This is an important book, for obvious reasons. It’s the first self-help book on anxiety by Aaron T. Beck, the founder of cognitive therapy. It’s published hot on the heels of Beck’s 2010 revised treatment manual for cognitive therapy of anxiety disorders, also co-authored with David Clark. Beck’s original treatment manual for anxiety was published in 1985 and revised in 2005 but this is a major revision of his approach. He has now provided an extremely comprehensive account of the scientific evidence for cognitive therapy and a more carefully defined and up-to-date set of guidelines for clinicians. This self-help workbook is basically the companion text for that clinical manual, presenting the same approach in a version designed for the general public to use by themselves or as homework when seeing a cognitive therapist using the same approach.
It’s not as much of of a light-read as some popular self-help books. It’s a workbook in the true sense, with a thorough and systematic chapter-by-chapter approach, including many forms to complete and regular exercises to engage in, perhaps requiring half an hour of work per day for several months. This, in other words, is a serious evidence-based guide to addressing anxiety directly and it will require commitment from the reader.
The book begins with a generic approach to anxiety, which can be used for subclinical problems and many mild-moderate issues. The later chapters focus on three special categories of anxiety: panic attacks, social anxiety and chronic worry. These problems are experienced by many people but the chapters will, of course, be particularly relevant to people who suffer from panic disorder, social phobia, or generalised anxiety disorder (sometimes called the "worry" disorder).

This book does a very clear job of defining emotional blackmail so you can begin to easily spot emotional blackmailers in your life. It then concludes with telling you specifically how to deal with emotional blackmail, that is, how to keep your energy, resources, and sometimes your very soul, from being stolen by them.
Something that was particularly important for me personally in the book was the part at the end where she talks about not emotionally blackmailing *yourself*! What an insight! I realized that even when rigid, controlling people are not around to inspire guilt, fear and shame in me to get me to do things that are hurtful to me for their selfish benefit, I have a "voice" in my head that does the job for them, telling me that whatever I do that doesn’t fit the world view of past and present blackmailers is "wrong," "selfish," or even "evil." So I beat myself up on behalf of my blackmailers even when they are not around to do it.
I also was impressed by the insight that not only does it "take two to tango," that no one can blackmail me if I don’t let them, but that it is also possible for me to actually "train" people to blackmail me. This is particularly, true, I think, for those of us raised in rigid, controlling homes with emotionally blackmailing parents. Thereafter, we are, so to speak, fertile ground for any future emotional blackmailers.
I had rather been realizing these sorts of things the past few years now that I’m in my 40s (the middle years when we suddenly reevaluate our whole life), and gradually eliminating emotional blackmailers from my life, without exactly using that term. (The term I used was ridding myself of people whose presence felt like "being nibbled to death by ducks.") This book has validated my innate human "right" to not be eaten alive by the selfish demands of others.
Kudos to Ms. Forward!
I have done a pretty thorough reading of books dealing with control, cults, emotional abuse, etc. I feel like I could write a thesis on this stuff by now. This was the best all around. I am a third party observing a loved one in a controlling relationship. There isn’t a book out there that really addresses my situation, but I have gleaned wisdom from many. What I love about this book is that it gives very concrete strategies for dealing with controlling people. The strategies are very well laid out, lots of examples of phrases that neutralize the offender. As a therapist, she also addresses the discomfort many of us would likely encounter when trying to put these strategies into practice. In addition to the concrete information on strategies, she describes why it might be hard to recognize that you are in an unhealthy controlling situation and how to know for sure. She helps clarify the personal damage victims of control sustain. I have become much more aware of people in my life that may be using unhealthy methods of control and have used the advice to stop, think and strategize to help me. It even helped me become a little wiser to ploys of friends of my kids. This book shows us how to resolve unhealthy control without necessarily having to end the relationship. With these techniques everyone might just come out a winner.
We are not victims of manipulation. We allow manipulation to happen to us and with careful observation we can neutralize it. This is what Susan Forward believes. I don’t know if I agree because I haven’t yet had a chance to practice her techniques in earnest, but I needed to comment on the content itself of the book, "Emotional Blackmail".
It is impossible for an author to address every specific detail of every reader’s personal situation. But this is as close as you can get. Forward gives stories and testimonials of people she has worked with who have used her techniques with success. Unlike other authors that do this, however, Forward does not simply apply the techniques to those situations and expect that you’ll be able to apply it to a scenario of your own. She separates the stories from the guidelines. She provides some fantastic exercises for further clarity of the techniques she describes.
One of the techniques I especially enjoyed reading about was "buying your time". Don’t respond immediately to your blackmailer. Give them time to "stew". In other words, try to avoid snap decisions when dealing with blackmailers. She groups manipulators into different categories. "Tantalizers" are the group I deal with most often. They are the ones who get you to do what they want by making it appear there is something incredible in it for you. This may sometimes be the case, but it’s important to realize that your needs are not the manipulator’s true motivation. Forward explains and clarifies this beautifully.
This is a very well-written book and I recommend it highly. Download Emotional Blackmail: When the People in Your Life Use Fear, Obligation and Guilt to Manipulate You – May, 1997 PDF

World of Warcraft: Rise of the Horde, by Christie Golden
"Rise of the Horde" is what a Warcraft book should be. The book is enjoyable, the plot is pretty solid, and the characters are spot on. In the author biography, Golden states that she is a World of Warcraft player and it shows – there are little things thrown in that any Warcraft player will appreciate.
Each chapter starts with a brief introduction from Thrall, the current chief of the new Horde. He is writing the history of the old Horde, the Horde that destroyed their own world and invaded Azeroth, the Horde that perpetuated genocide on the draenei and slaughtered the humans.
The story of the orcs starts with a noble race, living peacefully on Draenor. The orcs have coexisted with the draenei for hundreds of years, ever since the draenei arrived on Draenor fleeing from their ancient enemies. While the orcs take pleasure in hunting animals and bloodlust, they are not killers and have a culture, family groups, a belief system. But all that changes when the Burning Legion turns a key orc to their side, and he leads the orcs on a terrifying descent into madness. Only one clan stands apart, the Frostwolves; their leader Durotan watches helplessly as the orcs are corrupted by demons.
Golden depicts this tale with plenty of emotion; I felt for Durotan’s situation. How many of us have watched someone do something we know is wrong, but we can’t change their minds? Most of us have, I’m sure. "The Rise of the Horde" details just that, the rise of the horde that descended upon Azeroth, intent on taking the world for their own. The story is known, especially if one is a Warcraft player; but Golden fleshes out the story very nicely.
Out of every Warcraft book this is the place to start. It takes before Warcraft 1, 2, 3, WoW, etc. This looks like it will help explain the history of the new WoW expansion War Lords of Draenor a bit. If you’re looking for the proper order to read the Warcraft books I suggest the following:
Rise of the Horde (book) – Covers approx. a 10 year period prior to WC I.
The Last Guardian (book) – Touches on the closing days of the First War with bookends set prior to WC III.
Tides of Darkness (book) – Covers WC II in continuity.
Beyond the Dark Portal (book) – Covers WC II expansion in continuity.
Day of the Dragon (book) – Wraps up some dangling threads from WC II with Deathwing and the Red Dragonflight.
Lord of the Clans (book) – Covers a wide swath from just before WC II all the way to prior to WC III. Should be subtitled All You Wanted to Know About Thrall But Were Too Much of An Alliance Lover to Ask. J/k.
Of Blood and Honor (book) – Set just prior to WC III.
Warcraft III Battle Chest (game) – Reign of Chaos covers the origin of the Scourge and the return of the Burning Legion. The Frozen Throne covers the exile of Illidun, the rise of the Forsaken and the crowning of a new Lich King. Founding of Durotar covers the most recent conflict between Horde and humans prior to WoW.
Arthas: Rise of the Lich King (book) – Recaps material from Tides of Darkness all the way up until the end of Frozen Throne with bookends just before the WotLK cinematic.
Ashbringer (comic) – Covers the fallout from Arthas dissolving the Order of the Silver Hand and the rise of Argent Dawn and Crimson Crusade. Download World of Warcraft: Rise of the Horde Reprint Edition PDF
The Bread Baker’s Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread [Hardcover] Paperback – 2001

I bought this book after carefully researching it, trying to decide if it would be a book I would use or a book that would sit on my shelf and collect dust. The recipes in this book look more time-consuming than those found in my other bread books, and I finally decided that, based on other reviews of this book, it was worth a shot.
Almost all of the recipes in this book require more than one day to make; the author bases a great many of his recipes on some form of starter, whether it’s a stiff dough or a liquid sourdough starter. He asserts that this style of baking brings out the most flavor in the flour. He’s right. The recipes I have tried [so far] in this book do indeed have a better and stronger flavor, in spite if the fact that the base ingredients are the same as that of other recipes in other books.
The author does more than provide a bunch of good recipes (he refers to them as "formulas"). He describes the chemistry behind the ingredients and how they react to one another when mixed. He also shows, with photographs, many different shaping methods and intermediate steps that are required in making bread dough.
The author writes the techniques and recipes in this book like a man who has a deep interest in the subject, not just a desire to crank out another cookbook. He demonstrates, through his discussion in the book, his deep understanding of the art of breadmaking. For this man, bread making is a joy and a pleasure, not just a profession. When reading this book, the reader gets pulled along into the excitement the author has for his topic, which makes the process of breadmaking even more pleasurable.
This book is not for the lazy baker. If you want to make breads that are fast and easy, look for other titles. But if you want outstanding breads, and you’re willing to work for it and be patient, then this book is a superb choice.
This is an expensive book worth every penny. Reinhart will show you how to bake bread even if you’ve never baked anything that didn’t come out of a can and if you are an experienced baker, Reinhart will strengthen your understanding of how bread is made.
His explanation of the science of how bread is mixed, baked and even tasted is definitive and clearly written. The section on shaping dough is aptly photographed and understandable. It is, by far, the clearest description of shaping dough found in the current crop of baking books.
The bulk of the book consists of recipes, more accurately, formulas, for baking various kinds of bread. I’ve tried only two of them so far and both came out excellent. And one of the things that makes this book so helpful is that if your bread doesn’t come out excellent you’ll learn why it didn’t and what to do about it.
This book amplifies Reinhart’s previous book, Crust and Crumb, and like that book the formulas will help you bake the best bread you’ve ever made. And the theory will help you to create your own signature variations.
This is a priceless book and it is also a definite classic. If you don’t bake, buy it for someone who does.
When Peter Reinhart’s previous book (Crust and Crumb) was published, I stated in my review that this was the only book any serious baker would need. You can still get by with that one, but Reinhart has outcompeted himself with The Bread Baker’s Apprentice. Until he pulls another stunt like this, Baker’s Apprentice is now the only book any serious bread baker would ever need, or anyone less serious for that sake. Like the last book, Baker’s Apprentice is overflowing with information, experience and wisdom, but this one is also tightly organized and well laid out. It is at the same time a baking tutorial, a recipe collection, a reference work, and for baking freaks like me, bedtime reading. Maybe it is a missionary tract too. The various bread types cover a repertoire worthy of any professional baker, yet one that can be accomplished by us amateurs. The photos are pretty but also inspirational and instructional, showing shaping options and procedures. Reinhart’s last book got me away from yeasted white bread and onto the path of rustic, naturally leavened bread (although he by no means forces the reader to follow that path). His chapter in this book about the Poilane-style Miche (the loaf shown on the cover) got me off the path and onto the road.

I just purchased the fourth addition after having bought and lost the third edition. I am currently studying to take the ASCP MLS exam this month; and I really liked the previous edition. After I take the test I’ll come back on here and give a thorough book review as well as a review of the exam. I’ll be posting on all of the major book review sites and on indeed.com, in large part to give prospective ASCP exam applicants a foundation in which to build their studying. I’m doing this because I felt that information regarding ASCP MLS exam prep was sorely lacking on the internet. Although, there is an excellent website that provides nice review notes as well as other exam information. Just google "ASCP wordsology" and the site will be the first one that comes up.
I have had this book not more than 5-6 hours and my preliminary analysis is that this is a great resource, and provides excellent feedback. I used the CD resource a few hours ago to take a couple of quizzes. My goal is to better prepare for lab results associated with disease states, or vice versa. So, I hoped that the CD resources would concentrate in that area. I can tell that the quizzes are excellent. You can arrange your own quizzes by subject and difficulty level. The level 3 difficulty quizzes did not disappoint. They were heavily geared towards lab results associated with disease states; and that’s exactly what I wanted. I was initially worried that some formatting may had been changed in regards to the previous editions, but it appears that this book as has went above and beyond what the previous editions have presented. I will go in to more detail after the exam. Stay tuned, after January 17 I’ll be back!
Good luck to all of you taking the ASCP MLS exam soon!
I have been an MLT for many years, and decided to go back to school for my Bachelor’s in Medical Technology. I thought after 18 years, I knew a lot of things. Well, after purchIDg this book I realized how much I didn’t know. There is so much information in here, covering all disciplines of lab practice- from phlebotomy and specimen collection, to Micro(all of your favorite manual methods), to Genetics. The questions range from your basic lab knowledge, to obscure formulas and "old fashioned" test methods. They always say you should understand the principles of a test, not just how to press run. This is a very comprehensive and thorough study guide, and I poked in and out of it for a couple months, being a little hesitant to sit for the boards. Apparently I learned a few things studying from this book because I passed my MLS exam on the first try. I would recommend this book, as you never know what will be on the board exams, because each test is tailored to the individual taking it based on previous answers, so you never know what you will get. Best to be prepared, you can never know too much. Good read!
your teachers can’t cover everything but expect you to know it all when it come time for the tests. this book causes you to think in multiple ways and take into consideration small facts that end up being very important Download Medical Laboratory Science Review Kindle Edition Epub Download
Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race, and Family Life, Second Edition, with an Update a Decade Later MP3 CD – Audiobook, MP3 Audio, Unabridged
Author: Visit ‘s Annette Lareau Page ID: 1452654719
Review
“A fascinating study.” —Malcolm Gladwell
From the Inside Flap
“So where does something like practical intelligence come from?…Perhaps the best explanation we have of this process comes from the sociologist Annette Lareau, who…conducted a fascinating study of a group of third graders. You might expect that if you spent such an extended period in twelve different households, what you would gather is twelve different ideas about how to raise children…What Lareau found, however, is something much different.” —Malcolm Gladwell, Outliers: The Story of Success
“Less than one in five Americans think ‘race, gender, religion or social class are very important for getting ahead in life,’ Annette Lareau tells us in her carefully researched and clearly written new book. But as she brilliantly shows, everything from looking authority figures in the eye when you shake their hands to spending long periods in a shared space and squabbling with siblings is related to social class. This is one of the most penetrating works I have read on a topic that only grows in importance as the class gap in America widens.”—Arlie Russell Hochschild, author of The Time Bind and The Commercialization of Intimate Life
“This is a great book, not only because of its powerful portrayal of class inequalities in the United States and its insightful analysis of the processes through which inequality is reproduced, but also because of its frank engagement with methodological and analytic dilemmas usually glossed over in academic texts. Hardly any other studies have the rich, intensive ethnographic focus on family of Unequal Childhoods.” —Diane Reay, American Journal of Sociology
“Lareau does sociology and lay readers alike an important service in her engaging book, Unequal Childhoods, by showing us exactly what kinds of knowledge, upbringing, skills, and bureaucratic savvy are involved in this idea, and how powerfully inequality in this realm perpetuates economic inequality. Through textured and intimate observation, Lareau takes us into separate worlds of pampered but overextended, middle-class families and materially stressed, but relatively relaxed, working-class and poor families to show how inequality is passed on across generations.” —Katherine Newman, Contexts
“Sociology at its best. In this major study, Lareau provides the tools to make sense of the frenzied middle-class obsession with their offspring’s extracurricular activities; the similarities between black and white professionals; and the paths on which poor and working class kids are put by their circumstances. This book will help generations of students understand that organized soccer and pick-up basketball have everything to do with the inequality of life chances.”—Michele Lamont, author of The Dignity of Working Men: Morality and the Boundaries of Race, Class, and Immigration
“Drawing upon remarkably detailed case studies of parents and children going about their daily lives, Lareau argues that middle-class and working-class families operate with different logics of childrearing, which both reflect and contribute to the transmission of inequality. An important and provocative book.”—Barrie Thorne, author of Gender Play: Girls and Boys in School
“With rich storytelling and insightful detail, Lareau takes us inside the family lives of poor, middle-class, and affluent Americans and reminds us that class matters. Unequal Childhoods thoughtfully demonstrates that class differences in cultural resources, played out in the daily routines of parenting, can have a powerful impact on children’s chances for climbing the class ladder and achieving the American dream. This provocative and often disturbing book will shape debates on the U.S. class system for decades to come.”—Sharon Hays, author of Flat Broke with Children
“Drawing on intimate knowledge of kids and families studied at school and at home, Lareau examines the social changes that have turned childhood into an extended production process for many middle-class American families. Her depiction of this new world of childhood–and her comparison of the middle-class ideal of systematic cultivation to the more naturalistic approach to child development to which many working-class parents still adhere–maps a critically important dimension of American family life and raises challenging questions for parents and policy makers.”—Paul DiMaggio, Professor of Sociology, Princeton University
“Annette Lareau has written another classic. Her deep insights about the social stratification of family life and childrearing have profound implications for understanding inequality — and for understanding the daily struggles of everyone attempting to raise children in America. Lareau’s findings have great force because they are thoroughly grounded in compelling ethnographic evidence.”—Adam Gamoran, Professor of Sociology and Educational Policy Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
“With the poignant details of daily life assembled in a rigorous comparative design, Annette Lareau has produced a highly ambitious ethnographic study that reveals how social class makes a difference in children’s lives. Unequal Childhoods will be read alongside Sewell and Hauser, Melvin Kohn, and Bourdieu. It is an important step forward in the study of social stratification and family life, and a valuable exemplar for comparative ethnographic work.”—Mitchell Duneier, author of Sidewalk and Slim’s Table

Most Americans see individual effort as the key to success, with fewer than one in five seeing class or race as very important in getting ahead in life. The reality is that social class is a more important determinant of a person’s success in life than it used to be due to two powerful trends: Growing economic inequality that has created a wider gulf between rich and poor, and less mobility between classes. The fact is the USA has both less social mobility and wider economic inequality than any of the other rich democracies in Canada, Australia, Japan and western Europe.
With more sluggish mobility than in the past, class has become more hereditary than it once was. The gap in spending per child is growing between rich and poor Americans, from 5 to 1 in 1972 to 9 to 1 in 2007. Just 17 percent of kids raised in the bottom fifth of the income distribution will make it to the top two-fifths by age 40.
It’s no wonder then that class differences are so powerful in shaping a child’s life experience, more important in child raising than racial differences, according to Annette Lareau, a sociology professor at the University of Pennsylvania, who won awards for the first edition of this book in 2002.
Lareau’s research reveals the basic class differences in approach to raising children. Middle-class parents have their children in organized activities and engage in a process of "concerted cultivation." By contrast, working-class and poor parents don’t engage their children in concerted cultivation, instead allowing development through "natural growth."
Poor parents face economic challenges just putting food on the table and getting medical care. They lack the resources and energy to put their kids in as many organized activities.
