In my opinion, this is one of the best books that I have read about ancient humankind in two decades. Dr. Harari uses plain language to explain complex issues and relationships -- A genuine pleasure to read this book. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Harari, and listening to a one and a half hour discussion of Sapiens -- He talks as superbly as he writes.

Paul Mano does a great job with presenting software life cycle development for security in a way that doesn't leave you wishing you had more information.  It is all relative and up to date.  Plus, his writing skills are impeccable, making the information entertaining.  After personally meeting this guy and hearing him speak, I can assure you he is worth reading when it comes to preparing for the CSSLP certification or just to keep as a research guide.

This is a very worthwhile book and although I have not totally finished reading it, mostly due to the copious notes I am taking about putting it into practice, I can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking to make better decisions in business and life. I will post a complete review once I have finished reading and digesting it. It should be required reading in our schools to give students the decision-making skills they will need to be successful in life.

I purchased Dr. Kaz's first edition and use it frequently as a Power Supply Design engineer for space and military designs which require detailed and extensive analyses to prove worst case operation. This book has been a great source of education and reference for me. While I haven't been able to read his latest edition it has about 300 pages of additional information that could only improve my library, education and work.

I have almost all of Dr Kaz's books. I believe this is probably the best book he has written, which says a lot since his other books are also very good and highly recommended.

A really great book from the leading authority on expertise. Some of the material is recycled from previous papers, but it's used in a thoughtful way. Dr. Ericsson is a great author and really breaks down a variety of  super performers in topics from music, to chess to sports to their root cause - dedication and practice with a purpose

I do not recommend many books, however this book is worthy of a lot of praise. The science is intelligent and compelling. As I am a practicing physician, I think Dr Jacoby has put together a brilliant argument for people to read. He perspicaciously outlines why certain pathology takes place, and makes it fascinating for us the reader. Highly recommend!!

I read this excellent book by Mr. Perloff about a year ago via Kindle Unlimited, but I did not write a review for it at that time.

Since that time, the book was suspended from sales due to "quality issues" that are so minor as to be absurd.  These minor issues are still showing on this purchase page, and that is telling.  It is a sneaky way of discouraging people from reading this book with its valuable information.  Therefore, I purchased the Kindle edition so I can own it - just in case Amazon decides to remove it again.

Mr. Perloff is an excellent author and speaker.  His research is top-notch and he tells the inconvenient truth.  He doesn't preach, but encourages people to know the truth and make up their own minds.  He also has a wonderful sense of humor.

Thank you, Mr. Perloff, for all the work you do, and for causing my eyes to be opened about many things!

Dave Bland is an excellent man first of all.  I had him in a Doctorate Level class on Wisdom Literature.  His understanding of these books is one of the deepest that I have ever experienced.  He does a great job of putting the wisdom literature into context within a theological framework.  The book is readable, helpful, and educational.  A great commentary by a great man.

In this book. Dr. Bill Dean describes through the eyes of a western medical doctor how to manage IC and it's associated conditions with Ayurveda.  I recommend it for anyone who is ready to make life changes so they can feel better. I also recommend it for people who are interested in understanding Western Medicine theory and Ayurvedic theory as they both approach a single condition. There is a lot that can be learned from this book that can be extrapolated into other areas of disease management.  It is clear that Dr. Bill knows his material and has experienced frustrations of treatment failure as well as treatment successes. He brings to his readers much experience, wisdom and knowledge in this book.

This book is very interesting and very helpful.
If you are patient enough you can receive a lot of information about what can you do wnen you are in troubles. Dr. Budwig was a very smart scientist and very dedicated. What people write on Internet about her researches is not always the truth. It is much better to read this book and another her books.

Dear Reader

As a business owner who has previously worked for multinational
Corporations and public bodies, I find this book is very relevant to
Me and my business and is a lot more than an academic discourse.  It
goes to the heart of what I am trying to create which is a robust,
long term sustainable business.  I believe many us of have similar
goals whether in big or small business or public office.

The book is relevant at both the academic and practical level. It
challenges current economic and management theory in a constructive
and persuasive manner. The book is about advancement rather than
tearing down.

This book combines academic and intellectual rigour with what the less
academic would call basic common sense. The book considers the human
condition and basic economic and business theory and more.

The book is not about quick fixes. In places it is not an easy read.
Do not be put off please persevere. It will be worth it.

The book is in the form of dialogue with Adam Smith, one of the
founding fathers of economic and business theory. Adam Smith is
important because much of current economic policy and management
theory is developed from his writings produced in the 18th century.
The book carefully challenges some of his basic notions and
assumptions. It examines what rings true today and what does not, and
where Adam Smith might not have been right in the first place.

The ideas that the book explores and develops are valid at multiple
levels. Whether you are a senior business leader, politician, college
Professor or executive at the coal face of industry, commerce or
public service, you will find the book provides the reasons, language
and vocabulary to argue that we need to think and operate differently.

It also goes beyond the reasons for change but actually explores and
points you to the necessary changes we need to make in both our
businesses and in public policy.

I commend this book, not only to opinion formers and policy makers but
to the widest readership possible.

As someone working in the industry, this is a tremendously relevant book.  Ashutosh and Rodger open up the reader's eye to what is possible when it comes to fundraising in the university setting - although this contents can be used for any fundraising organization.

The thing that I admire most about this book is the lighthearted nature of it while also getting as technical as needed to achieve significant business goals.  You will find humor and motivation sprinkled throughout the book, along with signs that these two know how to have a good time.  In short, this is not a dry textbook that will feel like a chore to read.

In fact, the authors have found the perfect mix of readable definitions, easy to follow code, diagrams that supplement the main ideas, and a very logical flow that helps connect the dots.

The book makes numerous, very convincing arguments, supported with dozens of examples, to show that power is harder to maintain and wield than ever before. It gives me hope for the future. The author is very well read and provides the historical perspective needed to see that, while there are still great concentrations of power and wealth, they are much easier to learn about, sanction, threaten, or tear down, than ever before.
I read this because I heard Robert Kiyosaki interviewed by Alex Jones, Kiyosaki highly recommended this book, so I got it from the library. It's a small book but densely packed with information. I think the author did a great job supporting his thesis.

As wh@ I suppose people would call a specialist in this subject ; I was DELIGHTED by thins book. Bill Dembski manages to put across his arguments without endless technical jargon but managed to give us the detail that we need to understand him. A superb book written by one of the best brains around these days. Not to be missed if you are interested in the subject and are prepared to learn the facts.

This is an excellent book that will give you an incredible set of tools, tests and certainly will give you new ways to look at your work.  Dr. Nigrini's writing style is very open, accessible, and often humorous.  Passion and drive for the subject come through in every page of this book.  The amount of detail and background, practical applications, and interpretations make the book a complete package on the subject. I recently had the opportunity to spend the day in class with Dr. Nigrini and cannot tell you how impressed I was with his level of detail for this subject.  If you ever have the chance to take a class from Dr. Nigrini do not hesitate, you will be better for it.
