This work is certainly the most useful and comprehensive work on cognitive vulnerability available. It will be useful to both researchers and clinicians with a research background. The book covers the fundamentals of cognitive theory, then proceeds to an exhaustive summary of the research and findings on the cognitive dimensions of depression, cognitive predictors of depression, different types of causal traits and, appropriately, methodological problems in cognitive research on depression. Certainly not a self-help book, but extremely useful for diligent and evidence-based therapists who wish to turn its information into useful interventions.

CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ asserts that most editors listed in magazine mastheads do not hold an office within the company. Instead, they work from their homes as freelancers. Their reliable outpouring of articles results in regular assignments and bylines. Freed of the necessity of a regular workweek complete with a tiny cubicle in the corporate world, these writers enjoy the flexibility and the comfort of their own homes. Most importantly, Contributing Factor$ provides the keys to becoming one of those successful writers through explanation, example, and experience.

Even if you are not freelancing now, CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ is still for you. This short book provides the guideline to the path of becoming a contributing writer or editor, including an overview of how to get started as a stringer, move through freelancing, and eventually attain the status of a contributing writer or editor. Moreover, it points out that while the title of contributor may only be a matter of semantics, the status of contributing certainly results in making more money while still freelancing, as well insuring frequent publication.

CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ includes much of the necessary, solid advice that is the substance of all good writing coaches: prepared samples, know the market, specialization. Yet it steps beyond absolute necessity. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ clearly demonstrates the pros and cons of becoming a contributing writer or editor, including not only the author's experience but also the experience of many other authors, making CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ work unique among the many titles on the market.

With the glut of electronic magazines, both paying and nonpaying markets, many writers are finding these new markets a convenient venue to insure an audience, and to add another entry on their resume. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ also tackles issues of publishing on the internet and the consequences of this evolving market. While many lack the budget to pay, CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ lists reasons electronic magazines are still extremely productive, especially showing how to find new opportunities.

Filled with interview material, first hand experience, and generous examples, CONTRIBUTING FACTORS$ is a must read for any writer looking for their name on a masthead and regular paychecks in the bank.

Keep this book close at hand and you'll never despair, whether you need to convert feet to meters, gallons to liters, or short tons to slugs.

The thrust of this book is to help facilitate organizational change through finding more courage both within yourself and inspiring it in others. The author's aim is to help the reader find 1) more candor to deal with the truth, 2) a greater sense of purpose, 3) a more optimistic will, 4) more disciplined rigor, and 5) a greater inclination to trust and risk. These are five quintessential dimensions of courage that bring people to cross an action threshold and persevere. Each of these factors is explored in separate chapters; specific how-to guidelines are presented and summarized. The book vividly deals with the emotions underlying the will to act; it is insightful and invigorating. We highly recommend it.
