  1. Brain Works

    As someone who is fascinated by how the brain works, from both a personal & professional viewpoint, I would love to take a look at Amy Brann's book.

    I have read the odd book in my time on this subject (my son was born with part of his brain missing so its been amazing to watch him rewire himself to function near normally) so it would be good to see what's new in the book.

    Thanks

  2. INFORMAL LEARNING AT WORK by Paul Matthews

    I'm very interested in reading Informal Learning at Work — this is an area that is critical to our staff's development and yet as learning professionals we (in my company) are largely outside the informal learning sphere… I've been reading articles and whitepapers as I come across them but have yet to find something that will improve my practice as I work with the supervisors whose staff I develop training for.  Cheers, Cindy

  3. STRETCH: LEADING BEYOND BOUNDARIES

    I am interested in STRETCH: LEADING BEYOND BOUNDARIES by James Brook and Dr Paul Brewerton, it sounds like an action research project and I am currently learning about action research, an interesting subject.

     

    Thanks
