Hearing Equals Behavior: Updated and Expanded
If you are a parent or teacher working with individuals who struggle to process auditory and sensory information, you will find that this book offers new understanding of these problems, and most importantly, explains the intervention called Berard auditory integration training (AIT). This 10-hour training program reorganizes the dysfunctional auditory and sensory center so the brain no longer gets overloaded with confusing information. Berard AIT is regarded as the most effective approach available for enhancing listening skills, language, learning, sound tolerance, and sensory modulation. Evaluation of learning and behavior difficulties should include how the individual hears. Are there di...
Guy of Warwick
The first interdisciplinary enquiry into a key figure in medieval and early modern culture. Guy of Warwick is England's other Arthur.

This volume addresses important questions r...

Overcoming Autism
According to a recent study, as many as 1 in 91 school age children are somewhere on the Autism Spectrum. It's reached epidemic proportions! Everyone seems to know someone who's affected by autism. It's no coincidence that so many of our kids on the spectrum also have various immune problems like allergies, asthma, and eczema to name a few. Many of them have bowel problems that cause toxins to accumulate in their bodies. When the toxins accumulate, the liver has to work harder to get rid of those toxins. Chronic ear infections and antibiotics seem to be another common problem. The use of antibiotics causes an overgrowth of yeast (candida) which causes all kinds of problems and symptoms. And ...
The Idea of Anglo-Saxon England in Middle English Romance
Using a variety of texts, but the Matter of England romances in particular, the author argues that they show a continued interest in the Anglo-Saxon past, from the localised East Sussex legend of King Alfred that underlies the twelfth-century Proverbs of Alfred, to the institutional interest in the Guy of Warwick narrative exhibited by the community of St Swithun's Priory in Winchester during the fifteenth century; they are part of a continued cultural remembrance that encompasses chronicles, folk memories, and literature."--BOOK JACKET.
Awakening Ashley
At eighteen months, Ashley Ruben still didnt talk. She wouldnt respond when her name was called; she didnt appear to hear either. She fixated on tiny pieces of dirt and ate only crunchy foods. She was enveloped in a thick fogimpenetrable by everyone except Barney the Dinosaur. She worked puzzles like a kindergartener and was computer-savvy before she was two years old. Her mothers late-night searches on the Internet hinted at a reason for her lack of engagement with the outside world. And then a developmental specialist confirmed it: autism, a diagnosis that shook the foundation of a family and shattered a mothers world. Ashley could hear, but she couldnt listen. In order to address that, a ...
