This easy-to-follow book—the first devoted entirely to clarifying the laws of perspective—remedies the situation.

By repeatedly stressing important points, Mr. Norling teaches you to make them second-nature. Moreover, his approach is so simple and direct that no matter how little raw talent or experience you have, you will soon be able to apply these techniques almost instinctively.Mastery of perspective is a basic skill every artist must have. This simple, nontechnical guide will enable you to master its essentials in a relatively short time. Clear and concise, this book is an essential addition to any artist's bookshelf.

Even covers Shade and Shadows!! This book is written from an artist's point of view, and is designed specifically to help drawings. Although it was written originally in 1939, the rules of perspective don't change, and it was updated in the late 60's. It covers vanishing points, moving vanishing points, and using the rules of perspective to make drawings of interiors. It covers ellipses, cylinders and cones. I bought 2 books on perspective and they pretty much said the same thing --- but the explanations were slightly different which helped my understanding. A great reference!!Wow! A Must Read for Every Aspiring Artist If you do any kind of drawing or painting, do yourself a favor and read this book at least once. Its author has the rare talent of being able to explain mysterious concepts very clearly with helpful illustrations and simple wording. He points out a lot of super basic principles which you never get taught elsewhere, and they will quite likely forever change the way you approach your projects. I'm not what you'd call a super talented artist, and I found this to be very encouraging and helpful. You really pick up that the author sincerely wants to make art a more enjoyable activity for you.I can't recommend enough for the beginner This has really helped me with perspective, I can't recommend enough for the beginner. Even the pro might benefit from a few of these quick tips.Even though it was written quite a while ago now, the writing it's self is clear and easy to understand.This would make a great gift for anyone who's interested in starting art, possibly even art students because from what I've seen with my friends, not all art classes teach perspective effectively.

"As applicable in the workplace as in an intimate relationship." —The Boston Globe "In the presence of either Zander, one's spirit soars. Now they reveal their secrets in a deeply satisfying book. I guarantee you'll be inspired." —Gail Sheehy"The passionate energy permeating The Art of Possibility is a true force for every reader for self-development and life fulfillment." —Klaus Schwab, founder and president, World Economic ForumROSAMUND STONE ZANDER is the author of The Art of Possibility (with Benjamin Zander) and Pathways to Possibility. Trained as a family systems therapist, she coaches organizations from the inside out. Ms. Zander has brought wisdom, humor, and enlightenment to people in a wide variety of settings, from school systems, hospitals, and corporations to the World Economic Forum.

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER

Discover the twelve breakthrough practices for bringing creativity and a sense of possibility into all of your endeavors in this bestselling guide from the author of 
Pathways to Possibility

Presenting twelve breakthrough practices for bringing creativity into all human endeavors, The Art of Possibility is the dynamic product of an extraordinary partnership. The Art of Possibility combines Benjamin Zander's experience as conductor of the Boston Philharmonic and his talent as a teacher and communicator with psychotherapist Rosamund Stone Zander's genius for designing innovative paradigms for personal and professional fulfillment. The authors' harmoniously interwoven perspectives provide a deep sense of the powerful role that the notion of possibility can play in every aspect of life. Through uplifting stories, parables, and personal anecdotes, the Zanders invite us to become passionate communicators, leaders, and performers whose lives radiate possibility into the world.

Uplifting, great stories yet not very concrete The Art of the Possibility is an uplifting little book about thinking practices that allow you to move away from "the world of measurement" into "the world of possibility". The book is full of positive stories to attempt to change your perspective in life. The stories are fun, yet the practices weren't always very concrete. It was an easy read, yet it wasn't a book that gave me a major AHA! moment.The book is about 200 pages, written in 12 chapters for 12 different practices. Most of the practices are perspective-practices that try to trigger you into a different way of thinking about yourself and about the world. For example, the practice of "Giving an A" is the practice that asks to always look at people from their potential perspective and avoid judging them directly. Always give an A to people... think the best of them and that will get out the best of them.All other practices are similar. I find them useful, yet at times native. However, they aren't very concrete and they all kinda relate is seeing the world from the perspective of... possibility.The Art of Possibility Review Wow! This book would transform your worldview for the better. The tools and practices given in this book would make you a better person, leader, friend and spouse. They will open you up to the world of possibility, enhance your life and relationships for the better.invest in yourself today! You will be glad you did.The book you don't read, won't help. This is a book to review annually. It's that good.Thank you, Ben and Rose for this gift.A practice manual for being amazing. This is a practice guide for being excellent, for being a leader wherever you are, and for living a satisfying professional and personal life. Practical, detailed illustrations of a dozen or so different practices, each of which could transform my work relationships. I'm really glad to have read this book, and expect to keep it as a reference, since the practices take some time to learn.

Excellent Resource for Developing Skilled Readers! "Effective reading strategies are like my favorite recipes; they teach you how to accomplish something that is not yet automatic in a broken down, step-by-step manner." - Jennifer Serravallo, The Reading Strategies Book: Your EVERYTHING Guide to Developing Skilled ReadersJennifer Serravallo created the ultimate book of reading strategies. This resource is a must have have for schools! Let me explain in terms of who can benefit:- Campus Leadership: Assistant principals usually coordinate the RtI process and instructional intervention plans. This books will help identify and create individual goals for learners, determine the appropriate strategy and give you ideas for intervention lessons. Best of all, these can be implemented IN the classroom setting by the teacher.In my experience as an assistant principal, I often got responses like, "He can't read. She struggles with reading. He doesn't try to sound out words. She is not on grade level in reading. He has so may gaps, I don't know where to start." This book will help teachers:identify specific instructional goalsidentify guidelines for readers to practice and apply strategiesgive helpful feedback to move the reader forward- Literacy Specialist/Instructional Coach: This resource can help with coaching conversations with individual teachers or grade level teams.- Classroom Teacher: This is truly a comprehensive book to help you develop individual reading goals or goals for reading strategy groups. This a a GREAT resource for reading strategy groups. The lessons in this book can fit into any balanced literacy program.The book is organized around the following goals (chapters) for developing skilled readers: - Supporting Pre-Emergent and Emergent Readers - Teaching Reading Engagement: Focus, Stamina, and Building a Reading Life - Supporting Print Work: Increasing Accuracy and Integrating Sources of Information - Teaching Fluency: Reading with Paraphrasing, Intonation, and Automaticity - Supporting Comprehension in Fiction: Understanding Plot and Setting - Supporting Comprehension in Fiction: Thinking About Characters - Supporting Comprehension in Fiction: Understanding Themes and Ideas - Supporting Comprehension in Nonfiction: Determining Maint Topic(s) and Idea(s) - Supporting Comprehension in Nonfiction: Determining Key Details - Supporting Comprehension in Nonfiction: Getting the Most from Text Features - Improving Comprehension in Fiction and Nonfiction: Understanding Vocabulary and Figurative Language - Supporting Students' Conversations: Speaking, Listening, and Deepening Comprehension - Improving Writing About ReadingEach chapter starts with a research-based explanation of WHY the goal is important to developing skilled readers. Serravallo also gives you suggestions on how to assess students, because it crucial that the strategy matches the child's goal and the texts they are reading. Strategy lessons include the following (depending on the lesson): - Level - Genre/Text Type - Skill - Strategy - Prompts - Teaching Tips - Language Lesson - VisualsSee my full review (with visuals) here: http://loriesqualls.com/2015/07/11/the-reading-strategies-book/HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!Must Have...One of a Kind! Dream Come True for Anyone Who Teaches Reading!!! This AMAZING, MUST HAVE, book is a dream come true for anyone who teaches reading. It is like no other book I've ever read or owned about literacy. Most books about teaching reading require plowing through lots of pages about the author's philosophy and practices before getting to the good stuff...the stuff you can use in the classroom tomorrow. This book is only the "good stuff!" ...from strugglers to gifted students...from pre emergent readers to Level Z readers..... You will find strategies you could walk in your classroom and use the day you receive your book. Every teacher, from classroom teachers to reading specialists to literacy coaches to tutors to home-school teachers, from pre serviice teachers to veteran teachers, will quickly and easily be able to find the strategies they need to teach the students in front of them. And the strategies will help readers at every level internalize skills necessary to read fiction and non fiction, to write and talk about reading, and to read and comprehend with deeper insight. The author, Jennifer Serravallo likens the book to a cookbook that the reader will hopefully outgrow someday, but I can't put it down. It will make you wish you wish it wasn't summer. The inviting, easy to find pages with lots of charts and practical tips will invite you to start tabbing pages, highlighting and organizing yourself for next year! In addition, it's the perfect gift for a teacher friend, or relative. I just ordered two copies for my soon to be teaching daughters. Only one regret... why couldn't this have been published when I started teaching....I would have been such a better teacher!Great For Parents Too I teach high school math. My daughter was struggling with reading and not getting the help she needed from school. Her teacher seemed to put confidence in the fact that I teach, but I was clueless about teaching reading to a first grader. I was desperate and found The Reading Strategies Book.Reading the chapter introductions allowed me to pinpoint my child’s needs. I could easily determine which chapter to read thoroughly and which chapters to skim.I read every chapter and my book is full of post-its. I realized some mistakes I was making (hiding the pictures so that she would read the words, rather than allowing her to use them as a resource), some things I was doing right, and some new things to try. This book has given me the guidance I needed to support my reader.I have already noticed a difference in our read-aloud time since I began reading. She is gaining confidence because I have been complimenting her “good reader strategies”. Reading has become less stressful because when she gets a word incorrect I have new tools for how to have her correct herself. Rather than just telling her to try again, I have learned to prompt her to look at the first letter, look at the last letter, try a different vowel sound, etc.I am thrilled with the change this book is already making for my daughter. I even found a strategy or two that I can tweak for my math classes.
