See the 1998 version of this book: Communication for Accountants: Strategies for Success published by Irwin/McGraw-Hill. New and improved. Wonderful book.

This book is a useful brief review and compendium of diagnostic neurological information. The paperback version is small enough to carry around or put in a briefcase. The book packs a considerable amount of information into about 400 pages. There are a couple of dozen chapters, organized according to the usual neurological disease categories, and there are a number of nicely done charts and tables that make good, quick references. Keep in mind this book is not intended to be exhaustive and is meant as a quick review or reference. It is intended for practicing physicians, so familiarity with the technical and medical terminology is assumed, and most technical terms are not explained. The book benefits from recent research, and contains up-to-date information on such rapidly changing areas as Alzheimer's. The book has references into Adams and Ropper's larger neurological handbook for those who want more information. Overall a good, concise reference work in neurology.

This is an important albeit not uncontroversial contribution to the field of international political economy. The book tries to answer the question whether the world capitalist system is in crisis and the paths available for future world development. The works are firmly located within the world system thesis expounded by Wallerstein in many of his previous works.

The book intoruduces the concept of 6 vectors within which future paths can be examined. These are the inter-state system; world production; world labour force; human welfare; cohesion of states; and the structures of knowledge.

The book displays the weaknesses inherent in the world system thesis. These include overstating the degree of integration of the economies of the world and thus not taking into account the emergence of "non-states" run either by armed bandits or by organised crime.

The book does not deal adequately with the current state of the state. Given the debate around MNCs and their increasing expansion into areas which were the domain of the state this is an issue needing serious appraisal.

The depiction of this era as being a post US hegemonic era is also an area which will be contested by many writers, not least of all the Fukuyama's of the world.

Wallerstein concludes that the future depends onm how the following factors develop: * the extent to which there is loyalty to citizenship;

* the level of security through police order; the extent to which military orders are maintained; * level of welfare especially in relation to health and food distribution; * stability of religious institutions.

When Maeterlinck was awarded the Nobel prize, this play was singled out for mention as perhaps his masterpiece. It has since fallen into obscurity, but Maeterlinck's experts see it as a pivotal work, marking the transition from his earlier Symbolist plays ( his 'theatre of silence') to his later more conventional ones, with their romantic themes and mellifluous rhetoric. The work stands out for the singular beauty of its style, its rich and subtle psychology, and a sustained note of sensitivity and moral elevation. One of the richest of Maeterlinck's works, the various elements do not, perhaps, coalesce successfully, and the tragic denouement lacks the sheer rightness and inevitability of that of Pelleas and Melisande, Maeterlinkc's most admired play. But it remains one of the works of Maeterlinck most worth exploring, and it rewards repeated re-reading.

I think it was a great book. It really brings the real Shakespeare to life. It is one of the few books I can read again and again.

The actor Maurice Evans penned his story in long-hand in the year before his death. Reading this book is what I always thought having a conversation with him would be like. His regal refined voice sings in your ears as you read the lines!

The book is very detailed on every stage of his life. He writes about the lean years when he was looking for serious work. After he acheives success in the theater, he takes you through every aspect of every stage production he has ever done. He writes extensively on famous personalities with whom he has worked, but remains the gentleman and never has an unkind word for any of them. Yet, you get the idea that he has been very honest. He writes of both good and bad reviews, parts he turned down that he should have taken, and parts he never got offered. He takes you into the less serious work of television that he seems to have enjoyed very much. Lastly, he describes his satisfying retirement.

For theater buffs, it is a great read.

This is an action packed World War II story full of thrilling adventure with one, final sardonic twist. Here is a war novel, not about heroics, but about embittered men whose only concern has become their own survival.

It is a compelling fast moving thriller which cannot fail to grip the reader. It would make a fantastic feature film - one that would make Saving Private Ryan seen tame by comparison.

The story takes place across the Nazi-ravaged countryside of wartime Belgium where a British deserter, Wally Shaw, is on the run, fleeing the fighting and the painful memories that haunt him. Military Police hot on his trail, he plunges into hiding - to find himself in company with three German deserters. The ill-matched quartet team up to form an uneasy alliance. Dodging compatriot and foe alike, the allies rely on black marketeering in the red light district for their livelihood - but they soon find it's rewards less that they might have wished, and together they hatch an incredible plot. Following a dramatic coup in which they rescue from prison Wally's American friend Les Harris, a skillful forger - and in which one of them is killed in the ensuing shoot-out - the allies set forth across Europe on their dangerous mission.

In a concentration camp deep in the heart of Germany, SS General Kaltenbrunner is overseeing the printing of millions of Pounds worth of British bank notes with which to flood and destroy the English economy. The allies' plan is childishly simple: to steal the perfect forgeries, with the help of the beautiful Irene, at the Reich Security Headquarters, and escape to Sweden as millionaires, to spend the rest of their lives in the lap of luxury. But carrying out the plan is less simple: and ingenious as the allies are, fate takes some curious turns, culminating in a breath-taking final scenario.

This is a comprehensive handbook on the methods and techniques of archaeology for amateurs of all ages. It presents a brief introduction to the cultures of early man
in North America and provides detailed information on the practical aspects of the fascinating and fast-growing hobby of archaeology. Photographs, maps, and
drawings complement and explain the text.

Step by step, in nontechnical language, this volume shows the reader how to locate and excavate an archaeological site. As an examplc of the mechanics of an
archaeological survey, it analyzes an area of successful excavation near New Bedford, Massachusetts. It explains how to make a preliminary survey and where to obtain
topographical maps, advises what equipment and precautions are required, and suggests how the techniques of prehistoric archaeology may be applied to the newer
fields of historic and underwater' archaeology.

For those who have already researched and selected their site, the book tells how to organize a "dig," how to lay out a "grid"; discusses the various methods of
excavation and when to employ each.
A separate chapter tells how and when to record information, as well as what cameras and lenses to use in archaeological photography. Other chapters explain how to
identify and classify artifacts; how to clean, preserve, and repair archaeological finds; how finds are dated; and how to write final reports on a site.

Valuable appendixes include a glossary of terms and an index; suggestions for further reading, films, and slides; information about study courses, sites, and museums to
visit; and laws governing the excavation of antiquities. The local, regional, and national societies listed are excellent sources of information on archaeological activity in
specific areas.

The late, great, Maurice Natanson, himself a student and friend of Alfred Schutz, was told by Schutz, "Maybe you will discover that anonymity and death are the same." This profound thought underlies the entire text, as Natanson explores the causes and effects of anonymity (also called abstraction, typification, alienation, or as Dr. Martin Luther King has called it, "the darkness of nobody-ness").. Natanson reminds us that anonymity is not always a bad thing, but when it is instituted as a system upon unwilling participants, then it becomes problematic.

Also, I would recommend the work of Lewis R. Gordon, who adapts Schutz's and Natanson's theories of anonymity to discuss issues of antiblack racism and Africana thought. Gordon's "Existentia Africana," "Her Majesty's Other Children," and "Fanon and the Crisis of European Man" are suggested.
