I was taking a year off to travel around the world and I was going to spend a good six months in the South Pacific. Although I had read a lot of history on the war prior to this, I wanted a good general history to tie everything together. I wanted one as in-depth as I could get.

Jones NavPress Publishing Group, 2007 Because they might as well hear it from us first My kids are 7 & 10 and I am starting this series with them, beginning with this book. We recently had a baby and this, of course, sparked many questions. They giggled through some of the terminology, but it's important to me that we talk about this within our family so that when they hear "things" from other kids, they'll know the truth and will open up to us about what they've heard. I didn't ...             The Nordstrom Way: The Inside Story of America's #1 Customer Service Company18 reviews Robert Spector, Patrick D. McCarthy Wiley, 1996 A Worthwhile Look into the Nordstrom Culture The Nordstrom Way was not developed overnight. It has been four generations and over one hundred years in the making. It is a culture, not an act that can be turned on and off. It is a pleasure also to have its recent top salesman Patrick McCarthy share his story. The Nordstrom Way oozes with pride... the pride of providing a top-rate retail experience. Salesmen are empowered to make ...             The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 Facts About the World's Greatest Human54 reviews Ian Spector Gotham, 2007 Hilarious1 I got this for my son as he has a puggle named Chuck Norris!

Guggenheim Museum, 2007 A princely catalogue Since I will not be lucky enough to see the exhibition at the Guggenheim, I am very happy to be able to say that this is one of the best art books I have ordered so far.

No matter what industry you are in, or the size ...             Data Manipulation with R (Use R)4 reviews Phil Spector Springer, 2008 a must for statisticians wanting to learn R This book along with Jim Albert's should be read by every statistician that does a lot of statistical computing.

I'm a long time automotive entrepreneur, now making my business online communities and specialized professional networks, and an old time Wharton School alumni, so when this book was announced I naturally had to buy and read it.

Therefore, this little yellow paperback book is a must-read for those who do not know that the "e" at the beginning of e-commerce does not stand for "easy". Indeed, similar to its counterparts, Amazon.com was also born in a garage and then became an e-commerce giant ...             In the Ruins of Empire: The Japanese Surrender and the Battle for Postwar Asia9 reviews Ronald Spector Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2008 Bush should have read this This is a great summary of Asia in the post-war years. I was surprised at the extent of US and European involvement in China, Korea, and other countries after Japan surrendered. One of the key themes is how foreign liberating armies can soon become occupiers. Americans in China soon found this out after US marines were accused of raping a Chinese student. In other countries, the liberating ...             Category Killers: The Retail Revolution and Its Impact on Consumer Culture3 reviews Robert Spector Harvard Business School Press, 2005 The Current Retailing Revolution, Not the First/Not the Last Recently I needed a set of tires. I made the rounds of the traditional tire chains in my small town. The quotes from the three stores were just about identical at $600. I went to WalMart -- $400. Same mileage guarantee, same 'we fix flats and rotate,' and a warranty that was truly nationwide. Please explain why I shouldn't have bought the tires I needed at WalMart.

Its key strength is that it is concise and therefore a good choice for working students without much time to spend on a full-length textbook. However, the advantages end with the short length; the book skims over so much material that could be of great utility in the interest ...             Industrial and Organizational Psychology: Research and Practice2 reviews Paul E.
