代理商:大苹果 EVIDENCE-BASED TRAINING METHODS: A GUIDE FOR TRAINING PROFESSIONALS
by RUTH COLVIN CLARK
亚马逊评级: 亚马逊评级 页数:280    定价:32.95 美元   上传日期:2014-5-28
英文概要: Thanks to a growing body of research evidence, we’ve learned a great deal in the last 20 years about which methods really work when training people. Yet many trainers still use time-honored methods and assume they work -- despite recent evidence to the contrary. Whether you’re a classroom instructor, training manager, or designer of e-learning, your training will be more effective when you base your methods on evidence. With this book as your guide, you can thoroughly incorporate evidence and learning psychology into your program design, development, and delivery decisions. You’ll save your organization time and money wasted on training fads that don’t work, and invest resources more productively in proven training methods. 
 
中文概要: 由于研究证据越来越多,在过去20年,我们已经了解到了大量的在训练人方面真正起作用的方法。然而,许多教练仍然使用过时的方法,并设想它们能起作用,尽管最近的证据显示了相反的结果。无论你是一个课堂讲师,培训经理还是电子学习的设计师,使用有根据的方法会让你的训练会更有效。有了这本书作为指南,你可以彻底地把证据和学习心理学运用到你的程序设计,开发和交付使用中。 你可以节省那些浪费在没有效果的培训潮流上的时间和金钱,而对成熟的训练方法更高效地投入资源。(LNL)

by ALETHEA HARAMPOLIS AND JILL RIZZO OF STUDIO CHOO
亚马逊评级: 亚马逊评级 页数:268    定价:24.95 美元   上传日期:2012-9-27
英文概要: Flower arranging has never been simpler or more enticing. The women behind Studio Choo, the hottest floral design studio in the country, have created a flower-arranging bible for today’s aesthetic. Filled with an array of stunning, easy-to-find flowers, it features 400 high-resolution photos,more than 40 step-by-step slideshows,and tappable pop-tips throughout.

The arrangements run the gamut of styles and techniques: some are wild and some are structured; some are time-intensive and some are astonishingly simple. Each one is paired with a "flower recipe"; ingredients lists specify the type and quantity of blooms needed; clear instructions detail each step; and hundreds of photos show how to place every stem. Readers will learn how to work with a single variety of flower to great effect, and to create vases overflowing with layered blooms. To top it off, the book is packed with ideas for unexpected vessels, seasonal buying guides, a source directory, a flower care primer, and all the design techniques readers need to know.

Alethea Harampolis and Jill Rizzo are the founders of Studio Choo, a San Francisco-based floral design studio that serves up fresh, wild, and sophisticated flower arrangements for any occasion. Their work has been featured in publications such as Sunset, Food & Wine, and Veranda and in the blog Design*Sponge.

by PETER A. LEVINE , MAGGIE KLINE
亚马逊评级: 亚马逊评级 页数:235    定价:17.95 美元   上传日期:2009-5-8
英文概要: The number of anxious, depressed, hyperactive and withdrawn children is staggering—and still growing! Millions have experienced bullying, violence (real or in the media), abuse or sexual molestation. Many other kids have been traumatized from more “ordinary” ordeals such as terrifying medical procedures, accidents, loss and divorce. Trauma-Proofing Your Kids sends a lifeline to parents who wonder how they can help their worried and troubled children now. It offers simple but powerful tools to keep children safe from danger and to help them “bounce back” after feeling scared and overwhelmed. No longer will kids have to be passive prey to predators or the innocent victims of life’s circumstances.

In addition to arming parents with priceless protective strategies, best-selling authors Dr. Peter A. Levine and Maggie Kline offer an antidote to trauma and a recipe for creating resilient kids no matter what misfortune has besieged them. Trauma-Proofing Your Kids is a treasure trove of simple-to-follow “stress-busting,” boundary-setting, sensory/motor-awareness activities that counteract trauma’s effect on a child’s body, mind and spirit. Including a chapter on how to navigate the inevitable difficulties that arise during the various ages and stages of development, this ground-breaking book simplifies an often mystifying and complex subject, empowering parents to raise truly confident and joyful kids despite stressful and turbulent times.

代理商:大苹果 SERPENT OF THE NILE: WOMEN AND DANCE IN THE ARAB WORLD
by WENDY BUONAVENTURA
页数:0    定价:美元   上传日期:2009-5-5
英文概要: Newly updated and lavishly illustrated, this classic celebration of female dancers of the Arab world is available in an appealing new format. "Serpent of the Nile" traces the origins of this ancient art, which survived in the face of commercialism, religious disapproval and changing times. Wendy Buonaventura demonstrates how Arabic dance came to be influenced by Western ideas about art and entertainment. But the influence was two-way. In the heyday of Orientalism, Arabic dance captured the imagination of writers and artists such as Flaubert, David Roberts and Jean-Leon Gerome, and imitators Colette and Mata Hari. Often based on common fantasies about Middle-Eastern women, this obsession produced evocative images and inspired fashion, theatre and popular entertainment. 
 
中文概要:
作者介绍: Wendy Buonaventura is an established dancer and choreographer. Her performance work was the subject of a television documentary, Making Mimi. She has written and presented programmes for BBC Radio 4, and has performed and lectured extensively throughout Europe and the USA. She is the author of I Put a Spell on You and Beauty in the East.

英文概要: This book contains no nudity. No profanity. No sexual material of any kind. And yet it just might be the most obscene thing we’ve ever published! Penis Pokey is an illustrated board book with a large die-cut hole in its center.

Will this be a terrific hit with college students, bachelorette parties, and exhibitionists of all ages? Of course! Penis Pokey is far and away thestrangest and funniest novelty book we’ve seen in a long, long time.

Every scene in Penis Pokey has one thing missing—and you have to complete the picture. Are you up to the challenge?

代理商:大苹果 HIGH HEELS AND A HEAD TORCH
by CHELSEA DUKE
页数:312    定价:美元   上传日期:2009-5-4
英文概要: There are plenty of books out there about travelling round a particular country or region; there’s a fair few about motorcycling round the world; but there’s not much that talks about the actual experience of being a backpacker. Most of those which exist are written by men - but this one isn’t. It’s written by a girl for girls, and as well as DOs and DON’Ts and hilarious anecdotes, it contains masses of brilliant advice, making it an essential travelling companion.
Written by a seasoned traveller who learnt the hard way, this book tells you how to still feel glam when your backpack is smaller than your shoe cupboard; how to cope with sharing dorms with strangers (including how to avoid being the most unpopular girl in the dorm); how to keep yourself stylishly entertained whilst spending as little money as possible and; perhaps most importantly of all, it explains the indispensable nature of the sparkly flip-flop. 
 
中文概要:
作者介绍: When Chelsea Duke took a year out to travel round the world alone, she had no idea what she was letting herself in for. Never having described herself as the outdoorsy type or stayed in a hostel before, life on the backpacker trail held some rather unpleasant surprises. However, by the end of the year she had amassed a range of survival techniques to rival Ray Mears, all of which she is generously passing on here. She is currently on a six-month trip to New Zealand.

页数:448    定价:美元   上传日期:2009-4-30
英文概要: The transport, storage and handling of goods impose a heavy burden on the environment. As concern for the environment rises, companies must take more account of the external costs of logistics associated mainly with climate change, air pollution, noise, vibration and accidents. Leading the way in current thinking on environmental logistics, Green Logistics provides a unique insight on the environmental impacts of logistics and the actions that companies and governments can take to deal with them. It is written by a group of leading researchers in the field and provides a comprehensive view of the subject for students, managers and policy-makers.

Fully updated and revised, the 3rd Edition of Green Logistics takes a more global perspective than previous editions. It introduces new contributors and international case studies that illustrate the impact of green logistics in practice. There is a new chapter on the links between green logistics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) and a series of postscripts examining the likely effects of new developments, such as 3D printing and distribution by drone, on the environmental footprint of logistics.

Other key topics examined in the book include: carbon auditing of supply chains; transferring freight to greener transport modes; reducing the environmental impact of warehousing; improving the energy efficiency of freight transport; making city logistics more environmentally sustainable; reverse logistics for the management of waste; role of government in promoting sustainable logistics.

Ideal for use on related courses, the 3rd Edition of Green Logistics includes indispensable online supporting materials, including graphics, tables and chapter summaries, as well as technical information and guidelines for teachers and lecturers. The book is endorsed by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT).
