What would we do without Anthony Sampson! Here is another Sampson book that carefully analyses an important part of western business culture to show us what it's really all about. Sampson always impresses with his grasp of the issues, but what I like most is his humanity. He is keen to show exactly what the changing business culture has done to the people in it, and who the winners and losers are. Sampson is not just another corporate booster, and combines the rigour of an academic with the narrative skills of a professional writer. All in all, this is a balanced book and a good read from one of our most insightful writers on business issues.

I really enjoyed playing Compete. It gave my group and me to compete with other groups. We had to analyze financial statements and observe graphs. We'd enter prices and the number of units to be sold in each region etc. We had to be careful about everything we did. One mistake could ruin everything. It was very exciting and interesting. I'd definitely recommend it.

This book is a great book for anyone studying for the CCS-P examination by AHIMA. Provides coding tips as well as clinical explanations for diagnoses. Extensive coding exersises provide you with many examples of speciality coding using ICD-9-CM, CPT, and HCPCS. Also a must have for any medical practice as a useful reference tool. Well worth the investment.

I've read much of Steve Newell's work in Golf World Magazine in the UK and have always rated him highly. He may not be a big name player or teacher but he clearly has the ability to write instructional editorial that's both enlightening and entertaining. There's nothing new in this instructional book, but it's set out well, easy to follow and as useful as any I've read.

I had the chance to meet Glise personally after one of his concerts in Paris (he lives not far from here, in N. France). A BRILLIANT person, kind, open, honest and unbelievably knowledgable in his field.
This collection of the sonatas is a result of 20+ years of research, performance and recording experience. It has become the "final word" on performance practice for the 19th century on the guitar. Note that the preface (of over 100 pages!!!???) is written in English, French, German AND Italian - just another testament to Glise's genius. More details are available at: www.AnthonyGlise.com.

This is a great book for anyone interested in educational technology. The author provides a historical look at how computers have been used in schools. Although, the book was written for administrators, it is a good read and valuable resource for researchers, teachers, parents and students. Unfortunately, the book is outdated as it was published in 1994. It is also out of print.

Anthony Thiselton is a well known name in evangelical circles for his extensive work in contemporary hermeneutics and exegesis through titles such as "New Horizons in Hermeneutics" (1992), "Two Horizons" (1980), and the more recent "The First Epistle to the Corinthians" (2000; New International Greek Testament Commentary Series). Thiselton's most recent work is a compendium of his insights into major figures and trends within contemporary hermeneutical, theological and philosophical thought. And students of these contemporary issues will not be disappointed with the timeliness and depth of the topics covered.

"A Concise Encyclopedia of the Philosophy of Religion" is precisely that; an encyclopedia containing over 300 entries and sub-entries relevant to any informed discussion of philosophy of religion. In addition to the classic figures generally present in such discussions, Thiselton brings to the table all those others who are just as relevant and crucial to contemporary discussions. Although it is more than tempting to list all the names covered by Thiselton, I will list only a few I was quick to look up: Austin, Ayer, Barthes, Bergson, Chisholm, Derrida, Hartshorne, Henry, Husserl, Levinas, Malcolm, Plantinga, Quine, Swinburne, Whitehead, and Wolterstorff.

All of Thiselton's articles are cross-referenced to allow you to find other topics related to your inquiry within the encyclopedia. He also intentionally explains "virtually every unfamiliar technical term, and will introduce unfamiliar thinkers". This is an excellent resource for students and laymen. I have used this frequently while writing papers or to gain refreshed insight into the thought of a particular figure mentioned in my other readings.

This book can be recommended for students of theology and philosophy, and will be of particular interest to those pursuing contemporary theology, hermeneutics, postmodern theology, historical theology, and philosophy of religion. The book's intent is to provide a contemporary, up-to-date textbook for university level students in these fields. Thus it may prove helpful to teachers striving to expose their students to these same issues.

La Conquista del Polo Sur es una de las obras de teatro más maravillosas que existe, la forma en que este autor trata las utopías del hombre y su deseo de alcanzar lo inalcanzable, con la visión paralela de la gran expedición que hizo Shackleton al polo sur es magistral.

Anthony De Mello pulls no punches with his theology or his belief that we are all weak creatures that could be making a hell of a lot more with our lives. This book is a wonderful introduction to the Retreat experience and helps guide the reader through the process of settling into the mediatative state a religious retreat requires. De Mello is tough on the reader (not with his prose, but with his tone) and expects action - spiritual, mental and physical - and won't settle for complacency or laziness. Thank you for the wake up call!

Don't do what I did - I read this during my retreat; I should have read it before. Nonetheless, it was an eye-opener - a finger pointing the way (don't concentrate on the finger, focus on the way).

This book was intended to be an assessing vulgar Marxism officially. but we should read this book as the attempt to examplify his structuration theory. if u read his major theoretical works like 'central problems in social theory', 'the constitution of society', u must feel get lost for lack of concrete example and abstractness. his writing style on theorizing is not that applausable. sure it's not confined only to him. most theorists in sociology are not better him. even worse, their conceptualizing lack succintness and articulateness. at least Giddens has them. this book must be read as giving example to his structuration theory. sure his critic of vulgar Marxism is also interesting and has good points. but his points in this book like power, time-space distanciation, tradition, nation-state, the discontinuity of capitialism, ~~~ are not intrinsic to Marxism per se. sure his critic is valid but it rather effective to provide good examples to his own theory.
