David Toop

    5. květen 1949

    David Toop je anglický autor, jehož dílo se zabývá zvukovou kulturou a improvizací. Jeho psaní prozkoumává hluboké spojení mezi zvukem, hudbou a lidskou zkušeností a často se pohybuje na pomezí kritiky, historie a osobní reflexe. Toopův přístup je charakteristický svou interdisciplinaritou a schopností spojovat zdánlivě nesourodé koncepty a hudební žánry. Jeho práce vyzývá čtenáře k zamyšlení nad tím, jak vnímáme a interpretujeme zvuky kolem nás.

      As a complement to The Life Recovery Bible (more than 800,000 copies sold), The Life Recovery Workbook leads the recovering addict into reflection and practical application. By placing the 12 steps of recovery into a firm biblical context, the workbook brings scriptural principles into personal focus. Contemporary "Recovery Profiles," expanded descriptions of each of the 12 steps, and open-ended questions work in unison with The Life Recovery Bible. Far more than just teaching about the 12 steps, the workbook is a guide to an in-depth working of the steps, making the principles of recovery come alive for "one day at a time" living.

    • When most parenting books were written decades ago, they did not address—nor could they address—all the issues parents would face today in the era of technology and excess.

That’s what the Understanding and Loving Your Child series of books will do.Understanding and Loving Your Child with ADHD will guide parents with methods they can use to help children who suffer from ADHD build character and competence rather than conflict, failure, shame, or disconnection.

      "Attitude is everything." It's what makes the difference between those who succeed and those who fail. And it's easy to see-in other people. It's not as easy to recognize when our own attitude needs adjustment, or to know how to change it. In You Are What You Think, David Stoop shows readers how to use self-talk to make positive changes in their attitudes and beliefs. Self-talk can be private speech, thoughts, or external speech, all of which shape emotions and behavior for good or bad. This popular book, previously published as Self-Talk, will help readers overcome stress, guilt, depression, anxiety, and anger; release the power of faith; choose healthy, positive thoughts; and more.

His other books are "Rap Attack 3 "and "Exotica,"

    • "You've been preparing for this moment for years--but as a Christian parent, you are well aware of the kind of ideological indoctrination that takes place on most college campuses. Will your child make it through the next four years with his faith intact? This is a question syndicated radio host Stephen Arterburn hears regularly from his listeners. In Understanding and Loving Your College Student, he teams with life coach James Phillis to help parents develop in their kids a love for God that encompasses their heart, soul, mind, and strength and a love for their neighbors on campus, as well as themselves. This book will help parents of kids still in junior high or high school lay a solid groundwork for living out their faith, offer tools for helping your child select the right school, including financial aid tips, help you let go of the reins of your child's life as he becomes an adult (and makes mistakes in the process), and help you transition from having a child in your home to having a relationship with the adult you have raised.
