Unlike other books about ultrasound written for medical professionals, Your baby's ultrasound for the sex and beyond is exclusively written for soon-to-be mothers and fathers. The author as both a mother and an obstetric sonograher for the past 17 years, with simple words and illustrations reveals remarkable and valuable information for the expecting parents to ensure having the most thorough sonogram for their developing baby. The parents-to-be are also going to discover the answers to many of their frequently asked questions regarding a parental ultrasound such as these and many more: 1) How reliable is an ultrasound for identifying the sex of the baby? 2) How can expecting parents understand the black and white images? 3) What are some of the modern techniques such as three and four-dimensional ultrasounds and how do they compare with traditional methods? 4) Does a normal ultrasound guarantee a healthy baby? The book also includes sonograms, tables and illustrations that thoroughly cover the topic. It is written in such a way that a non medical person can easily understand. Reference, glossary, and Index are also listed at the end, which can provide the reader with even further information.

 | Adversity Quotient at Work by Paul G. Stolz
Make Everyday Challenges The Key To Your Success --Putting the Principles of AQ Into ActionIn 1997, Paul Stoltz unleashed a revolution with his groundbreaking book Adversity Quotient: Turning Obstacles into Opportunities, introducing the concept of the Adversity Quotient into public consciousness. Now, in Adversity Quotient @ Work, the eagerly anticipated follow-up to his bestseller, Stoltz applies the principles of his brilliant theory to the uniquely challenging environment of the workplace. Adversity Quotient, or AQ, is a measure of one's ability to handle adversity. People who can't handle adversity become easily overwhelmed and emotional, then pull back and stop trying; those who handle adversity well become the leaders of today and tomorrow. Stoltz shows you not only how to measure your own AQ but how to improve it, and how to put these ideas to work for you and your organization. Based on the time-tested principles established by his first book, Adversity Quotient@ Work clearly demonstrates how workers and managers can use the concept of AQ to their own advantage and to the benefit of their clients, customers, and organizations. Designed for managers, supervisors, and employees, from the smallest technology start-up to the largest Fortune 500 multinational, Adversity Quotient @ Work gives readers simple, powerful ways to supercharge their lives and organizations immediately. Adversity Quotient @ Work teaches readers how to hire and retain highly motivated and talented workers, develop employees to their full potential, and create a leadership culture that encourages all to put forth their best efforts and maximize their performance capabilities. Based on real research performed with thousands of managers and members of the workforce on the front lines of hundreds of businesses, it will quickly become any corporation's indispensable handbook for success.

 | Thought Contagion by Aaron Lynch
Memetics expert Aaron Lynch works out the conceptual basis for a new science of thought contagion, and argues that ideas and beliefs act like viruses when they spread--the evolution of an idea or belief in society being akin to the evolution of living organisms--and that the survival and strength of any particular idea depends on the effectiveness of its programming for its own retransmission.
