Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Derby, Esther / Larsen, Diana, PUBLISHER: Pragmatic Bookshelf, See how to mine the experience of your software development team "continually" throughout the life of the project. The tools and recipes in this book will help you uncover and solve hidden (and not-so-hidden) problems with your technology, your methodology, and those difficult "people" issues on your team. Project retrospectives help teams examine what went right and what went wrong on a project. But traditionally, retrospectives (also known as "post-mortems") are only helpful at the end of the project--too late to help. You need agile retrospectives that are iterative and incremental. You need to accurately find and fix problems to help the team today. Now, Derby and Larsen show you the tools, tricks, and tips you need to fix the problems you face on a software development project on an on-going basis. You'll see how to architect retrospectives in general, how to design them specifically for your team and organization, how to run them effectively, how to make the needed changes, and how to scale these techniques up. You'll learn how to deal with problems, and implement solutions effectively throughout the project--not just at the end. With regular tune-ups, your team will hum like a precise, world-class orchestra.

Unconditional Parenting: Moving from Rewards and Punishments

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kohn, Alfie, PUBLISHER: Atria Books, Most parenting guides begin with the question "How can we get kids to do what they're told?"--and then proceed to offer various techniques for controlling them. In this truly groundbreaking book, nationally respected educator Alfie Kohn begins instead by asking "What do kids need--and how can we meet those needs?" What follows from that question are ideas for working with children rather than doing things to them. One basic need all children have, Kohn argues, is to be loved unconditionally, to know that they will be accepted even if they screw up or fall short. Yet conventional approaches to parenting such as punishments (including "time-outs"), rewards (including positive reinforcement), and other forms of control teach children that they are loved only when they please us or impress us. Kohn cites a body of powerful, and largely unknown, research detailing the damage caused by leading children to believe they must earn our approval. That's precisely the message children derive from common discipline techniques, even though it's not the message most parents intend to send. More than just another book about discipline, though, "Unconditional Parenting" addresses the ways parents think about, feel about, and act with their children. It invites them to question their most basic assumptions about raising kids while offering a wealth of practical strategies for shifting from "doing to" to "working with" parenting--including how to replace praise with the unconditional support that children need to grow into healthy, caring, responsible people. This is an eye-opening, paradigm-shattering book that will reconnect readers to their own best instincts and inspire them to become betterparents.

Forms in Modernism - A Visual Set: The Unity of Typography,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, Virginia, PUBLISHER: Watson-Guptill Publications, What do typefaces and buildings have in common? A great deal, according to typographic design expert, and former university professor, Virginia Smith. Smith believes that typography is the unifying discipline through which we can understand, analyze, and compare form in a wide range of visual mediums. This visually delightful book sets out to prove that point by studying forms--"shapes and their varieties and permutations--"in all of the other design arts. The main focus is on architecture, but the book also looks at fashion, furniture, and common artifacts. Smith believes that there is a "visual landscape" of periods in design, where all of the visual arts treat from in similar ways. "Forms in Modernism--"A Visual Set identifies some of these similarities--"including striping, skewing, stretching, compressing, and elongating--"across mediums. The majority of her examples appeared in the first half of the 20th century, and lasted from early European modernism up through the American mid-century and the International Style. More than just a book designed to prove a thesis, "Forms in Modernism--"A Visual Set provides an interesting visual journey through the signature styles of the last century.
