Navigating the Journey of Aging Parents
Navigating the Journey of Aging Parents proposes an entirely unique approach to the field of gerontology, giving dependent care receivers a voice. Caregivers will be made aware of what care receivers truly want during life's final chapters. Exploring issues of housing, spirituality, personal care and death, Cheryl Kuba has created a testament to the dependent elderly. This book draws on numerous interviews with aging people and discusses common caregiver mistakes and interpretations, what a caregiver should expect when an aging parent moves in, and how to care for an aging parent from afar. Kuba also delves into such phenomena as guilt, role reversal, changing family dynamics, financial stress, and caring for oneself while caring for another. The 22.4 million elderly people being cared for in the United States comprises the fastest growing segment of the population, making this reference on the opinions and concerns of care receivers invaluable.
Aging in America

The result is a book offering invaluable information on topics ranging from estate planning to grief and anger to building a support network and finding the right level of care for your elderly parent.
10 Steps to Successful Time Management
The funny thing about the phrase time management is that you can't really manage time. What you can do is manage yourself and your activities and thus save your life. Cyndi Maxey and Kevin E. O'Connor have written a book to help you do just that. If you're tired of scrambling frantically on the hamster wheel of life, maybe it's time you jumped off and learned to really manage your time—and your life—so that you are in control of your own destiny. After all, life is all about time: How you use it, whether it controls you (or vice versa), and whether you get what you want from it. The goal of this book is not to save you time (that can't be done, as you'll soon discover), but to save your ...

Trénink je rozhovor,ve kterém má i váš pes co říct
V současné době asi není v České republice trenér, který by k pozitivním metodám výcviku měl tolik co říct jako RNDr. František Šusta. Mezinárodně uznávaný trenér zvířat ověnčený řadou ocenění má totiž krom soukromé kynologické praxe možnost praktikovat své metody i v zaměstnání, v zoologické zahradě, kde předvádí ukázky a vede nácviky k nápravě problémových chování. A na to, abyste se stejnou cestou domluvili nejen se psem, ale i koněm, papouškem či Vaší kočkou, už musíte o pozitivním posilování vědět opravdu hodně – a co je ještě důležitější, musíte o tom i hodně přemýšlet. Práce Františka Šusty, ať už prak...
