Great Autobiography for Tech Afficionados
This was an outstanding autobiography that gave me real insight into Steve Wozniak's life journey and thought process. Most interesting and prevelant was the invention of the first PC, but the book goes beyond that. As a tech person myself, I really liked how he would stop and describe how things worked as it related to how it shaped his life. Some of it was interesting and easy to understand ...

A Teacher's Dream
I'm glad I purchased this book during summer break. It gives advice on how to prepare 30 different centers along with amusing management tips. It is a lot to digest and prepare but its "ready to copy" log sheets for student accountability, and the materials lists for each center, makes set up a snap. The centers work on skills that I have taught and practiced at different times during the ...

Challenges your thinking
Interesting a reviewer said Baucham teaches "Beating kids=good! Evolution=Bad!" ...it tells you right there that reviewer has succumbed to the culture that Baucham ironically warns people against (the culture says spanking=beating kids and macroevolution=fact). For everyone else, this book shows Christians how our practices have been influenced by the culture (rather than the other way around) ...

A MUST READ FOR CHRISTIANS
Conservative evangels have misdirected the development of Christian Faith by gimmicks, acronyms, and rigid doctrine. Henry directs us back to the basics of developing our own faith and nurturing others through experience. IT IS A MUST READ !

World is Truly Smaller
With all the international trade and travel to and from foreign countries this book prepares all people in the cultures and foreign courtesies each of us should at least have an idea of. Most foreigners appreciate even the most small recognition that we can expend toward their culture and practices even if we make small blunders in doing so - it shows we are aware that there are differences in ...
Losing My Virginity: How I've Survived, Had Fun, and Made a Fortune Doing Business My Way

Richard Branson
Three Rivers Press
, 1999
Exciting, unpredictable, and revealing
Few autobiographies have the luxury of encompassing such a fascinating topic as Richard Branson who has led a life filled with unremitting vivacious action. Filled with modesty and a nerve that has him taking near unheard of risks (both personal and in business), Losing My Virginity reads like a roller coaster through all the ups and downs of Branson's life. Richard Branson has created an ...

Overcoming Inertia - Uniting New Knowledge with Action
Two stellar professors use their experience and research to address the problem of organizational inertia in spite of our wide-spread and prevailing knowledge. The premise is that a gap exists between our knowledge and the application of that knowledge in business... and that it can be closed. It cites that every year 1,700 business books are published, 60 billion dollars spent on training, ...

Showcases lessons about entrepreneurialism learned during the author's adventure of running a huge company he built in China.
I liked this book. It's another one of those books where the author was a successful W-2 worker for a large US company whom decided to go out on his own and try to build a large company that he could own and run. Last October (2007) I read and reviewed on Amazon Maxine Clark's story that she told in "The Bear Necessities of Business" (ISBN: 0470139056). The instant book being reviewed has a ...

Great self-help... if you follow thorugh it...
Even though this book was written in 1999, I only came across it in 2005, and took my time to read it. It has been very helpful in identifying why I sometimes do what I do, and what I need to change. It is true that one size does not fit all, and that is why this book is written in a "coaching" manner of asking the right questions in the assignments so that we take time to reflect on these ...

What goes on in a successful CEO's head
Many years ago, Patrick Rivett described his efforts to teach problem solving model building to his students as showing them "what goes on in an analyst's head when he is taken round a soap factory." You can describe Jim Kilts' Doing What Matters as "what goes on in an experienced CEO's head when he takes over a company that needs to turn around." Hardly anyone has better credentials to write ...

so good my advisor is going to use it
This book is great. It has all you need to complete a research paper at any level. I used it for my bachelor's project which, according to my advisor, is equivalent to a Master's thesis in content requirement. My advisor has asked me to lend him the book so he can use it to revise the current research manual supplied by the college. This book is easy to read and has a lot of useful tables and ...

Practical, easy tips for overcoming procrastination
There are a number of procrastination books on the market, but this is by far the best for its simple solutions and practical insights. Like other books on the subject, the author deals with the psychological aspects of procrastination, but unlike other books, she keeps it simple, using real-life stories and examples. Highly recommended. NOTE: THIS REVIEW WAS WRITTEN BY THE AUTHOR OF "NEVER BE ...

I picked up this book at the beginning of my third year of teaching. I found exactly what I needed to advance my instruction to the next level. I developed student-friendly learning targets for each math unit. I communicated the learning targets to students and families at the beginning of the unit. Students were strongly encouraged to use the learning targets to evaluate their own learning. ...

Very Informative
This is an excellent book for iPod owners. It very simply presents each topic on a separate page with a color photo at the top. For another excellent book, take a look at iPod Fully Loaded. This book is great! It tells you exactly how to put virtually anything onto your iPod. These two books are all you need. Buy them both.
