Accounting for Non-Accountants: The Fast and Easy Way to Learn the Basics 25 reviews
Wayne Label
Sourcebooks, Inc., 2006
Great Refresher!!!
I think Dr. Label's book offered me a great refresher in basic accounting. I took accounting, over thirty years ago. Many changes have occurred since then, however, this books sums up basic accounting as I remember. I have also used this book to help me explain accounting concepts to clients. Often accountants expect others to understand exactly what we are saying, however, all clients do not ...

I'm a little biased...
I love this book and not just because I wrote it! I'm extremely proud of The Naked Roommate on so many levels.

I'm proud of the resources & support services included in it (you'll find the latest stats & facts from the leading authorities). And I'm ...

Gruber's approach is clean, clear, thorough. The emphasis isn't gimmicks, it's ...

Vicky Oliver
Sourcebooks, Inc., 2005
An Ideal Interview Companion
No one enjoys sitting in front of an interview board and be judged. And everyone has a pet fear, "What if they think I am too old to start over" or "How do I explain why I quit my first job?" You will be surprised to know how many people stay in a job they hate just because they don't want to go through the job search, especially the interview.
This book is a companion that makes you realize ...

The 'Black Sheep' of the title is Mr Miles Calverleigh, a gentleman who was sent to India twenty years before after shaming his family. Unfortunately for Miss Abigail Wendover, the absent Mr Calverleigh's nephew Stacy is apparently ...

Staff of U.S.News & World Report

Count on US News
Regardless of what you may hear. People can count on US News to continue to deliver solid information on higher education and even rank schools based on certain criteria. I reccommend guides like this as a starter if someone has no idea what school is best for them. Or if someone simply wants some information on a school in one handy book. Otherwise, it is going to be difficult to find this kind ...

Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife: Pride and Prejudice Continues 450 reviews
Linda Berdoll
Sourcebooks Landmark, 2004
Everything I was looking for
I have to say I agree entirely with Linda Berdoll's statement - I watched the BBC miniseries myself and thought it the definitive depiction of Pride and Prejudice. I was so much in need of getting more out of that story that I've read all kinds of retellings and sequels but they were all superficial and lacking. This story, however, truly encompasses all of the passion and love you have come to ...

The Wedding Ceremony Planner: The Essential Guide to the Most Important Part of Your Wedding Day32 reviews
Judith Johnson
Sourcebooks Casablanca, 2005
Great advice for many types of weddings
My Mom, our officiant, found this book and recommended I pick up a copy. The ceremony was one of the last things we nailed down but I was able to use her structure and some of what she wrote, add our own stuff, and the end result was wonderful. Neither the groom nor I are religious or spiritual, but I still wanted an emotional and meaningful celebration of our relationship. This was the first ...

Great book for novice
I read the book and found it very informative. The system works but is not really for the beginner. I felt the book could have helped more on developing the questions as well as implementation. The book was great that is why I still gave it 5 stars
