Mitchell Books

It's easy to understand and they give good simple examples to show the concept in the chapter. There are also exercises at the end of every chapter -- so you can practice.

Without question this is the best introductory journalism textbook on the market. I have used it in my classes for several years. The chapters are short but informative, and the exercises realistic. Primarily focussed on print, the discussion of broadcast journalism is sounder than that found in many books dedictaed to that subject.

As an internist who sees innumberable diabetics on a daily basis, I used this book to help my PA and I organize individualized diabetes classes for the diabetics in my practice. The book is a great guide for diabetics and is easy to read and understand. I think every diabetic should have one at home.

This is a very attractively presented book on noodle recipes from a variety of regions. That's a big plus. I was originally looking for an Asian cookbook with noodle recipes, only to find that most included recipes for deep fried dishes that I tend to avoid, with only a few noodle recipes. Then I found this, and it offers variations on dishes from Thailand, China, Japan, India, Italy, and other regions.

Note that word "variations." Mitchell has simplified these recipes, and in some cases, has done some bold cross-breeding (adding balsamic vinegar to an Asian noodle dish, for instance). This will cause the "authenticity-minded" to cringe. Let them cringe, I say... these recipes are not only delicious, but almost embarassingly simple to prepare. That's a VERY BIG plus for many of us, who would rather make supper quickly, and have more time to play with the kids, write in our journals, or read "Harry Potter." Most of these recipes involve only whisking a few ingredients in a bowl, steaming the noodles, and then mixing in the sauce. The result? Very tasty, very attractive, and very diverse noodle entrees to please the palette. True to the title, they can all be made in 15 minutes or less. You don't need a whole lot of exotic ingredients either -- most of the more esoteric ones can be easily found in a large grocery store or in an Asian specialty food store.

I highly recommend this book to single people who want tasty meals but don't want to commit a whole lot of time to cooking for one, and on the other side of the spectrum -- busy parents who don't mind a mild snub to traditionalism if it means faster meals that are nevertheless scrumptious. Happy noodle cooking!

Business leaders face ever-increasing demands, because we only have so much time, capital, and staff. Also, the competition gets tougher as we encounter daily changes and challenges in business and in the marketplace. Some of us are still dizzy because we had to give up our beloved IBM Selectric and learn to use the typewriter keyboard in a revolutionary new way.

I am going to write this paper for my Ph.D Program with a major:"Exponential Business Success" Under the kind guidence of my best Guru-DON MITCHELL. Who is the guide for this great major at Rushmore University. All these three papers: 2000percent solutions, Breakthrough Business Success, and Ultimate Competitive Advantage, enabled me to produce 2000 percent solutions under his kind guidence. This book would enable me to produce 400 times the benefits to our comapny and customers and all the stakeholders. I am very fortunate to be his student, and the whole world too; who has been blessed by the Almighty GOD, with a ocean of knowledge for all the creatures of GOD to be benefited to have plenty of prosperity by his business models, in turn would generate plenty of employment, remove poverty, enable us to work: with out stress(As we know srtess is causing great concern to the health of all human beings and in turn sufferings), shorter hours, peaceful life with our family, children, all the loved one's and society at large.

This is the first book that really concentrates on the subject matter. Not only does Lesley give you information on the factory but she also gives wonderful accounts of the different designers and artists. It's not so much a picture book as it is a helpful and informative reference that we need more of. So if your looking to education yourself on the many glass artists, companies, and designers this is one book I would highly recommend.

I love this book. The photos are gorgeous! A great compilation of textile designs.

Very informative, lots of behind the scenes info on how the effects were done. Entertaining historical comments from Derek. A must for any Gerry Anderson fan.

Before buying this book, I had a very hard time trying to learn how to play the trumpet. After just a few short days with this book, I could already play five full songs! If you would like to learn how to be an expert on playing the trumpet, I would definitly recomend purchasing this book. It was the best investment that I have ever made.

This is the most recent (2005) guide to grant-winning that I have found, and has the added advantage of being offered within the context of Bioneers 2007 in the exhibits hall. It has not been noticed or reviewed before because it appears to be a self-published book, and ends with a pitch from the author who outlines his fees for helping identify prospective sources of funding, putting the materials together, etc.

Unlike my reviews of the two others books (read the first one before you read this one), here I will not do a summarization, but will compliment the author by stating that while I summarized the other book in my notes, in this book I was inspired to actually note down very specific words and actions that I could take to make our campaign more successful

The other two books are:
"Thank You for Submitting Your Proposal": A Foundation Director Reveals What Happens Next
Essential Principles for Fundraising Success: An Answer Manual for the Everyday Challenges of Rasing Money

A few notes from this worthy book:
* Methodical guidebook, more outline and lists than text
* Helpful focus on achieving high visibility
* Helps stimulate specific ideas unique to your effort, not just methods
* MEET foundations first if you can
* HAVE a business plan
* Discusses how to ask foundations for information about themselves (this may be dated in sense that Internet should provide most of this)
* There is a lot of boiler plate, but I did not take that as a negative
* Useful lists of foundations organized by state, and of top wealthy individuals
* End with consulting options and fees which struck me as quite reasonable for an organization with its first angel, completely unaffordable by a start-up with no funding at all
* No jacket blurbs, very plain, evidently a self-published book.

I recommend this book for purchase and reading.
