Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Includes Author's Book of Shadows)

456 reviews
Scott Cunningham

Llewellyn Publications, 1993

This must be read by every Wiccan
The reason this book is so important is not because of the information it contains, but because of its historical significance to Wicca. This book provides a firm dividing line between Traditional Wicca, and what is called by some NeoWicca. As any student of Wicca should know, Wicca is a well defined religion with a very specific God and Goddess, specific rituals, and specific mysteries that are ...

Cognitive Therapy Techniques: A Practitioner's Guide

6 reviews
Robert L. Leahy

The Guilford Press, 2003

Wonderful, practical, go-to resource for the clinician.
Dr. Leahy has provided a first-class resource of techniques for the problem-solving oriented clinician to use. This book is laid out in a logical format; you are shown the technique, the rationale, given clinical vignettes, possible obstacles, cross-references to other techniques to be used in conjunction or perhaps instead of a particular method, as well as a homework assignment for the ...

Vaccine Safety Manual for Concerned Families and Health Practitioners: Guide to Immunization Risks and ...

6 reviews
Neil Z. Miller

New Atlantean Press, 2008

Extraordinary Book for Necessary Due Diligence
I was not vaccinated as a child. With the sparse information on vaccines that was available at the time, my parents did their research and elected to raise me without medical intervention. I always seemed healthier than my vaccinated peers, who were sick many times each year. I rarely became ill, and when I did get sick, I healed quickly, always without allopathic medicine. Of course, ...

The Volatility Surface: A Practitioner's Guide (Wiley Finance)

8 reviews
Jim Gatheral

Wiley, 2006

Applying models to the real world
The book is a great guide to understanding the different models used on Wall Street to capture the intricacies of modeling and pricing derivatives. The books focus of using models as a tool and NOT a solution is a great reminder to both traders and salespeople. This summarized when the author describes the pricing of a digital cliquet. "Those sellers using local Vol models will certainly ...

Anatomy of Hatha Yoga: A Manual for Students, Teachers, and Practitioners

71 reviews
H. David Coulter

Body and Breath, 2001

Extremely informative
As I'm writing this, my copy of Anatomy of Hatha Yoga is resting on my lap. I'm only on page 47 and I feel that I have already learned enough to make this book well worth what I paid for it. Although it can get very technical at times and might be a little frustrating for people without knowledge of anatomy and physiology, the author breaks things down using easy to understand analogies and ...

QSB Consulting, 2006

Outstanding Reference Text
I have been a Lean Six Sigma practitioner for over 12 years (MBB since 1995) and this is by far the best reference text I have found. Highly recommended regardless of level of skill or position in the organization.

The text book is very easy to read, and provides good information. It is a book that will be useful in the future. It includes information on each of the different state's rules and regulations for practicing as a practitioner.

This is a great little book. It is written in a light style that makes it easy to read and digest the principles that Jim spells out. If you have ever tried to make a change and been unsuccessful in accomplishing your goal this little book will help you to understand why you failed and how you can increase your chance of success. I found it to be helpful both with my own personal goals and in ...

Child Development, Second Edition: A Practitioner's Guide (Social Work Practice with Children and Families)

5 reviews
Douglas Davies

The Guilford Press, 2004

The ESSENTIAL book on development!
There are far too many books out there on development that drown readers with boring facts and research statistics. This is the first book I have read in 10 years that is interesting, clinically sounds, easy to read, and very informative. Douglas Davies writes a book that is a must for any practitioner/therapist interested in working with kids on developmental issues. His book gives a ...

Active Portfolio Management: A Quantitative Approach for Producing Superior Returns and Controlling Risk

7 reviews
Richard C. Grinold, Ronald N. Kahn

McGraw-Hill, 1999

This is the seminal text for Quantitative Finance
If you work for one of the top alpha quant shops (Barclays, Goldman, etc.), this text is a the proverbial must read. These are the guys that essentially invented quantitative finance in its modern form, building upon the [only somewhat applicable] concepts of Sharpe and Rosenberg and demonstrating how they can be harnassed to drive alpha. Anybody who has given this text a poor review obviously ...

Observing the User Experience: A Practitioner's Guide to User Research

10 reviews
Mike Kuniavsky

Morgan Kaufmann, 2003

Must have for user experience professionals!
I'm always recommending this book to my colleagues. This is not a book that is meant to be read cover to cover. It's more of a desk top reference for all kinds of user research techniques. I've found it to be very comprehensive. Buy it, you won't regret it!

Schema Therapy: A Practitioner's Guide

5 reviews
Jeffrey E. Young, Janet S. Klosko, ...

The Guilford Press, 2006

Excellent presentation of an effective therapy
As a psychologist who has utilized Schema Therapy for several years I found that this work far surpassed my expectations. Schema Therapy, which originally evolved from cognitive therapy, integrates theory and technques from various fields, including behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, gestalt therapy and object relations. This theoretical synthesis is presented in a remarkably straightforward ...

Family Nurse Practitioner Certification Prep Exams

15 reviews
Amelie Hollier, Mari J. Wirfs

Advanced Practice Education Associates, 2004

Great resource for studying!
I used this book of exam questions and explanations from cover to cover along with the Margaret Fitzpatrick NP Study Review Course for a month prior to taking the AANP exam. I passed and felt I learned so much through this process. This book could probably be a little more current, yet I found so much information that certainly doesn't change from year to year with practice theory, assessment, ...

An Introduction to Clinical Emergency Medicine: Guide for Practitioners in the Emergency Department

8 reviews
Swaminatha V. Mahadevan, Gus M. Garmel

Cambridge University Press, 2005

This book was money well spent!!!!!!
This book is AWESOME. I am a Stanford medical student and found this book to be THE MOST VALUABLE BOOK I HAVE BOUGHT! Why? Several reasons! First, this book is organized differently. Normally, books are organized by system (renal, cardio, pulmonary) and later offer disease descriptions. This book offers a more realistic approach as each chapter explores a symptom and offers multiple ...

Making Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Work: Clinical Process for New Practitioners

6 reviews
Deborah Roth Ledley, Brian P. Marx, ...

The Guilford Press, 2005

A must-read for practitioners of cognitive behavioral therapy
This is one of those books that I regret not having when I was beginning with cognitive behavioral therapy. The authors synthesize all the crucial information to help therapists make CBT work. Readers will dramatically increase their comfort, confidence, and outcomes with delivering CBT. I used this book with graduate students I supervised and they loved it!
