    Johnson-Bennett shares real cases to illustrate various problems and explains how she arrives at an appropriate solution through behavior modification. Her method requires a positive approach to correcting the behavior rather than punishment.

    Design is how it works."-Steve Jobs There's a new race in business to embrace "design thinking." Yet most executives have no clue what to make of the recent buzz about design. It's rarely the subject of business retreats. It's not easily measurable. To many, design is simply a crapshoot. Drawing on interviews with top executives such as Virgin's Richard Branson and Nike's Mark Parker, Jay Greene illuminates the methods of companies that rely on design to stand out in their industries. From the experiences of those at companies from Porsche to REI to Lego, we learn that design isn't merely about style and form. The heart of design is rethinking the way products and services work for customers in real life. Greene explains how: -Porsche pit its designers against each other to create its bestselling Cayenne SUV -Clif listened intently to customers, resulting in the industry-changing Luna energy bar -OXO paid meticulous attention to the details, turned its LiquiSeal mug from an abysmal failure into one of its greatest successes -LEGO started saying no to its designers-saving its brick business in the process Greene shows how important it is to build a culture in which design is more than an after-the-fact concern-it's part of your company's DNA. Design matters at every stage of the process. It isn't easy, and it increases costs, but it also boosts profits, sometimes to a massive extent. In an increasingly competitive marketplace, design represents the best chance you have of transcending your competitors.

    It does not help that ancient religious texts have portrayed “miracles” as extraordinary events beyond the comprehension of the average person.In his latest book Allowing Divine Intervention, Richard Dotts explains how miracles and divine interventions are not reserved for the select few, but can instead be experienced by anyone willing to change their current perceptions of reality. Instead of writing another book filled with stories of other people’s miracles and tales of divine intervention which may make good bedtime reading but be of little practical help, Dotts shares the simple steps one needs to follow to experience miracles in their own lives. Miracles are deeply personal affairs that can occur on a regular basis for anyone. The Universe is so ready to intervene on our behalf that when such interventions occur, their meanings will be instantly made known and clear to us at a very deep level. Therefore, Dotts teaches that we should never use what other people’s experiences to set expectations of our own. Trying to “replicate” someone else’s “miracles” is thus a recipe for disappointment. Perhaps the most practice-oriented book ever written by Richard Dotts, Allowing Divine Intervention draws on Dotts’ own experiences, including his own struggles with depression and conflicts, and the lessons he has learnt from them. Dotts uses everyday anecdotes to explain: * How to deal with pressing problems in your life as they occur in a spiritual way* The 3-step approach to asking for divine intervention, no matter the outer circumstances or the issue* How to allow the Universe to “get through” to you with creative insights, solutions and ideas that the greatest thinkers and artists in our generation often speak of* Is it alright to ask the Universe to fulfill your “small” requests?* One kind of requests you should never ask the Universe for* What are synchronicities (a concept coined by Carl Jung), and how to allow more meaningful synchronicities in your life* The Quantum Physics “observer” effect, and how it relates to a key principle with regards to creating miracles in your life* Why you should "dial" 955 whenever you need a divine intervention, and not 911! (Understanding the 95-5 code is the fastest way to allow divine interventions into your life)And more…

    He also harbored a terrifying secret: his attraction to men. As Strub explored the capital’s political and social circles, he discovered a parallel world where powerful men lived double lives shrouded in shame. When the AIDS epidemic hit in the early 1980s, Strub was living in New York and soon found himself attending “more funerals than birthday parties.” Scared and angry, he turned to radical activism to combat discrimination and demand research. Strub takes you through his own diagnosis and inside ACT UP, the organization that transformed a stigmatized cause into one of the defining political movements of our time. From the New York of Studio 54 and Andy Warhol’s Factory to the intersection of politics and burgeoning LGBT and AIDS movements, Strub’s story crackles with history. He recounts his role in shocking AIDS demonstrations at St. Patrick’s Cathedral as well as at the home of US Sen­ator Jesse Helms. With an astonishing cast of characters, including Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal, Keith Haring, Bill Clinton, and Yoko Ono, this is a vivid portrait of a tumultuous era: “A page-turner…[with] the suspense and horror of Paul Monette’s memoir Borrowed Time and the drama of Larry Kramer’s play The Normal Heart….What a lot of action—and life—there is in this gripping book” (The Washington Post).
