Financial Independence from common sense
This book is amazing for the reason that it teaches you the way to financial independence, and how any person would start thinking business. The examples of implmenting this in the real estate are very nice, and help us to start small. A similar pattern / principle can be applied to any other business.

What Happened: Inside the Bush White House and Washington's Culture of Deception

Scott McClellan

PublicAffairs, 2008

Clearly a man with a conscious
This is not the first man who came out of the Bush administration criticizing it and also writing a book about it. He explains how the war in Iraq was not necessary and in doing so makes us realize that Bush and his counterparts are responsible for many needless deaths and injuries over there. Unfortunately, we can see this country headed for another Vietnam which is making us the laughing ...

What Got You Here Won't Get You There: How Successful People Become Even More Successful

Marshall Goldsmith, Mark Reiter

Hyperion, 2007

Words of wisdom from an outstanding executive coach
From a purely economic perspective, this may be among the most valuable books in print. If every executive followed the advice in this book, we wouldn't have more than 100 million Americans who are not engaged in their jobs and, as a result, productivity and innovation would soar. In this book, uber-executive coach Marshall Goldsmith shares his insights about the most common habitual ...

The New Paradigm for Financial Markets: The Credit Crash of 2008 and What It Means

George Soros

PublicAffairs, 2008

Cliff Notes on Soros
This 208 page book might be thought of as Cliff Notes for his previous 367 page book, The Alchemy of Finance, and will appeal to the same audience. During the 21 years between the books, Soros has mellowed somewhat and now describes his extreme Popperian position as radical falsification. I think he fears being called a skeptic. We know what happened to Socrates. Soros continues to refine and ...

What to Expect When You're Expecting: 4th Edition

37 reviews
Heidi Murkoff, Sharon Mazel

Workman Publishing Company, 2008

Surprisingly good
I bought a few books the months after we found out that my wife was pregnant. Initially i stayed away from this book, because even though the reviews were pretty good, i was really turned off by the look/design of the book, especially in the previous editions, with the image of the depressed, near suicidal woman wistfully looking out into space (that really didn't sell this whole pregnancy thing ...

Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning

Jonah Goldberg

Doubleday, 2008

A History Lesson and a Warning for the Future
I have always been interested in history and remember reading many articles and books about FDR and the Depression. The opposition to the New Deal was usually painted as "those rich guys just don't want to share." Packing the Supreme Court I knew about, but not the realy reason for FDR's attempting to do this. How fitting that we are now living in the era of an "environmental crisis" where the ...

Fleeced: How Barack Obama, Media Mockery of Terrorist Threats, Liberals Who Want to Kill Talk Radio, the ...
Dick Morris, Eileen Mcgann

Harper, 2008

Here are the facts: The United States has released 425 terrorists from Guantánamo, at least 50 of whom have returned to the battlefield to fight our troops. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both say they're fiscally responsible. But each has called for $1 trillion in tax increases over the next ten years—and dressed them up as tax cuts! Mainstream Media has been given marching orders from the Society of Professional ...

Great Book
This book really helped me decide what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go with my career. I highly recommend it to anyone who is job hunting or thinking about changing careers. The best part about this book is that it updates annually so there is always new stuff to read and consider.

P. M. Forni

St. Martin's Press, 2008

Another Winner!!
PM Forni has done it again! He has written another compact volume that is quite smart while also being quite simple, and which is exceedingly erudite while also being quite accessible. Most of all, The Civility Solution is eminently and immediately useful. Building on his prior best-selling success in Choosing Civility, Forni has created the perfect companion volume which answers the ...

For Women Only: What You Need to Know about the Inner Lives of Men

Shaunti Feldhahn

Multnomah Books, 2004

A MUST for All Relationships
This is a "wow" book! For once, as a man, I felt understood. Women will say, "Men! They just don't get it". But, there's a lot about men that women don't get. This book will enlighten all women in a way that men often times find difficult to explain. This book will give women a very good understanding of how men tick and why they act the way they do. Armed with this information and acting upon ...

This is the book to read about to learn how to systematize your business. The main thesis of the book is that you should spend more time working on your business than in your business.

Martha Beck

Rodale Books, 2008

Transformational Journey
***** This latest book from Martha Beck was more of a journey for me than just a book to read. The author advises you in the very beginning that for you to really have this book change your life, you have to do the exercises. So I did, and I was glad. They really helped me to be able to apply the concepts and ideas in a way that benefited me personally and not just theoretically. The purpose ...

Can't say enough!!!
If you are a parent of a child with anxiety, you know how it can feel like your family is held hostage by your child's worries! This book saved our family! It was recommended by our child's therapist and I just can't say enough about it. It is written for kids to understand, but it is not condescending so even an older child or teen would benefit from it. Several specific strategies are ...

What It Is

Lynda Barry

Drawn and Quarterly, 2008

Pure Lynda Barry Experience, get your creative juices going or just marvel at hers
This is the essence of the creative writing course Lynda Barry gives around the country these days. It conveys the course stuff beautifully, AND is a work of art in its own right. Not a rehash of her other books in any way, it just worms its way into your mind. Every page is beautiful, every page contains insights into creativity, every page is just plain fun (or just scary fun), and it ...

Rick Warren

Zondervan, 2007

Great study book for a group
My husband and I used this book to do an almost year long study with our house church group a few years ago. We did a chapter a week and had discussions and worked through the Points to Ponder and Questions together. Probably time to revisit this book I think! Definitely one you can do over and over again

First, Break All the Rules: What the World's Greatest Managers Do Differently

256 reviews
Marcus Buckingham, Curt Coffman

Simon & Schuster, 1999

More Profound than its Title Suggests
You can't take the title seriously (some Amazon reviewers do). The book is about what Gallup has found makes effective managers of people during its research for various clients over 10+ years. The central theme is that everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Nothing new there. What is new, is their research that shows (a) an individual's strengths are real workforce multipliers, (b) effort ...

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?

308 reviews
Bill Martin Jr.

Henry Holt and Co. (BYR), 1996

I have read this book every night for the past 8 months . . . .
as part of the bedtime routine for my now 18 mo old boy. Of course, I am able to recite it by rote after oh, about 10,000 times. I don't even have to pay attention any more, as he knows where to turn the pages. Why do I keep doing this night after night? Because every time I ask him if he's ready for his story, he giggles with delight and runs to get Brown Bear, and Goodnight Moon, the other book ...

unChristian: What a New Generation Really Thinks about Christianity... and Why It Matters

50 reviews
David Kinnaman, Gabe Lyons

Baker Books, 2007

Just a thought
The previous reviews and the book express a theme very common in the New Testament. The description of the understanding of "christian" sounds an awful lot like the biblical description of the Pharisees. Both Jesus and Paul were condemned by the religious people of their day for "not being Jewish enough" (by the understanding of the Jewish culture of their day). I would think that the ...
