Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual: (PDM) 12 reviews
Alliance of Psychoanalytic Organizations
Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual, 2006
A magnificent compendium
I found this manual a useful resource for the evaluation and treatment of our consultants.
It's also an invaluable aid for teaching psychotherapy.
As it presents personality traits as a continuum, with emphasis in healthy functional patterns and healthy personality, the comprehension of psychopatology results a dynamic process, not a cold list of symtoms.

Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About 73 reviews
Kevin Trudeau
Alliance Publishing, 2007
Can't believe the negative reviews
I am halfway through the book as I write this. There is not really a single point of Kevin's that I disagree with thus far. Of course, I have always been into health so everything he says rings true with what I have learned over many years - and practice for myself .
The strength of this book is not so much new ideas, rather it's his astute assembling of healthful ideas from many sources into ...

Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About 2350 reviews
Kevin Trudeau
Alliance Publishing, 2005
There is some good advice but I don't know what to think of Kevin Trudeau
First, about Kevin Trudeau, I believe with his history of deception and fraud its hard to believe good things about him even if in the book he says that he has changed. I am more inclined to think that he is still trying to scam people. This book makes very bold claims that it has the cures for virtually 100% of all diseases but yet there only a short list of diseases and the cures and they ...

It has been over three decades since humans and Slugs (pseudocephalopods) have been at war while slowly earth is learning more about the universe and the blobs are located on the Outworlds; brought there many millennia ago by the slugs as slaves to mine Covite, which powers their C Drive ships. Mankind alos has the technology, which has made the hostilities less one sided.

The National Alliance For Youth Sports
For Dummies, 2007
Great Drills & Sound Advise
I have been coaching younger children for 4 years, and I wanted to get some new drills that I could use during practices. This book has a really good outline of offense, defense, rebounding and practice drills. There are also some very good points at the begining of the book on how to deal with parents and other coaches, etc... Overall this book is very good to design a practice plan for coaches ...

A brand new me!
I am very surprised by all those here in search of a magic bullet. Don't you realize there isn't one! I have read Dr. Simeon's original manuscript and I am currently taking HCG that I received from a licensed physician. IT WORKS! I feel great! I have lost 20 lbs in 3 weeks. I've got 3 weeks to go. I would also recommend that those interested purchase the book titled "HCG Weight Loss Cure ...

Captain's Fury (Codex Alera, Book 4)50 reviews
Jim Butcher
Ace Hardcover, 2007
Excellent
Captian's Fury is an excellent continuation of the very good series of books. A difficult book to put down once you start with enough twists to keep you guessing to the end yet not lose you along the way. Already anxious to get the next one.

Paris 1919
A wonderful, well written, comprehensive history of the end of the Great War.More importantly, a great review of the Ottoman Empire and the Middle East, the result of the Paris Peace conference causing perhaps most of the problems facing us today. An extensive looke at Palestine, the Balfour agreement and the existance of Isreal today.

Build It Big: 101 Insider Secrets from Top Direct Selling Experts23 reviews
Direct Selling Womens Alliance (DSWA)
Kaplan Business, 2005
Wonderful inspiration
I was at my first Pampered Chef conference a few years back. An out of state team member had it on hand on was discussing it with our director. Wasn't being nosy, but couldn't help to over hear some of the things they were discussing. The book sounded interesting, I glanced at it for a few, but not long enough to get anything out of it. What I did glance did not have much interest to me at ...

Get More Referrals Now!22 reviews
Bill Cates
McGraw-Hill, 2004
Let somebody else do the selling for you
Referrals now is an excellent book that explains how to obtain more business by asking for referrals. Most friends and existing clients are more than willing to recommend your product or sevices if you just ask for it. Sales people sometimes view asking for referrals as a sign of weakness or problems in the business. This is not true.
If you want to build up a business very quickly without a ...

Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States24 reviews
Trita Parsi
Yale University Press, 2008
Excellent, objective, and very timely book
I'm sure some will criticize and dismiss this book, mainly because it does a very fair and objective job of laying out both the positive and negative outcomes of American, Iranian and Israeli actions and decisions.
If you are either in the camp that believes the US and Israel are doing God's work in fighting those evil Muslim terrorists and can therefore do no wrong, you won't like this book. ...

Black Mass: The True Story of an Unholy Alliance Between the FBI and the Irish Mob 191 reviews
Dick Lehr, Gerard O'neill
Harper Paperbacks, 2001
Frightening account of corruption
Black Mass is an unbelievable account of the illicit relationship between two Irish mobsters from South Boston (Whitey Bulger and Stevie Flemmi) and their FBI handlers (John Connolly and John Morris).
The book begins with background on South Boston and the "us against them" mentality of the residents. As a young boy, John Connolly looked up to and admired Whitey Bulger, a local gangster, ...

One of the best career guides out there
I never thought I would review a career guide, but this one deserves it. As a student, I found this guide to be indispensable. Not only does it thoroughly cover the non-profit sector, but it also offers advice and insights that can be applied to any sector.
Cryer begins by profiling the sector and highlighting future trends. Notable is the observation that salary in the nonprofit sector ...

More Natural Cures Revealed: Previously Censored Brand Name Products That Cure Disease 197 reviews

Alliance Publishing, 2006
I dont care what nobody says but Kevin Trudeau is telling the truth
Since I have tried some of the many things he mentions in this book I have seen a major difference in my health and vitality. It is a disgrace that how the FTC and FDA would post fraudulent comments on the internet stating that he is a scam and dear to address his past (like who have not had a bad past). Don't believe the negative post messages on the site and other internet post message sites ...
