Coach your employees to success
Everyone would agree that organizations are only as good as their employees. Still, many companies have not established a formal coaching and mentoring system to develop their most promising talent. Moreover, these companies do not capitalize on the vast knowledge and experience that veteran employees can pass down. Like the other useful books in the Harvard Business Essentials series, this ...

Program Balances Diet with Strength Training
Months ago, a close friend, who had recently put on some muscle and lost a bit of weight, after hearing Ellington Darden speak at a business seminar, gave me a copy of Ellington Darden's Living Longer Stronger. I read the book and put it aside. A few weeks later, I talked with a favorite university professor who had always been plagued with weight problems, and the subject came up again. He ...

Shelter Publications, 2005

18th century's approach to strengthening: bulking and artistic illustration, with minimal fitness.
In my earlier review of "Weight Training for Men and Women" by the same author, I had addressed the same issues which appear in the current book, which is nothing more than reproducing the previous book under a different title. The reason for my second review is to attempt to answer my own concerning questions. Those are: 1- What are the simplest and basic exercises needed for staying fit ...

Peter Ubel

McGraw-Hill, 2006

Beyond adversity
Ubel's book deserves a better title. We think of resilience when we read about people who escaped from poverty or horrific situations. Or we think of resolutely cheery people who call their illnesses a "gift." Ubel goes much deeper into the psychology of happiness and well-being. He does share some stories of ordinary people who were forced to encounter extraordinary illness. He shows how they ...

Da Capo Press, 2003

I love the way Maxine Schall writes.
I've been raving about this book everywhere I go. It's become one of my all-time favorite reads so far. Silly me. I thought I wouldn't need it because I'm not experiencing any trauma now. But I was SO wrong! Any time is a great time to read about people who have pulled through a terrible situation, or chosen to be creative in their problem solving, even when it seems like everything is lost ...

Very Informative
I read this book cover to cover in a couple of days. Owning a diabetic cat it was so difficult to keep her levels under control. I followed the diet guidelines and used the reference tools suggested and now have an insulin free cat who lost two pounds in 6 weeks! My vet was so impressed they asked me to give them the information so they could try it themselves. If you have a cat with this ...
