"Schools cannot teach character . . . Schools have to create an environment that models and promotes character development, and then they have to allow the children to ‘catch’ character from the behavior of the adults and students around them."
Author: James P. Comer, Maurice Falk Professor of Child Psychiatry"There′s enormous interest in emotional intelligence and brain-friendly learning, and this book is an excellent contribution to the debate."

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - `Particularly interesting is the section on 'Making It Happen in Your School', in which the editors make a powerful case for specifically addressing emotional learning as a skill area. They tell of the Massachusetts school superintendent who found that 'parents and community members were at least as interested in having children living in the community who were kind, caring, and non-violent as they were in having kids who were smart'. Every UK headteacher will nod agreement. There's enormous interest in emotional intelligence and brain-friendly learning, and this book is an excellent contribution to the debate' - Gerald Haigh, Times Educational Supplement.
