Howard was my coach and as that coach he motivated and drove you to believe in yourself under all conditions. The Edge is Howard repeating his past as one of the greatest wrestling coaches (10 State Titles)and business professional in the history of the state of Ohio. The Edge captures the great words of various athletes and how these exceptional leaders in their sport delt with all avenues of adversity. I, today, still use these quotes and words of motivation to bring out the very best in myself and in the people I manage in the sales arena. The Edge is one book that will stand the test of time and continue to echo the timeless words of our sport heroes of the past. Thanks Ferg for all the memories and this one of a kind book!

The Edge motivated my son to be a state champion in wrestling in a competitive state. Reading the book as an 8th grader, he started to write quotes from the book on 3 by 5 cards and carried them wherever he would go and would read them often to keep himself focused on winning a title even though at times he barely would be good enough to make the team at times. The book taught him that hard work makes dreams come true and that persistance does pay off in the end. The lessons learned from this book have proven to be lifelong and after he did win the state title, he has shown consistently that the lessons were long lasting into his life after wrestling. The book is a must for young people of all ages. Thanks Howard for giving us this treasure.

I have been a competetive high school, collegiate, and international athlete. Now I am a successful High School coach. There has never been a better book to aid you in dealing with all aspects of sport. The Edge compiles some of the greatest athletes and coaches' "secrets to success." This is a must have for both the beginning athlete and the seasoned coach.

Can any kind soul tell me which 4 exams are covered by this book? it received only one star for lack of this vital information. Thanks.

This pack is a collection of 3 books:

MCSD Training Guide: Visual Basic 6 Exams (70-175 & 70-176) ISBN:0735700028

MCSD Training Guide: Solution Architectures (70-100) ISBN:0735700265

MCSE Training Guide: SQL Server 7 Database Design (70-029) ISBN:0735700044

The average rank of these books is 4 stars (better and cheaper than Microsoft's books). It may not be sufficient for the exam. I think I am going to buy: -MCSD in a Nutshell: The Visual Basic Exams ISBN:1565927524 -Exam Cram Vb6 Core Three : McSd 70-175, 70-176, 70-100 ISBN:1576103935

Hope it's helpful

4 in 1! This is really good, I appreciate. However the ultimate goal is passing exams. I hope this have not been forgone for the price. As I can see all in one helps reduce redundancy and above all provides greater level of consistence. I even value the book much higher for hitting the points straight while maintaining its readability. The techniques used to represent the precepts are not only being suitable for providing exams concepts but also intellectually refreshing, since for most professionals studying means discoveries of new tricks, ways and knowledge to accomplish daily challenges. By the way: thanks to the author.
