so much the regressions into the past lives but the "rest periods" that interested me. The emphasis on teaching and helping spirits learn to change their flawed characters, in preparation for their next lives, confirmed some theories I had. From observation of spirit visits I know there are at least two laws: If you tell unwanted visitors to go away, they must obey. And they do not speak to us living. They do speak among themselves. My husband's spirit visits me at least twice a day. I talk to him but he cannot respond. If he could, I would have everything out of him in ten minutes because there is so much I want to know about the afterlife, and it must remain a mystery. Why, I do not know. He did answer one question: I asked how he was, and he wagged his hand in the comme si, comme ca gesture. According to Brian L. Weiss, Masters help those who are in need of guidance. Perhaps that is what my husband is doing, though I dare not presume he is on a high plane. Still, I might add one more facet to Weiss's thesis. Other, more evolved, spirits and not necessarily Masters, also teach. My husband brings home other spirits, some very primitive types who were probably clueless in life. I know he has befriended them. I found confirmation of my thoughts in Dr. Weiss's book.
Good reading...but I had some problems.......2007-09-23
First I "read" this book via an audio book version. I think Dr. Weiss is totally believable in his honest search to help Catherine. I think his approach will open many minds to explore or widen their religion/spiritual belief systems. Although I have some problems with some details contained in the book, I do think he has been a great help to those who are dying & their families.
The issues that I had problems with: 1. The MALE voice of the Masters...do
the "learned" ones always have to be male!! Perhaps the Masters used a male voice since they told him they were channeling their knowledge for him & not Catherine. With his cultural & belief system, a male voice would be more effective for him to consider the teachings. BUT not for me!! I would be more apt to listen a little more closely to a FEMALE Master; 2. the term "god" is mentioned 2-3 times toward the end of the book...It just seems like it should have been introduced earlier to me and 3. There is no mention of "WHO" or "WHAT" conceived Reincarnation plus its level system. I found that a big omission.
Fabulous Insight & Resource.......2007-09-09
This book has been invaluable to me over the years and I've read it time and again. Weiss lets us into the "inner circle" of therapy and shows us how ordinary people can experience physical and emotional pain from unresolved issues in another lifetime. Read this book and you will never look at your life and challenges in the same way again. It provides hope and courage and is a must-read for anyone seeking wholeness and understanding. Many Masters, Many Lives gave me the insight essential to my own novels of karma and past lives, in particular Field of Destiny.

This will probably sound like an informercial.......2007-07-28
touting the "latest fad", but the methods that Ms. Ponder suggests in her book have worked for me. This time, last year, I was struggling. My life was in a mess - financially disarray. I was just out of school. Even though I had gone through four years college and graduate school, I couldn't find a permanent job anywhere. I couldn't even get a temporary job, even though I was signed up with four or five different agencies. At that point, I was desperate enough to try any line of work, at that point, but no one seemed to be willing to take a chance on me, so I ended up home. Last year, around this time, I was literally broke.
But, through some stroke of luck, I ran into Catherine Ponder's books on this site. I decided to check Dynamic Laws of Prosperity out from a library, along with some other books. Little did I know how much her books would change my life. I discovered it was my constant focus on lack that was the basis of my problems.
People might say Ms. Ponder's methods are simply "positive thinking." But it's more than that. It's not just about experiencing prosperity in your bank account, it really affects your whole life. She writes about incorporating daily list making, affirmations, tithing, visualization, etc; in her work. You have to be consistent though, which isn't always easy. You have to do it daily -- never missing a day. That's the hard part. Not everyone's willing to commit that time to make the changes they want.
For the first four months -- little happened. Then I received my first temp job in months. I worked for several weeks there, and did well. Unlike my last job, where I didn't receive work, even after performing satisfactorily, I received yet, another temporary job.
I worried that my prosperity was drying up after the second job, when I received no more temp job offers. Little did I know, that I would receive an interview within two weeks for a job I had literally applied for months before. I had given up on that job too. But, within a few days I was hired for the position, which I just started this week.
I've also gotten back in touch with an aunt I'd lost touch with. We literally hadn't spoken in years. We've reconciled around my birthday around the same time my prosperity was increasing, and it's one of the best things that's ever come out of studying Catherine Ponder's work.
Not everything is perfect. I still have work to do on a lot of areas of my life, but it's still so much better than the misery I was experiencing around this time last year. I'm richer than I've been in a long time. And I'm setting my goals on even higher goals. :)
If you watched "The Secret" this can supplement what you've learned in that DVD, because it gives you specific techniques. If you thought that the DVD was hokey, but you still believe in prosperity thinking, this book is still perfect. It's perfect, even if you don't really believe that it will work. I was skeptical that it would, but it has for me.
P.S. - On an odd note, I had tested her concept by "visualizing" a way for me to get Ms. Ponder's books. I was frustrated when, for months, it seemed like I wouldn't have the money to purchase her books. If her methods work, I thought, why didn't I ever receive her books? I hadn't realized that it was because the need had already been met. Recently, I cleared out an old e-mail account. I discovered in July 2007, that I had received an Amazon gift certificate in January 2007 of which I was totally unaware. The money was more than enough to cover the purchase of several of Ms. Ponder's books:). I now, proudly own copies of all the book titles I ever wanted to purchase from her. It really does work.
Buying 4 copies to give away.......2007-07-23
Catherine's affirmations are life changing. If everyone would read it and put her words into practice, lack, ill health and unhappiness would disappear.
LOVE THIS BOOK!.......2007-06-23
Altho there were many typos in this book - I will cherish the contents forever! Love the hardbound - larger book too. Just finished reading and will go back and re-read with my highlighter ready to go! A wealth of information here and I can see where this was probably a source for The Secret. This book covers so many more LAWS than just the Law of Attraction (The Secret). This should be made into a movie! I am such a fan of Catherine Ponder as well as Vernon Howard.
Now I Understand Laws of Prosperity........2007-06-03
I purchased this book about 9 months ago. There are many new ideas presented in the book. If you have a basic understanding about laws of attraction then this book will help you even more. It is a slow read (at least for me) because there is so much powerful information.
While I was reading the book, putting it into use and doing affirmations, good things started happening to me. I received alot of money from unexpected resources and I attracted alot of opportunities. These things did not happen before. I am now reading this book again for the second time. The second read makes things even more clearer for me. If you want to attract prosperity or good fortune, then this is a must read. [...]
Catherine wrote one of the first and best of all the Prosperity Books.......2007-04-30
I have read all of Catherine's books, but the Prosperity book is my favorite. Her affirmations are powerful, and her antecdotes about how others have prospered by affirming goodness and plenty, are heart-warming, and motivational.
She taught us how to "reframe" unfortunate happenings before NLP had been formulated, by putting a positive spin on all situations.
She taught us how to deal with "energy blocks" before anybody was even talking about blocks to energy.
She taught us about "divine order" and truly living in faith, and how that attitude changes everything in your life, for the better.
This book is about creating prosperity that far exceeds just money. It's about opening all the doors and windows in your life and lettng in all of the abundance that's already yours.
If you liked the Secret, you will be bowled over by this book. It offers true wisdom, heart, and a roadmap to creating the life of your dreams.

If you've ever wondered why the latest fad diet doesn't work for you... well, there are lots of reasons, mostly the fact that it's a fad diet. But it could also be that you're the wrong blood type for the kinds of foods the diet recommends. Peter D'Adamo makes a persuasive argument that your blood type is an evolutionary marker that tells you which foods you'll process best, and which will be useless calories. He covers the entire range for each of the four blood types, from entrées to condiments and seasonings, and also makes type-specific exercise and lifestyle recommendations.
Amazon.com Audiobook Review
This abridged audiobook introduces Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo's revolutionary approach to dieting based on the connection between blood type and health. Read by audio pro Polly Adams, D'Adamo's bestseller details how different foods affect specific blood types both positively and negatively. We learn that "pastas made from buckwheat are better tolerated for Type Os," and that type As should eliminate all meat from their diet to reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. Adams blends an efficient, no-nonsense delivery and warm tones that may remind some of a favorite talk-radio personality. And considering the important subject matter, listeners will appreciate all of these qualities. While some dieters may find the suggestions too progressive--it's recommended that women with a history of breast cancer in their family introduce snails into their diet--this is a beneficial three-hour investment for dieters seeking alternative nutritional plans. (Running time: three hours, two cassettes) --Cate Bick

Easy Read.......2007-09-05
I found this book to be a very easy read. It gives very simple straight forward explanations and rationale for the diet and it's theories. It further reads like an instruction manual and very clearly explains what foods are beneficial, neutral, or an avoid. Pretty straight forward, if it's beneficial eat it, if it's an avoid, avoid it. And if it's a neutral it has little significance either way, so you can eat it but don't make it a diet staple.
Great Way to Lose Weight -- Best for Type O.......2007-08-24
I have followed the guidelines in this book loosely for 2 weeks and have lost over 8 pounds. Which is a 20% of the weight I want to lose by December. I am type O which is the best type to be on this diet because it allows for a larger range of foods. Type O's should definately try this diet, and its not hard to follow. The Other blood types should try this as well, but food options are more restricted. So if you have a hard time avoiding certain foods this may not be for you.

Blood Type Diet is No More Than Silly Mumbo-Jumbo.......2007-07-30
In John Robbins new book, "Healthy At 100", he studies the Abkhasians of the Caucasus Mountains, the Vilcabambans of Ecuador and the Hunzans of Pakistan. These are probably the three healthiest populations in the world. None of them prepare special foods for different people of different blood types. Yet they are almost universally healthy and happy.
Weston Price traveled the world back in the 1930s and examined the healthiest tribes of people to be found. None of them prepared different foods for people of different blood types.
To the best of my knowledge, there has never been a single scientific study demonstrating that people of different blood types have different nutritional needs.
Blood type diets are nothing more than silly mumbo-jumbo. Why do people embrace this kind of dietary cult? I'm not sure. Maybe because people feel a need to be segmented and divided in some way. This is MY special blood type diet! I eat this and you shouldn't. Maybe people embrace this stuff because it helps rationalize decisions that they have already made.

Blood Tyoe O, Food and Supplemental Lists.......2007-10-17
I find this small book very helpful. It is loaded with information and I can easily refer to it when shopping. And it is small enough that I can fit in my purse!
Blood Type O.......2007-10-12
I recieved it in a very timely maner and in the condition that it was said to be. I am pleased and happy. Thank you.
Good Reference Tool.......2007-10-08
Great for avoiding confusion when dining out or grocery shopping. Some foods in this book that are identified as a 'beneficial' for your body have since been changed to 'neutral' (neither good nor bad). The most up to date food categorizations can be found at D'Adamo's website in the 'Typebase' section. Still a must have for those new to the blood type way of eating.
Well planned out.......2007-09-18
This book plans out your diet very easily and makes everything very blunt and easy to follow. I personally didn't stick to the diet because I began having bad stomach cramps, probably from such a drastic change, but if you're willing to try it, go for it. I know someone who saw fabulous results from it. So it's worth looking into.
Confusion!!.......2007-08-31
I just find it very confusing. I've been eating, what I thought, was very healthy for about the past 14 months and the book really contradicts most of what I've been told I was doing right!! Very confusing!
Book Description
Since the first edition of MRI in Practice was published in 1993, the book has become the standard text for radiographers, technologists, radiology residents, radiologists and even sales representatives on the subject of magnetic resonance imaging. This text is essential reading on postgraduate courses. Furthermore, MRI in Practice has come to be known as the number one reference book and study guide in the areas of MR instrumentation, principles, pulse sequences, image acquisition, and imaging parameters for the advanced level examination for MRI offered by the American Registry for Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) in the USA. The book explains in clear terms the theory that underpins magnetic resonance so that the capabilities and operation of MRI systems can be fully appreciated and maximized. This third edition captures recent advances, and coverage includes: parallel imaging techniques, functional imaging techniques and new sequences such as balanced gradient echo.Building on the success of the first two editions, the authors have now re-conceptualized the design of the book. The third edition contains a wealth of additional illustrations and chapter enhancements draw on the depth of the authors ' experience in delivering MRI education and training. To promote accessibility of difficult concepts, extended analogies have been developed to relate the complexities of MRI physics to everyday phenomena. Learning points are clearly articulated, and frequent summaries are included to assist the reader in digesting the information.

A Great Helper for Students and Professionals.......2007-01-09
I have been working in MRI for 8 years and I think this is the best book I've ever read. This edition is well made than last edition. The figures and images are very useful.
One of the best all-in-one MRI instruction textbooks........2007-01-04
Not overly technical, easy to read, and not boring. Each topic is discussed clearly. The illustrations are sharp and in color. The chapter on K-space makes it worth the price. If you are only purchasing one textbook for MRI this is a very good choice. Less technical than Lufkin, less entertaining than Bushong; this is overall a very good choice for the technologist, medical student, or physician looking for a good reference on the subject of magnetic resonanace imaging.

Wait for the official certification guide.......2007-08-03
I bought this book because it is (so far) the only one available from Cisco Press. I thought I'd be able to get a head start on passing the exam. It's not worth it. Wait for the official guide due out in a few weeks.
The author of this book is very fond of the acronyms, which is maddening to someone trying to learn IS-IS. Terms are not always clearly defined before being used in context, which also gets very frustrating. The correct answers that you need to learn for the test are often clouded with real world technicalities. These technicalities are usually minute enough you'd never actually run across it in practice, and they confused my studying more than once. This book also doesn't have enough detail to get you through the new test and will need to be supplemented by other studying. Without any kind of practice test, you are far better off waiting for the official book. I wish I had.
Used this book to pass the BSCI 642-901 Exam.......2007-07-20
Pretty concise and detailed, enough information in the book to pass the exam.
The lack of a CD is a big disadvantage for this book.
Great Cisco book from Brianxbarretto (Amazon authorized seller).......2007-07-16
This book is a must to pass the Cisco BSCI exam. Since it is very detailed, use it with more concise books.
Looking to buy any Cisco certification books, look out for Amazon authorized seller Brianxbarretto. I am very pleased with this seller and highly recommend. Seller offers amazing prices and speedy delivery. My order shipped standard but arrived the day after leaving the wharehouse!! Order was in exact condition as described - it was used but looked new!!! And most appreciated by me is the personal touch seller put in our dealings by taking time to answer all my Cisco-related questions. Thanks Brianxbarretto.
Shipped.......2007-07-03
Thanks Amazon for shipping the BCSI book in the right time according the time scheduled before. Regards.
Self Study Guide is better suited for a Course.......2007-06-25
It is not accurate for Cisco Press to deem this a self study guide as the labs provided (11 routers and a switch) are well beyond the means (or space) available for most people pursuing a self study option. It is also easier to gain a better understanding of IGP's from Routing TCP/IP Volume 1, which I has to do to supplement my studies. In hindsight I feel I should have waited for the BSCI Exam Guide to be published.
Book Description
American Mourning is the story of two American families whose sons died in the war on terror. Casey Sheehan and Justin Johnson had been best friends since they first met at Fort Hood in Texas; they were killed within five days of each other in separate ambushes in Sadr City, Iraq, during Holy Week of 2004.
As the Sheehan and Johnson families have mourned their unimaginable loss, they have had little else in common and have taken entirely different paths as they mourned. Justin's father, Joe Johnson, followed his son to Baghdad, slogging through the open sewers of Iraqi slums to see where Justin had died and to avenge his death.
Cindy Sheehan wanted another kind of revenge. Blaming President Bush for Casey's death, she called the Muslim radicals who killer her son "freedom fighters" and brought an entourage of antiwar activists and a coalition of the willing press to the president's ranch outside Crawford, Texas. Demanding that the president meet with her in the sweltering Texas summer, she became a media phenomenon and America's best-known antiwar activist since Jane Fonda.
The Sheehans and the Johnsons represent the extremes of grief-stricken parents in war, both families reflecting the gap in how Americans view the war on terror. The Johnson family has bonded closer. Justin's parents have grown nearer; their faith has been strengthened; and their support for the war is stronger than ever. Meanwhile, the Sheehan family has fractured, and Casey's parents have divorced. Cindy says she is no longer a Christian, and her opposition to the war is deeper an dmore bitter than ever.
The bodies of Casey Sheehan and Justin Johnson lie in their hometown graves. Justin's final resting place is decorated with handmade flags and miniature Uncle Sams. Casey's had no marker for two years to tell the world that he lived, fought, and died a hero.
Both Joe and Cindy are shooting at ghosts. Cindy still is. This is their story. The story of American Mourning.

Loss and hatred on opposite paths.......2007-03-22
Reviewed by Debra Gaynor for Reader Views (2/07)
Justin Johnson was raised in Georgia where boys are taught how to use a gun from an early age. Justin enlisted after 9/11. "Mom, things aren't good. It's scary. You wouldn't believe this place. It's messing with our heads. Mom, you just never know. There are kids, ten- to-twelve year-olds and they got machine guns. You don't know: are they friendly or are they the enemy."
Casey Sheehan was raised in California. Casey's mother discouraged her son from enlisting in the army. He was loyal and loved his country. She offered to take him to Canada so that he could avoid Iraq, but he declined.
Casey and Justin met at Fort Hood, Texas. The two became quick friends although they didn't have a lot in common. "Both were quiet, strong, patriotic, and God-loving young men." "Both young men prayed to God and hoped they would make it home to their moms and dads, sisters and brothers."
Justin and Casey were both killed by radical Muslims.
Joe Johnson wanted revenge on the terrorists. He signed up with a unit shipping to Iraq and "swore to God and to Justin that I would go to Iraq and kill as many of them as I could." Joe was filled with hatred. "I could kill all the insurgents and it would never bring Justin back, I don't think I'll really get anything out of it except for maybe that one moment of satisfaction when I finally kill somebody. But as far as long-lasting feelings of satisfaction, I don't think I'll find it in Iraq. There's hardly a day goes by that I don't wish I hadn't a spent more time with him."
Cindy Sheehan was also filled with hatred but she took it a different direction. "She blamed President George W. Bush for Casey's death and called the Muslim radicals who killed Casey and Just "freedom fighters." "Cindy posted herself outside the president's Crawford ranch. She became a media phenomenon, thanks to a campaign by well-paid media experts from the Left." Her grief and the media destroyed her family.
"A parent should never have to bury a child."
Catherine Moy & Melanie Morgan expressively share the tragic story of two young men killed in Iraq, two families torn apart. Moy and Morgan capture and convey the pain and anguish the families are suffering. I found myself in tears as I read this book. The bravery of Justin and Casey is celebrated on these pages. I want to be careful not to state an opinion of the actions of the families for I would not add to their pain. After reading this book, the deaths become more than a news story. This book gives Justin and Casey a face and brings them into you heart. This book describes the divide in American opinion concerning the War on Terror. Regardless of which side of the divide you stand we must never forget the young men and women who are fighting this war. Ms Moy and Morgan are to be commended on their presentation of the heroic lives of these two young men. I highly recommend "America Mourning" to all.
Unfair to both sides.......2007-03-02
This book is one of the saddest pieces of "journalism" I have ever read. It is a smear job on both families. Not just Sheehan, but the ridiculous amount of personal stuff thrown out there on the Jackson's makes the reader wonder: What does any of this have to do with argument? All in all, a book that appears to be profiting from the death of two brave men. I am thoroughly appalled by the words and tactics of the authors. I am apolitical, so maybe I didn't enter this book with the frame of mind necessary to feel good about the dragging through the mud of two brave and decent soldiers families. Is this what they fought and died for? Flat ridiculous.
American Mourning was a great book.......2007-01-10
I mostly read just Stephen King books, but this book was one that I had heard about and decided to purchase. I was very glad to read about one family that cared so much for their son that his father enlisted to avenge his son's death. Unfortunatly, reading about Cindy Sheehan only wanted me to get a gun and shoot her. She did nothing but lie and kept her family from mourning their son's death. I really enjoyed this book.
American Mourning.......2007-01-10
If the authores would of just stuck with the story it would of been a 5 star for me. It had too many political judgements but all in all it was a good story. I heard they are thinking of making a movie out of this book. That I would like to see but I hope they focus more on the Soldiers and not so much on the politics.
A picture of the real heart of Americans........2007-01-10
A 'must read' for those who are only hearing the anti-America retoric of the liberal minority. There are still Americans who are proud of what our country still stands for. GP

Lifestyle Changer.......2007-10-05
Simply the best thing I've ever done for my body. If you are tired of dieting why not trade in the foods your body can't process for those it can?
I haven't felt this good since I was a teenager (and that's been a few decades). The website is great also.
Right on Target.......2007-08-12
The Eat Right for Your Type Complete Blood Type Encyclopedia is an excellent reference tool. If you are serious about changing your lifestyle for the better, you won't want to pass up this book. It is an easy read with a lot of information. One of the best investments you will ever make.
does not work.......2007-08-05
Book was in great shape- fast service. Exemplary from the seller.
Content does not work, in fact, I gained 15 lbs while using it. Had to go to the complete opposite for my bloodtype!
Interesting and helpful.......2007-07-09
This book gives you a diferent perspective on how/what to eat based on your blood type.
( It's good to know your blood type before reading it :-)
It has been very helpful to me and my family.
EATING RIGHT .......2007-06-27
THIS WAS A VERY EDUCATIONAL BOOK. IT WAS RECOMMENDED BY MY DOCTOR. I THINK THAT THE LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY OF THE BOOK IS GREATER THAN MANY PEOPLE WOULD ENJOY. IT REQUIRES MORE THAN A SINGLE READING TO UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPTS. IT ALSO RECOMMENDS A LOT OF HERBAL REMEDIES OF VARIOUS CONDITIONS WHICH COULD BE A LITTLE COST PROHIBITIVE. THE DIET GUIDE WAS SIMPLE AND EASY TO FOLLOW BUT REQUIRED THAT YOU HAVE A GOOD GRASP OF THE BOOK'S CONCEPTS IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND WHY TO EXCLUDE FOODS FROM YOUR DIET. I ENJOYED THE BOOK AND WILL REREAD MUCH OF IT. I AM ALSO FOLLOWING MANY OF ITS GUIDELINES FOR EATING FOR MY BLOOD TYPE.

Blood Type A: Food, Beverage and Supplement Lists from Eat Right for Your Type
by Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo
I got this for a friend with Diabetes.
I have the complete book allready in my libary, and felt he could use the one for his blud type.
I have found this book to be one of the most astounding book I have read, It answer's so smch we find confusing as to why we like or dont like food.
You just have to try it to beleave it it works.
too exspensive.......2007-08-07
Very small book.After adding postage $5.99 it was much too exspensive.The book itself was OK and you could get most of the information you need to follow the diet.If you wanted a lot of detailed information you would need to purchase one of the larger books.
diet.......2007-08-01
Great shape, but info did not work for me. Eating for right type made me gain weight. Item was shipped quickly. Seller was great- content is questionable. Would not suggest it for others.
Diet book.......2007-06-10
This small in size large in content book is good to take along with you when you go food shopping. A lot of the foods I like, don't like me according to this book and I agree with 93% of this point of view. The book is a fast read and another good reference for you to consider while building your life time diet plan.

Great Resource.......2007-03-27
Practical ideas to utilize in therapy make working with children and adolescents so much easier for therapists who are uncertain how to work effectively with young people. This book helps therapists understand children's needs within a variety of family circumstances and to work effectively with parents to facilitate their parenting skills. Chock full of useful ideas; a wonderful resource! Nancy Nickell
The Therapist's Notebook for Children and Adolescents.......2007-03-19
Great, user-friendly treatment planner with lots of different activities for both children/adolescents and their families. Great explanations for each topic.
VERY HELPFUL.......2006-02-24
THE BOOK WAS VERY INFORMATIVE AND SEVERAL RESOURCES THAT I WAS ABLE TO USE IMMEDIATELY. IT'S WORTH THE MONEY.
Therapist's notebook for children and adolescents.......2003-09-08
This great book is for the therapist working with children and adolescents, where the therapist can use the material as homework, handouts and activities in therapy. The editors, Catherine Ford Sori, professor of psychology and counseling at Governors State University, Illinois and Lorna L Hecker, professor of marriage and family therapy at Purdue University in Indiana, have together with 36 professionals compiled a very important tool for the therapist.
It is divided into eight sections: childrenýs feelings, play in therapy, specific childhood problems, illenes, trauma and bereavement, adolescents, interventions, family and parent education with a total of 46 chapters.
This is a very resourceful book with plenty of ideas, plans and suggestions for use in the encounter with children, adolescents and their families......
