Deep doo doo=the best book of the 20th century
Deep Doo Doo is about two boys who spoof a governers campagin by using a transmitter to overide the local tv news station. Bennet and Pete use Pete's dog to inturrupt the governer's speeches. This book left me hanging at the end of evrey chapter. Michael Delany knew what classic american literature was when he wrote this book.

A GREAT BOOK!!!!!!
I think this book is my favorite book (And I read a lot of them, trust me). This book has great characters and I liked the plot a lot. The gerbil press conference really made me laugh. READ IT!!!!

For Traning the Trainer
Looking for an excellent resource for train-the-trainer? For me, the first edition of this book was is it, and now the new edition is even better:well organized into six parts, each with a prologue and a chapter-ending summary, followed by a set of key related questions. From udnerstanding needs analysis to writing a proposal, or doing an instructional design, and knowing trends, a trainer will find it here. The book gives case-specific guidance that goes beyond theory, and it's also loaded with graphs and charts and resources. It's user friendly for the novice as well as for the seasoned trainers who will find this book of value, especially as training is moving rapidly into mediated practices.

A Must Have!
This "train the trainer" new edition provides important information for the fledging trainer to the veteran. The Training Cycle (assessment, design, implementation, and evaluation) and ensuing chapters cover the principles of good training program design along with various roles trainers perform in their workplace. My favorite chapter is Chapter 5, especially the section on Adult Learning. Since most trainees are adult learners, it's important to understand that facilitating the trainee through a learning process is different than teaching a child -- something that trainers/instructors in this country don't seem to know much about. The authors have added some nice resources such as PowerPoint presentations for each chapter along with end-of-chapter web addresses providing links to additional material and/or organizations. And the interviews with six practicing experts bring the "real world" into the classroom. Bravo to the authors -- this new edition is a Must Have!

"Just in time" advice and "how-to" examples
How to get the "right training to the right people at the right time" is a complex question answered succinctly by the three authors of Training for Organizations. An excellent resource for students and HR staff, TfO does not, for instance, merely tell you how important it is to prepare return-on-investment oriented training proposals for organizations - (where ROI remains king), they give examples, as well as useful examples of charts, graphs, lists, catalogs that will inform your planning, proposing, administering and implementing of training initiatives. You want a thorough guide and rationale for your training proposal, and this book will give you the competitive edge tht makes sure YOUR proposal not only gets accepted but also succeeds. As an added bonus, several highly relevant, easy to read discussions with top training practitioners give you their most recent thinking on how to use technology most effectively in your training mission. A most useful blending of theory and practice.

Good reference
I bought it as a reference book during an MBA class in Financial Statement Analysis. Helpful and complete.

If I were capable of emotion, I would exclaim, "Amazing!"
In all honesty, this is the sexiest thing ever to be committed to the printed page. All the players are here: FASB, AICPA, APA, IASB, EITF...delicious. Discussions on technical bulletins, interpretations and opinions are all concise and easy to understand, but still so lovingly complete. I used this book every single day in accounting theory and it proved incalculably useful. Clocking in at over 1,200 pages, the girth of this tome also made me feel more masculine as I lugged its enormousness past the droves of simpering art and english majors.

This book is especially useful if you need to research a wide range of accounting topics quickly. The format is very clean and easy to follow, but this is by no means a replacement for your other, likely numerous, accounting books. Basic to intermediate accounting knowledge is assumed and the level of detail is not akin to your standard accounting textbook; as there are relatively few examples and practice exercises (though they ARE there). If you are an accounting student, or just need to keep current, this is an invaluable tool. FYI: It also makes an excellent bludgeon.

A great, easy-to-read guide!
I've been using the Wiley GAAP guide for the past four years and I couldn't practice without it. It presents the standards in a clear and easy to read format. I find the interpretations tell me exactly what I need to know in plain English. I always know I can depend on this book for information and keep in handy on my desk at all times.

Excellent Book by a First-time author
I just finished "Walk a Mile in My Shoes" and thoroughly enjoyed this book! i was impressed with the realism of the story and the development of the characters. some of the situations reminded me of my own childhood. i would recommend this book to others and would encourage this author to write more.

Excellent book you wont want to put down
"Walk a Mile in My Shoes" grabbed me from the start! The story was excellent and while you thought you knew what was to come, the author cleverly threw you a curve ball. The theme was realistic and easy to relate to. I definitely recommend this book and look forward to this authors next work. I can't believe this was his first book, very good job!

Definitely the one you would want to take home!
"Walk A Mile In MY Shoes" was awesome! Not one time did I want to put this book down!! It's a laughing out loud,a tear dropper as well as a suspense book. Waiting for the Author's next book!
