In a world full of communication breakdowns - where nation fights against nation, neighbor fights against neighbor and so many are misunderstood - there is much to be learned from the communication challenges inherent in a fire station where egos run rampant. In no other context is it as urgent that communication work well than in firefighting. And there’s no better observer and expert on those lessons than Allan London, a firefighter with more than three decades of experience making communication decisions that save lives.

Not a communication pr leadership book at all

READ the REVIEWS! - Not for actual fire officers
Revisado: 03-18-23
If you're actually in the fire service this is a complete waste of time. While he may be god's gift to fire officers, he is in no way qualified to discuss tangible content about how to actually effectively communicate. Not sure how it ended up with 3.5 stars when I read it. Other than some anecdotal "treat everyone with respect" type advice there's absolutely no substance to the content. It's a kids book about career stories and the author telling you how smart, awesome and what a good communicator he is. I mean, he sounds like a nice guy but ironically he talks about "know it all's that want to tell you all about themselves" in the book... what's that saying, when you point at someone, three fingers are pointing back at you.

Based on the authors' extensive experience in a range of settings in the United States and Canada, the book addresses the most common stumbling blocks to understanding social justice. This comprehensive resource includes new features such as a chapter on intersectionality and classism; discussion of contemporary activism (Black Lives Matter, Occupy, and Idle No More); material on White Settler societies and colonialism; pedagogical supports related to "common social patterns" and "vocabulary to practice using"; and extensive updates throughout.

This book will help you flourish. With this unprecedented promise, internationally esteemed psychologist Martin Seligman begins Flourish, his first book in 10 years - and the first to present his dynamic new concept of what well-being really is. Traditionally, the goal of psychology has been to relieve human suffering, but the goal of the Positive Psychology movement, which Dr. Seligman has led for 15 years, is different - it’s about actually raising the bar for the human condition.

Absolute amazing look into drugs in our society. Must read for all Americans. This book overlays perfectly with what I have seen in my 20-year career as a firefighter and paramedic on the streets of Seattle. I've seen lots of change in the drug using community over those years but but could never quantify what exactly was going on. The book exquisitely connected those dots for me.

Ordinary Men is the true story of Reserve Police Battalion 101 of the German Order Police, which was responsible for mass shootings as well as round-ups of Jewish people for deportation to Nazi death camps in Poland in 1942. Browning argues that most of the men of RPB 101 were not fanatical Nazis but, rather, ordinary middle-aged, working-class men who committed these atrocities out of a mixture of motives, including the group dynamics of conformity, deference to authority, role adaptation, and the altering of moral norms to justify their actions.

Stark reminder of "average human" potential
Revisado: 02-03-21
A cautionary tale about the potential power of destruction that the average human possesses. We are not so different than the Germans committing the atrocities during the Holocaust.
