Waldorf education is a wonderful thing, but it doesn't always turn out quite the way its founder, Rudolf Steiner, expected. No matter how spiritual, anthroposophical or Waldorfian we become, we are still human beings and we do the funny, admirable or reprehensible things that human beings of all stripes do; but there is something in the Waldorf atmosphere that makes these things funnier, more admirable or more reprehensible.

In "The Education of a Waldorf Teacher" the author describes how he learned the facts of Waldorf life the hard way, takes a sympathetic look at the problems of...

Is Klaus Hubel a true seeker after enlightenment, or is he merely using his spiritual aspirations to provide an excuse for a succession of love affairs with teenage girls?

Although other scientists had observed some of the phenomena that Charles Darwin addressed, he was the first to theorize that natural selection, and later, evolution, were viable explanations for the origins...

Because the technique of multiple linear regression has been accepted by the research community since 1975, Keith McNeil, Isadore Newman, and Francis J. Kelly devote little space to defending the equivalence of correlational and ANOVA procedures with multiple linear regression. Instead, they show how the multiple linear regression technique frees the researcher from wondering if an analysis can be done and refocuses him or her back to the central concern: the research question itself.

The first three sections of chapter 1 provide a conceptual, research, and statistical orientation to the...

This innovative work by the noted scholar, diplomat, legal expert and writer Francis Deng moves the study of negotiation out of the limited traditional context of industrial relations and resituates it in a broader cultural framework, that includes the values and patterns of behaviour relevant to negotiating both personal and international diplomatic relations, and embraces both tribal culture and the complexities of international foreign affairs. Negotiation, the management of human relations in order to facilitate cooperation and the harmonisation of incompatible or conflictual...
