Can't Say Enough Good Things
This book was recommended to me by my son's occupational therapist. I finally got around to reading it about six months into his therapy. My only regret is that it took me so long! It brought comfort to my husband and I that much of our child's "difficult" behaviors could be explained in such a sensible way. For instance, we never could understand why he would hit other children at daycare when ...

Seagate spends $2 million annually to teach these lessons
Intrigued by an article in the 5.26.08 issue of Fortune magazine, p113-122, I had to read this book. The article was about how Seagate spends $2 million each year for the "lord of all lords" team building exercise for 200 of it's employees (mostly engineers) -- and each day of the week-long journey is based upon one of "The Five Dsyfunctions of a Team." Before employees arrive at the event, ...

God Made Me Deficient
I am not OK the way I am. No, I am NOT. Shut up. I am deficient. God did it on purpose, but this book, thank God, gave me the ammunition to fight back, to fight Him, to put God in his place for this horrible thing he did to me. (And yet I love Him so very, very much.) From the very first exercise--tie one end of a fishing line to your ding-a-ling, tie the other end to a cinder block, then ...

Helpful Addition to the Five Dysfunctions Book
This assessment should be a required development exercise for all teams. We read The Five Dysfunctions of a Team and wanted to implement the concepts in our group, but we were not sure where to start - this was a great tool for triggering dialogue around critical issues!

I am a 48 year old female and as long as I can remember had been overweight. I also tried many programs and diets without success. When I came to Dr Runels, I remember being in such pain mentally and physically and felt as though I was too tired to do anything. After talking with him, he gave me a plan and his book. I began reading his book and I couldn't stop until I was finished. (It was ...

The Out of Sinc Child
This is the best book. I was writing a book about my son who has SI Dysfunction. He is 23 years old now. I was in Barnes and Noble looking for another book when I found this. I was blown away. I never knew there was a book like this. I could have really used this book when Marcus was little. It is so wonderful. I opened it and started reading about my son. My book is called What's Wrong With My ...

Excellent book!
X-Teams is great book for those who participate on or manage any type of team within the corporate environment. The theme is that successful teams spend more time externally focused rather than internally focused on their team itself. The last 1/3 of the book are very practical tools and tips for establishing and managing successful teams. These are concepts learned from countless interviews ...

Unabashed Fun...part 2
Quite simply, these books are a heck of a LOT of FUN. The overall quality of the writing is high. The world building is amazing. Characters, from monarchs to street rats, are believable and intriguing. The dialog is very natural and the humor is funny (this is rare in ANY genre, trust me.) The future tech is fantastic, the action is non-stop, the plot twists are imaginatively fun...and the bang ...

If you have a Kindle...
Just FYI, if you have a Kindle and are interested in this book/series, there is a compilation of all 3 (or 6 depending on how you look at it) books listed as The Night's Dawn Trilogy available for download for a little under $8. That's obviously a fair amount cheaper than buying the books individually and you don't have to lug around 3000+ pages. I am enjoying this series immensely but am only ...

Easy read... Helped me understand my child better...
There were things that were a mystery to me about my daughter from the moment she was born. She had to be swaddled tightly, or she would scream for hours. She could not sleep, unless she was in a swing. As she grew, she could/would not eat anything that was not soft in texture. She screamed like she was in pain when I brushed her teeth. Screamed and frantically cried in the bathtub. Cried ...

Cultivate your shadow hypochondriasis
Shadows Syndromes is a worthy read, in that it does a good job of highlighting the major disconnect between diagnostic categories and reality. While the DSM model has its uses (research and billing being the only two I can think of right now), it also serves to reify the notion that mental illnesses are precise, discreet disorders. Any one with an ounce of clinic experience will tell you that ...
