Abstract
Fibromyalgia and Female Sexuality is the first book on fibromyalgia to explore how the various aspects of female sexuality can impact this baffling disorder. Understanding this impact can assist a woman in coping better with her fibromyalgia.
Entire chapters are devoted to intimacy, menstruation, pregnancy and menopause. This book provides up-to-date information on the many ramifications of female sexuality on fibromyalgia and gives sensible advise on how to manage the disorder's ups and downs.
Fibromyalgia and Female Sexuality is written in an easy-to-understand, conversational style. It is a self-help book that will enable the reader to alleviate some of the symptoms of pain, fatigue, moodiness and nonrestorative sleep.
It is recommended that the sexual partner of the fibromyalgia sufferer also read the book in order to assist her in overcoming the feelings of helplessness so often experienced in the face of this condition.

Racontée sous forme d'histoire dans les tomes 4-6 ans et 7-9 ans, la vie sexuelle est mise en scène sans préjugés ni tabous. Elle est illustrée clairement dans un style tendre et humoristique. Les tomes 10-13 ans et ados répondent à toutes les questions que l'on se pose à cet âge-là, sans oser parfois en parler, et de nombreuses photos complètent les explications et les schémas. Ces ouvrages, rédigés par quatre spécialistes, s'adressent à toute la famille. Petits et grands peuvent les consulter librement. Quelle que soit la façon dont ils sont utilisés, ils ont pour but de faciliter la naissance ou la reprise du dialogue entre les adultes et les enfants sur le délicat sujet de la sexualité

Abstract
Establish a 400-word vocabulary in nonverbal children and lay the foundation for communicating with pictures and signs. Children learn the new vocabulary in a variety of formats so they truly comprehend the words.
The teaching methods are what most nonverbal children need: rote, systematic, and familiar. The activities progress in the hierarchy that most verbal children acquire language:
- learning labels and attaching meaning
- developing vocabulary and concepts
- expanding vocabulary knowledge through associations and experience
The vocabulary is divided into five themes: Home, Community, Food, School, and Animals. Each theme consists of eight units and each unit teaches 10 functional vocabulary words (total of 80 vocabulary words in each theme).

Abstract
A book that aims at proving that training preschoolers with flash cards and attempting to hurry intellectual development doesn't pay off. In fact, the authors claim, kids who are pressured early on to join the academic rat race don't fair any better than children who are allowed to take their time. Alarmed by the current trend toward creating baby Einsteins, the book urges parents to step back and practice the "Three R's: Reflect, Resist, and Recenter." Instead of pushing preschoolers into academically oriented programs that focus on early achievement, the authors suggest that children learn best through simple playtime, which enhances problem solving skills, attention span, social development and creativity. The authors walk parents through much of the recent research on the way children learn, debunking such myths as the Mozart effect, and pointing out that much learning unravels naturally, programmed through centuries of evolution.
