Every parent will tell you it is no easy task raising a child in today’s society and many would love to have a manual available to look up a solution to the problems that arise each day. 10 Steps to Almost Perfect Parenting offers a path that parents can take that will help guide them through the formative parenting years offering up the details of how to navigate through parenthood while preparing your childhood for adulthood.

Your go-to guide for your parenting questions, from the author of the breakthrough No-Cry series "Perfect Parenting will give you the tools you need to feel confident as you raise your children. This handy reference book may become an indispensable part of your family's life." -- from the foreword by William Sears, M.D. Perfect Parenting is parenting with a plan. It is based on: action, not reaction thoughtfulness, not anger knowledge, not chance common sense, not nonsense This A-Z guide of practical ideas will inspire you to find the right answers for the many discipline and behavior issues you face every day. Inside you will find many options and methods that can help you be thoughtful in your approach to raising your children. You'll learn what to do about back talk, dawdling, interrupting, stubbornness, whining. You'll find ways to get your kids to do the chores, stop ignoring you, and clean up their own messes. You'll even learn what to do about other people's children! Elizabeth Pantley designed a questionnaire addressing discipline problems and sent it to hundreds of parents. Their answers shaped this book to make it the most useful, practical book on discipline available today.

Raising an almost perfect pet does not happen by accident. When people acquire pets, they may not be certain about what to expect, but few anticipate the problems that can result--including expenses, health care issues and bad behaviors--or the emotional investment that comes with a true commitment to another living being. Being prepared, having realistic expectations, and raising pets with desired outcomes can make the experience one to be treasured. This handbook is a complete guide to dog and cat care aimed at pet owners wishing to raise healthy, happy pets and to foster a lasting, loving relationship with their four-legged friends.

This is the only book on a novel fundamental method that uses quantum many body theoretical approach to synthesis of nanomaterials by design. This approach allows the first-principle prediction of transport properties of strongly spatially non-uniform systems, such as small QDs and molecules, where currently used DFT-based methods either fail, or have to use empirical parameters. The book discusses modified algorithms that allow mimicking experimental synthesis of novel nanomaterials---to compare the results with the theoretical predictions--and provides already developed electronic templates of sub-nanoscale systems and molecules that can be used as components of larger materials/fluidic systems. - The only publication on quantum many body theoretical approach to synthesis of nano- and sub-nanoscale systems by design. - Novel and existing many-body field theoretical, computational methods are developed and used to realize the theoretical predictions for materials for IR sensors, light sources, information storage and processing, electronics, light harvesting, etc. Novel algorithms for EMD and NEMD molecular simulations of the materials' synthesis processes and charge-spin transport in synthesized systems are developed and described. - Includes the first ever models of Ni-O quantum wires supported by existing experimental data. - All-inclusive analysis of existing experimental data versus the obtained theoretical predictions and nanomaterials templates.
