A classic guide to creating a positive classroom environment covering the most recent and relevant findings regarding behavior management in the classroom.  This new edition of Understanding and Managing Children’s Classroom Behavior has been completely updated to reflect the current functional approach to assessing, understanding and positively managing behavior within the classroom.  With its renewed focus on the concept of temperament and its impact on children’s behavior and personality, this book emphasizes changing behavior rather than labeling it.  This classic guide to helping psychologists, counselors and educators improve their ability to serve all students provides a framework to create students connected to each other to their teachers, to their families and to their communities.

The Power of Resilience: Achieving Balance, Confidence, and Personal Strength in Your Life

An inspiring guide to breaking through the psychological or emotional barriers to success and happiness.

The book is already garnering critical acclaim. Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Unsinkable Soul and The Power of Focus notes: "Brooks and Goldstein have created a uniquely wise guide."

Writing with the authority of a half century of clinical psychology practice, the authors explore the ways in which people sabotage themselves personally and professionally. They explain how negative scripts – repetitive self-defeating ways of thinking and behaving – can lead to hopelessness, depression and anxiety.

Using real life, moving stories, they describe how to re-write these scripts and cultivate inner strength and optimism in ourselves and in those around us. They propound powerful lessons on how to increase our abilities for empathy, problem solving, self-discipline, self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-confidence.
