not so surprising .......2005-04-26
there is some good points to known , but it is a bit long for the ideas developed inside.
Listen up and learn how to listen!.......2002-05-21
This is a surprisingly fun book to read. Peter deLisser's "in your face" tone is hard to resist. He hammers in each point and then repeats it again for good measure. His main point -- to which he dedicates at least one-half of the book -- is the importance of being a "responsible listener." Listeners are made, not born, he believes. With practice and knowledge, you too can become a great listener -- and oh boy, the places you'll go then! Seriously, the tools and techniques in this book are very good and helpful not only in business but in personal relationships. The art of listening without reacting defensively is a real diamond in human relationships. It can turn many difficult discussions into experiences that bring people closer.
How to Listen..........2001-11-29
Most of our lives it's not uncommon to hear someone say "be quiet and listen...". Or perhaps it was "you're not listening to me..." I know I have used those words many times. However, in all of the years (47) I can't recall receiving very explicit instructions on how to listen... Never see "How to Listen" courses or conferences. Have seen much written on how to speak etc. Perhaps I looked in all the wrong places. In any case I finally found listening instructions in a book about coaching. Go figure! The 30 pages on listening are what make this worth reading. One quickly comes to understand why it appears as if nobody is listening to you; only 5% have been trained to listen. One quickly learns listening technique which has been invaluable to my career and personal life as well. This one stays on the reference shelf!
A practical survival guide to communicating with humans........2001-08-14
The book provides a person with my background (a science nerd turned into a hi-tech manager) well founded, well explained and 100% scientific approach to business communications. It teaches HOW to take 100% responsibility for listening and speaking. It is easy to advice not to react emotionally to what other person says, and everybody does it in their books. In contrast, this book teaches techniques that make emotional reaction unnecessary, without any artificial self control. When reading this book I realized that emotions in response to what others say result from the lack of the kind of analysis the author suggests to do: evaluate the message as being valid/invalid, conversation as being equal/unequal, always know where you are in any conversation. Making this analysis a habit accomplishes two goals: it makes clear and explicit (illuminates) what is actually going on, and moves you to the analytical kind of reaction instead of emotional. The book helped me to realize that emotions often result from the fear similar to the fear people experience in a dark maze. The analysis presented in the book results in always knowing where you are in a conversation, illuminates the maze, and removes the fear and all associated emotions. The author also provides clear guidance and scripts for what to do and what not to do when listening, which also builds confidence and thus lowers the emotion. In the section on speaking I liked the classification of speaking (coaching, declarations), the structured approach to speaking, and examples and scripts that are provided. I found it helpful to always know what you are doing when speaking. Then I can take control, and take the 100% responsibility for the outcome. The conversation management techniques (goals, time, exits, getting attention and commitments) are also invaluable. Reading the book had immediate effect on all of my relationships (I have a wife, three kids, a job and a lot of friends).
Not Just for the Suits!.......2001-06-29
I am not an executive in Big Business; I am a theater professional, living in a village in the New York metropolitan area; I have a family; I am a pro bono community activist. Mr. deLisser's techniques are useful in all quarters of my varied life.
From trying achieve consensus in a rehearsal process to motivating committee members of a library board, Mr. deLisser's system works. The reader will also find the book helpful in domestic communications from the kitchen to the bedroom.
I can highly recommended this book

Layman's guide to producing training materials.......1999-03-03
While the ideas are not necessarily state of the art, this guide provides the basic how-to's for anyone suddenly saddled with the responsibility of producing effective materials for training (without costing an arm and a leg!). The guide is light reading - not bogged down in heavy technical talk - but is truly written for the layman. A nice book to keep tucked away on any manager's desk!

Book Description
This study provides heretofore unavailable information to be considered by policy makers when making these difficult decisions. The study reveals that what actually goes on in the classroom and the media center can be quite different from what school administrators think is going on. The voices of students, teachers and librarians may be heard in rich detail as they speak for themselves. Written by Wake Forest University Library Director, Dr. Lynn Sutton, this book is a required reference for all involved in education, particularly intellectual freedom. " . shows through real-world experiences how damaging filters can be for the educational process." - Marjorie Heins (J.D., Harvard Law School), author of ,Introduction to Internet Filters: A Public Policy Report (Free Expression Policy Project, Brennan Center for Justice, 2006)

Solid research on a timely topic -- a must for every library.......2006-11-28
Enjoyably readable depiction of high school students' research restraints -- compounded by do-good (but know-nothing) technology administrators who promote fear (and loathing) in lieu of ready access to crucial information. Makes you wonder when we're going to collectively grow up. Answer: when more people read and understand this compelling and concise examination of what they're (not) teaching our kids.
Dr. Sutton, you had me at "access"...
