Book Synopsis Why Dogs Stopped Flying by : Kenneth Brewer
Download or read book Why Dogs Stopped Flying written by Kenneth Brewer and published by . This book was released on 2006-05 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solid rightness of image after image in Ken Brewer’s poetry was never better than in Why Dogs Stopped Flying. His familiar style is plain-spoken, his humor reliable and self-ironic. Yet, in this collection perhaps more than his earlier work, the particularity of the poet’s insight into the physical world and the warmth of his affection for it combine to create an unexpected transcendence. Beasts and bodies are transformed in his lines, and our dim, unremarkable lives on this shadowed earth become somehow more luminous—small words to the moon, small suns opening in the dark.

Book Synopsis The Other End of the Leash by : Patricia McConnell, Ph.D.
Download or read book The Other End of the Leash written by Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
Book Synopsis Dog Is My Copilot by : Patrick Regan
Download or read book Dog Is My Copilot written by Patrick Regan and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True stories of dogs rescues by a national organization of volunteer pilots who fly pets to their new forever homes. Since 2008, an unlikely alliance of volunteer pilots and animal rescue enthusiasts has worked together to save thousands of death-row dogs by flying them to safe havens and better lives. Through two dozen accounts of real life animal rescues, Dog Is My Copilot tells the inspiring story of Pilots N Paws, America’s most unique and high-flying animal rescue organization. Founded “accidentally” when a private pilot offered to fly a mission of mercy to save an abused dog for a friend, Pilots N Paws has grown to include thousands of pilots who have transported tens of thousands of dogs slated for euthanasia (and a fair amount of cats and other animals), sometimes more than 1,000 miles away to new homes or no-kill shelters, where they have a much higher chance of adoption. These short, captivating stories are accompanied by more than 100 charming, poignant, color photos—most taken by the pilots themselves—of their canine passengers in flight. Unexpected things can happen when dogs reach cruising altitude, and the stories in Dog Is My Copilot run the emotional range from hilarious to heart rending—but the endings are always happy. These dogs are the lucky ones, and most of the pilots will tell you that when they get on the plane, they know it. After all, waiting for them on the ground hundreds of miles away is a second chance at a happy life with a loving forever family. Dog Is My Copilot—it's Chicken Soup for the Soul meets Marley and Me . . . with just a dash of The Right Stuff. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Pilots N Paws organization.

Angie inherited her late grandmother Angela’s lakeside cabin. She had no idea it also came with its ghostly past. Alone and isolated in the cabin, far into the mountains, Angie unfurls the mysteries of her family by reading her late grandmother’s journal. Instantaneously, she finds herself engulfed in the story of a vampire called Chalice, but only until she nears the end of the journal does she discover there is a connection between Chalice and her family. A RIVETING... ENTHRALLING VAMPIRE STORY ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE, CHALICE Handsome... Alluring...Cruel...A Vampire like no other. Strikingly handsome, cunning yet charming. Chalice creates his world, his way, taking only those who are worthy of his presence. Those who cross the ‘master’ Chalice suffer the wrath of his dark punishment. Love was a curious emotion to Chalice. An emotion felt only when he crosses paths with a lovely, mortal, Gabrielle. Something stirred deep within Chalice. A need for Gabrielle’s exception over powered Chalice, striking an unfamiliar emotion. Those emotions turn to anger and rage when Gabrielle rejects Chalice as her master. YOU MAY NOT WANT TO CLOSE YOUR EYES AT NIGHT. Gabrielle roamed the mountains in search of relief from her tortured existence as a vampire. Seeking aid in her plan to kill Chalice, Gabrielle, blinded by Chalice, finds her way to the cabin. Something strangely familiar within her helped guide her to the remote cabin. In the dark of night, during a thunderstorm, Gabrielle appears in the dim corner of the cabin. Gabrielle reaches out to Angie for help. Shocked at the repulsive figure before her, Angie finds difficulty in comprehending reality. It is only when Gabrielle speaks to Angie and explains her dilemma that Angie realizes she is standing before her great-grandmother.

Book Synopsis Modern Augustinian Confession by : James Curtis Geist
Download or read book Modern Augustinian Confession written by James Curtis Geist and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geists memoir is written in the tradition of Saint Augustines book, Confessions. Confessions is considered the first Western autobiography chronicling the saints struggles with sin, lust, and his life in Christian ministry. With brutal honesty, Jim Geist shares stories of struggle with character defects, addiction, and obsessive-compulsive behavior. It is a series of antidotal stories from elementary school, little league sports, family stories, and funny stories from hunting camp, graduate school, ministry, and his job as a high school social studies teacher in New York City. In his fifteen years as an educator, dozens of students encouraged Mr. Geist to write a memoir because they found his stories interesting, humorous, and inspirational. He was voted Teacher of the Year in 2012 by his peers, the same year his assistant principal took him to arbitration to steal his livelihood for him speaking out against the change from teacher-centered teaching to classes becoming times of group work where most of the time was not being spent on the curriculum or preparing for the New York state exams. It is a memoir of his careers, marriage, divorce, heartbreak, relationships, human rights activism against genocide, and modern-day slavery. It is a story of an urban teacher, in the midst of changes in the public education paradigm and a failed political candidate shot with slings and arrows of dirty tricks and false charges. It has stories of arbitration and court battles and recovery from codependency through the twelve-step program, learning how to accept life on lifes terms. You will find yourself laughing on almost every page and identifying with many of the human conundrums we face in life because life is often stranger than fiction.
Book Synopsis Behavior Analysis and Learning by : Erin B. Rasmussen
Download or read book Behavior Analysis and Learning written by Erin B. Rasmussen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 691 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a behavioral perspective, Behavior Analysis and Learning provides an advanced introduction to the principles of behavior analysis and learned behaviors, covering a full range of principles from basic respondent and operant conditioning through applied behavior analysis into cultural design. The text uses Darwinian, neurophysiological, and biological theories and research to inform B. F. Skinner’s philosophy of radical behaviorism. The seventh edition expands the focus on neurophysiological mechanisms and their relation to the experimental analysis of behavior, providing updated studies and references to reflect current expansions and changes in the field of behavior analysis. By bringing together ideas from behavior analysis, neuroscience, epigenetics, and culture under a selectionist framework, the text facilitates understanding of behavior at environmental, genetic, neurophysiological, and sociocultural levels. This "grand synthesis" of behavior, neuroscience, and neurobiology roots behavior firmly in biology. The text includes special sections, "New Directions," "Focus On," "Note On," "On the Applied Side," and "Advanced Section," which enhance student learning and provide greater insight on specific topics. This edition was also updated for more inclusive language and representation of people and research across race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender identity, and neurodiversity. Behavior Analysis and Learning is a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in psychology or other behavior-based disciplines, especially behavioral neuroscience. The text is supported by Support Material that features a robust set of instructor and student resources: www.routledge.com/9781032065144.
