Help Your Child Avoid Multiple Sclerosis: A Parenting Decision

We need a cure for Multiple Sclerosis -- now!
This book is, without a doubt, the most documented book on the various aspects of MS that I've ever seen. It gives the reader realistic facts about this disease that are unknown to much of the general population. I had not realized there are so many factors which can put certain individuals into a higher risk category for developing MS. As a parent, and now a grandparent, I was totally unaware of what a great influence geography and migration have on MS. We never thought about moving to a low risk area or state. By luck, we did.

Heredity/Genetics are discussed in plain and simple language. It's an important factor in MS everyone should know about. The chapter on viruses as triggers was so interesting. The discussion on cats and dogs is alarming. The chapter dealing with sucide is also disturbing. "What Should I Be Prepared For?" puts every parent and grandparent on notice for tell-tale early symptoms and signs.

The book is written in easy to understand language and is well worth reading by all parents, as well as friends and families of those already touched by MS. It tells you like it is. Let's find a cure?

A REAL GEM! PACKED COVER TO COVER WITH GREAT ADVICE!
This is a terrific book. I would recommend it to anybody who is depressed, stressed out, nervous or alcoholic. The authors provide 50 strategies to make you happier and build your self-esteem. The book is a super easy read. It is humorous, lively and very practical. I must admit that I am kind of a self-help book fanatic (I have literally purchased hundreds of them) and I would rate this one at the top of the list. It gives numerous techniques that none of the other books even mention!!! This book will set you back about one-fifth of what it would cost to see a shrink or a personal coach for one session and will probably do a heck of a lot more. I'd give it six stars but the system only goes up to five!!! FORGET THE BIG NAME SELF-HELP TITLES. BUY THIS ONE AND GET A TON OF INFORMATION YOU HAVEN'T HEARD BEFORE THAT MAKES SENSE.

Excellent book - we use in all our trainings!
Wecurrently conduct an eight week training session for telephone volunteers desiring to participate in answering a compassionate, nonjudgemental 24-hour hotline regarding abortion alternatives. We have used this book for the past several years - we are 'nonprofessionals' and this book is well suited to our needs. Bad news! - it's being discontinued -(we can't find a copy anywhere) and we are feeling even more 'nonprofessional' as we approach a training without helping skills.

Insightful
I bought this book because I wanted to learn a little bit more about how teachers could teach various personality types. I'm not a teacher, I'm a parent. I was concerned that my child's personality was at the heart of her apparent behavioral issues in kindergarten.

This book is terrific. It highlighted the various personality types, their needs and patterns in the classroom. More importantly, it armed me with some specific strategies I plan to take to her teacher.

I highly recommend it not just for teachers but for parents looking for insights into how their children learn.

A collection of newspaper columns about ordinary people.
This book is a great collection of Jim Joseph's columns in several newspapers. Jim's book is funny but teaches a lesson that we have heroes but they are ordinary people! I Hope that many of you will read this book! (By the way he is my Grandpa)

The light in Soviet prison
By resisting the Stalin regime and creating the organizations and the atmosphere that survived those dark days, the Rebbe inspired and enabled the rebirth Yiddishkeit in all the lands of the former Soviet Union.

It is possible that without the underground movement inspired by the Rebbe instead of refusniks and the massive exodus of the 80s and 90s, Russian Jewry might have dissolved in a haze of assimilation.

In The Heroic Struggle we have Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak's own account of his ordeal. As riveting as a contemporary thriller He writes: "... sensitive and talented authors would find much material for lengthy works on the nature of human feeling and conduct by merely depicting ... the ... two hours from my arrival in the prison ... " Actually the Rebbe hasn't left much for other authors. His narrative is vividly detailed, insightful and sensitive. From the remarkably detailed description of his cell to the penetrating analyses of his captors, interrogators and fellow prisoners, the Rebbe involves the reader in his experience.

A Winning Combination
Music with a serious message equals education. If children can sing along to the radio, why not to a book. It is nothing new but the hottest artists in today's music industry getting involved makes it work even better. I really enjoyed 'Hope', this musical journey to better one's self. It was entertaining, light and fun. I am waaay over the age of 8 but I thought it was a unique and educational way to bring music and a serious message together no matter the age. The song from SHAGGY's 'HotShot' CD is from movie soundtrack fame 'For The Love Of The Game' as well. 'Hope' features the stellar voice of Prince Mydas too. The CD contains both a lyric and instrumental version for karaoke fun. Very colorful and easy on the design. Another addition to the great series that I 'Hope' continues for a very long time.
