Histoire
Baffling and beloved, with the capacity to go from joy to frustration in seconds, young children are some of the most misunderstood people on the planet. Parents and caregivers struggle with these little ones, who are known for their extreme behaviour, from tantrums, resistance, and aggression to separation anxiety, bedtime protests, and not listening. The key to understanding youngsters lies in realizing that their challenging behaviour is not personal, nor is it a disorder or deficit.

I loved listening to this book. Great insight. Excellent stories. Yet it was to the point and without the fluff. I hope the author keeps writing books.

Rejected at birth and raised in a village of tiefling misfits, Farideh expects a life without friends, love, or control over her destiny.

Her twin sister, Havilar, urges Farideh to resist the devil’s sway. But Farideh’s not so sure. Lorcan may be dangerous but the power he offers is exhilarating. In the ruins of Neverwinter, Farideh’s doubts get tangled up in a devilish snare six layers deep.

I was super skeptical in book one and didn’t think I would finish, but it just got better and better. Book II was awesome. Definitely worth the read. A little slow and overly focused on ritual magic but it was interesting to listen to. Great book.

Kids Summoning Demons
Évalué le: 2020-07-03
The whole how is Farideh a warlock/patron pact thing is essentially a paragraph. Sister randomly summoned a demon...as a teenager. Then a couple spoken words between the cambion and Farideh and we have a pact. Not sure I will continue to read, but I’m impressed someone got a book deal on a simple D&D backstory.

Part ego. Part sexist drivel. Totally boring. All anecdotal information based on dates gone wrong. He tries to pass himself off like a dating guru using validation as his one tool. Validation. Validation. Validation. Read the above line few more times and spare yourself from listening to the book.

A synthesis of business books with a military analogy
Évalué le: 2020-01-17
Team of Teams is enough. This book quickly becomes redundant. Also, a lot of the citations are from books easily found at the bookstore, which made the information feel cheap. Case studies and information outside of the military examples are effortlessly found elsewhere. A few good ideas, but agree with other reviews that this could be an article rather than a book.

An educator and mother, Diane Tavenner cofounded the first Summit school in 2003. Summit Public Schools has won national recognition because 99 percent of Summit students get into a four-year college, and Summit students finish college at twice the national average. But in a radical departure from the environments created by the college admissions arms race, Summit students aren’t focused on competing with their classmates for rankings or test scores.

It’s inspiring, but more autobiographical than instructive. As a book to prepare kids, this will not benefit the reader. Look to ‘The Yes Brain’ or ‘The Formula’ as better sources of information.

Histoire
Many of us know we're putting too much pressure on our kids - and on ourselves - but how do we get off this crazy train? We want our children to succeed, to be their best, and to do their best, but what if they are not on board? A few years ago, Ned Johnson and Bill Stixrud started noticing the same problem from different angles: even high-performing kids were coming to them acutely stressed and lacking any real motivation. Many complained that they had no real control over their lives.

Physicist and entrepreneur Safi Bahcall reveals a surprising new way of thinking about the mysteries of group behavior that challenges everything we thought we knew about nurturing radical breakthroughs. Drawing on the science of phase transitions, Bahcall reveals why teams, companies, or any group with a mission will suddenly change from embracing wild new ideas to rigidly rejecting them.

Physics as a substitute for a change management model
Évalué le: 2019-10-19
The case studies are excellent. Although some have been used in other business books. The phase transitions and physics jargon is really just an analogy for a change management model. It actually doesn’t provide much insight into the issue or as much as using a sociological/psychological approach. For the most part phase transitions is really discussing resisters to change. Using an ice cube analogy at your next board meeting might fall flat, but it is fun to think about. Looking at organization structure is interesting but how it intersects with culture would probably do more to explain loon shoots. Read Culture Code instead.

This book was excellent. I was inspired to learn more about science, space, and our planet. I was equally inspired by the philosophy sprinkled throughout. Excellent book from an amazing Canadian hero.
