This man is a crook! We lost several million dollars in his company. By far the man with the worst reputation in Hong Kong! Him and his lackey, Jon Hakim, has also cheated investors in their money laundering vehicle, the bar Jah. Not surprisingly, the bar is now closed and we have all lost our investment. Never do business with these con men!

I picked this book up in HK as I was attracted to the author's name, and I felt like a "worky-type-read" on the flight back to Singapore.

I am pleased to say that the book did not deliver a formal set of rules and regulations; there's none of the usual "stuffy-academia-business-values" and what it does offer is some sound advice by a person who's done it or "walked-the-walk" as he refers to in his book.

The 10 steps all make sense, are not mind-boggling and are laid out in an easy-to-understand, fun As with the best managerial books around, you cherry-pick and can apply the principles you like to other business sectors and even everyday life.

I do not know Mr Khan but I will congratulate him on what is in my mind an excellent set of principles and certainly ones that I would encourage others to read and try what-ever their vocation.

I finished it in one session, read it all again and have passed it onto my wife. What a breath of fresh air!

A converted underdog

This is a great book to say the least. It was particularly meaningful to me since I am a senior at college looking for jobs. This book not only inspired me, gave me ideas, told me what to do and how to do it right (if I decided to head out on my own in the world) but also was a wonderful reminder of what I can do if I put my mind to it. The life stories and experinces that are shared in this book are great. These experiences are from a number of entrprenuers and I personally belive will be helpful to all people for dealing with many situations in life. I highly recommend this book to everyone. This, to me, is an insanely good book.

This is a fine enough introduction to Monte Carlo scenarios, but only for the highly technically proficient reader. The mathematics is quite sophisticated and probably out of reach for those who want to understand Monte Carlo methods rather than apply them. It is also a very thin book for a very high price.

It is generally a very elementary book, and does not go into more advanced methods (for example, Sobol's low discrepancy series). It does give a number of very good examples of problems that can be tackled by Monte Carlo Methods. If you want a few pages on what Monte Carlo Methods can do,along with a little of bit decent theory, you may want to try this book. However, I am not sure that a person serious enough to spend the money on this book will be enlightened.

I enjoyed (and enjoying) this book. However, I gave it a three due to it being $54.00 for 100 pages. A little overpriced.

I was sent this book to read for the honors program at my college, and in my opinion, it is a far cry from the "masterpiece" that the Sunday Times hails it as. Parts have beautiful wording and imagery, but on the whole this book is a long, slow, and pitiful read. Alliteration is used far too often, and thus bogs down the already scattered story line. Unless it is required reading, I don't suggest this book unless you are most fascinated by the history of the upstarts of automobiles in the US and abroad.
