I bought this book because it was required reading for my second year statistics course (Michael Smithson is actually my stats lecturer at the moment!) but I was certainly not disappointed. The title "Statistics with Confidence" is true to its name - I am SO much better and more confidence with statistics now then I was at the beginning of the year and I am actually enjoying it!!!

His explanations are brilliant and easy to follow and understand and his examples and practice questions are never few, so there's always more to keep you busy and entertained!

His book also comes with a CD-Rom which incldues very easy to use programs and examples to help you practice.

Buy this book if you are looking for a great and easy to understand overview of Psychology related Statistics (or even statistics in general) as either a supplement to your current texts or alone - and at such a good price, you'd be mad not to!

Any individual expressing interest in the study of the media, be it a professor or a student, MUST read this book. Zelizer's analysis of the way in which media is viewed is not only so accurately examined but also incredibly thought provoking.

this book is very good I am in fact a wizard which is studying witchcraft so I need to know what my power on my birthchart is.

This audio book is a great orientation to dharma by a modern-day rinpoche whose innovation is his ability to bridge the world of tibetan buddhism with western modernity. In clear English, Rinpoche Tsem Tulku explains the role of protector deities and shares practical insight on tibetan buddhism. His instruction appears to transcend the limitations of religious confinement by providing wisdom that crosses different cultures. This audio book should be valuable for persons interested in gaining a deeper understanding about a unique and rapidly growing form of tibetan buddhism. I truly enjoyed this work and found it to be genuinely inspirational. I have happily recommended and shared this work with all my friends.

If you're a fan of soap operas, and communication about them on the internet, this is the BOOK for you! Ms. Baym's book is filled with insightful and thought-provoking information on a group of individuals in a newsgroup on the internet who all came together to discuss the good and bad of their favorite soap opera(s). And along the way, found a community of friends they never thought possible. In her long and dedicated research, Ms. Baym delves into the communication she discovered, both verbal and nonverbal of a group of people, many women, but also men, and discovers much more about them than what appears on the surface. Her conclusions are quite intriguing! She finds the common bonds between them and shows how they are not only gifted and talented individuals, but how they are able to personify themselves through they're words, acts and deeds. She also talks at length about the changes over the years and gives factual evidence as the internet became larger. The growth is written into her story. It is a fun-filled odyssey into one group of people brought together with one common bond from all walks of life, from locations all over the world and it is quite a fascinating journey. Don't waste any time - get this book!

Brava Nancy Baym!

"The Venture Project Manager" is by Dennis Cohen. Cohen is a consultant with the Strategic Management Group. He assists leaders in implementing strategy into action.

Throughout the lecture, he emphasizes the importance of maximizing shareholder's wealth. Often that has a negative connotation, but Cohen explains that without the shareholders, there would be no projects. Without projects, there would be no project leaders. He explains and describes the importance of economic value added. He explains that project managers must view their work within the scope of the entire business and market place.

Cohen explains that project managers do not view their project in the "long haul". They finish their project, and they pass the implementation to other departments. Venture project managers see the project through the life cycle. Cohen discusses how each project should be seen as an investment; therefore, it should be in align with the company's vision and mission.

"Venture Project Manager" was a pleasure to listen to. Make your commute more worthwhile by listening to "Venture Project Manager".

I was looking for a book that would energize journalism students and would help them to see in journalism the potential for making a contribution to positive social change. This book was terrific in the classroom for those purposes. The students loved the narrative writing style and the book opened great questions on the role of advocacy in relation to social movements and the institutions of journalism. A truly important work as we in journalism education look for ways to encourage our students to consider alternatives to corporate-owned media!
