Unexpectedly Touching
I found myself unexpectedly touched by this autobiography. Having read it, I consider Bernie Brillstein a friend. With no self-praise, Brillstein shows himself to be a man of decency, of compassion, of empathy. He began in his profession as an agent at William Morris, dreaming of representing mid-Century comics such as Jackie Gleason and Jackie Gale. When he left William Morris, he became a ...

Really Can't Understand The Complainers Here!
I surfed with Dora in '58-'62. No, let me say, I was in the water at the same time on dozens and dozens of mornings and afternoons, but NEVER SURFED with Dora. Nobody surfed WITH Dora. He was a bullying competitor, bold adventurer, pirate, pioneer, and a loner. He was in his own dream and happily so. Now then, for those who require a more intimate picture of the athlete, watch films for insight ...

Harper Paperbacks, 2004

An amazing man; an incredible story, a must read!!
Louis Zamperini was an amazing man, and his life story is so well written I have read it 3 times myself, recommended this book to many and sent it as gifts. I have never heard anything but high praise for the book. I read with disappointment the negative review by Belmonte who had to read it for a history class; my hat goes off to the teacher who recommended it. It made me sad that students of ...

Gotham, 2005

Invaluable
This book is clear-headed, chock full of invaluable tell-it-like-it-is insights, humorous or serious when it needs to be. If you want coddling go elsewhere. If you want to hear the truth about what it takes to get ahead in business and in life -- manners, smarts, listen to your own instincts, think in the long term -- you'll have to agree that the little stuff DOES matter most, and Brillstein's ...

Dell, 1991

Incredibly Accurate
I was given this book years ago, and found it to be enormously entertaining and fun to read. Being named Bob, I also found it's desciption of the "normal" Bob to be incredibly accurate. I have bought additional copies over the years to give to friends and employees also named Bob. Print some more!!

I'd rate this one 15 stars if I could!

ASP: Active Server Pages

Andrew M. Fedorchek, David K. Rensin

Wiley Publishing, 1997

Still the best intro to ASP for programmers
The authors' succinct yet clear style allows them to explain ASP, JSCRIPT, and VBSCRIPT in less than 300 pages. After two years in print, this text remains the best for bringing experienced programmers to a productive level in ASP. Not a word is wasted, yet the text is entertaining. It is complete, providing exactly what is needed regarding the web server, ASP itself, and COM(ActiveX) ...

Confessions Of a Late Night Talk Show Host: A Book's Book
I thought Larry Sanders "Confessions of a Late Night Talk Show Host" was just a terrific work. I've read a number of books and neither of them were even close to being as good as this one. Reading Larry's life story was like getting to know him all over again and it was very exciting to learn that Larry has so much in common with the common man. It's so easy to relate to Larry on so many ...
