Don't Ask Me If I Love - Amos Kollek - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Don't Ask Me If I Love - Amos Kollek - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Don’t Ask Me If I Love is the story of a young man who hates war, but serves faithfully in his country’s army. He loves his parents, but can no longer care about the things that are important to them. He is a citizen of a religious state, but questions many of its precepts. In need of someone to give meaning to his life he falls in love with an American girl. He is Assaf Ryke—one of the new Israelis of the 1960s.Moving from a discotheque in Jerusalem to the beach at Caesarea, from a shabby flat in Tel Aviv to an apartment in London, Don’t Ask Me If I Love is a novel of love and alienation in a country not normally associated with the generation gap.

How to Ask for and Get What You Want - Catherine Depino - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

How to Ask for and Get What You Want - Catherine Depino - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

We’ve all experienced frustration asking for and getting what we want. It plays out regularly with our partners, children, employers, and businesses we patronize. Sometimes we don’t bother to ask for what we want, even when it’s perfectly reasonable, thinking it will create hard feelings or spark an argument. Often, it’s because we don’t think we can succeed in getting what we want. But nothing could be further from the truth.How to Ask for What You Want and Get It: Common Sense Tips That Work will help readers learn how to ask for what they want and get good results. It teaches them how to stay in the game by using the right words. It also shows how to build rapport by using positive body language. The more you know what makes people operate as they do, the better chance you’ll have of helping them see things your way. The most important aspect to negotiating anything is getting the other person on your side. That means the person you’re asking has to like and respect you enough to do what you want. Most of the advice in this book employs mindfulness techniques. The mindfulness movement helps people live in the moment, speak more effectively to one another, and settle problems peacefully.

Why Can't There Be Peace in the World? - Dr Pat Fosarelli - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Why Can't There Be Peace in the World? - Dr Pat Fosarelli - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Over a period of fifteen years, Johns Hopkins pediatrician Pat Fosarelli, MD, a professor at St. Mary’s Ecumenical Institute, surveyed approximately 9,000 children, adolescents, and teens about their understand of God. This book reveals their answers to a single query: “If you could ask God a question, what would that question be?” The candid, unvarnished responses Fosarelli received from this racially and socioeconomically diverse group are hardly the precious, saccharine content of Hallmark cards. They are illuminating, profound, curious, and weighty, revealing how these children understand themselves and their existence. Some of their responses focus on the nature of God (“Who are God’s parents?”); others focus on themselves (“Why can’t friendships last forever?) and people around them (“Why are some people poor?”); some responses address suffering (“Why do people die?”) and creation (“Why do some animals hurt people?”) and heaven (“Will I see my mother?”). Fosarelli guides readers through children’s stages of development, explaining how these stages correlate with the content and sophistication of their questions, and suggesting how parents and teachers can respond most effectively to questions children may ask about God. In the final chapter she explores how these children’s questions can help parents, teachers, and other child/youth professionals better understand the dreams, concerns, anxieties, wishes, and fears of young people today.

The Heart and Mind in Teaching - William Hayes - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The Heart and Mind in Teaching - William Hayes - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The Heart and Mind in Teaching: Pedagogical Styles Through the Ages provides an important historical context for an issue confronting every American teacher, administrator, student, parent, and citizen. As the art of teaching is rapidly replaced by formulas, clinical studies, and one-size-fits-all scientific pedagogy, it is important to ask the question, “How did we get here?” Authors Alyssa Magee Lowery and William Hayes trace the history of teaching from Greek philosophy to twenty-first century educational issues in an effort to provide some perspective in the long art versus science debate, ultimately finding that the two components may be able to coexist peacefully.
