Review: Life Hacking

My Review To say I didn’t enjoy Life Hacking I’m afraid, would be an understatement. The book seemed to be the authors excuse to brag, brag and brag some more. All it consisted of was one story after another telling us how clever he had been and how he had achieved this and that. Yes […]

More Time to Think Review

This book is an insightful look at the 10 components of listening and how to use them. Using some real world examples, including full conversations, Nancy shows how by simply keeping quiet and just asking  1 or 2 key questions, we give the other person the power  to work out what to do next.. This is very empowering

This would be an excellent book for any body who has to deal with people, managers, teachers, parents, etc. I did find the book hard to follow, but would still recommend it as one to put on the shelf for reference.

It is amazing that just keeping quiet and letting the other person think through the problem can make such a difference.

The Gift Of Alzheimers Book Review

 This book from Maggie La Tourelle tells the heart warming  story of her journey with her mother Pat who has Alzheimers disease as they prepare for Pat's Death . I decided to read the book as I have a family member who may have Alzheimer's and was looking for some insight and advice. This book provided both in abundance.

The main body of the book is the journal that Maggie kept during the 3 1/2 yrs that her mother was ill. As well as recordings of their conversations, Maggie provides a lot of insight and background.

Although I found the Introduction long, it was worthwhile reading as Maggie gives an extremely detailed biography of her family. The final parts of the book give some helpful advice and valuable insight about how to communicate with a sufferer, and make them feel worthwhile.

If you know someone with Alzheimer's, or even if you don;t, I would recommend this book.
