  This book is an exploration of intentional listening as an essential skill for coaches. It introduces the Head, Heart, and Hands Listening model as a vital tool to amplify effective listening in coaching practice. 
   
   
   
  Accessible and applicable, the book explores the three listening modalities of Head, Heart, and Hands as active, though largely unconscious, lenses that inform the potency of our listening.

Chapters are divided into the three listening modalities, Head, Heart, and Hands, and are filled with case studies, stories, reflective questions, and exercises from the author's experience to help coaches strengthen their listening skills. The book also includes a comprehensive listening assessment for coaches to use in practice.

  The Age of Piracy - Buccaneers...

  The Age of Piracy, often referred to as the Golden Age of Piracy, spanned from the late 17th century into the early 18th century, a period when piracy flourished in the Caribbean, the American colonies, and other parts of the world. This era witnessed the rise of some of the most notorious pirates and buccaneers in history, whose exploits have since become legendary. Piracy during this time was not simply a form of lawless adventure but a complex and multifaceted phenomenon deeply connected to the economic and political climate of the time. 
  The origins of piracy in the Caribbean can be traced back to the European colonial expansion. As European powers such as Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands began to establish colonies in the New World, the lucrative trade in goods such as gold, silver, tobacco, and sugar became a prime target for pirates. The Caribbean, with its vast network of islands and busy trade routes, became a breeding ground for piracy. The immense wealth flowing across the oceans from the colonies provided ample opportunity for plunder, while the remote islands and hidden coves offered the perfect sanctuary for pirates to evade capture. 
  Pirates in the Caribbean were not a monolithic group. Many were former sailors or privateers—government-sanctioned pirates who had turned against their employers or found themselves out of work following the end of wartime. These pirates were motivated by various factors, from the pursuit of personal wealth and freedom to the desire for revenge against colonial authorities. The promise of treasure, the lack of enforcement of maritime law, and the chaotic political landscape created an environment where piracy could thrive.

  内容简介：
  本书从句法与形态接口视角主要探讨现代汉语中三个与"得"相关的结构，即带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句和状态补语句，并对这三类结构做出一个较为统一的考察。研究发现，带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句及状态补语句受制于很多共同的限制，如该类结构中的动词都不能受方式状语修饰，该类结构都不能使用肯定的命令式等。本研究不仅可以找出某些带"得"的状态补语句与某些带"得"的可能补语句（或结果补语句）之间存在歧义的根源，还可以揭示与"得"相关的这几类句型之间的内部联系及其背后隐藏的普遍语法规律。

  A Time for Choosing

  Ronald Reagan hosted the General Electric Theater TV series which ran from 1953 to 1962. During this time Reagan visited GE’s 135 plants across the country and spoke to audiences of GE’s 250,000 employees. Reagan’s speech focused on the growing power of federal, state, and local governments and the dangers this posed to free market competition and to American liberty. Over the years Reagan continually refined and improved what came to be known as “The Speech”. 
  Reagan was asked to record a version of his speech to be used to support the presidential campaign of Barry Goldwater during the 1964 presidential campaign. The speech, entitled “A Time for Choosing”, was presented to a national television audience on October 27, 1964, as part of a program titled Rendezvous with Destiny. 
  David Broder of the Washington Post said the speech was "the most successful national political debut since William Jennings Bryan electrified the 1896 Democratic Convention with his 'Cross of Gold' speech." Following the speech, Reagan was elected Governor of California in 1966. This speech launched Reagan’s career on the national stage and contributed to his reputation as “the Great Communicator”.

  Sometimes the heroes are hapless men who get into more trouble than they can handle, while others find a way out of their predicament by getting help from unlikely sources. Sometimes the heroines find themselves in mortal peril because they are not paying attention and have to be rescued by someone else, while others are forced into their predicaments by external forces that require them to be saved or save themselves.
