Weiss Ratings' Guide to Life, Health and Annuity Insurers: Winter 1999-2000

Product Description

As awareness of Asperger Syndrome (AS) grows, it becomes increasingly important that all professionals have a familiarity with and understanding of the condition. However, for teachers, who have minimal spare time, it is difficult to access the details they need for working with AS children without wading through extensive books aimed at parents and professionals. Asperger Syndrome What Teachers Need to Know bridges this gap and is the ideal starting point for teachers wishing to learn about Asperger Syndrome and how best to work with and get the most from a child with an ASD. Providing a summary of currently available information on AS and covering all the key issues that will concern teachers (e.g. social skills, homework, playground behavior, assisting with study), Matt Winter, a teacher himself, imparts tips and practical ideas that he has found successful and invaluable for anyone working in a school environment.

Asperger Syndrome: What Teachers need to Know.......2007-09-15

I felt it had some very good ideas. It's a short read and to the point.

Asperger Syndrome What Teachers Need To Know.......2007-09-14

I have struggled since Kindergarten to find a book that teachers at my son's school would actually read and this is it. I bought it after printing pages from the internet for his teacher so that she would understand his needs better. He is mainstreamed but has difficulty with authority. She has done wonders in just the first month of school. She is willing to learn and accepted the book without hesitation and has actually shared it with other teachers and duties in the school. The book is well written - very easy read and doesn't take up the precious time of teachers, it is informative and well explained. I highly recommend this book to anyone even supporting staff at schools especially elementary schools.

Wonderful book for teachers!!.......2007-08-26

I was very impressed with the straight forward and direct approach of this book. I read this book in less than an hour and picked up some good tips. Before I found this book, I was trying to search the internet for info to print off for his teacher. I was having a hard time finding a site that described AS, it's symptoms, what to expect, and how to help. This book covers it all, plus has tips of things to add to the IEP. Since no one in our school district has ever dealt with AS before, this book will be a big help. I bought a copy for my son's teacher, and am trying to get the school to buy copies of their own.

LOVE THIS BOOK.......2007-08-21

I love this book because it's short enough that the teachers will actually read it, and practical enough that they will actually use it. We have given a copy of the book to each of my son's teachers every year - it is a critical part of laying the foundation for good communication for the school year, and for helping the teachers see and understand his behavior in the right context. I would highly recommend this book!

The first step in educating educators.......2007-08-14

I'm getting my son's teachers and support team - who are convinced they've seen it all - ready for next year. This book is our first step. It is succinct, jargon-free and maintains a positive, constructive attitude throughout.

It has value to any professional educator with any interest in developing his/her skills and educational techniques with ALL students, not just the Asperger's/ASD demographic. It gives the basics and hits the high points, as well as referencing many resources to search out more information, strategies, techniques and tools.

For parents, either entering the fray for the first time or continuing the journey to maximizing our amazing kids, it is invaluable. A tool to use when setting priorities and get the already eager and motivated educators started. A weapon to use to breech the barriers of ignorance, to break through the walls of preconceptions and to motivate resistant teachers or administrators.

Book Description

"An Owner's Manual" is an interactive workbook designed for young people grades 5 through 8 for use with guidance from a helping adult. Astutely written to be understood by these particular adolescents, "An Owner's Manual" describes what Asperger Syndrome is and how it can affect daily life. With the help of a trusted adult, the child completes a series of exercises related to learning style, sensory issues, emotions, relationships, and more, culminating in a written plan for each major area of his life that will serve as a constant guide and reinforcement. "An Owner's Manual" is designed to be used at different times throughout the child's life, including diagnosis and when problems arise. This unique workbook not only reassures the young person that the things he is struggling with can improve, but also empowers him by providing a chance to identify his needs and to participate in developing interventions and future planning.

Great Workbook!.......2007-08-04

My daughter, age 9, already knew a lot about Asperger's Syndrome, so introducing her to it wasn't an issue. She enjoys working in the workbook with me. Throughout the workbook, the child focuses on strengths and weaknesses, what the child can do and what they may need help with, etc. The child builds goals and plans for certain situations. We have not made it all the way through, some of the things are to make a homework schedule, etc., and we bought the book over the summer, so we are waiting for school to start before completing it. I really like that it helps me to be involved in her planning and tasks and gives us time to talk about things in a structured way, instead of her just venting about her problems. We are talking and working in a more productive way now, and hopefully as she works toward some of her goals she will see the benefits. My daughter is very high functioning, but I believe that it would be helpful to a wide range of children.

A Much Needed Tool for Self Exploration, Self Awareness and Self Advocacy.......2006-04-20

This is a wonderful workbook in which adolescents with AS can explore and embrace their own unique needs. The worksheets and concepts are very clear and pave the way for the adolescent with AS to gain critical insight into themselves and then problem solve, and plan accordingly. I HIGHLY recommend this book. The concepts and strategies can be easily adapted for use with all ages.

A 10 Star Help for those with AS!.......2006-04-17

This excellent book is clear, well thought out,and easy to use. Those challenged by AS are presented with opportunities for self exploration and an understanding of what AS is and how it might be effecting their lives. They are encouraged, validated, and this interactive workbook helps THEM come out with solutions!!! As a parent I can't recommend this book enough! I can see it being adapted for use with many ages.

Book Description

Dealing with the media can be extremely daunting and fraught with danger without a well-prepared approach. Some companies have lost millions of dollars because of poorly handled public relations. Some small businesses have been driven out of existence by bad press. This book shows individuals how to prepare their messages, deal with difficult interviewers, and get their messages across firmly and confidently. Many of the rules seem obvious, but the fact that media appearances fluster so many people is evidence of just how alien the experience is to most people.

'Making Effective Media Happen' lives up to its name.......2003-11-27

It's been said that our number one fear is public speaking, so it's no wonder that many people freeze when they are confronted by the media.

Anyone who has faced the press will know you cannot be too prepared. What you say and how you say it can mean the difference between improving a company's profile and profitability or a loss of market confidence and worse.

Michael Brown's 'Making Effective Media Happen' is a one-stop solution, showing how to prepare and deliver successful communications, deal with difficult interviewers and get your message across firmly and confidently.

Brown has worked both sides of the fence, starting as a TV journalist in 1977 and now as a media consultant, coaching companies on how to relate to the media.

One of the best things about this guide is the author's integrity. Some PR practitioners believe media success relates to how much spin you put on a story. Brown's philosophy is based on providing a win-win for all players: So, you are treated professionally; the journalist gets a good story; and the public is informed.

The book covers a variety of relevant topics including:

* Understanding the media
* How to write a press release
* How to handle media inquiries
* Making the news
* Preparing for an interview
* Conducting an interview

Brown offers a lot of common sense and practical tips for successful media relations. This includes the full gamut of experiences you can expect when facing the media, ranging from what types of journalists you can encounter to what types of interviews you can experience (phone, in-person, studio).

'Making Effective Media Happen' provides an excellent introduction to the media in all its guises. The book includes checklists, activities and tools for developing media skills. It also explains the law and the media, including important issues such as defamation, sub judice and 'off the record' comments. It even includes a short meditation exercise to prepare yourself for an interview.

In addition, the guide features handy worksheets that refer to all the major sections of the book. So readers have the best of both worlds ~ a quick snapshot of information when they need it and a workbook for ongoing use.

'Making Effective Media Happen' is a must for anyone in the media eye or any commercial writer who wishes to gain a greater understanding of this vital market.

Makes meeting easier and more effective.......2003-11-27

Meetings.

Just the utterance of the word is enough to make most people dread it. And that's because many meetings fail to deliver what they promise due to poor decision making, the wrong participants, the wrong strategy or any number of reasons.

Meetings are a fact of working life, and there will be times when enterprising writers not only attend but also conduct them ~ be they meetings with clients, business pitches or seminars and workshops promoting your services.

This book will give you the foundation you need to conduct and participate in meetings with success. While some of the material is common sense, it covers the subject admirably, offering a variety of tips, techniques and strategies that cover all kinds of encounters. Topics include:

* Preparing for a meeting
- defining the agenda
- deciding how to run the meeting

* Conducting a meeting
- how to present
- behavioral aspects of a meeting
- communication and leadership styles

* Participating in a meeting

* How to deal with difficult people and situations
- conflict resolution style
- problem solving meetings
- multicultural meetings

* Communication skills
- Assertiveness
- Non-verbal communication
- Persuasive strategies

Of particular interest to freelancers are the chapters ~ 'Making a Presentation' and 'Strategies, tools and activities', which provide solid advice on structuring material, opening and closing remarks, answering questions as well as using audio-visual aids.

Also of importance are the chapters ~ 'Taking Minutes' and 'Writing it all up and getting action' ~ which deal with note-taking and reporting of the minutes. While the chapters include rudimentary guidance on writing (ie use active voice rather than passive, etc), they do offer helpful information on how to structure the minutes of a meeting and ensure items are actionable and people are accountable.

This is a handy reference guide which is easy to read and understand. 'Making Meetings Happen' is primarily designed to be used as a workbook. It features checklists in every chapter as well as worksheets and exercises, so that readers can workshop and hone their skills.

Great information concisely written for busy professionals.......2001-09-25

Our company library included a copy of Robert Burns' "Making Meetings Happen". This book offers busy professionals everything they should need to improve the meetings they lead and the meetings they attend. Although some of the material is common sense or "you've heard it before", Mr. Burns takes a fresh approach to the topic of meetings and presents it in a very easy to read, concise, entertaining way. Excellent real life examples of meeting situations and how to improve one's approach to handling difficult attendees, hidden agendas, and the inevitable time wasters. Mr. Burns provides many checklists and other practical tools to use for analyzing meetings. I would recommend this book to everyone that attends or conducts meetings.

Honest help for Act 6.......2007-01-12

This is a great reference with a lot of useful tips. It's not afriad to point out some of Act's shortcomings. This is really useful when you're trying to do something that should be easy and obvious (like look up some sales/opportunities and then run a report based on your look-up) and you can't figure out how to do it. The ACT manual is no help because it can't be done, so of course they don't have any instructions on how to do it.

Act for Dummies is honest about what Act can and cannot do and offers great work arounds, tips and shortcuts. The author's website is also a lot of help.

No information on synchronizing.......2005-06-02

While this book does explain how to manage contacts, there is absolutely no information on the most difficult part of Act!: How to synchronize. Do not buy this book if you are looking how share databases with other users. Although there is a chapter titled, "Sharing information with others", there is no mention of how to synchronize!

Act! is a program that is as good as you want it to be:.......2004-12-30

I've used Act! 6 as long as it has been out. Prior to that, I struggled through buggy earlier versions, going back ten years or so, or however long they've been out. For my use, contact management, I've looked at other programs and have not seen any program any better than Act!, but then again, I'm used to this program. If I had to do it all over again, I would still go with Act!, but I would read this Act! for Dummies book from cover to cover. For the first few years I only learned what I felt I had to learn. And, because of that my knowledge base was limited, which resulted in Act! having a limited value to me. I can tell you that most the people in our company that use Act! don't use it like they should. They don't recognize the program's power to make them more efficient and organized. Most people will continue to use their old methods of organization, i.e., hand written Day Timer methods, etc., will never actually use the appointment scheduling features, and then tell people that Act! simply isn't helping them much. Little do they know that Act! is the most powerful organizational program that they can buy, from my view, and all they need to do is learn it and use it. It took me time, but now I have six sales people under me, who travel. They all synchronize daily, so that I can schedule things for them to do, or they can flag notes for me to read, and we're always on top of our priorities. They can be in a motel in Lansing Michigan, and me in my office in Reno, Nevada, and we're all over our responsibilities as if we're in the same office. If something important slips through the crack, it's because someone isn't using their Act! program, or they aren't using it correctly. This program is like an incredibly powerful tool if put into the hands of someone who wants to succeed, while if put in the wrong hands it will not be used, it will be useless. The learning curve can take a very long time, as it did with me, simply because I didn't want to learn any more than I had to learn, to deal with my immediate needs. The power in this program can not be unleashed unless you do more than what I did, and take the time to learn it, and make sure you work it. Some of my sales people don't even open the program in the morning for hours. How can this program help these people? But, little by little, as they see how great this program can be, they are coming around. I recommend contacting an Act! consultant, and pay them a kings ransom if necessary, but learn this program faster than your competition can, simply by reading this book from cover to cover TWICE if you have to. And, every time you need to learn more, don't put it off, learn it now. Time is too valuable not to put this program to work for you. You can manager yourself, a crew of people, while also managing a powerful mass mail (or email) marketing program with this program if you are smart enough to learn this program as fast as you can. There is simply no other program with this kind of power that I've ever seen. I'm sold on this program again and again, as I find ways to take advantage of its horsepower. Managing a database of contacts couldn't be done at this level without Act! But, I don't give it five stars yet, until Act! decides to put on more traveling seminars, so I can send our sales people to them in our own town at least once a year. Act!, get working on that, will you? Then again, don't let my competition learn to use Act! In that respect, it's a secret weapon.

CUT TO THE CHASE AND BUY THIS BOOK.......2004-02-26

ACT6! for Dummies is not only extremely informative, it is fun and easy to read. It is a great starting place to learn the many aspects of the program and it is a great reference once you are using the program regularly. If you can figure out how to use this program to its fullest by using the book supplied by ACT, you are probably not in sales, you have a lot of extra time on your hands, and you love to watch paint dry. Unless you are selling real estate in South Florida and one of my competitors, buy ACT6! for Dummies and get yourself on track fast.

Take me by the hand and show me everything.......2004-02-22

I'm not a computer buff so I bought this book and was gratefully taken through an overview of the basics of Act! 6 and then the details. It not only showed how to use Act! 6, but also how to maximize the use of Act! 6.

The important thing about the book is that it is written for the reader (not in tech-speak), with a wonderful sense of humor. In fact, it's as if the author is right there with you as you go through and learn/use the program. After having used Act! 6 for a while, if I have more sophisticated needs, I look them up in the book and have the answer quickly and painlessly.

I hesitated buying Act! 6 for a while, but once I bought the program, I also bought this book. Now I am a confident and effective user.

Book Description

Modern Asian economic history has often been written in terms of Western impact and Asia's response to it. This volume argues that the growth of intra-regional trade, migration, and capital and money flows was a crucial factor that determined the course of East Asian economic development. Twelve chapters are organized around three main themes. First, economic interactions between Japan and China were important in shaping the pattern of regional industrialization. Neither Japan nor China imported technology and organizations, and attempted to "catch up" with the West alone. Japan's industrialization took place, taking advantage of the Chinese merchant networks in Asia, while the Chinese competition was a critical factor in the Japanese technological and organizational "upgrading" in the interwar period. Second, the pattern of China's integration into the international economy was shaped by the growth of intra-Asian trade, migration, and capital flows and remittances. While the Western impact was largely confined to the littoral region of China, intra-Asian trade was more directly connected with China's internal market. Both the fall of the imperial monetary system and the rise of economic nationalism in the early twentieth century reflected increasing contacts with the Asian international economy. Third, a study of intra-Asian trade and migration helps us understand the nature of colonialism and the international climate of imperialism. In spite of the adverse political environment, East Asian merchant and migration networks exploited economic opportunities, taking advantage of colonial institutional arrangements and even political conflicts. They made a contribution to national and regional economic development in the politically more favourable environment after the Second World War, by providing the valuable expertise and entrepreneurship they had accumulated prewar. The character of the international order of Asia, governed by Western powers, especially Britain, but shared also by Japan for most of the period, was "imperialism of free trade", although it eventually collapsed by the late 1930s.

Book Description

The mute gestures of advertising images are frozen for posterity by photographers and illustrators, gestures that, for better or worse, perpetuate a certain aesthetic and eventually become emblematic of a period. The images of today display the values of a society that has more interest in the body than the mind. They are technoenhanced labyrinths of unattainable appearances that leave women and men feeling horrified, estranged, and restricted by unrealistic, silent mandates. Measuring Up looks at advertising as more than just a way to extract money from unsuspecting people but as a vehicle for conveying the larger views of a confining, body-obsessed culture.

By weaving theoretical and textual insights from feminist and cultural studies with the voices of real women and men, Measuring Up offers a unique reception analysis of the effects of repetitious exposure to advertisements of perfect bodies in our everyday lives. Shields examines a particular, complex relationship between the idealized images of gender we see in advertising and our own thoughts, feelings, and behavior in relation to these images. The study is unique in presenting audience reception in terms of ethnographic data, not textual interpretations alone.

Measuring Up engages with and informs current theoretical debates within these sometimes complementary and sometimes contradictory literatures: feminist media studies, feminist film theory, critical social theory, cultural studies, and critical ethnography. This is an important work that explores the forms and channels of power used in one of the most insidious and overt means of mass influence in popular culture.

Customer Reviews:

This book does not measure up.......2005-03-25

Measuring Up just does not measure up and leaves a lot to be desired. Very early on in the book the authors' position against the use of any kind of potentially hurtfull advertising is made crystal clear. The authors are advocating a dramatic change in how advertising is done in our society under the pretence of trying to "inform the public" about how advertisements make people feel about themselves. The authors' not only do the least amount of informing as possible, they even nag at you while they do it. In chapter six the reader is told a "sob story" about a girl named Elizabeth who was so negatively impacted by advertisements in magazines that she is scared for life. In reality, Elizabeth pretty much comes off as an over-the-top drama queen. Therefore, if you want to read a book that pretty much yells at you and are interested in feministic ideals taken to the extreme, this is the book for you. However, if you are like me and do understand that advertising has an impact on people, but want a more impartial, two-sided view of the issue, this is not a book to read.
