Should be required reading for anyone who engages or works with attorneys. Its primary benefit is not that it makes lawyers look bad but rather it contains a vast amount of wisdom about when to use attorneys and how to use them effectively . Perhaps more importantly it helps to understand how attorneys are are commonly misused.

The author has the experience, wisdom and writing ability to make this a rare combination of highly useful and highly readable. Highly recommended .

This is a fantastic book, and I'm absolutely amazed that it is out of print. McCormack is a lawyer-turned-businessman, who built a business from scratch that placed him on the FORBES 400. So if there's a businessman who knows legal matters enough to help the average businessman, he's it. He gives advice I don't think you'd find anywhere else, and gives it in a very readable and often entertaining form. I can't recommend this book highly enough.

I like cookbooks for children, but it's always wonderful when I find a top-of-the-notch one like this. Inside are recipes that are quick and easy and yummy to eat and share. This book is very kid friendly and mom friendly too. I think what it puts forth is not only teaching the little ones some skills that they will need all through their lives, but it is also a wonderful way to share time with mom or dad, or any other adult that is in their lives. Breaking bread together is always a wonderful way to bound and making it first is just plain extra special. Very nice book, great fun and great learning as well.

This is an excellent little 124 Spiral bound cookbook for Mothers to share and cook with their daughters! Cute names for some of the items! This would make a great gift!!

Really helped prepare for the AP exam. The practice tests are key. They really get you a good feel for the exam. Princeton Review does a great job.

This book will easily get anyone who really understands it a 5 on the exam, especially if you can score well on the practice tests in the back. It's better for review, rather than learning. If you want an AP book that you can learn from, I suggest using 5 Steps to a 5. I never really understood electromagnetic induction or nuclear physics from my textbook, and this book was even worse for that, but 5 Steps to a 5 cleared up all my issues with those topics in about an hour. I think that this book is way better for review, though, mostly because the questions they ask at the end of each chapter are better and help your understanding of the concepts.

Don't be discouraged if you don't score well on the practice tests in the back, because the actual AP exam is much more conceptual and less calculation-based. But if you can do the Princeton Review tests, you'll have no problem with the real one. It's not overly difficult though, so don't let that discourage you from buying it.

Overall, this definitely gets a 5/5 for its explanations and for being so concise and on target regarding information the exam will test you on.

I think we'll have to buy some more copies of this story, my son makes us read it at least 4 - 5 times a week to him. He loves firefighters (and George of course) so this is a perfect fit.

I've noticed some of the newer stories "inspired" by Margaret and H.A. Rey -- this is one of their originals / classics. Timeless and precious are words that come to mind when thinking about the actual story.

So many opportunities to learn / teach within the classic George stories -- I think because some of the pictures, things, stuff in the story are vintage and unfamiliar it encourages the child to inquire more.

We're huge fans -- and if you watch the specials, sometimes they have 4 for price of 3 on [...]

Of course, you should try to support your local bookstore whenever you can!

This is a cute little story perfect for my 2 1/2 yr old for bedtime...he loves it.

We love the plan book and it is very functional but part of my order was shipped first and then when the rest was shipped it was lost. I had to scramble to find the plan book elsewhere.

I have been teaching preschool for many years and used many plan books. This one is by far my favorite. I found it at Lakeshore last year but when I went back to buy it again it wasn't there. However, Amazon had it!
This book has some great features including large pages, a calendar, sub. pages, daily schedule, student information, and much more. It is so complete you can't help but be organized!
A must buy for any preschool teacher.

My friend was delighted with this gift, and tells me it is the most entertaining way to learn Spanish.

The only way these stories could be better is if Hayes could tell them to you personally. All children, but especially those from the American southwest, will appreciate having a collection of these oft-told tales. Get ready to laugh about the day it snowed tortillas and get shivers when the wind's moans down by the ditch sound like those of a woman.

You have to have these books, they are great for all ago groups and so helpful!!!

The book begins with a day-by-day list of all the celebrations throughout the month (not only the famous ones but others as well...do you know when chewing gum was first patented?), and then a reproducible calendar for the classroom with clip art of symbols to place on the calendar.

December idea book contains reproducibles for the following topics: December Activities (including a word search, a letter to Santa, board game, shapebook, trivia, snowman math, lined paper, Math Elf wheel, among others), "For Goodness Sake" (this section contains awards, pencil toppers, shaped bookmarks, certificates, puppets, etc), Holiday Crafts (lots of Christmas paper ornaments to make, cards, puppets, shapebooks), Merry Christmas Many Ways (information, activities, crafts and lots of beautiful reproducibles to celebrate Christmas according to worldwide traditions, like the Mexican Posadas, the Italian Befana, the Swedish Santa Lucia Day, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and much more),

This book contains lots of reproducible international children that can be used for multicultural bulletin boards. It contains pictures of boys and girls from: Africa, Israel, Sweden, Holland, Italy and Mexico. And for every topic, you will find not only lots of creative activities but also cultural information to support the learning.

Great resources for the elementary teacher!

I would recommend is from the 3rd 2002 design and emotion conferance. It may be 5 years old, but the book contains papers all based on emotional design. Split into subsections, which are

Generative tools,
Evauative Tools,
Emotive Effects of Visual Properties,
Emotive Effects of the Other Senses,
From Design to Emotion,
Affective Usabilty,
Attachment,
Product Character,
Theoretical and Ethical issues,
and
Emotion in Design.

There is a paper for just about everthing, and there are only 4 - 5 pages long.

she sure is one crazy gal.
she knos her beautiful people.

This book is definitely a strong addition to the body of knowledge for Reliability Professionals and for any Company that wants to improve the business competitiveness by improving the product reliability.

The book clearly provides the correct focus on the customer, but it also elaborates on the fact that one customer is the corporate business enterprise.

The book shows the optimum sequence of DfR activities in the development phases. This book also has impressive details for the specific DfR elements. It is also an excellent resource for guidance into specific details.

I like the balance of graphics with text and the graphics added excellent additional understanding.

This is an outstanding Industry leader that has documented the implemented practice in this book.

I did not attempt to verify every mathematical formula.

As one of the authors/editors of this book, let me describe the valuable technical content. First, let me impress upon you that this is a rare practical work in reliability written by members of a highly technical company that apply reliability science every day to products. Thus, academics are stressed only as a tool. Therefore, this book has something for everyone. It starts off with a management perspective on how to organize a reliability program. Chapter 1 - 5 overview a unique stage-gate approach to growing reliability. What tools and building blocks are needed from a management perspective to be world-class. What tests to perform when is also key. This approach assures optimum reliability grow in a commercial atmosphere of on-time reliable product deliveries. The book then evolves technically providing essential engineering topics. Chapter 6 describes key information for performing process reliability studies. Chapter 7, is without question a compact chapter on failure analysis that describes each analysis tool including SEM, SAM, EDS, FTIR, FIB, SIMS, etc. The numerous physics of failure analysis examples in diffusion, corrosion, intermetallics, ESD etc are illustrated with detailed FA images. Then Chapter 8 provides what you need to know for reliability statistics. It covers basic definitions for failure rate, CDF, PDF, the main distributions used (Weibull, lognormal, Exponential, Normal). A well-organized chapter presenting key essential reliability statistics needed in industry. Chapter 9 details accelerated testing, the primary historical equations governing temperature, temperature-humidity, vibration and temperature cycle/shock, and electromigration. It provides common sense guidelines for assessing overstressing. How to use these equations for test planning. Advance topics including Step-stress and how to describe life distributions as a function of stress. Chapter 10 on Accelerated Reliability Growth is fairly unique. What tests do you perform and when, using stage-gate and recent accelerated reliability growth mathematics for planning. Growth can be obtained and assessed in a timely manner. Chapter 11 provides the essential for system reliability. Series, parallel, and n of k subsystems as well as predicting reliability using both Bellcore, and 217 methods are addressed. Chapter 12 is an excellent overview of FMEA. Chapter 13 teaches methods for evaluating product risk and conducting risk program management. Lastly, Chapter 14 is an advanced topic, thermodynamic reliability engineering. No other book teaches thermodynamics and how the 1st and 2nd laws are fundamental to the science for Physics-of-Failure. In no other book can a reader find derivations for accelerated testing time compression expressions in fatigue, temperature-humidity, Miner's rule, and diffusion. Additionally, an advanced Arrhenius kinetic topics on logarithmic-in-time aging are provided. This topic as a seminar received the highest ratings at the 2001 RAMS conference.
