Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. From Marc Woods: "I love to read and listen to inspirational stories, but sometimes it is difficult to apply any of their content to your own life. In writing "Personal Best" I wanted to share my life experiences, to relate how I dealt with, and overcame, the different challenges that I faced and then went on to achieve success. But, more importantly, I wanted to do it in a way that might be useful to others. In beating cancer as a teenager, I may have lost a leg, but I gained a new respect for life and a second chance. My experience taught me to approach life in a different way. It taught me to measure myself against my potential and not against others. It taught me about personal responsibility. It taught me that life is about being the best person you can be. If you are lucky, life teaches you what you don't learn at school. I've been very lucky. I've learnt some tough, but invaluable lessons about life on my journey. I'd like to share those lessons with you". "Personal Best" is a truly inspirational book, written with great honesty, compassion and humility. Marc's ability to overcome adversity and triumph in so many diverse areas is an example to us all. His immense sporting achievements and his work on behalf of the Teenage Cancer Trust is unequalled and his indomitable spirit shines through". (Sarah, the Duchess of York). "Marc has a remarkable story and is an absolute inspiration". (Roger Daltrey). The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This book explores views about how children think and learn. It outlines Piaget's theory of cognitive development and explores the views of some of his major critics. Did Piaget underestimate children's intellectual abilities? Did he misconstrue the relationships between language and thinking? Does his theory misguide the teacher? The author compares Piaget's approach with those offered by Bruner, Vygotsky and other researchers, considering points of disagreement and establishing areas of common ground. But these ideas stand or fall on the contribution that they can make to those actually working in the classroom. The author therefore goes on to consider just what pressing contemporary issues in education stand to gain from them. Do children's accents and dialects contribute to their success or failure at school? What is the value of literacy and why do some children have such problems in reading and spelling? Why does an understanding of mathematics prove so elusive for many children? These are just some of the issues of practical relevance to this book. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Instant Anatomy is quite different from the vast number of other anatomy books. The clever structure of the information facilitates accurate and speedy retrieval of anatomical facts, and is very popular with students. Two features make the book especially useful. First, it stresses anatomical relationships which are even more important now with the increased use of cross sectional scanning and computer generated reconstructional imaging. Second, it allows structures such as blood vessels and nerves to be seen in their entirety instead of regionally as they are so often described in standard textbooks. The section on the autonomic nervous system has been expanded in this second edition to meet the needs of students who often find this area of knowledge so difficult. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Coping with numbers is not an easy task. Some managers panic just at the mere thought of it, while others think that Statistics and Operational Research are too theoretical to be relevant to the day-to-day needs of their organizations. David Targett solves both these problems by tackling them together. The key idea of Coping With Numbers is not to plod through the curriculum of an academic subject, but to analyze and respond to the real needs of managers, businessmen and students. Targett believes that some aspects of Statistics and Operational Research are more relevant than others - so these are the ones on which he concentrates. He demonstrates how managers could understand and use numbers if they had the confidence and the know-how to treat numbers as they do words - as tools. Coping with Numbers provides the know-how and builds the confidence. The book describes the newest non-technical methods for analyzing data - especially those long tables of figures which strike fear into the number-shy manager's heart - an area all too often neglected today, but vital in this computer age. It discusses the best techniques of Statistics and Operational Research - never previously handled in one book - and shows how they can aid the manager. It includes many revealing real life case studies, and throughout the emphasis is on the practical - an approach which recognizes that some people will want to use the techniques themselves, while others need to know how to supervise those who work for and with them. And, based on his highly successful lecture courses at the London Business School, David Targett's comprehensive and relatively non-technical book is also ideal, given its innovative format and presentation, for self-tuition. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
