The author seems to have a cystal ball when he talked about analysts and how they did the wrong thing by investors. Robbing You Blind also hits the nail on the head when it talks about brokers and their wicked ways. Enron 401k messes are predicted in the book and not one soul seems to have cared to take care of the ...             Myths, Lies, & Half-Truths: How Misreading the Bible Neutralizes Christians1 review Gary Demar American Vision, 2004 Excellent, convicting book I purchased this book with a certain amount of skepticism, but quickly became convicted at Demar's arguements that secular humanism is pushing Christianity out of every aspect of life in the United States. Demar presents strong arguements in each of his chapters addressing how the secularists of this age want Christians to keep their "religion" inside the four walls of the church only while ...             Health Care Half-Truths: Too Many Myths, Not Enough Reality4 reviews Carolyn L. Engelhard Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc., 2008 Very clear, quick intro to US health care system in 2007 This book is an excellent, up-to-date overview of how the health care system works as of today. It assumes little prior knowledge, although you might have deeper understanding if you have some (they talk about the Clinton health care reform plan of 1994 but spend little time explaining what it would have done). The book is phrased as a series of "myths," but that seems to me just a gimmick that ...             Half Lives & Half Truths: Confronting the Radioactive Legacies of the Cold War (Resident Scholar Series) Rose Barbara Johnston School for Advanced Research Press, 2007 The long Cold War of the twentieth century has ended, but only now are the poisonous legacies of that "first nuclear age" coming to light. Activists and anthropologists, the authors of this volume reveal the devastating, complex, and long-term environmental health problems afflicting the people who worked in uranium mining and processing, lived in regions dedicated to the construction of nuclear weapons or participated, often unknowingly, in ...             Hard Facts, Dangerous Half-Truths And Total Nonsense: Profiting From Evidence-Based Management36 reviews Jeffrey Pfeffer, Robert I. Sutton Harvard Business School Press, 2006 Another thought provoking work from Pfeffer I've been an avid Pfeffer fan since 'Resource Dependency', so am inclined to give him 5 stars for anything he writes. The main themes in here are extremely thought provoking and are great for jogging one's brain to think thorough one's management assumptions. A few of his analogies are weak...I believe there are better cases as analogies for some of Pfeffer's points. He relies upon his ...             Half-Truths: What's Right (And What's Wrong) With the Cliches You and I Live by Montague Brown Sophia Institute Press, 2003 Discover the truth (and the falsehood) in the sound bites that rule so much of your life! Today they're called sound bits, but they're older by far than sound bites, and they play a larger role in your life ?those pithy, quotable phrass that capture in a few words the wisdom of the world: " If it ain't broke, don't fix it." "Talk is cheap." "It doesn't matter what you believe, so long as you're sincere." "Love is blind." "Beauty is in ...             Half-Truths and One-and-a-Half Truths: Selected Aphorisms1 review Karl Kraus University Of Chicago Press, 1990 Wit and Wisdom For curmudgeons, the best part of the book -- which is largely comprised of six sections of aphorisms, 26 pages of Introduction, and three pages of bibliography -- is the last section entitled "Lord, forgive them...." The title of this section is based on the last one of Karl Kraus' aphorisms edited for this book, a reframing of, or play upon, a New Testament idea: "Lord, forgive them for they ...             All the Essential Half-Truths about Higher Education2 reviews George Dennis O'Brien University Of Chicago Press, 2000 This is a great book! I highly recommend this book whether you are a student, parent of a soon-to-be college student, are considering a career in academia or are just plain curious. It is very well written, witty and highly informative. I always recommend it to my friends in academia, especially when the subject of tenure comes up, which he discusses at length. He also discusses the history of the university, which I ...             Tall Tales, Half-Truths, and Big Fat Lies!1 review Re al Bull Oney LLC iUniverse, Inc., 2006 This book's title speaks for itself My favorite by this author thus far! The title says it all, are our beliefs made up of just that? This book follows the life on planet Earth of Jamison Dargod through sometimes humorous, but always thought provoking adventures. Just who he is and where he came from, you'll have to read the book to discover. The author's knowledge of history is clearly revealed in this story, as he keeps to a ...             Buy the book: our year-end selection of titles for engineers.(5S for the Office)(Framed!)(Hard Facts, ...

To find meaning in Life we must ask ourselves strong, clear genuine questions and more importantly accept the answers. He points to easy solutions offered in psychology, business and religion that do not take us closer to truth. Importantly he reminds us that just to accept the status quo usually does not lead us to a more creative or fulfilling ...             Lies And Half Truths Anthonine W Carter Aventine Press, 2006 Lies and Half Truths is adult fiction, definitely not for the faint-hearted.
