タイトル: Orchid and the Dandelion: Why Sensitive Children Face Challenges and How All Can Thrive著者: W Thomas Boyce出版社: Vintage出版日: 2020年04月28日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。"Based on groundbreaking research that has the power to change the lives of countless children--and the adults who love them."--Susan Cain, author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts. A book that offers hope and a pathway to success for parents, teachers, psychologists, and child development experts coping with difficult children. In Tom Boyce's extraordinary new book, he explores the "dandelion" child (hardy, resilient, healthy), able to survive and flourish under most circumstances, and the "orchid" child (sensitive, susceptible, fragile), who, given the right support, can thrive as much as, if not more than, other children. Boyce writes of his pathfinding research as a developmental pediatrician working with troubled children in child-development research for almost four decades, and explores his major discovery that reveals how genetic make-up and environment shape behavior. He writes that certain variant genes can increase a person's susceptibility to depression, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and antisocial, sociopathic, or violent behaviors. But rather than seeing this "risk" gene as a liability, Boyce, through his daring research, has recast the way we think of human frailty, and has shown that while these "bad" genes can create problems, they can also, in the right setting and the right environment, result in producing children who not only do better than before but far exceed their peers. Orchid children, Boyce makes clear, are not failed dandelions; they are a different category of child, with special sensitivities and strengths, and need to be nurtured and taught in special ways. And in The Orchid and the Dandelion, Boyce shows us how to understand these children for their unique sensibilities, their considerable challenges, their remarkable gifts.

Discourse Strategies (Studies in Interactional Sociolinguistics, Series Number 1)
◆商品名:Discourse Strategies (Studies in Interactional Sociolinguistics, Series Number 1)To understand the role of language in public life and the social process in general, we need first a closer understanding of how linguistic knowledge and social factors interact in discourse interpretation. This volume is a major advance towards that understanding. Professor Gumperz here synthesizes fundamental research on communication from a wide variety of disciplines - linguistics, sociolinguistics, anthropology and non-verbal communication - and develops an original and broadly based theory of conversational inference which shows how verbal communication can serve either between individuals of different social and ethnic backgrounds. The urgent need to overcome such barriers to effective communication is also a central concern of the book. Examples of conversational exchanges as well as of longer encounters, recorded in the urban United States, village Austria, South Asia and Britain, and analyzed to illustrate all aspects of the analytical approach, and to show how subconscious cultural presuppositions can damagingly affect interpretation of intent and judgement of interspeaker attitude. The volume will be of central interest to anyone concerned with communication, whether from a more academic viewpoint or as a professional working, for example, in the fields of interethnic or industrial relations.

The Global Cold War: Third World Interventions and the Making of Our Times
◆商品名:The Global Cold War: Third World Interventions and the Making of Our TimesThe Cold War shaped the world we live in today - its politics, economics, and military affairs. This book shows how the globalization of the Cold War during the last century created the foundations for most of the key conflicts we see today, including the War on Terror. It focuses on how the Third World policies of the two twentieth-century superpowers - the United States and the Soviet Union - gave rise to resentments and resistance that in the end helped topple one superpower and still seriously challenge the other. Ranging from China to Indonesia, Iran, Ethiopia, Angola, Cuba, and Nicaragua, it provides a truly global perspective on the Cold War. And by exploring both the development of interventionist ideologies and the revolutionary movements that confronted interventions, the book links the past with the present in ways that no other major work on the Cold War era has succeeded in doing.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Learn German with the Augsburg Saga - B2 German Reader The Augsburg Saga ? German Reader Series, #4【電子書籍】[ Brian Smith ]
<p><strong>Learn German with the Augsburg Saga ? B2 German Reader (B2 Omnibus)</strong></p> <p>Learn German through immersive storytelling, historical realism, and carefully controlled B2-level German ー in one continuous, demanding, and rewarding volume.</p> <p><strong>Learn German with the Augsburg Saga ? B2 German Reader (B2 Omnibus)</strong> brings together all five B2 novellas into a single, coherent reading experience covering the years 1929 to 1945. This omnibus combines the complete B2 sequence into approximately <strong>173,000 words</strong> (print edition approx. <strong>730 pages</strong>), offering sustained, serious reading practice for advanced learners and students preparing for C1.</p> <p>Set mainly in Augsburg and southern Germany, these stories follow the Hartwig family as everyday life becomes increasingly shaped by economic collapse, political radicalization, war, persecution, and the breakdown of familiar routines. The focus remains on ordinary settings: workshops, offices, kitchens, pharmacies, stairwells, radios, forms, letters, and quiet conversations behind closed doors. History is not explained from above ー it enters daily life gradually, often without being named.</p> <p>At B2, German becomes fully expressive.<br /> Sentences grow longer and more layered. Vocabulary becomes more exact. Meaning often unfolds across scenes rather than single lines. The language reflects how adults speak, think, hesitate, and adapt ー while remaining controlled and accessible for learners who want to build real reading confidence.</p> <p><strong>What this Omnibus includes:</strong></p> <p>? Five complete B2 novellas (B2.1?B2.5)<br /> ? Short English introductions before each novella (historical orientation, main characters)<br /> ? German-only main texts written consistently at B2 level<br /> ? Chapter summaries, comprehension questions, and full-sentence answers<br /> ? Long-form narrative immersion across all five books<br /> ? Quiet, realistic storytelling focused on everyday experience<br /> ? Historically grounded scenes from 1929?1945: economic crisis, bureaucracy, deportations, air raids, absence, exhaustion, and survival</p> <p><strong>Why this approach works</strong></p> <p>Most advanced readers rely on short texts or isolated articles. The Augsburg Saga instead offers <strong>long-form immersion</strong> through a continuous family narrative that spans multiple CEFR levels (A1?C1). Because characters, settings, and relationships return again and again, vocabulary and structures become familiar through context and memory ー not memorization.</p> <p>At B2, grammar appears naturally inside meaningful scenes: administrative language, indirect speech, restrained dialogue, and descriptive precision develop organically through story.</p> <p><strong>Who this book is for:</strong></p> <p>? Learners progressing from B1 who want sustained reading practice<br /> ? Advanced self-study readers seeking serious, well-edited material<br /> ? Teachers looking for reliable, chapter-based B2 reading content<br /> ? History-interested readers who value calm, realistic narration<br /> ? Students preparing for C1 who want a controlled transition to independent reading</p> <p><strong>A bridge to C1</strong></p> <p>Completing the B2 Omnibus is a major milestone.<br /> If you enjoy this volume, the Augsburg Saga continues at <strong>C1</strong>, where the story moves beyond 1945 toward reconstruction, memory, political conflict, and life in a world that increasingly resembles our own ー up to the present day.</p> <p>Read with patience.<br /> Read with attention.<br /> And let your German grow naturally through story.</p> <p><strong>Author of</strong> <em><strong>German Easy Reader Super 500</strong></em> <strong>and more German readers.</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

カラー:White◆商品名:Prayer: Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with GodRenowned pastor and New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet Timothy Keller explores the power of prayer. Christians are taught in their churches and schools that prayer is the most powerful way to experience God. But few receive instruction or guidance in how to make prayer genuinely meaningful. In Prayer, renowned pastor Timothy Keller delves into the many facets of this everyday act. With his trademark insights and energy, Keller offers biblical guidance as well as specific prayers for certain situations, such as dealing with grief, loss, love, and forgiveness. He discusses ways to make prayers more personal and powerful, and how to establish a practice of prayer that works for each reader. Dr. Keller’s previous books have sold more than one million copies. His Redeemer Presbyterian Church is not only a major presence in his home base of New York, it has also helped to launch more than two hundred fifty other churches in forty-eight cities around the world. His teachings have already helped millions, the majority of whom pray regularly. And with Prayer, he’ll show them how to find a deeper connection with God.
