Go to this Link, and click the link at the bottom of the paragraph next to the little film strip icon.My Gemini Rising loves people that research. I was looking into buying Nuture Shock, and I went to their site. I went to a few of the links. This video link is great. You'll learn whether it's better to praise intelligence or hard work, whether self-esteem is really an indicator of whether a person will do well in life, and the role of sleep depravation on the mind. I think it's really fascinating. I'll probably get the book now. It's interesting and useful information for anyone, but might be most useful for parents. IP: Logged |

Here's the other author regarding "The Myth of Praise" specifically:

Not if I do it first. I was listening to this book for about an hour today. It's still very thought provoking information. IP: Logged |
