Anybody familiar with "Love and Logic Magic for Early Childhood"?

I just started reading this book, which talks about letting children make choices rather than just telling them no, showing empathy instead of anger, etc. It makes a lot of sense for a toddler who can converse with you, but I'm having trouble applying this to my strong-willed, very independent 14-month old. Just curious if anybody is familiar with this book or class, or other parenting methods that work well with a toddler this age. My daughter can understand, "Where is your ball?" and "Give the baby a kiss," but I think, "Would you like to put your jacket on now, or when we get to the door?" would be lost on her. She throws some pretty major tantrums when I have to put her coat on, change her diaper, or take her away from something she wants to play with, and I'm hoping to find a way to manage these tantrums before she turns into an impossible teenager!

This book falls in the "attachment parenting" category, that board may have some insight on this book in specific?  If you're interested in some attachment-y strategies for discipline, here are two of my favorites:

We are reading it and starting to apply it now as well.  Right now, we are working on saying no once and if it not "heard", saying "That's sad" and moving him from the situation.

I am interested in how others are applying it now as well.
