Review:This is definitely worth reading. I think many companies are beginning to realize the value of their employees and treat them as assets rather than slaves. I remember working for a large pharmaceutical company and we were "told" to increase our frequency of calls to the medical providers from once every 3 weeks to once every 2 weeks and that they were hiring another rep to be in the opposite rotation such that the providers would be called on every week. It TOTALLY BACKFIRED. We reps tried t... Read more
Review:While I cannot say that anybody reading this should have more kids just out of the guilt this book might give you, it is an important message about the sad effects of low birthrates. Mark Steyn has a quick wit and funny tone that is clearly not politically correct (good for him). Anybody who enjoys a good laugh or is concerned about terrorism should read this. Read more
Review:Looking around America today, it's hard to understand what it was like to be homosexual just a few decades ago. Not to say that it's easy today, but once upon a time, one's very existence was a crime. Cleve Jones grew up in that environment, bullied and tormented even before he knew why. He escaped to San Francisco, where he discovered a world that revolved around people like himself. Driven by the emergence of a man named Harvey Milk, Jones entered the political and social fray, becoming one of... Read more
Review:Wonderful Book. I learned so much. Very brilliant and brave author who has done his homework. He appears to be a very kind and thoughtful person who is willing to look deeply at all sides of an issue. This should be required reading in every secondary school. Read more
Review:I trust enough has been written about this book's premise by others. I found it well written and compelling if a bit long and repetitive. I would have liked to see this much more condensed, though I understand why the authors would want to add every stick of evidence they could to make their cyclical view of history as convincing as possible. As for its prophecy that the Fourth Turning is coming around soon, the 2016 Presidential election certainly adds strength to the argument. We will know soo... Read more
Review:This book is an amazing read. No matter your opinion, political leaning, or attitude toward the Iraq war, this book gives a great perspective, asking the difficult questions, and talking about the difficult realities. Really great to hear from a woman - removed from American military and politics - on the ground in Iraq. I would recommend this book to anyone. Read more
Review:What a wonderful historical storyteller! Scott Miller has "nailed" the historical non-fiction to create a compelling, edge of your seat real life suspense/drama. If you've ever desired to journey back in time to the gilded age and capture the "feel" of the era and discover what was really going on, this is the book. No glossing over of details either. There are times the finite details are appropriately shared. Your are truly "in the seat" of President McKinley, the anarchists (including Czolgo... Read more
Review:This book is tremendous! Great reading for anyone who can be objective about re-examining the dangerous path America has been led down the last fifty years. Historically accurate and brilliantly articulated by a man who is the only original thinker on the U.S. political landscape. This is one is a winner!! Read more
Review:This book provides an in-depth view into the intricacies and challenges of complex tort litigation. It is also a classic David and Goliath story, but this time Goliath wins. It does drag somewhat at times. Read more
Review:Have the Republicans shot themselves in the proverbial foot? Will they ever separate truth from fiction, Church from State, form from content, politics as usual from doing what's good for the nation? It may be to late. If the Republicans don't loose the lunatic fringe who have ambushed the party, we may see the end of the two party system in our lifetime. Read more
