After hearing Susan Thompson Moore speak about her book I had to buy it. It covers just about every academic and social difficulty you can think of. The author easily explains to the reader what Asperger Syndrome is and how it effects the individual through language development, social interaction, sensory integration, motor functioning, and cognitive processing. Many positive strategies are provided on organizational and curriculum accomodations as well as developing social skills and team work.

I have enjoyed reading this book and can see how easily the strategies can be put into place. I also like the charts and graphs that can easily be reproduced for my own use. I recommend this book for parents with children with AS in elementary school and younger (we need to plan!) and well as elementary teachers with special needs kids in their classroom.

Violence, ninjas, barbarians, demons, caves, dungeons, assassinations, etc. This book has just about everything you could want. I first got hooked on this series a LONG time ago but I still remember it. Easy to play, fun to read. Nice artwork. A must-read for all Japanophiles. To be honest, I'm not sure if I read--no, EXPERIENCED is the right word--this book, but chances are I did. Anyway, I remember how fun it was and I hope that you feel the same. It's a pity that these books went in vogue because I feel that they were really amazing in their own little way. It's not all just violence, either. There are some parts in some of the books where you have to choose advisors, because you're a ninja king. Great for the imagination.

This is one of those few intellectual works that can truely change one's understanding of how things work. A profound analysis of historical change that presents both models of change and societal models.

This book lives up to the editorial reviews. It covers a wide range of atmospheric processes in good detail. There are a fair number of abbreviations used, and early in the book there are a number of references to sections that will be dealt with later. But that never detracts from the steady build up of information. Undoubtedly, for me the greatest strengths were the large number of explanatory figures, tables, boxed explanations and case studies. Each section of the book commences with a brief statement and key point list of the ideas to be presented, many also have a boxed summary, and parts conclude with a key point summary. This may sound like the author has overworked the adage, "Tell them what you are going to say, say it, and tell them you have said it" but that is not the case at all. These greatly strengthen the knowledge flow. I read this book out of general interest, and it was well worth the time spent. I was familiar with much of the content, but not organised in my thinking about it; this book helped a lot. If I have a criticism, it is that the 14 black and white photographs dotted through the book would have looked much better in colour. If there are typos, errors of fact and omission, then they weren't obvious. If you wondered why the wind blows, the rain falls, and where angular momentum, vorticity and other such terms fit into the general picture of the weather, but you would prefer to find out without revising your calculus course notes first, this book is for you.

Colin Thompson is the brilliant Aussie author who has written a series of novels about animals that live in a normal backyard. These animals include cats, slugs, owls, flys, bats etc. The stories are funny and sometimes very sad. I love the stories involving Ethel the chicken (or should i say EthelDoris). Check them out!

B.A.S.I.C. is an excellent publication which provides clear and effective information for building community in Residence Halls. It is an excellent resource for anyone working in a residence hall with students, particularly RAs. Great job!

"Back Soon", is a truly touching story about a kitten named Herbert and his mother. Herbert's mother always goes out and leaves him with his relatives, before she leaves she always tells him "Back Soon!" and sometimes she dosn't come back as quickly as Herbert would like. One day Herbert dicides to give his mother a little taste of her own medicine, he goes out to the garden to play for a little while, before he leaves he tells his mother, "Back soon!" he gets distracted and stays out for a longer than he expected. His mother misses him sorely, and when he hears her sadley call his name he runs right back to her. They let each other know no matter how long they are out,or away, they will always come back to each other. The book had beautiful illustrations and people of all ages can understand and enjoy it.

I am from Thailand and a native Thai.
I read his book; he is my professor.
I am impressed with his idea- the so " socratic idea".
I love his book and everyone should buy it.

My son and I have read this book many times, over and over, and it does not loose its "feel good" effect. The message is obvious, dealing with the propagation of kindness, and is presented at a level that children understand and appreciate. Those who have criticized its "execution", either are without children or can not appreciate the fun children have with such a style. My family finds this book to be a delightful gem.

When I first started to read this book, I couldn't put it down. It is such a real thing. A book about a struggling painter who has a limp, and a young girl called Becky. For those who like to read about life and real people, this book is for you. It broke my heart. Thompson creates a story which doesn't have a happy ending, which is exactly what happens in real life sometimes. I consider it a classic! Very few writers actually write with a burning truth about life, love, poverty, humanity and strugle. It seems as if Thompson wasn't out to create a fantasy but to see into the souls of the people in this world who face heartbreak, poverty and hardships, and bring out their story. I've read many books in my 16 years of life, and consider "Becky" to be one of the best.
