Practice Makes Perfect: Spanish Verb Tenses 125 reviews
Dorothy Richmond
McGraw-Hill, 1996
Super book to work in!
I got this book as an accompaniment to another Spanish book I bought at the same time. This book is so much better! It gives very clear explanations and examples and the best are the exercises and translations that you are asked to do. The complete answer key is in the back to check your work. I highly recommend this book!

The No-Cry Sleep Solution: Gentle Ways to Help Your Baby Sleep Through the Night 682 reviews
Elizabeth Pantley, William Sears
McGraw-Hill, 2002
I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!
At first when I read this book it seemed too involved and I was a tad bit turned off by what seemed like a lot of work. I set the book aside and admittedly didn't follow it to the T. I did however implement some of the basic ideas, no nursing/sucking to sleep and gradually assisting to sleep less and less etc and what I have now is a baby that puts himself to sleep without ever having to let him ...

When Markets Collide: Investment Strategies for the Age of Global Economic Change 28 reviews
Mohamed El-Erian
McGraw-Hill, 2008
A Must Buy Book For The Chaos Ahead..
This new world order of financial chaos scares me to death. It is certainly not about me personally but rather my family and what I will leave behind for them.
I bought Mohamed El-Erian's book around the same time I bought Crash Proof: How to Profit From the Coming Economic Collapse (Lynn Sonberg Books). I found both of them to contain very valuable (and timely) advice, which helped, calm ...

Eric R. Braverman
McGraw-Hill, 2008
Your Personal AgePrint
A few years ago I read The Edge Effect and got impressed with the work of Dr Braverman. Now in "Younger You" I found even more evidence that feeling younger... and getting younger is a feasible option for just about everyone. Each of us can reach for a longer and healthier old age by applying what Dr Braverman outlines in such eloquent way.

Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High136 reviews
Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, ...
McGraw-Hill, 2002
Common sense isn't really all that common
I like this book a lot. Developed for business communication it has applications for many areas of life. I found it clear, instructive, insightful and relatively free of new-age doublespeak. I work in an ER and I communicate with angry people (sometimes including myself) in emotionally-charged situations on a daily basis. I find the techniques presented in this book quite practical.

The Toyota Way83 reviews
Jeffrey Liker
McGraw-Hill, 2003
To understand this company's success, first understand its DNA
I read this book when it was first published in 2004 and recently re-read it, curious to know how well Jeffrey Liker's explanation of Toyota's management principles and lean production values have held up. My conclusion? Very well.
No good purpose would be served by merely listing the 14 management principles, out of context. Liker devotes a separate chapter to each, carefully explaining not ...

SPIN Selling96 reviews
Neil Rackham
McGraw-Hill, 1988
Best Sales Book I've Ever Read
I've read over 200 books on sales and marketing in my career and SPIN Selling is without question one of the best out there. No tactics, techniques or processes (those never work) like other sales books. Excellent for relationship selling. I am seeing the author Neil Rackham in one of his very rare live appearances in December of 08 (www.MoveAhead1.com) and highly recommend that everyone reading ...

The Praxis Series Official Guide
Some of the problems in the PPST I test were the same as the problems in this book. The Essay Topics section was right on the money. The topic I was given was the same as one of the topics in this book. I wish I would have studied this section more. I also purchased REA PRAXIS PPST tests.
I passed two of the three tests - Reading: 175; Math: 185, and I am still waiting for the results from ...

A well-organized, bullet-pointed listing of the big elements of the Lean Six Sigma processes. A great tool to have handy for referencing when the big kahuna wants to talk about the program. It's the size of a typical paperback novel and organized in a logical, intuitive fashion.
