Peter De Jong – författare

Att samtala med klienter på ett effektivt sätt är en konst som går att lära. I stället för att ta den vanliga vägen och fokusera på problem, hjälper Peter De Jong och Insoo Kim Berg dig att utveckla lösningsbyggande tekniker och metoder för att nå bästa resultat i samtalen med dina klienter. De tar dig, steg för steg, genom processen att bygga lösningar i samarbete med klienten. De uppmuntrar dig att tillvarata klientens egen kompetens, då du hjälper dem formulera vilka förändringar de vill se i sina liv och bygga på det som redan fungerar för dem.Boken är skriven på ett konkret sätt utan onödiga facktermer. För den skull fattas inte gedigna teoriavsnitt samt redovisningar av utvärderingar av metoden. I denna omarbetade 4:e upplaga redovisas aktuell forskning kring lösningsbyggande samtal, och hur man kan tillämpa metoden på ett flertal områden, utöver ren psykoterapi. I bokens sista kapitel beskriver ett stort antal praktiker hur Lösningsbyggande samtal kan tillämpas bl a i skolor, fängelser och med personer med våldsproblematik.Bokens tidigare upplagor har kommit ut på svenska under titeln: Att bygga lösningar.

An illustrated history of a remarkable aircraft, the Dornier Do 24, which served both military and humanitarian purposes.Perhaps the most seaworthy flying boat ever built, the elegant, tri-motor Dornier Do 24 served with both the Allied and Axis forces in very different parts of the globe during World War 2, garnering an excellent reputation along the way. This study uses archival records, first-hand accounts and revealing photographs to illuminate the combat career of this remarkable aircraft for the first time in English.The German-built Do 24 was the Netherlands Navy's principal aerial asset during the Japanese invasion of the East Indies. While the survivors of that ordeal served in the Australian Air force, in occupied Holland and France production continued apace and the Do 24 equipped the German Air-Sea rescue service, whose crews loved and respected the machine. The type witnessed the rise and fall of the Luftwaffe over all the European seas, took part in the desperate evacuations of Wehrmacht troops on the Baltic in the face of the overwhelming Soviet advance, and was pressed out of service only with the withdrawal of Spanish Do 24s in 1969.This volume tells the long and eventful story of the faithful Do 24 in full.

Beating its biplane rivals in a 1936 Reich Air Ministry design competition, the Arado Ar 196 provided the Kriegsmarine with possibly the best shipborne reconnaissance seaplane of World War II.Replacing the Heinkel He 60 biplane as the standard catapult-launched floatplane embarked on the Kriegsmarine’s capital ships, the Ar 196 flew an assortment of combat missions during World War II, including coastal patrol, submarine hunting, light bombing, general reconnaissance and convoy escort sorties. The first vessel to take its Ar 196A-1s to sea was the pocket battleship Graf Spee, which embarked two in the autumn of 1939. The battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz could carry six Arados each, the battlecruisers Gneisenau and Scharnhorst four and smaller pocket battleships and cruisers two. Shore-based aircraft were also operated from coastal ports on the Channel, Baltic, North Sea and Bay of Biscay coasts, as well as in the Balkans and Mediterranean.In this book, supported by an excellent selection of photographs and full-colour illustrations, Peter de Jong explores the history of the Arado Ar 196, detailing their development and assessing the combat capabilities of one of the last fighting seaplanes.

Featuring stunning illustrations, this compact volume explores the early successes of the aircraft model and its aces.Although only built in modest numbers principally for the Dutch Air Force, the low-cost monoplane D.XXI fighter enjoyed its greatest success in combat with the Finnish Air Force. The Dutch D.XXIs saw less than a week of action following the German invasion of the west on 10 May 1940, with many of the country’s 28 fighters being destroyed on the ground. However, those that survived the initial onslaught inflicted losses on the Luftwaffe. By then, however, the D.XXI had found everlasting fame in Finland during the Winter War of 1939-40.Proving itself a real thorn in the side of the Soviets, the fighter, operating in primitive conditions and against vastly superior numbers, Finnish D.XXIs racked up an incredible score against the Red Air Force. The D.XXI also has the distinction of producing the first ‘ace in a single mission’ in World War 2, when then 1Lt Jorma Sarvanto shot down six Ilyushin DB-3 bombers on 6 January 1940.Kari Stenman and Peter de Jong chart the history of the planes and their aces. After spending a year providing home defence and flying coastal patrols during the early stages of the Continuation War in 1941, all surviving Finnish Fokker D.XXIs were relegated to the reconnaissance role, which they performed through to the end of hostilities in September 1944.
