The Road to Oz is a complete retelling of how The Wizard of Oz was influenced and created, and attained its iconic status. The new volume by Jay Scarfone and William Stillman will reflect recent research and much more through newly discovered period interviews, media resources of the era, transcriptions and unique contemporary interviews with those who were there. Additionally, never-before-published imagery accompanies the text. In its truth and candor, this new historical contribution is ideal to tie-in with the 2018-19 80th anniversary of the 1939 movie.Tantalizing highlights of the text include:· A thorough synopsis of L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) and the script, inspired by the book, of the 1903 Broadway musical-comedy extravaganza.· An overview of the plots of prior silent film adaptations of Oz and how they influenced the M-G-M film.· An analysis of newly-discovered audio transcriptions of Wizard of Oz radio programs from 1931-32 and 1937-38—all of which were previously unknown.· A complete accounting of Sam Goldwyn’s proposed (and aborted) 1934 Technicolor musical version of Oz starring Eddie Cantor (including commentary from Cantor’s sole surviving child).· A thorough analysis of the October 10, 1938 M-G-M shooting script (provided by descendants of comedian and Cowardly Lion actor Bert Lahr) that predates the beginning of production by seventy-two hours.· Startling revelations about the operetta that seemingly inspired “Over the Rainbow.”· Judy Garland’s trials and tribulations with the studio, including the threat that M-G-M was grooming a sound-alike who tested for Oz.· The supporting player who was cast in two roles in Oz’s fantasy sequence—the second role revealed for the first time in Scarfone and Stillman’s text.· The Munchkin midgets’ pre-1939 Wizard of Oz connection.· Oz’s film editor with a direct connection to Walt Disney and Snow White.· Studio nepotism, favoritism and politics at the height of Hollywood’s golden age on the making of the world’s most famous film.

Parents, caregivers and educators are often at a loss about how best to support an individual with autism because they are overwhelmed by 'behaviours', inundated with prognoses and clinical jargon, or confused by technical information. This book introduces autism from a non-clinical, humanist perspective, emphasizing that we are all more alike than different. The author deconstructs the fundamental concepts of the autistic experience using language, examples and anecdotes that are concrete and understandable for all. Reinforced for the reader is the importance of listening carefully to what people are telling us about valuing differences, personal passions, communication, and holistic wellness.

Außergewöhnlich, erhellend, wegweisend ... Das erste Buch über Autismus und Spiritualität!Autismus wird immer öfter diagnostiziert. In den USA ist er bei Kindern bereits weiter verbreitet als Krebs oder das Down-Syndrom. Auch bei uns ist schon jedes 150. Kind betroffen. Dabei ist keine einzelne Ursache bekannt – so wenig wie ein Heilmittel. Die Betroffenen werden als Opfer bezeichnet, ihrer Fähigkeiten beraubt durch eine verheerende Krankheit. Autismus wird als Gebrechen und als Strafe beschrieben. Aber was, wenn es vielmehr einen Zweck verfolgt? Was, wenn ein Plan dahintersteht? Was, wenn Autismus eine spezielle Begabung ist? Sachkundig und als Ergebnis jahrelanger Recherchen stellt dieses Buch die traditionellen Auffassungen über Autismus in Frage. Es hat das Zeug, durch die geschilderten Fälle, die der Autor in seiner Beratertätigkeit selbst erlebte, unsere Sichtweise für immer zu verändern."Autismus ist keine Laune der Natur. Es ist eine besondere Ausrichtung des Bewusstseins durch die feinstofflichen Schwingungen unserer Umwelt. Stillmans Erkenntnisse sind einfach atemberaubend!" – Meg Blackburn Losey, Autorin von The Children of NowWilliam Stillman, der weltweit einzige Experte für Autismus und Spiritualität, weist selbst das Asperger-Syndrom auf. Er forscht über die besonderen mentalen Fähigkeiten von Menschen mit Autismus und die großartigen Chancen, die sich durch den Austausch mit ihnen bieten. Sein Werk soll verfilmt werden.

Dabei ist eine allgemein gültige Ursache nicht bekannt. Hochrechnungen nach wird 2050 weltweit die Hälfte aller Kinder betroffen sein. Welchen Grund hat dieser dramatische Anstieg? Wir wissen, dass damit Fähigkeiten und Sensibilisierungen einhergehen, die uns heute noch unerklärlich sind. Ist Autismus vielleicht ein natürlicher Teil unserer Evolution? Wir können mehr darüber erfahren. Wir können uns in die Gedankenwelt dieser Menschen einfühlen. Wir können uns sogar selbst der zahlreichen Talente bedienen, die Kinder und Erwachsene mit Autismus auszeichnen. Es gibt so viel zu lernen von unseren Freunden mit Autismus über die Erweiterung des Bewusstseins. Sie gehen uns voran bei der Entwicklung einer neuen Menschheit.Das neue Buch des Autors von AUTISMUS UND DIE VERBUNDENHEIT MIT GOTT.Gewinner des Nautilus Book Award für Bücher, die unsere Gesellschaft verändern!William Stillman ist Autor von zehn Elternratgebern und weist selbst das Asperger-Syndrom auf. Als einziger Experte für Autismus und Spiritualität schreibt er für Fachmagazine, hält Vorträge, Workshops, macht TV-Auftritte und arbeitet als Berater für US-Behörden und Betroffene. Sein Schwerpunkt sind die besonderen mentalen Fähigkeiten von Menschen mit Autismus.Am vorliegenden Buch wurden bereits die Filmrechte vergeben.Die Mutter eines Kindes mit Autismus schreibt: »In zwanzig oder dreißig Jahren wird es vielleicht mehr autistische als nicht-autistische Menschen geben. Die Kinder, die zu den Führungspersönlichkeiten von morgen gehören werden, werden ziemlich wahrscheinlich autistisch sein und Größe besitzen … Autismus ist Evolution!«
