Recently, in our Improving our Programs subforum, Ellen suggested,
Hecate, Herbie and I thought that that was a great idea, so Herbie and I went ahead and made it to see how it goes. We have an amazing community here, and I am very eager to learn about what each of you have liked. What books inspired you? What books gave you hope? What books taught you the skills that you use every day?
As this forum grows, it will be much much easier for people to use the forum if we stick stick to one thread per item, whether the item is a book, a DVD, a CD, an online program, or anything else. Therefore, we request that when you want to post your review, take a look to see if there is already a thread going about the item you want to review, and add your review to that thread instead of starting another. Successful forums frequently organize reviews sections this way because it keeps things neatly organized and makes the discussions much easier to follow, especially when one review refers to another.
At some point we will add a consistent scheme for naming threads so that the forum is easier to navigate and set up polls for each thread so that people can easily rate items and see others' ratings, but let's put that off for now and just have fun writing and sharing our thoughts.
I am thinking it would be useful to start a subforum for book reviews. I think with what Herbie refers to as "knowledge therapy" being so important in TMS healing, it would be useful to go to one location and see what others have to say about a particular book before we decide whether to purchase it or not. I suppose it could be broadened to include other forms of media as well.
What do others think?
