Great educational tool for toddlers
These Joyberry books are wonderful educational tools for toddlers. The books have large print, basic language, and nice intriguing pictures. My 2 year old often picks these books over the many other books that she has. She loves to turn the pages herself and talk about what is happening on each page. The best part is, she is learning about really important social and environmental skills while having fun doing it. All of sudden, she is talking to me about taking medicine, and learning to express being sick. The CD's are great for the car too. She asks to listen to them all the time. I highly recommend this series of books. ... Read more

Great Glenn Doman!
An amazing book that teaches parents, step by step, how can we help our children to be phisically superb. It includes fabolous charts about the brain stages development and the different competences that a child, between 0 months and 6 years, should accomplish, with detail exercises and games for you to practice with your kids. I totally recommend this book!

Excellent Book!!!!!
I love this book! I got it when my daughter was about 18 months old.We have made the dowel to hang on in the doorway, a balance beam, and recently made monkey bars and a trapeze, all in our house!She absolutely loves them and it takes up so much time during the day and is so good for her development, instead of us sitting around bored or doing the same old things.She is 2 years 4 months and can do the monkey bars, with my help.Her friends who come over also love all these things too! I have learned so much from this book, and other Doman books, it really has changed my thinking about babies and small kids, and my whole approach to raising them.

I am looking forward to doing the newborn and baby things with my baby who is due in a couple months.You can pick and choose what you feel comfortable with.I will not be putting my baby to sleep on her tummy, so I just ignore that part of the book.We have already made a crawling track for the baby and are excited to see her use it and get mobile and actually be able to do stuff instead of be stuck on her back upside down!I would also recommend the book How Smart Is Your Baby for birth to one year.

I cannot recommend this enough!

On my personal experience it works!
I can tell only on my own experience with my baby, the book works, largely has been said nobody teach us to be parents, well somehow this books taught me :) and has made the experience of raising a kid more enjoyable, usually with the first child we overprotect it but the book points lot of common sense along with practical methods that really has helped our baby greatly in just few months, she barely creep at 7 months and we started with the method at 10 months, now she is 1 year and 1 month (3 months later) she already walks and start to talk and climb stairs i mean she has developed so quickly and showed me that giving enough opportunity and encourage your baby while playing can do wonders, this is my first child and really feel I'm giving a great opportunity to develop her potential.

HOW TO TEACH YOUR BABY TO BE PHYSICALLY SUPERB
THIS BOOK TEACH THE PARENTS THE IMPORTANCE OF PUTTING THE BABY OVER THEIR
TUMMY SINCE BIRTH. THE IMPORTANCE OF CREEPING, CRAWLING AND BE ON THE FLOOR.WE ARE LIMITING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FOUNDATION OF THEIR BRAINS.
THE FIRST YEAR IN THE MOST IMPORTANT IN OUR LIVES, IS WHERE THE BRAIN
MAKES THE FIRST SYNAPSES STRONGER. WITH THIS DISCIPLINE WE AS PARENTS CAN
PREVENT ADH AND ALL THOSE SPEECH AND LEARNING PROBLEMS THAT ARE SO COMMON
TODAY; BECAUSE TODAY THE CHILDREN GOES TO DAYCARE SINCE TWO MONTHS ALL.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IT'S BEEN DOING SINCE 1947.
IF SOMEONE OUT THERE CAN HELP TO EDUCATE MORE ABOUT "HUMAN NEUROLOGICAL
ORGANIZATION" THE WORLD WOULD BE BETTER. THANKS

overhyped book
I was somewhat disappointed with this book.It has one simple tip, keep your child on the stomach as much as possible.Ok, so thats great, the child will grow faster physically, maybe grow faster mentally also, as per what he says.

But I expected the book to be much more comprehensive.There are not that many exercises.Its largely a single point agenda on keeping the child on stomach.I can tell you that in one line.

Product Description
A world-renowned child psychiatrist offers a groundbreaking new perspective on how stress and violence affect children's brains--and how they can be helped to heal

What happens when a young brain is traumatized? How does terror, abuse, or disaster affect a child's mind--and how can that mind recover?

Child psychiatrist Bruce Perry has helped children faced with unimaginable horror: genocide survivors, murder witnesses, kidnapped teenagers, and victims of family violence. In The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog, he tells their stories of trauma and transformation through the lens of science, revealing the brain's astonishing capacity for healing. Deftly combining unforgettable case histories with his own compassionate, insightful strategies for rehabilitation, Perry explains what exactly happens to the brain when a child is exposed to extreme stress-and reveals the unexpected measures that can be taken to ease a child's pain and help him grow into a healthy adult. Through the stories of children who recover-physically, mentally, and emotionally-from the most devastating circumstances, Perry shows how simple things like surroundings, affection, language, and touch can deeply impact the developing brain, for better or for worse.

In this deeply informed and moving book, Bruce Perry dramatically demonstrates that only when we understand the science of the mind can we hope to heal the spirit of even the most wounded child. ... Read more

Truly inspired book
I really enjoyed this book.It was well-written and what could have been complex science was easy to understand. Mostly I loved the compassion given to these children and the desire of Dr. Perry to look beyond his own ego to learn from them and be able to apply the newfound knowledge to all the children he treated.Another reviewer said it brought back bad memories, and it did for me as well, but on the contrary, I felt it helped validate some of my fears (at least understand why they are there and so pervasive) and understand some of my own feelings and tendencies, having experienced traumatic events when I was younger.

I would highly recommend this book!

A
This book is extream, the stories in the book are heart breaking to the point that you get to think that the author is writing fixion. However,according to the author the stories are events from real life. I bought this book to learn how to help my son who has PSD and ADHD,Nonetheless, I do not recomend this book to someone who has been abused, I was abused by the father of my children and so my children, the book brought flashbacks and emotinal feelings that are hard to deal with it. Its a great book to learn about how abuse and neglet can change the brain, but it can be also a torture to someone who suffered abuse similar to the stories in the book.

The last thing is the author uses some medical vocabulary that make it hard to understand.

However, its a great book that can help us to understand the damaged that abuse can cause.

Amazing
I read this book in my junior year of high school and it really helped me realize that I want to have a career in a similar field. I thought I may have wanted to do something in this field but now I definitely want to go into child pyschology. Perry writes so thoroughly and eloquently that any reader will be drawn in. This book is a must read for anyone who is at all interested in this area.

Incredible Book
I just finished up my MSW at a local graduate school in mental health studies. This book was on the reading list for one of the courses that my colleagues were taking during their last semester. I heard so many positive things about the book that I decided to go out and purchase it myself to put on my "summer reading" list. After purchasing it, I was looking over it and began reading the first chapter with no intention of fully reading it until mid-summer, but I was immediately absorbed by the content that I just could not put it down.
Now that I just finished the book after only a few days, which is quite fast for me, I would like to read more material from these incredible authors.
I would recommend this book for any parent, child protective service worker, or mental health professional who has interest in understanding the psyche of attachment theory with traumatized children.
The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog is a poignant group of true stories that some unfortunate children endure and demonstrates their resilience that triumphs in most cases in order to overcome the atrocities of their past. The book is written in easy language for "general readers" so that scientific and medical terminology is easily digested.
I have gotten so much out of this book that I will certainly reread it again in the near future.

Humbling book
This book makes you think of how lucky you are to not have grown up with even a remote similarity to these children in this book.Excellent reading and learning experience. ... Read more

Great evidence-based guideline for healthcare practitioners
This book really helped me to understand fully the concept of evidence-based medicine and how to integrate it to my profession. I am a physical therapist and I have learned a lot from this book. The authors provided links that would help the reader that can help in practicing evidence-based medicine. Overall, it is an excellent book!

Well done, but....
This book is well done from an educational perspective. You'll find nice diagrams, figures, a CD-ROM, and everything you need in order to assimilate it nicely. References are provided and well organized.

As usual when it comes to EBM (and paradoxically), it lacks a little bit in introspection, like for example when it claims that basically the only real limitation of EBM is that the physician needs to acquire new skills, while other criticisms (such as the "cookbook" approach or the fact that it might tend toward saving money against the benefit of the patients) are dismissed as "concerns" on how the method is (or will be) used. The authors genuinely sound like thinking EBM should always be applied everywhere to every problem, and that borders with black-vs-white thinking, which is dangerous in and of itself.

However, if you are interested in knowing EBM, how to apply it, where to find resources, etc, this book is most definitely for you.

Book Review
Excellent review of evidence based medicine.Concise and to the point.Have used it multiple times during residency and fellowship.

The first and still the best
Sackett's EBM is the Bible for anyone conducting systematic review. It is THE how-to guide for clinical medicine SR and a great starting point for thinking about SR in the social sciences. Thank you Dr. Sackett for bringing SR to the masses.

Evidence Based Medicine
This is an excellent "how to" manual for those who are serious about learning how to apply evidence based medicine principles.Lots of folks talk about "evidence based medicine" but few really know what it means.This is obviously intended as a teaching tool for residents but is equally useful for any physician who is interested in learning the principles required to do the best job for his/her patient.The size and summary cards are handy for carrying with you wherever you may need them!Easy to read but with great substance. ...

Excellent tool to help 2 year olds learn how to get dressed
I highly recommend this book (and the entire Teach me About series by Joy Berry) to teach a 2 year old about getting dressed. They are at the age that they want to be dressing themselves, and seeing the nice pictures and simple sentences helps encourage the confidence they need to do it themselves. She loves to turn the pages herself and talk about what is happening in the cute pictures. This is a great educational tool. ... Read more

A manual for enhancing physical, mental and spiritual health
20 years after buying this book I still find it the best book I have seen on meditation.An easy to follow, practical guide to several different methods of meditation, this book also looks at comparative religious experiences of meditation/prayer/mysticism. James Hewitt started me off on the path of meditation, and much of his advice ties in with what I have since learnt from my own experience and from the teachings of a Theravadan monk.An excellent guide for people of any religious persuasion or none.Highly suitable for first time meditators and for delving deeper. ...
