This book talks about what is right and should be mandatory reading for all corporate officers, government employees and people in leadership roles. The book will motivate you, get you to stop and think, as well as give you ideas about how to improve yourself, your organization and your company. Fantastic Book that I am going to make all of my people read!

Reading this book made me stop and take a good hard look at myself and my honesty. It should be required reading for Bill Clinton as well as any- one in the public eye.

This book is totally awesome! Really hard origami, though. Still, if you can do it, the models are totally impressive.

Marc Kirschenbaum's book is a wonderful collection of origami models with a fantastic theme. The models are high intermediate in difficultly, but clearly diagrammed and should prove a pleasant challenge for experienced folders. The theme of all musicians is delightful and unique among origami collections! In addition, Mr. Kirschenbaum has prefaced each model with insights to his creative process as well as friendly folding tips which anticipate the trickier folding manoeuvres he's created. This really gives the books a personal touch and makes the diagrams much more accessible. Thank you for creating such a wonderful book!

An incredible piece of work! I want to congratulate the authors for this work of art. Well-chosen words, self explanatory equations. Great, great! I encourage these authors to write more books like this.

Dude, I LOVE this book. I couldn't put it down...this is a MUST-READ! If there's one thing I want for Christmas, it's this work of art. Superbly written and well-executed...it just keeps getting better.. GOOD JOB BOYS!

I love this song. Although made famous by Peter, Paul and Mary, the creative genius stems from Willy Welch. He perfectly captures the memories and emotions of the young daydreaming ballplayer in all of us. This is truly a magical book, and I recommend for any parent or grandparent.

Every man who ever played any form of baseball needs to read this book to a youngster,especially if he was always the last chosen for a team. If "Playing Right Field" by Willy Welch doesn't stir the reader's emotional caulderon, be sure and check their pulse. Not only do I relate to this work in my own childhood, but also as a former baseball coach. Welch captured the essence of how one might reflect on those childhood days, filled with a mixture of happy and painful memories. How well I remember being chosen last for the team, being last to bat, playing right field...and of catching a difficult popup-fly ball. The artistic work of illustrator Marc Simont beautifully adds to "Playing Right Field." And the poetry was a natural to be matched with music, and is performed by folk artists Peter, Paul and Mary, on their albums "No Easy Walk to Freedom" and "Peter, Paul and Mommy Two." I rank this on the top rung of children's poetry, along with such greats as "Where The Sidewalk Ends" and "The Butterfly Jar." This is a book everyone should own!

Friedman's dramatic, richly detailed book is essential reading for those wanting to understand the Nobel physics and chemistry decisions in their first fifty years.

This is the 100th anniversary of the Nobel prizes, and it's a wonder it took this long for someone to take a good look at what went on behind the scenes in Stockholm for all these years. Friedman's book dishes dirt but does it with white gloves and a magnifying glass. The footnotes are just as much fun as the book itself. The book answers some of the questions about the wierdness associated with the Nobels. For one: What did they have against Einstein? The conspiratorial answer is here in the chapter - "Einstein Must Never Get a Nobel Prize." For another: Who got the money when they didn't award a prize?

This book is eminently readable from several professional angles. It has delicious Nobel trivia hidden on every page. It explains science so that I can understand most of it, even quantum theory. I wish there were photographs of the winners and the major players, and I wish the list of winners would have included descriptions of what they won for, but those are only slight criticisms.

The story of the intrigue and pettiness behind the Nobels is presented chronologically. Most important to me was that Friedman not only explains what happened - and he deserves extra credit for cheerfully explaining the tedious machinations behind Swedish scholarly politics - but presents the motivation, much of it a surprising pro-German bent, behind the events.

I am acquainted with Prof. Friedman, and only a fellow with a deep sense of professionalism and and an equally sharp sense of humor and irony could have pulled this off.

A fantastic story of good things happening to an unassuming work horse who quietly lives her life in the shadow of three very spoiled and malicious show horses. A story that shows us that it is very easy to take the good things in our lives for granted. The number of times my mother read this story to me as a kid are countless. I only hope that my own children will remember this story as well as I do when they are grown up. A story to be passed on for generations.

Polly's Oats is a truly wonderful tale about a poor old work horse who saves the day and the other posh horses that live on the farm. This book demonstrates that goodness always prevails in the end. I am now 34 years old and think of my grandmother reading this book to me often. It was my favorite childhood story. I own this book in its original hardcover form, yet have searched out to obtain another copy only to find it was out of print. This is a joy to find!! I'm grinning ear -to-ear. In order for my husband to marry me, he had to read this delightful tale to me the night before our wedding. God bless you for putting this back in circulation. Aside from the story line I also have always enjoyed the pencil drawing illustrations in this little jem.

Panama has many good things going for it. First, it's the safest place in Central or South America (the Pinkerton Global Intelligence Agency recently gave Panama its highest rating for tourist safety). It's also one of the most developed countries south of the United States (home to some of the biggest companies in the world, including 120 banking giants and other Fortune 500 companies, including Federal Express, DHL, Sears, Price Costco, and Bell South).

Plus, Panama has a stable government, a stable currency (the U.S. dollar since 1904), and virtually no inflation. In other words, this country is the exception to the rule in Central America. As The Economist recently reported, in Central America, "Panama has stood apart, sustained by its Canal, its banks, and its free-trade zone."

In other words, Panama has its act together. And is poised to become one of the most attractive overseas havens in the world in years to come.

All of these factors add to the value of creating a foundation in Panama, even if you don't choose it as a retirement haven.

The Panama foundation described in this book is a modest priced alternative to the Liechtenstein foundation, on which it was patterned. But as the Panama legislation is several decades newer, it is more flexible and offers a useful alternative to the average investor seeking offshore asset protection.

I really do love this book and my childern loved it, it was one of their favorite books a naptime. It has brite colors, has a good moral ending and is very well illustrated. It was used so much the binding is coming off.
I am looking to buy 3 more books so that i can give them to my grandchildern.
This is GREAT book.

This book is a good book for young readers. It is an easy reader with a good amount of text. This book will show children that material objects aren't as fun and loving as a good friend who cares about you. This book will change the way you think about how important your friends and family are.

This book is about a rabbit who got a new rug. His rug was the most beutiful rug that he had seen before. So rabbit decided to call up all of his friends to come over to see his new rug. But when they got there he wouldn't let anyone step on it so they had to stand against the wall. Everyone got tired of standing so they all left. So then for days rabbit would just stay at home and clean his rug. Soon rabbit realized that a rug isn't a friend and found out that he wasn't having any fun at all. So he decided to have a party with all of his friends.

This book was recommended as a textbook for a 4th year course in real estate development and it reads like one. It is well organized and covers this broad subject with detailed, practical information in a systematic way.

Most of all I enjoyed the two real life case study storys (of the development of an office building and a high-rise apartment) that weave through the chapters. These were very candidly told by the developers themselves and give the real picture of the trials and tribulations of large project real estate development.

Numerous listings of information sources, web sites, and bibliographies at the end of each section makes this book a 'keeper' reference text.

This book so clearly articulates the pivotal role of the triad of market, marketability and feasibility studies in the field of real estate development. While the book does not attempt to be all encompassing, the text is dense with financial and other risk analysis distilled from the experience of the authors and contributors.

Although at times it felt like the shudder of taking an ice cold shower, I finished the book feeling refreshed and invigorated to tackle the challenges and opportunities of the risk-reward tradeoff in the development business.

A great review for board certification preperation & general review. The Editors and authors, truely did an outstanding job compressing the world of data into a simple and easy format. My success on the certification exam with ABPS and ABPOPPM was directly helped by this book and BeCertified's course

Comprehensive and Excellent review for individuals preparing for the Primary Podiatric Medicine/Orthopedic Boards. Recommended text for my PPMR residents. Great study guide. Well organized.
