Reframed

""In Reframed: Self-Reg for a Just Society we join Stuart Shanker on his personal journey to redefine age-old questions related to the capacity of humans to regulate their behaviour.""--Stephen W. Porges, PhD, Distinguished University Scientist, Indiana University, Professor of Psychiatry, University of North Carolina, and originator of the Polyvagal Theory ""What if there existed a book with a masterful integration of contemporary neuroscience, research on human development, educational theory, and philosophical thought? What if this knowledge was reinterpreted from the perspective of stories about children and what fosters or holds back their developmental potential? And what if the journey led to the conclusion that it is possible to create a genuinely just society? That book is in our hands now, and it is up to us as a society to make the choice to follow its wisdom.""--Alan Fogel, Professor of Psychology Emeritus University of Utah and author of Body Sense: The Science and Practice of Embodied Self-Awareness (W. W. Norton, 2013) ""This is a beautiful book, brimming with hope. Through Self-Reg principles and vivid real-life examples, Shanker explains what a Blue Brain/Red Brain balance is and how parents, educators, and coaches can help young children and teens achieve it.""--Barbara J. King, Department of Anthropology, College of William & Mary, Author of How Animals Grieve
