Professor Stephen Bainbridge's "Complete Guide to Sarbanes-Oxley" is a well-written, well-organized overview of a very complicated, very intrusive piece of federal legislation. It's as light as possible on the legal-ese, but heavy on the analysis and practical information.

There are two audiences for this important guidebook. First, this is a useful overview for attorneys who need to be "familiar" with Sarbanes Oxley and how this law may affect anyone with a general commercial litigation law practice, or who may represent corporate officers in matters not directly related to corporate governance. This is not meant to be the definitive, comprehensive treatise for big-firm securities lawyers. The prose would need to be too dense to be meaningful for us "dabblers" in corporate law who may occasionally represent a corporate officer.

Second, this is a useful overview for corporate officers, corporate counsel, and accountants. It would serve the same purpose as a traveler's phrase book, allowing you to "speak the language" of securities lawyers and corporate auditors in the event that a "situation" arises. I would even recommend that corporate lawyers, as an act of preventive maintenance, stock a supply of this book to pass out to their clients who are officers of publicly-traded corporations or high-profile non-profits.

If either of these is you, you want this handly summary on your bookshelf.

This book is a wonderful tool. Not just a reference, full of working knowledge a small business owner should have before launching a new business (very good for startups). Also, an excellent read if your business has grown to the point where you are considering leaving a regular paycheck to manage and grow your business. Detailed but not overwhelming, insightful without excepting a great deal of prior knowledge about business law. Just a great book.

Compiled and edited by Marco A. Janssen (Associate Research Scientist, Center for the Study of Institutions, Population, and Environmental Change, Indian University - Bloomington), Complexity And Ecosystem Management: The Theory and Practice Of Multi-Agent Systems is a scholarly, college-level collection of learned articles and essays from an extensive roster of experts focusing on a "multi-agent" approach to the complex field of ecosystem management. Theory, application, graphical and mathematical models fill the pages of this solid, scientific, scholarly resource which is a very highly recommended, core addition to professional, governmental, and academic Environmental Studies reference collections.

To most lawyers and law firm administrators, selecting and implementing a computerized case management system is an intimidating and sometimes overwhelming task. Andy Adkins, the author of this book, has the technical expertise and writing ability to guide non-experts through the process with common sense--and a healthy dose of humor. He keeps the techno-babble to a minimum while educating the reader enough to understand how case management works and interacts with what is actually happening in a real law office. By the time the final page is turned, the reader will be surprised at how much has been learned and how much confidence gained. Non-experts tossed into the computer world rarely read a technical book completely through. This valuable handbook is the exception.

I have found Conservation and Environmentalism to be extremely informative and interesting, it is well written. I have used it for reference in research and for my own interests, as well. I came online today to purchase my own personal copy.

The Conservation Atlas of Tropical Forests: the Americas is the best resource there is for researching and understanding the present state of tropical forests throughout the Americas as well as the historical and projected concerns for the forests. The atlas provides beautifully colored, detailed maps of various forests, effects and extent of deforestation, accounts of active as well as proposed conservation efforts. It is wonderfully insightful and meticulously well-edited. Nothing I have read in the past can compare.
