This attractively illustrated retelling of the book of Zechariah will teach young readers about the major lessons found in this minor prophet.  Long ago in Israel, God sent a young prophet named Zechariah (whose name means, “the Lord remembers”) to encourage his people. They had stopped rebuilding God’s temple and had become distracted and discouraged,so God showed Zechariah eight visions to encourage the people to finish the temple and live right.  Brian Wright and John Brown show how Zechariah’s prophecy ultimately points to Jesus.  This minor prophet offers major lessons, teaching readers about grace and encouraging obedience, two aspects of the Christian life as essential today as when Zechariah first wrote.

God called him to tell His people that He had seen the bad things they were doing – and the pain and suffering they caused.

Amos brings them a warning of judgement – but also a message of hope.  Brian Wright and John Brown show how Amos’s prophecy ultimately points to Jesus.  This minor prophet offers major lessons, teaching readers about repentance and promoting justice, two aspects of the Christian life as essential today as when Amos first wrote.

Few books on software project management have been as influential and timeless as The Mythical Man-Month. With a blend of software engineering facts and thought-provoking opinions, Fred Brooks offers insight for anyone managing complex projects. These essays draw from his experience as project manager for the IBM System/360 computer family and then for OS/360, its massive software system. Now, 20 years after the initial publication of his book, Brooks has revisited his original ideas and added new thoughts and advice, both for readers already familiar with his work and for readers discovering it for the first time.The added chapters contain (1) a crisp condensation of all the propositions asserted in the original book, including Brooks' central argument in The Mythical Man-Month: that large programming projects suffer management problems different from small ones due to the division of labor; that the conceptual integrity of the product is therefore critical; and that it is difficult but possible to achieve this unity; (2) Brooks' view of these propositions a generation later; (3) a reprint of his classic 1986 paper "No Silver Bullet"; and (4) today's thoughts on the 1986 assertion, "There will be no silver bullet within ten years."

If you are going to care for someone, you must first understand them. If you're going to hire, marry, or befriend someone, you have to be able to see them. If you are going to work closely with someone, you have to be able to make them feel recognized and valued.As David Brooks observes, "The older I get, the more I come to the certainty that there is one skill at the center of any healthy family, company, classroom, community or nation: the ability to see each other, to know other people, to make them feel valued, heard and understood."And yet we humans don't do this well. All around us are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us to do better, posing questions that are essential for all of us.Driven by his trademark sense of curiosity, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience, and from the worlds of theatre, history, and education, to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more understanding and considerate towards others; it helps readers find the joy that comes from being seen. ... Unknown localization key: "more"
