From the perspective of a Career Coach
It is commendable that Mr. Bolles is so thorough in updating this bible for job seekers each year with additional information, resources,guidance and wisdom. By now, Mr Bolles could easily "rest on his laurels," make only modest changes and release each year's new edition. However, in my view he always adds rich new material each year and it is worth the investment even if you have a previoys ...

Motivational Book On De-Cluttering and Living a Less Stressful Life
After reading and enjoying "Enough Already!" by Peter Walsh, I purchased his earlier book, "It's All Too Much." I enjoyed this one too. The book's subtitle is "An Easy Plan For Living A Richer Life With Less Stuff" and I found that to be just what this book was. I think one of the most important lines of the book comes near the end when Walsh writes, "Getting organized for the sake of ...

It is packed with useful information.

The test's assessment of me was right on target!
I was shocked that the online test component of this book's strengths assessment could figure me out so accurately. The insights are very helpful as I seek to improve my personal performance & effectiveness. It renders clear directives for career enhancement. And with the book's low cost, it is vastly more economical than other similar personality profiling tests.

The Power of Believing
This book is all about increasing the chances of getting what you want by believing that you CAN get it. Written in the 1940's, this book is still pretty popular. Interestingly, it's concepts are still being written about in more recent works such as "The Secret".

Napoleon Hill
BN Publishing
, 2007
Classic
This is a great book for inspiration. Don't expect getting anything practical out of it, just pure inspiration. It's not the holy bible, it's not a sacred Maya script... but it's a Napoleon Hill book, worth buying and worth glancing at from time to time. The language is clear and direct. And it seems to be a whole lot cheaper than it was when I bought it (I have the 1st edition hardcover, a ...

Don't Shoot The Dog - Positive Training
This book started it all. Read this book first, then "The Culture Clash" by Jean Donaldson, then "The Other End of the Leash" by Patricia McConnell, then any of the books by Turid Rugaas. If you make it this far, there are many other books and DVDs you will have become familiar with. You'll be a better dog owner or trainer and fewer dogs will receive negative punishment or perhaps end up in a ...

What a fun read
I loved reading this book! The author points out,in a light manner, those little things that erode life through stress or anxiety. By giving 100 simple fun ways to NOT sweat the small stuff, I walked away lighter.
