A Lesson in Not Judging a Book by Prior Beliefs
One of the problems with the our culture is that it is now so easy to fine tune what we are exposed to. We can watch TV news slanted to our already held political beliefs (CNN or Fox?). We can careful craft an iPod program so that we're never exposed to a rap ditty because we're so sure there isn't even one we'd like. We do the same on the net. Many have discarded their newspaper, for heaven's ...

"Courage to Create"
I have taught a Psychology of Creativity course for over 13 years now and this has been the only book I have ordered for every single course. Not only does May describe the creative process (e.g., the encounter), blocks (fear of life/death), environment (history, mythology) but he DOES offer real-life practical solutions in terms of self-questioning. A Humanistic, Transpersonal, Existential ...

More than a kids' "busybook"
The craft instructions in this book are indeed easy, fun, cheap to do (etc) for kids. But the best part was the discussion in the back of the book on appropriate levels of creative projects for kids of different ages. It clearly outlined what attention span and dexterity level you should expect from kids of different ages. And it had useful advice for adults on how to make the project fun for ...
Strategy: Create and Implement the Best Strategy for Your Business

Essential guide to implementing business strategy
Too many businesses fail to make the connection between strategy and implementation. Having great ideas is terrific, but they won't do you much good if you can't execute them. Years ago, Sam Walton may have suspected that high volume and low prices would lead to extraordinary retail success, but he understood that he would need a dependable system to deliver the goods. This practical manual ...

Creating your own hand-printed cloth
This is a terrific resource for any fiber artist and is well written and beautifully illustrated. Gillman covers printing, stamping, stenciling, screening printing with paints and thickened dyes, and the hard-to-find instructions for the deconstructed screen-printing and gelatin monoprint techniques that are so popular now. One of the most valuable chapters is the final one, Going Back In, where ...

, 2007
Full of wisdom
The typical Steve Chandler book takes some things you already know and expresses them in a pithy and effective manner, and takes a few that you don't know and amplifies them in the same pithy and succinct manner. Those new thoughts invariably make you sit up, wrinkle your brow, and evaluate carefully. Dale Carnegie said "The ideas I stand for are not mine. I borrowed them from Socrates. I swiped ...

Did Man Create God? Is Your Spirtual Brain at Peace with Your Thinking Brain
As I move through the chapters, I can see that Dr. Comings has masterfully laid out his theme. The chapters feel like he is building a house. I especially found interesting the discussion on String Theory and Quantum Physics most interesting. He lays out to the reader with no previous knowledge on these theories, how they can go towards explaining how the universe could have come into being ...

Great book
I found this book to be an interesting and informative read. While I am interested in linguistics (and thus was probably a bit more excited about the topic than the average person), I think this book would also be enjoyable for anyone. Pinker writes in an understandable manner, mostly avoiding linguistic jargon and always explaining complex topics in a generally understandable way. ...

All-in-one guide to running a product organization
I attended one of Marty's product management seminars a couple of months ago, and found it excellent. This book collects the material from his seminar into a complete, easy-to-read format. Personally, I found the sections on organizational structure, roles and responsibilities most useful, but the sections on the product discovery and development process are excellent as well. I think the ...

Great Designs utilizing nature's beauty
This is not a beginners book on making jewelry, even though the basics are discussed in the back, but rather a focus on natural stones that are commonly used in today's jewelry designs. I have to admit I am biased due to my background in geology and my own designs using natural gemstones and even common stones. This book appealed to me for that reason but also in how the stones are discussed ...

His analysis of hundreds of companies confirms the reality of what Hartung calls "innovation lock-in" - the paralyzing effects organizations suffer when ...
