This book assembles, for the first time, information required for the recognition, understanding, and treatment of behavioral problems resulting from neurological conditions. Its focus is two-pronged: 1) on conditions where cognitive-behavioral manifestations are major symptoms, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism, and developmental language disorder; and 2) on conditions where these symptoms are significant but secondary, such as brain tumors, epilepsy, and AIDS. This multi-authored guide also outlines effective approaches to behavioral therapy for these conditions. Pediatric Behavioral Neurology is an excellent resource for practitioners whose work demands knowledge of the symptoms, signs, and treatment of behavioral and cognitive disorders caused by brain abnormalities. It is comprehensive, yet concise and easy to use.
This work discusses specific learning disabilities (SLD), with a special attention to the biology of these diverse conditions. It highlights the large biological component in the pathophysiology of SLE and the contribution of new biological investigative tools to the understanding of SLD such as dyslexia and dyscalculia and to the evaluation of therapies. It also discusses the relatively unrecognised emotional aspects of SLD, and the sometime devastating effects that these conditions have on the life of affected subjects and their families, in and out of the classroom.

According to Jewish mysticism, the souls of a husband and wife originate in the same undifferentiated spiritual essence. These souls are bound as one, and the purpose of marriage is to enable a couple to manifest this unity in the context of everyday life. Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh shows how the natural process of mating of establishing a healthy relationship, fostering togetherness, and ultimately merging into true oneness--is a spiritual act of the highest order. Drawing on modern psychology and Kabbalistic wisdom, with many illustrations from Biblical personalities, the author traces the steps through which today's married couple can actualize their relationship ideals in their daily life. Includes glossary, footnotes, and index.
Dieting is not just for the body. The Soul Diet helps readers eliminate the mind clutter and "spiritual junk food" so pervasive in our society, so that true clarity can be achieved. A lot of pseudo wisdom is making its rounds in determining personal goals, and what looks like gold is in many cases just glitter. The book encourages the reader to undergo a Media Fast and a Schedule Slimming before drawing up a ledger of progress in dealing with character improvement, such as control of anger, speech control and intimacy preservation. The resulting clarity creates a strong sense of purpose and direction.
