Excellent Gift!
I purchased this book for my dad as a present this last Father's Day. He was thrilled to receive it and was inspired by the stories and honesty of Tony Dungy. Dungy's such a great man and this book allows readers a closer look at some of the keys to what has made him successful on and off the field.

We Still Hold These Truths: Rediscovering Our Principles, Reclaiming Our Future

Enriching style and substance
A prodigious work communicating the foundation of our American society and government. Although I've had the opportunity to read just the first two chapters, I find its style and substance enriching. For me, so far, this book clearly explained: The Founders believed our rights do not emanate from our great Constitution, but pre-date that work. They are not directly from the great documents ...

Sell THIS!
Do not read this book if you are a sales person with thin skin... but then again, if you have thin skin WHY are you in sales?! ;-) Jeffrey Gitomer does not waste time on niceties (hence the word "little" in the title). Instead he uses his tongue-in-cheek humor to illustrate key ways that one can become a great sales person WITHOUT silly tricks or useless positive affirmations. I recommend this ...

Oracle of Omaha Speaks
There are plenty of books written about Warren Buffett, but what is a better source if not THE source: Warren Buffett. There are just so many lessons to learn from this book. I loved the section where Mr. Buffett explains the Cigar Butts investment style that he practiced before Charlie Munger convinced him to change his style into buying excellent companies at reasonable prices and holding them ...

Who moved my nose?
Most people who don't understand the booming popularity of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) believe the following: 1) The main attraction of the sport is watching two guys pound the living daylights out of each other in a cage with the audience thirsting for blood. 2) MMA fighters are a bunch of unintelligent, psychotic and violent nutcases who should either be committed to a high-security mental ...

The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs: How to Be Insanely Great in Front of Any Audience
19 reviews
Carmine Gallo
McGraw-Hill
, 2009
Focus, Simplify, Practice
Secrets is an engaging read. There are enough stories of Job's mesmerizing presentations (and the failures of other presenters) to keep the reader interested. Examples and resources help one move from bullet-ridden slides to lean, effective alternatives. Presentations should be dramatic, says Gallo, so he structures the book into acts and scenes to drive home that point. Sprinkled throughout ...

Well worth the read!
This is an excellent review of current and past brain research that is critical for those in education and anyone who deals with people on a daily basis. Dr. Medina puts in plain English the neurological and molecular reasons we behave the way we do. It makes you rethink how you not only look at yourself and others, but also how we must change the why we teach and learn. Dr. Medina explains and ...

Great design characteristics book
This well written reference to design characteristics. I has good descriptions of the characteristic, examples, and graphics. I got it to apply to user interface design, but it applies to any design field. I would recommend this along side the Tufte books.

Bread & Butter of any Medical Practice
Having been in primary care medicine for nearly 20 years, I have found Katzung's "Pharmacology" books to be enormously informative and practical at the same time. There always are initial chapters that enable one to review one's biochemistry and physiology of drugs, followed by a balanced and pragmatic summary of all relevant groups of drugs, including their drawbacks and drug interactions. I ...

A great learning tool
I would reccomend this book to a anyone looking for a good basic introduction to electronics or wanting to review their previous knowledge. This book is clear, well formatted, and very easy to use. It was fun to go back and brush up on things that I learned some thirty plus years ago. This book covers a lot of material and makes the learning process simple and enjoyable. It's also great to ...

Marianne Williamson

Saved my life
I credit this and another book (Mad In America: Bad Science, Bad Medicine, and The Enduring Mistreatment of the Mentally Ill) with saving me from suicide. It taught me how to forgive myself and relate peacefully to my higher power at a time when I didn't think either task was possible. Marianne Williamson is clearly not perfect; nobody is. But her nuggets of wisdom are just so good that time and ...

The best and most complete self help book
Wow, is all I can say. Jack Canfield covers every aspect of self help in this one. His plain speaking style and direct no nonsense advice is the best I have read. I was first saw Canfield in the movie "The Secret". He came across as believable and genuine, so I decided to pursue his other stuff. This is my first book that I have gotten from Canfield and am glad I did. I highly recommend ...

Cool fun!
You may well wonder what the big attraction is for a coloring book with all these odd little images. Try it and you'll see. Once you experience the great relaxation to be found in one of these collections of odd images to color, you will wonder how you ever did without them before. Crazy cool book! Turn on some Grateful Dead music and color away!:)

Amazing motivational tool, wonderful insight, a must buy!
I have read many books on weight loss & strength training & never have I read something quite like this. I found myself reading the book & it almost seemed like the book was written for me specifically. There were so many things that related to me in the book it made me laugh at times. I liked when he wrote about excuses & how "I will wait until after the holidays to start getting in shape" ...
