Описание: Provides new evidence from a range of leading scholars showing that teachers become more effective when they work in organisations that support them in comprehensive and coordinated ways. The studies featured in the book suggest an alternative approach to enhancing teacher quality: creating conditions and school structures that facilitate the transmission and sharing of knowledge among teachers.
This is an amazing story, told from the emotionally sensitive child's side. It is a story of the misperception of a father's love for his child, as seen from the child's perception at the time.
It is a story that describes the struggle of growing up in today's world and the dynamics of a child in his household - what the author thought of it, and the life of perceived lack and misery he created from it.
In turn, the book describes the awakening of the author as a young adult, realizing that he had created his life and that if he created it, he could change it.
As the story unfolds, he realizes his misperceptions of his life and explains how he came to realize his father's love, and that his father also represented the Mother/Father/God's love of all its creations.

Описание: Joseph Di Prisco's anticipated memoir brings the hustler, gambler, criminal, bookmaker, and confidential informer--Joe's father--back to life, and reveals the fascinating and unsettling truths that simultaneously bound and separated father and son. On the street they called him Pope, and he made his bones in Brooklyn during the '50s and '60s when Joe was a kid and had more questions about his dad than he would dare ask. Later, when Di Prisco accidentally discovered fifty-year-old transcripts of New York State Appellate Division trials, where his dad was the star witness against corrupt NYPD cops--cops with whom he collaborated--Pope's hazardous, veiled, twisted past was finally illuminated. The Pope of Brooklyn is both sequel and prequel to his much-praised memoir, Subway to California. Enlightened by these disclosures, Di Prisco flawlessly traces how secrets once revealed led to even deeper mysteries both for himself and for the reader.

Описание: Enlisted by megalomaniac publisher Myron Beam, Sibella Cassidy--junior editor extraordinaire--recounts the trials and tribulations of the San Francisco-based literary darling Hard Rain Publishing all the way from its improbable rise through its seemingly inevitable freefall. The whip smart, wise-cracking, and surprisingly well-read Sibella navigates the mounting eccentricities of the house's award-winning authors, slices up her oh-so-pretentious colleagues with her razor-sharp wit, and even manages to fish her publisher out of the pub long enough to keep the whole ship afloat, all the while battling her ex-boyfriend's meteoric success and the feintless infinity of the blank page. But when her boss acquires the artless and arduous 900-page debut The Adventures of Calypso O'Kelly, their star author Figgy Fontana--possibly, maybe, kinda sorta--dies, and a team of con artists take aim at Myron Beam, it's up to Sibella, her endlessly outmatched editor in chief, and a former female pornstar--no, really--to return Hard Rain and its hard-boozing, hapless publisher to their former glory. Part tell all, part mystery, and part coming-of-age novel, Sibella & Sibella is a biting look at the world of publishing from a reluctant witness who pulls no punches with anyone. Least of all herself.
