“Drop the flashcards—grit, character, and curiosity matter even more than cognitive skills. A persuasive wake-up call.”—People

Why do some children succeed while others fail? The story we usually tell about childhood and success is the one about intelligence: success comes to those who score highest on tests, from preschool admissions to SATs. But in How Children Succeed, Paul Tough argues that the qualities that matter more have to do with character: skills like perseverance, curiosity, optimism, and self-control.

How Children Succeed introduces us to a new generation of researchers and educators, who, for the first time, are using the tools of science to peel back the mysteries of character. Through their stories—and the stories of the children they are trying to help—Tough reveals how this new knowledge can transform young people’s lives. He uncovers the surprising ways in which parents do—and do not—prepare their children for adulthood. And he provides us with new insights into how to improve the lives of children growing up in poverty. This provocative and profoundly hopeful book will not only inspire and engage readers, it will also change our understanding of childhood itself.

“Illuminates the extremes of American childhood: for rich kids, a safety net drawn so tight it’s a harness; for poor kids, almost nothing to break their fall.”—New York Times

“I learned so much reading this book and I came away full of hope about how we can make life better for all kinds of kids.”—Slate

美系非虚构畅销书可以分成两大类:学者写的,和新闻记者写的。 本书是新闻记者写的。 而且是独立创作,于是不出所料的,是一本”充满详实事例、读起来好玩、不太辩证但有煽动力、作者写自己关心的话题然后起一个与之关系不大但预计好卖的标题“——的这样一本书。 不过并没有“...

只讲了什么重要,没有讲如何做,比如如何让没有勇气的孩子更有勇气呢?关于勇气,这家伙只讲了一页,还是只讲了勇气为啥重要,不过能感觉出作者为了告诉我们性格中哪些重要,确实参考了很多文献,也有一定的分析水平,但真的没啥用啊。

从应试教育到性格教育—儿童教育的未来 考考考,老师的法宝;分分分,学生的命根。这句几十年前流行的顺口溜,至今依然反映着我们国家教育的本质。虽然如今已经慢慢蒙上了“素质教育”的漂亮外衣,诚然在教育体制上有很大的改良和进步,但“一考定终身”的人才选拔机制,依然...

关于坚韧自强等品质的养成,环境比教育更重要。作者用了大量的实验事实来佐证这样简单的一句话? * 紧张的家庭氛围和长期的忽视会给孩子带来巨大的心理压力,并增加成年后患病的比率; *
