    <![CDATA[<strong>From one of the world’s leading thinkers and speakers on creativity and self-fulfillment, a breakthrough book about talent, passion, and achievement</strong><br/><br/>The element is the point at which natural talent meets personal passion. When people arrive at the element, they feel most themselves and most inspired and achieve at their highest levels. <em>The Element</em> draws on the stories of a wide range of people, from ex-Beatle Paul McCartney to Matt Groening, creator of <em>The Simpsons</em>; from Meg Ryan to Gillian Lynne, who choreographed the Broadway productions of <em>Cats</em> and <em>The Phantom of the Opera</em>; and from writer Arianna Huffington to renowned physicist Richard Feynman and others, including business leaders and athletes. It explores the components of this new paradigm: The diversity of intelligence, the power of imagination and creativity, and the importance of commitment to our own capabilities.<br/><br/> With a wry sense of humor, Ken Robinson looks at the conditions that enable us to find ourselves in the element and those that stifle that possibility. He shows that age and occupation are no barrier, and that once we have found our path we can help others to do so as well. <em>The Element</em> shows the vital need to enhance creativity and innovation by thinking differently about human resources and imagination. It is also an essential strategy for transforming education, business, and communities to meet the challenges of living and succeeding in the twenty-first century.]]>

    <![CDATA[&quot;This really is a remarkable book. It does for human resources what Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring did for the environment. It makes you wonder why we insist on sustaining an education system that is narrow, partial, entirely inappropriate for the 21st century and deeply destructive of human potential when human beings have so much latent creative ability to offer. A brilliant analysis.&quot; Wally Olins, Founder, Wolff-Olins &quot;Competitive advantage does not come from the Internet. It comes from leveraging creativity . All corporate leaders should read this book.&quot; Professor Richard Scase, author, Britain in 2010 &quot;I thoroughly recommend this excellent book. Developing our latent creative ability is vital for personal and professional success. Ken Robinson gives us the signposts we need to achieve this.&quot; Sir John Harvey Jones &quot;If you would like to start to unlock the inherent creativity that exists in every human being (including you), then start (you have to) by reading this book!&quot; Simon Woodroffe, Founder, Yo Sushi, and former Entrepreneur of the Year &quot;Ken Robinson’s is an original and creative mind. I can think of no better spokesperson on creativity. His views are as much directed to learning institutions as they are to industry. Out of Our Minds is a genuine challenge to complacency.&quot; Ruth Spellman, Chief Executive of Investors in People, UK &quot;Sometimes a writer has an uncanny knack of sharply focusing something which up until then you had not seen in all its simplicity and brilliance. This book does that but at the next moment it makes connections never before imagined…Even the most obstinately prosaic and safe thinkers will be tempted out of their box by Ken Robinson’s ideas, theories and speculations. What’s more, he writes as he speaks, in a way that, magnetically and compulsively, is simply irresistible&quot; Professor Tim Brighouse, Director of Education, Birmingham]]>

    <![CDATA[The arts have an essential place in education whatever the social and economic circumstances of the day. However, we are now faced with a new world with new attitudes towards social relations, employment, work and non-work. These raise fundamental questions about the purposes of schooling, about the balance of the curriculum and about the whole character of education in Britain. The recent major reports and statements which have been issued by the Secretaries of State, HMI and the Schools Council, for one reason or another, have included only brief references to the arts. It would be a serious matter if this were to lead to arts being given low priorities in schools, now or in the future. This book argues the case for the arts in schools and considers the consequent implications and conclusions. Our conviction is that schools must develop broader not narrower curricula and that the arts have an important place within this approach. '. it should be not merely placed but forced into the hands of all heads, governors and administrators . The book bristles with practical organisational suggestions...'

    <![CDATA[ Are you looking for a really fun, engaging and exciting way to learn English? Opening Up! is filled with fun essays and great vocabulary from the author's personal experiences, ones that we all go through during our lives. What better way to learn English than by discussing in small groups different topics that we can all relate to because we have all experienced them? It brings to life such topics as childhood dreams, shopping, anger management, TV, school, and the list goes on. This book was designed by two authors who have taught English for ten years and they understand the pitfalls that come with learning a second language. This book was designed to help avoid those pitfalls. It's fun! It's interesting! And it's real! You can sit down alone or with any number of people and enjoy practicing English while you laugh and share your own experiences and opinions.  ]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong> A breakthrough book about talent, passion, and achievement from one of the world's leading thinkers on creativity and self-fulfillment. </strong><br/><br/> The Element is the point at which natural talent meets personal passion. When people arrive at the Element, they feel most themselves and most inspired and achieve at their highest levels. With a wry sense of humor, Ken Robinson looks at the conditions that enable us to find ourselves in the Element and those that stifle that possibility. Drawing on the stories of a wide range of people, including Paul McCartney, Matt Groening, Richard Branson, Arianna Huffington, and Bart Conner, he shows that age and occupation are no barrier and that this is the essential strategy for transform­ing education, business, and communities in the twenty-first century. <br/><br/>]]>
