10 reviews

South-Western Educational Publishing, 1997

Gave me more ideas than any I've read!
This is BY FAR the best book I've read of marketing ideas. It contains not just the "ideas", but also actual case histories of the ideas and WHY they worked for that particular company. I have 4 solid pages of notes from this book of things I'd like to try....both for the home-based business I'm starting and for the marketing communications company I work for. Other books I've read (and there ...

Diana Thompson

Fox Chapel Publishing, 2004

Lots of Fun Projects Here!
This is typical Diana Thompson, with a twist. Yes, there is compound cutting - but she also takes us through simple but elegant box making, inlay, and relief cutting. These boxes come out really great, and the patterns and instructions are clear and complete. If there is one complaint, it is that Diana must have access to a really good lumber supplier, because many of her wood choices are not ...

Jeffrey Phillips

iUniverse, Inc., 2008

The rubber meets the road
It seems as though almost everyone is talking about innovation these days, but in my experience, very few know how to really achieve it. Yes, you need ideas. But then what? How do you move those ideas through your organization, many parts of which want nothing to do with the change you're proposing? How do you evaluate your idea's potential? Its risks? How do you decide that one idea is more ...

Richard M. White

Chilton Book Co, 1977

Entrepreneur's Manual
One of the best, if not THE Best, Business Start-Up book... Rich White died some years back, he was working on the updated version of EM. The complete revision was nearing completion when he took sick. To the best of my knowledge the revision was never submitted to Chilton. Rich was a close and dear friend, we sent many a hour *brainstorming* and sometimes *barnstorming* new ideas.... I ...

1 review

Libraries Unlimited, 2004

This book is already obsolete.
Since this book came out four years ago, it has had very little impact on library technical services. The book is already long outdated and doesn't address current issues in technical services, such as MODS, MIX, etc. Basically, it's obsolete. The editor, Brad Eden, is known for his disdain for library technical services. He recently wrote "The era of the OPAC (library catalog) is over." ...
