"Does teaching constitute research? Not necessarily. If you think about 
what you do, discuss it openly with peers, view it as problematic and 
change because of the reflection ... then it is research. What I research 
is what I do." - Martin Owen (1999)

"¿Constituye la enseñanza investigación? No necesariamente. Si usted 
piensa en lo que usted hace, habla de ello abiertamente con sus pares, 
véalo como problemático y cambie debido a la reflexión ... entonces esto 
es investigación. Lo que investigo es lo que hago." - Martin Owen (1999)

[Ailist] book recommendation






Dear colleagues, 

If you were to recommend one book on AI to someone unfamiliar with the 
approach, a book that would be a good introduction and give the necessary 
essentials to begin working within the Positive Change Paradigm, what book 
would it be?

A few colleagues are looking at translating and publishing one of the AI 
books into Russian, and there seems to be lots of good books out there. 
We'd prefer a book under 300 pages, something that would not overwhelm the 
reader.

Thanks much!
