1.When Markets Collide: Investment Strategies for the Age of Global Economic Change by: Mohamed El-Erian May 23, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $27.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $18.45 You Save: $9.50 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $14.23
This book got my attention after I saw Alan Greenspan had commented on it on the back cover. Surprised at first as he rarely recommends books publicly, I decided to check into it. Sadly, the book was terrible. It is very convoluted and difficult to understand and didn't not present any non-elementary insight. Mohamed's book reminds me of a prof I had in college who would love to use big words but say absolutely nothing. Nothing is new here. Basically Mohamed El-Erian is a Oxford graduate turned PhD who late in his career entered the Investment Management game(he freely admits that). He managed the Harvard University's endowment fund and then recently quit and moved to the bonds management company PIMCO as a Co-CEO (seriously, who still thinks Co-CEO is a good idea). I suspect ... Read More

2.Now, Discover Your Strengths by: Marcus Buckingham, Donald O. Clifton January 29, 2001

Nice concept that could have been handled with a 10 page paper. Clearly authors had to have some volume to prove value so they drone on and on and on. Very tedious reading. Then at every turn they continue to try to sell other products or services. The major killer is having an online exam to evalute your strengths; however, the code is only good once - so DON'T buy a used book as your code will be invalid. If the exam is a work related exercise, you'll be forced to buy a new book just for the code. Also, DON'T let your spouse read the book. If you do, they'll want to take the exam and suprise suprise, you would need another new book just to take the test.

5.Intermediate Accounting, Update by: Donald E. Kieso December 10, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $135.64 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $114.95
Intermediate Accounting, Update Intermediate Accounting is a comprehensive, attractive textbook. The usefulness of the exercises is curtailed by the lack of an answer section. I guess it is a marketing ploy to produce workbooks separately instead of providing even abbreviated answers in textbooks, nowadays. Apart from this deficiency, the book is very useful for studying accounting principles.

6.Financial Accounting: Tools for Business Decision Making by: Paul D. Kimmel, Jerry J. Weygandt, Donald E. Kieso 2006-02
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $113.47 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $34.35
This book and the service surrounding it is absolute garbage. The positive reviews it has received are highly dubious. The book is very unclear with terminology, and the lack of answer keys to check your progress makes this worse. If you're buying this used be prepared to wade through red tape to get access to an answer key. 70 bucks for a single semester of access, and you won't have access as soon as you pay, you will also need a url from your instructor to access the site. I understand why this is needed for your class specific information but to simply access the sites tools, like an answer sheet, should not require anything more than your subscription...actually it should have come with the book. I have taken two other classes with website support material and I did not have ... Read More

7.The Answer: Grow Any Business, Achieve Financial Freedom, and Live an Extraordinary Life by: John Assaraf, Murray Smith May 20, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $25.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $17.13 You Save: $8.82 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $15.42
Phenomenal!!! "The Answer, Grow Any Business, Achieve Financial Freedom, & Live an Extraordinary Life' by John Assaraf & Murray Smith is an impressive book about money, success, & happiness, written by a featured teacher of 'The Secret' along with his co-author who has created multi-million dollar companies. This book answers many important questions that you may have about creating a successful business, especially the question of paramount importance 'how am I going to make money in my business?' Step-by-step,clear, easy to follow instructions. Another book I recommend is a fantastic New Age Novel I've recently discovered, called "Nexus" by Deborah Morrison & Arvind Singh, Nexus: A Neo Novel

8.The New Rules of Marketing and PR: How to Use News Releases, Blogs, Podcasting, Viral Marketing and Online Media to Reach Buyers Directly by: David Meerman Scott June 04, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $24.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $16.47 You Save: $8.48 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $15.91
The book is a an excellent introduction to the new e-PR and e-marketing techniques, and full of concrete methods on how to tackle these issues. The only catch is that it is full of repetition: same advices and same examples repeated over and over again. I think is the repetitions are taken off, the book could be shrunk down to 100 pages

9.Fast Food Nation by: Eric Schlosser July 05, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $14.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $10.17 You Save: $4.78 (32%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $4.95
In Eric Schlosser's first devastating book on the malpractices of the fast food industry, he pieces together history, facts, and numerous sources to reveal some disturbing truths about their nature. Fast Food Nation is less an expose` on how unhealthy junk food is than a look into the operations of the food industry, specifically McDonalds. The book is divided into two sections: the first, "The American Way," is concerned primarily with the growth and development of the fast food chains, beginning around the 40s in southern California and soon burgeoning into multiple restaurants across the US. Schlosser details the rise of the Speedee Service System, advertising techniques the emphasis on conformity by the chains, and their consolidation of power. The next section, "Meat and Potatoes," details ... Read More

10.Fish! A Remarkable Way to Boost Morale and Improve Results by: Stephen C. Lundin, Harry Paul, John Christensen March 08, 2000

We used Fish! as a team-building exercise at work. We read about 20 pages a week and then discussed. Even people who don't like to read, enjoyed it because it's such a quick, easy, story. I did get CD's for a few people. This was a group that needed to become cohesive, and after the second week, everyone was animated about Fish! People shared their own experiences as it related to the story. Very easy discussion starter. Now they want to take a field trip from Kansas City to Seattle to visit Pike Place Fish Market!
