The authors, James Womack and Daniel Jones, provide lots of examples to illustrate their basic points.

Steven Pinker

Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2007

A Thorough and Entertaining Introduction to Language
As someone who has had a fascination about languages, this book was the perfect choice for my undergraduate neuroscience class--it's objective is to elucidate how the mind creates language. The prose is extremely well-written and complex ideas clearly explained.

Daniel C. Esty, Andrew S. Winston

Yale University Press, 2006

Green to Gold
Esty and Winston seem to be a perfect duo to write this book. Together they have a very strong and complementing background, ranging from experiences in academics and government to green and strategy consulting. The result is a book that has the right balance of theory and practice. While many books on green business only focus on the bright side, Esty & Winston are more realistic. They admit ...

W. Chan Kim, Renée Mauborgne

Harvard Business School Press, 2005

Strategy will always include opportunity and risk
Strategy: 1. In blue oceans, competition is irrelevant because the rules of the game are waiting to be set. Companies need to go beyond competing. To seize new profit and growth opportunities, they also need to create blue oceans. 2. Put the clock forward 20 to 50 years and ask yourself how many unknown industries will exist. Surprisingly, many of the unknown industries will exist. 3. ...
  
  











  



  
Soul Visioning: Clear the Past, Create Your Future6 reviews
Susan Wisehart

Llewellyn Publications, 2008

What Does Your Soul Want for You?
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. If you saw my copy, you'd laugh at all of the post-it tabs sticking out from the pages. But those tabs are there for a reason--some of them take me to exercises or guided experiences and others take me to a paragraph or phrase that I want to be reminded of when I need insight. What I especially like about the book is that it's really comprehensive. I didn't ...
  
  











  



  
Mars and Venus on a Date: A Guide for Navigating the 5 Stages of Dating to Create a Loving and Lasting ...117 reviews
John Gray

Harper Paperbacks, 1999

Best dating book I've ever read
I hated the book, Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus........... However, this book really seemed right on. Great insight for women on how men think, how men date, when and when not to call and the especially important, "Stage Two: Uncertainty period". Explains why men wait to get involved, etc. If you are baffled about men like I was, this book is worth it's weight in gold.

Julie A Fast, John Preston

Warner Wellness, 2006

Amazing!
This year I ended up in the hospital for severe re-current depression & anxiety- my outpatient psychologist & inpatient therapists all thought there was a mood disorder- but my awful doctor wouldn't hear of it. He put me on a lot of anti-depressants & shoved me out into the world 10 days later. Everyone was pushing me to go back to work, but I didn't feel right. A month later I ended up in ...
  
  











  



  
Sneakiest Uses for Everyday Things: How to Make a Boomerang with a Business Card, Convert a Pencil into a ...3 reviews
Cy Tymony

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2007

Lots of projects and lots of fun
As someone who's never been too adept at science or really enjoyed it all that much, I got my first taste of sincere, scientific satisfaction when I swallowed up Sneakiest Uses. These little projects are so simple, and they work! Now I find I'm curious about the inner-workings of all kinds of things, and I'm just hoping my boyfriend doesn't catch me taking apart the microwave.
  
  











  



  
The Necessary Revolution: How individuals and organizations are working together to create a sustainable ...6 reviews
Peter M. Senge, Bryan Smith, ...

US Green Building Council, 2008

An important contribution to sustainability strategies
This is one of the most interesting and important contributions of 2008 to the vital area of sustainability thinking. MIT's Peter Senge is well known for deep analysis of organizational effectiveness (that can be challenging to read). He applies the same "systems thinking" found in his best-selling book, "The Fifth Discipline", to the multi-dimensional problem of unsustainable industrialization ...
  
  











  



  
Communication Miracles for Couples: Easy and Effective Tools to Create More Love and Less Conflict19 reviews
Jonathan Robinson

Conari Press, 1997

GREAT book. Hands-on, easy, to-the-point relationship rescue.
When I purchased this book, I chose it as an impluse buy in addition to another communications book that I thought would be great. Instead, after reading only a couple of pages of this book, I was floored with how quickly this short book targeted common communication problems with couples, and had easy solutions that you could start implementing right away. We have used the techniques in this ...
  
  











  



  
Creative Visualization: Use the Power of Your Imagination to Create What You Want in Your Life (Gawain, ...100 reviews
Shakti Gawain

New World Library, Nataraj, 2002

My first book
This was the very first book I ever read in the New age/Self help genre when I was just old enough to read more complex books. My mother had a copy of the first edition which I believe was published 25+ years ago. At the time I tried to assimilate the work, but was too young. But I found myself drawn to it and have since read it at least 20 times over my life. It's a timeless classic and its ...
  
  











  



  
Little Felted Animals: Create 16 Irresistible Creatures with Simple Needle-Felting Techniques8 reviews
Marie-Noelle Horvath

Watson-Guptill, 2008

just looking
This is a very interesting little book. I got it because I'm always looking for crafting ideas that I can incorporate into some of my art projects. I mostly just scanned through looking at the pictures and then got caught up in reading how the little figures were made. And I believe I can make these little creatures. The instructions are not too complicated and seem pretty easy to follow. Many of ...
  
  











  



  
The Muvipix.com Guide to Adobe Premiere Elements 7: The tools, and how to use them, to create great videos on ...3 reviews
Steve Grisetti

Steve Grisetti, 2008

Pearls for sale, only 10 cents each
My work consists mainly of creating "music videos" (slide shows set to music) that I output at WMV 720p using Photoshop Elements. My limited use of Premiere is chiefly for the conversion of my WMV 720p slide shows to MPEG 1080i 30 format (MPEG2) either to play from my HDD on my HD monitor and TV, or, I use the MPEG2s to burn Blu-ray DVDs. Despite the fact that I only skimmed those parts of ...
