As a pediatrician I have noticed that over the last two decades, parents have forgotten what it means to make the right decisions for the well being of their children. Modern parents think that if their child cries, they must immediately do something to stop it, regardless of the effects of doing so. As a result, children in our society have become misbehaved, obese, and socially incapable of adapting to the demands of the adult world. From the first few weeks of life and into adulthood, it is your responsibility to create a healthful environment for your children. That requires perseverence in spite of their persistent requests for unhealthy foods, endless toys and a free pass on behavior. It requires a commitment to recognizing the long term effects of constantly giving in to whining and temper tantrums, to permitting aggressive behavior and complying in the face of guilt and blackmail. Crystoppers offers a practical guide to assist parents in making wise, well-informed, healthful decisions for their children.

In the last hundred years of industrial advancement, a great deal of scientific progress has been made in the field of efficiency studies. Known as human resources management among those who study these things, the main quest has always been how to control human thoughts and actions so that everything works to the maximum benefit of those who control these human resources. Accordingly, the most 'efficient' system is one that controls the human resources by eliminating the human part and turning them into pure resources. In other words, their ultimate organizational goal is to transform people into things. This is the quest of all efficiency experts and human resources managers and what is commonly called organizational behavior. This book is about the two best historical examples of such 'efficiently-run' resource management.
