I'm an independent information specialist with several ad agency clients. When I picked up this book, I'd been tearing my hair out over yet another "need it yesterday" assignment. As I read through the interviews in this book, I felt like I was chatting with old friends. It was good to know the challenges I faced were not unique, and I enjoyed reading about how other information pros handled them. I picked up some great ideas.

This book is an excellent introduction for researchers in the ad business, but I'd also recommend it for seasoned professionals. Each professional interviewed for this book had a different area of specialization, and since we can't specialize in everything, the advice and resources that these individuals provide may be helpful even to those who've been in the business for a long time.

Others books have focused on research pros who work in various fields; Super Searchers On Madison Avenue tackles those who function in the advertising and marketing world, using interviews with researchers who find and analyze information for fueling new product launches and ad campaigns. Especially intriguing are case histories showing how successful researchers made the change from traditional careers to being an online researcher.

Super Searchers On Mergers & Acquisitions reveals the online search services and tools used by leading researchers, who regularly use the Internet to uncover critical details on companies and industries. The focus on mergers and acquisitions and how to acquire the details about growth-oriented companies will please any business owner, broker, appraiser or business buyer.

Jan Tudor is simply the best guide avaliable for climbing the summit of M&A research on-line or off. A professional researcher's professional her stellar reputation in the industry has insured a host of illustrative interviews, techniques, and fine honed observations from across the M&A landscape.

A disclaimer at the beginning of Taxes for Online Sellers: A How-To Guide for Individuals on Federal Tax for Internet Sales warns that if legal advice is required, the competent professional help should be sought. That being said, Taxes for Online Sellers is an excellently researched guide to how American tax laws work with regard to online sales, whether or not one is considered a business, which income must be reported, what records of online sales are necessary to keep, how to keep track of one's income, inventory, and expenses, taking depreciation into account, specific big-ticket sale items such as business equipment and vehicles, and much more. An extensive appendix listing a wide assortment of reproducible tax forms, a glossary, and an index round out this enthusiastically recommended primer for anyone considering or engaging in online sales on amazon, ebay, or their own website.

Taxes for Online Sellers was written as a small business tax guide, especially for the online seller. It covered all my questions I had about my internet income. It is easy to read and even includes copies of the tax forms in the back of the book for reference. It gave me specific, line by line, instructions for filling out my tax forms. It explained how to handle inventories and what I buy at yard sales and flea markets. There's a website for updates to the book, so you don't have to buy a new version every year to find the new tax laws. This is definitely a keeper and well worth the price.

This book is laid out very well. It is easy to skip to the areas that you need to focus your study time on and includes an 80 practice exam and pracitce questions through out the book. The all the answers are given and justifications for the practice problems are provided as well. There are my pictures and examples to help explain concepts and also study and test taking tips.

From a price stand-point: I had already heard how good this book was, but I feel that even though there were cheaper study guides out there that this was a good investment.

If you are a secondary math teacher preparing to take the cerfication test this the book for you. Each competency of the Texas state test is well covered and easily understood. This a great buy for anyone wanting to further their career.

This author is AMAZING!! I have learned so much from his books. I would reccomend this book to anyone in this field!

While other books on Online Counseling are:

1) Too many years dated (check the publication dates!)
2) Bogged down with computer science theory that has little to do with counseling practice
3) Provide more questions than answers, and leave the reader more confused than he/she stared

This Clinical Training Guide actually prepares the reader to begin his or her own Telephone Counseling and Online Counseling practice.

The work is content rich (content loaded actually!), but at the same time readable; and even a bit entertaining.

When you purchase this work the author will send you an electronic copy (PDF) usually within a few hours of purchase. And if you're not happy with the content provided, the author backs his materials up with a 60 day money back guarantee! So you have nothing to lose--and you won't be disappointed with this resource!

I really enjoyed this work by a local Seattle author. Very engaging, lots of great twists and turns. It captured well the changing flavor of the Northwest, revealing a seedy underbelly swelling under the stormy skies. Seldom do I read a book cover to cover in these busy times...but this one had me going to the end.

After being released from prison, ex-con, Booney Dugan, wants to make a fresh start. Unfortunately his best friend has other ideas. When the beautiful, Colleen McCarver, enters his life and presents Booney with a plan to make four million dollars for their early retirement, things quickly get complicated. Throw in a botched robbery and a kidnapping and this thrilling novel turns breathtaking.

The author creates clear, crisp dialog, which enhances the story's furious pace, especially in the later chapters. Roach creates dialog as skillfully as Faulkner does in his story, "The Bear." The author has a knack for capturing mood that will remind a reader of Tawni O'Dell's best seller, "Back Roads." An English teacher might be put off by his use of punctuation and sentence structure, but it's a great vehicle for moving the plot along
quickly without wasting words. The prose is incisive and very persuasive.Each character is consistent in their actions, speech, dress and mannerisms, and has a purpose for being "on stage." The plot is solidly structured and well thought out with a minimum of irrelevant material.

This novel deserves a large audience and should be placed at the top of a readers list of "must reads." If you like an action-packed story with Elmore Leonard type characters, don't miss this one. Considering my propensity for being a critical reviewer, I have to give, "Think Fast" a well-deserved five star rating.

Starting on the Canadian and U.S. West coast the author takes the reader on a thrilling voyage to a large number of fascinating places and places not so good. The cruel side of International Business and human greed is exposed in all its potential in a spectacular story, starting from events most likely to have occured. The author displays an impressive knowledge in many interesting subjects and areas which offers the reader a moment of pleasant reading and widens the horizons.

It's an excellent book! Especially for you guys who like The Saint and James Bond type of books.

It has really interesting characters, everything from a Swedish Trade Commissioner to a high ranking Nazi. It must be based on real, living, and breathing people?

The scenerys are beautifully described, and so is all the good food that they eat. It is so well described that it makes you so physically hungry, that you just want to jump in and join them . It is a must read!

I am currently reading the second part of the trilogy, and it is as good, maybe even better than The Trade Commissioner.

In short, buy it!!!

This great expose of the kookiness out there... er, in there, makes for fascinating sociological reading, but most of all, it's amusing! Never knew that there were so many weird conspiracy theories outside the X-files...!

This brilliantly writen book is a must-have for everyone . . . Karl Mamer paints a vivid picture of how kooks and crazies use the web to spread their word. Rich in detail and masterfully created, after reading "The Truth Is In Here", you'll never surf the same way again...
