Sensational Kids: Hope and Help for Children with Sensory Processing Disorder
39 reviews
Perigee, 2007
Great book with lots of valueable information!
This book was a lifesaver for our family. The language is easy to read and very informative. There are lots of details about sensory processing disorders and comparisons with autism and ADHD, how the different conditions overlap one another and how they stand alone. There are detailed examples of different types of SPD and how (and more imporantly why) behaviors are present with this disorder. ...

The bible of physical dysfunction
As an OT student, I've used this book more in clinic (rehab settings) than any other text I own. It is an invaluable reference for manual muscle testing and goniometery. Trombly carries over from class to clinic with ease, and I've even had OTRs borrow it during my fieldwork.

For parents searching for answers!
No book can completely answer all the questions struggling parents have, but this one gives parents of suffering children several "ah-ha!" moments. You know something is not quite right, but you can't put your finger on it until you find explanations and like parents. This is a must have book if your child has been diagnosed with any sensory disorder. Also, we recently attended several ...

Great resource. A true self-help book.
What a great book! Amy Stein tells us everything we need to know to treat ourselves. She is not holding back some advanced secret treatment that is only revealed on a for pay web site or at an expensive seminar. It is also devoid of all the psychobabble that is present in other books that cover the uro-genital area. She is above board. Highly recommended.

The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable
299 reviews
Jossey-Bass, 2002
Useful, Engaging, and Instructional
This book was given to me by the company I work for during a Leadership Development course for all managers. We discussed a short summary of the book (provided before attending the class), but were not given a copy of the book until we arrived in class. The summary sounded a bit intriguing, but does not do the book justice. I found the approach and theme of this book to be not only useful; it ...

Jossey-Bass, 2005
Outstanding text book for team building
I had read Five Dysfunctions of a Team some time ago and was impressed with the story telling approach. Then someone told me Patrick had released a follow up which I just got and read. As a sales manager with a team of salespeople this is a great text book for building a stronger team. It creates a very simple approach and then actually provides lessons and exercises and how to build the team ...
Beyond the Tears: A True Survivor's Story
34 reviews, 2008
Extremely Real and Vulnerably Raw
I just finished Lynn's book this past weekend. I found it extremely real, honest and vulnerable. I am a Childhood Sexual Trauma survivor and I now lead support groups for women who have been sexually abused. I plan to recommend Beyond the Tears as a "must read" because she does not hold back from allowing the reader to see the depths of her struggles as well as the immense shame and guilt that ...

Fabulous Resource!
I have been teaching almost 12 years and I WISH I had read this book when I was student teaching. What a FANTASTIC resource! Having read this book explains so, so very much. I found it particularly helpful in allowing me to see how some children w/ ADHD may be misdiagnosed when in fact they have SPD. In general, I found it so very easy to read b/c of it's Question and Answer format and the ...

Squirmy Wormy - A picture book aimed at developing self-management skills for children with with Autism
It's not often that I see a book which sits so comfortably across several age groups and brings useful and different information to each. Squirmy Wormy is such a book. Squirmy Wormy is, at first glance, a picture book which deals with Autism and Sensory Processing Disorder. The "story" itself is a mere 18 pages, so it's a quick and easy read but don't let that deceive you. Beneath its ...

Parenting a child with Sensory Processing Disorder
This book is wonderful for a family with a child with SPD. It doesn't cover therapy for the child but instead focuses on what the family needs to survive and thrive. It talks about relationships in the family and how to strengthen them while coping with a child with SPD. It is a must have for a family with SPD.

There are IEP suggestions and strategies for school, home, and play. I am passing this book along to my family members so they can better understand my son. I highly recommend this book to anyone who ...

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!

An engrossing space opera of epic proportions...
I have found that there is no one better at space opera than Peter Hamilton. I first read his Commonwealth series and was utterly floored, easily becoming my favorite sci fi series of all time. So I wasn't surprised in the least when I picked up The Reality Dysfunction and had the same feeling and enjoyment. You find with Hamilton that his books are huge. The intended book, parts one and ...

wonderful foreplay
Quickies served as wonderful foreplay! Several thoughts in the book provoked ideas and challenges, which have helped me to evolve into a better and more aware therapist. The highlight of the book can be found on page 174. This section discusses the therapist's exploration and evaluation of self when seeing clients. The questions were very useful. I believe I can apply this idea to every client, ...
