I thought the book was pretty good but the movie was much better. This book is a scary kind of non-fiction book. It tells how mean some people can be and how nice a person can be. For instance, being mean like when Carrie gets pig blood dropped on her while she is sitting as a queen at the prom and all the people keep laughing at her. One of the girls who were teasing her felt bad so she told her boyfriend to take her to the prom instead of her.

I read about 30 to 40 novels a year. Through the first five months of 2001, this is far and away the worst book I've read this year. Since it's also one of the worst books I've ever read, it is definitely in the running for my trash novel of the year award.

In "The Inner Sanctum", every character is incredibly stupid, as in of questionable intelligence. Also, with the exception of one guy who is killed at the very beginning of the book, every character is driven in part or in whole by greed; not just the desire to be wealthy, but out and out greed. Even the "hero" of the book, an IRS Agent (can you believe it) named Jesse Hayes, is a bit slow on the uptake and looking to make it big. She's also supposed to be about the best the IRS has to offer. Ah, if it were only the case, I would start claiming my dog as a dependent tomorrow.

Actually, this is one of those books that depend on the stupidity of the characters. If anyone were capable of an original idea, like taking evidence of political and financial malfeasance to the FBI, SEC, or the New York Times, the book would have ended in the second chapter. Instead, it plods along with one of the most contrived and poorly planned plots I've ever encountered. Most of the time I found myself pages ahead of the author in knowing what was going to happen next. Also, Frey has a problem with "action" sequences. He can't write them in any manner that either makes sense or can be followed. So, he depends on that old standby of hack writers everywhere, a professional killer who either keeps killing the wrong people or who loses his ability to shoot straight when he encounters his true target. (I did like the part where Jesse hides behind a tree while the killer is running all around her. That raised stupidity to an almost Homeric level.)

Actually, this book holds out some hope for one segment of the population, wannabe writers. Anyone out there with a really bad novel in the bottom drawer of their desk or on their hard drive should immediately send a copy to Signet books. If they'll publish this drivel, they're likely to publish anything.

The Inner Sanctum has a solid story line and is a fairly good page turner. I would have given the book 4 stars, but the ending is a little weak. The author trys to have the conspiracy go a little too far. Also, the "super action" resolution of this novel is its weakest point. Overall "The Inner Sanctom" is a good if light read.

This book isn't great literature and doesn't claim to be, but it's fine for a lazy afternoon when you just want something to read. It's the kind of book you can enjoy but forget you read a year from now. It also has what you might expect: a plot based on a string of incredible coincidences and 'not-very-deep' characters (I found myself actually hoping that the bad guys would snuff-out the heroine at one point just to shut her up). It provided a pleasant diversion for a few hours which is all I really expected.

I read George's Dark Reunion and liked it enough to think I wanted to read another. Don't bother. Phyllis Reynolds takes her traumatized 8 year old daughter, Celia, to the Lakeside clinic for treatment. She, nor I, knew what she was getting into. The Doctors put scary thoughts into her head, there are creepy noises which they made her listen to and terrifying things came to life at her command. Celia's daddy has just gotten out of prison for abusing her and is on his way to get them. PHyllis has a relationship with Paul Welch and also with Dr. John at the clinic. If this is disconnected, that is what the book is. I doubt I will read another George unless it is given to me, free and clear and I have nothing else to read. Sorry, George.

i think that the guide that came with my book, which shows pictures of the slides that professors are supposed to use was completely usless, if you have to purchase this book for a class, try and get a used copy. It is not worth the price you have to pay. There is another book by Breyli and Meyers titles Corporate Finance which is much more comprehensive and much better.

I'm not a chiropractor nor have I seen one, but read this book to gain some insight into this profession. Unfortunately I had to close it before I had read half as it is so obviously propaganda. This man wants to hurt an entire profession. Next time he writes, he should try to hide his personal feelings a bit better so as to appear a bit more unbiased.

I need to strongly tell everyone chiropractic is a science with proved treatment result. I was a chiropractic patient before with chronic low back pain caused by sciatica. My doctor-chiropractor helped me to relieved my pain and treated me right. Now my pain is gone. Who said chiropractic not work ? All kind of scientific chiropractic jounals are available. Those treatment had been proved for treating low back pain. It is a scientific fact ! Chiropractic is a science with philosophy, just same as conventional Medicine. I am very happy after chiropractic treatment. GOOD DOCTOR OF CHIROPRACTIC !

A very silly book, obvious propaganda, Manger certainly has an agenda. I'm very aware that medicine has a dismal record when it comes to back problems (I know..I'm an Internist). I've referred many to chiropractors and have received marvelous feedback. Pain which had been present for years had resolved in a relatively short time. This is after the patient (or insurance) spent countless thousands on PT, MRI's, Cat Scans etc. If this book keeps potential patients away from a very probable method to relieve symptoms, then Manger is "Doing Harm" Isn't the patients welfare the primary concern? Not with Manger, and his buddies..especially Barrett and Hamola. Lastly..a suggestion to these "quackwatch" people: Learn to write intellegently, the public are not fools!.

The audio book discusses companies which are successful at using a particular analysis procedure but barely touches on management itself. More of an 'infomercial' as it lacks quality content.
