ADMINISTRACION QUE BUSCA CALIDAD Y UN ELEVADO RENDIMIENTO

A truly remarkable book! Once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down. Original, creative, heartfelt and sincere toasts. "Crisp Toasts" is the answer for "those of us" who don't know exactly what to say and when to say it. It gives you direct guidance on helping you find the "perfect" toast for the "perfect" couple. Sincere and meaningful examples are given, some serious and others funny, and insight as to which one is appropriate depending on the situation. I have recommended it to many friends and relatives. What a wonderful reference book to keep throughout the years.

This book is a good intellectual review of the insidious changes in moral values being engineered by certain New Age type thinkers who have gotten control of our educational system resulting in lower academic standards and greater social engineering. An interesting essay.

After reading this book, and studying the various applications used in the study of statistical analysis of quality control; it has facilitated my understanding of the subject beyond my horizon. I highly recommend this textbook for students as well as those who value the importance in the management of quality control.

Gives depth and insight into the events that occured in China in pre-Pearl Harbor days as well as the antics of the mascot of the 4th Marine Regiment. It is a wonderful book filled with excellent photos and anecdotes. It is amazing that such a small dog could have survived the horrors of Corregidore and Bilibad Prison. the book is well written and should be a part of every historians library. It is an excellent research sourse as well.

This is an excellent book for those who are looking for a guide for whalewatching. But it is more technical than the average, which is good in some cases. FOr me it was very useful when going to sea, because I wanted detailed information, but other people look only for pictures. Which is the only problem here, because they are all in black and white.

This manual contains the technical information necessary for distinguishing similar species at sea. Numerous black-and-white photos show all important field characteristics. Detailed analysis of the field characteristics separating the various large Balaenopterids is especially useful. Species which have been recorded as accidental are also included. Updating information about the presence of Hyperoodon (or Indopacetus??) in Pacific waters near the equator would be useful, although photos of 'unidentified' Ziphidae are included. This is the only book I take out with me for field cruises.

It is just not well written, the quates were not dramatized more maximum effect.

"It is with books as with men: a very small number play a great part."

If you're a public speaker, speechwriter, student or just looking for some new catchy phrases, this book will definitely "play a great part." Full of great quotes (like the one above), jokes and sayings, AND I QUOTE covers almost every topic imaginable. From the traditional subjects of love, failure and wisdom to the modern issues of abortion, drugs and psychotherapy, this book has it all. And no matter what angle you're speaking from, you'll find an appropriate quote from the wide selection available.

The book is well organized and easy to navigate, which makes it an excellent reference. There are reference lists --- listed both alphabetically and by subject --- in the front of the book, which makes looking up quotes quick and easy. The book is divided into six main topics, which are divided further into subtopics and then into specific issues. Each separate issue has well-labeled sections of "quotes", "sayings" and "jokes".

However, the authors have included an added bonus: speech-writing tips! After all, what good is a book of quotes if you don't know how and when to use them? The introduction of AND I QUOTE highlights the dos and don'ts of public speaking and explains when quotes and jokes are appropriate. Even the most experienced speechwriter will find this section useful.

The only thing worse than losing your audience is never having one. AND I QUOTE will make sure that you not only grab your audience's attention, but keep it as well.

I send everyone in our office a quote of the day, and this book is my favorite out of all the books I have. It has just about everything you would ever want in it; quotes, jokes, sayings.... Its GREAT!

Roasts are notoriously frightening. You assume that the roastee will enjoy being roasted but you're not always so sure. This book gives some great quips to start you out. I thougt most of them were on the tame side, a few were a little dated ( kind of reminded me of Johny Carson jokes - which would be fine but I'm not exactly Johny Carson). That could be because I'm a Gen-Xer. If you're trying to roast the CEO and not the CIO, this would probably help you more than it did me. One of the best features was the indexing which was very well done.
