Well worth considering
I have long been a believer that books are to be shared. I spent a lot on this book with a weird format and less than 100 pages, and since I have done that, I have struggled to keep my hands on it. In an organisation that is trying had to follow the ITIL framework, most of my colleagues are familiar with the principles, and applying them in practice. This book presents a simple way for ...

Great book
After so long Griffin decided to continue in his brotherhood of war series. But nevertheless it is just as good as the others in the series.

One of the best books of its genre! Highly recommended!
I am neither a war lover nor a military enthusiast. However, I do believe I can learn a lot, business and personal wise, from the endeavours of special op guys who, supposedly, had gone through training and fighting far beyond the capabilities of an average civilian under the most adverse conditions. In that respect, this book satisfied me well. Although the 14 principles prescribed by the author ...

This includes Every Detail that you need!!!
I studied Spec Ops for quite a while. But all the information I gather was not complete. Especially those Ops for 20-30 years. But this book really makes a difference. Every detail of the Op that you want to know was in it. Location. situation and planning...results I think this is a wonderful book for those who want to study Spec Op Cases!!!

BEST IN ITS CLASS!
I have read two other books by the author (Neal SEAL workout, and Master Level Fitness) and this is by far his best book to date, and I rate it BEST IN CLASS. There are so many "SEAL" fit-type books in the marketplace and I have read them all, but this is the very best of all of the ones available to the reader. The book is well-organized, is broken up into separate workouts depending on which ...

Great start to a new series
I loved Show No Mercy. Gerard just gets better with each book she writes. The characters in SNM had such great depth and Gerard really gave them excellent back stories to reveal their personalities and reasons for why they are who they are. Gabe was your great alpha, don't-want-to-love-again hero. But, he was so much more than just your typical alpha hero and wasn't just a cliche. Jenna was ...

More good stuff from the Visibe Ops guys
When I first got into the world of IT Service Management, the Visible Ops Handbook distilled the important information and delivered something that was missing from the official ITIL literature...how to execute. What I found in the accessible pages of the Visible Ops Handbook was how to justify and start a service management initiative. The beauty of the rationale in Visible Ops lies in the ...

It's $13 that you NEED to spend, if you want to buy, bought or are selling an apartment in NY.
Pros of co-op ownership: You can actually afford to own something. You can have a tax write off like normal people. Cons of co-op ownership: Everything else. Enter The New York Co-op Bible. I had it, read it, lost it am now purchasing a second copy after looking high and low for the first one I bought. That should tell you something. I own a co-op in Metro New York. My managing ...

One of best books I have ever read
This is awesome book related to current events, far left media, and even back to events of Viet Nam War. Like most of Johnstone's books, it is also a "pager turner". I look forward to another with the main characters in the near future. I hope millions read this book.

Even More Relevant Today
John J. Nutter's The CIA's Black Ops traces the history of the use of covert operations by Cold War-era policymakers as a "third option," used in situations in which neither diplomacy nor overt military action were deemed desirable. A political scientist and not a historian, the author argues that covert operations were unavoidable (and, at times, necessary) during the Cold War and still are in ...

A Page Out Of History
I served as Chief of Security for Air America in Thailand and Vietnam from 1967-1975. I enjoyed "Mule's" book very much. For those who shared Jim Parker's experiences you will relive old memories. For those who could not be there you will find the details fascinating. I would encourage you to read this one.

Weisman continues top notch
While some things require a leap of faith, and not a little imagination, this story is very much the work of a master story teller. It isn't anything like the books he does with Dick Marcinko, but that takes away nothing; the two have very different styles, and this is a different story. BRAVO!
