This book is the official manual for High/Scope curriculum. It outlines exactly how to set up a High/Scope classroom, from setting up the learning environment to guiding adult interactions. It gives you everything you need to know to be an amazing preschool teacher and it is backed by a mountain of research. You no longer have to reinvent the wheel. They have provided everything necessary to be successful in a classroom and for your students to be successful.

A well written, scholarly work with abundant references, including a biographical study of Mumford and his writings. Highly recommended.

Fanny Lewald is an engaging and provocative author whose autobiography is much more than just the story of her life. The broad scope of this book (politics, art, religion, philosophy)comes from Lewald's varied interests and own deep involvement in her tumultuous times. Germany and Europe as whole were going through lots of changes--revolutions in many fields--and Lewald participated in many of them and was a perceptive and thoughtful observer of all of them.

The book is beautifully and sensitively translated, making it a pleasure to read.

I have a translated version of this book-Hebrew. It was a wonderful feeling to scan through 200 years of scientific events and how they are connected. In some cases it seems un-believable, childish, and politicized. I did not like the superlativity in the book, sometime I felt it was like a religous sermon. Generally, this book provides execelent summary of the famous scientists; and a young person, with interest in science, will understand there is nothing absolute, and the negative/positive compatetive world exist also in the science communities. Final note, a successful new theories should have friends in the circle of the decision makers-to secur funding and emotional support.

The children of the first book (Peter, Susan, Edmond and Lucy) are back in Narnia. For them it has been just a couple of months, but for the inhabitants of that magic world has been hundreds of years. Now the telmarins rules, and the old narnians lived hiding. The true heir of the throne, prince Caspian, with and army of dwarves and talking animals, would have to fight... and readers, all ages, all over the world, would again be thrilled by this wonderful story of magic and reality.

Pauli, who was rated by Born to be as good as Einstein, taught theoretical physics for many years at Technische Hochschule at Zurich. This book is labored on notes taken by students from his lectures on Electrodynamics. This is the book I consult when I am not happy with the explanations in the usual books. If it happens that Pauli touches the subject, I always get what I looked for: conceptual clarity and very good algorithms. Yes, because Pauli, one of the most profound physicists ever, believed that a physicist must calculate. He even "practiced" in his spare time! I especially like, in this book, the derivation of the laws for RLC circuits, rigorously in the field theory way, and absolutely clear and elegant. This is not an introduction to electricity. It is a rather sophisticated introduction to that part of theoretical physics called electrodynamics. In this role, it is certainly among the very best.

I had never even heard of de Antonio, but Randolph Lewis has now sparked my interest in his films, and in American documentary filmmaking more generally. A truly masterful work!

Ok. I already feel odd writing a review of this book. The anticipated audience is incredibly narrow and if you found this review, you probably know what you are looking for. However, I think this is one of the greatest books. As a law student who is planning on specializing in ERISA, this book has been an invaluable resource to me. It is the first place I turn when I have an ERISA question to research. It won't provide all the answers but puts a very complex statute into perspective. It would also benefit the non-lawyer who might be involved in benefits.

Who better to address the empowerment of women of color than women of color? Gutierrez, a Latina and Lewis, a Black woman of the African diaspora, have taken on this auspicious task by developing a model for social work practice. They present the historical, cultural, political and socioeconomic factors which have contributed to the problems and struggles faced by women of color. By use of example, some of them anecdotal, they relate the methods by which women of color can be empowered by drawing upon the strengths of their ancestors, raising their consciousness, building confidence, connecting with others and working in concert with nature, tradition and spirit. We are told that although racism, sexism and discrimination have contributed to the poverty of these women, they are a hopeful rather than a hopeless people who can be empowered when the practioner has used the methods outlined in this book. This book should be in the hands of every practitioner who works with women of color.

This reference set is simply overwhelming in its scale and coverage, and there really is not much else to say aside from the fact that if you are looking for *any* little detail having to do with Islam, you have a 100% chance of finding it here. It covers absolutely everything, from the most simple matters of the "five pillars of faith" to the tiniest of details in how those pillars have been interpreted, along with how the traditions and rituals have evolved in the practice and pursuit of those pillars. This is a must-have reference for any library. Simply essential.
