Book Description
The Egyptian Museum in Cairo is the greatest treasure-house of ancient Egyptian art there is, but major museums--and many smaller museums--in other countries throughout the world also boast fine Egyptian collections. While archaeologists excavate the remains of pyramids, temples, and tombs, scholars at museums, universities, and other institutions are also furthering the understanding of ancient Egyptian culture through their study of the artifacts contained in the world's Egyptian galleries. To celebrate the centennial of the Egyptian Museum, which opened its doors in 1902, museum directors and Egyptologists were invited to contribute accounts of Egyptian collections or studies of Egyptian artifacts around the world. The result is an impressive array of scholarship--in all, 130 studies in English, French, German, and Arabic describing collections from Argentina to South Africa, from the Netherlands to Jordan, and dealing with predynastic palettes and Ptolemaic coins, Meroitic anklets and hieratic ostraca, stelae and linen, scarabs and wigs.

Book Description
In the wake of the Asian financial crisis that erupted in 1997, an intense scrutiny of the principles and standards of the world's financial system was inevitable. This new book, a major milestone in the progressive development of the new financial architecture arising from the debacle, represents the penetrating insight and practical proposals of twenty-five experts, including economists, lawyers, bankers, academics, and officials from international financial institutions. The important contributions offered here were originally presented at a series of conferences sponsored in 1999 and 2000 by the Asian Institute of International Financial Law of the University of Hong Kong in collaboration with leading law faculties from five continents. The issues boldly confronted in International Financial Sector Reform include the following: + reform of domestic securities regulation; + investment insurance and risk management; + the role of pension funds; + accounting standards; + financing real estate and construction projects; + global competitiveness in the financial sector; + responsibility of private lenders; + effective anti-money laundering measures; + protection of emerging market economies; + corporate governance; and + institutional investors. All professionals and policymakers interested in sustainable economic recovery, not only in Asia but throughout the world, will benefit enormously from these authors' fully informed and carefully formulated views. Although the new architecture they here suggest will find its most immediate application in assisting emerging markets to withstand future shocks, the nature of the interdependent world in which we now live will ensure increased global financial stability as a result of this invaluable work.

Book Description
The complete resource for fundraisers in any nonprofit organization!
Conducting a Successful Fundraising Program outlines a unique approach to successful fundraising and features an exhaustive resource section that includes actual organization publications, direct mail samples, model case statements, telemarketing scripts, special events check-lists, and more. This all-in-one resource covers all the traditional elements of fundraising--including annual giving, major gifts and planned giving, corporate and foundation relations, prospect research and management, and fundraising literature and promotions--as well as current issues such as gift administration, technology, and the use of consultants and paid solicitors in the solicitation process. Dove identifies the ten prerequisites that predict success in fundraising and then leads the reader step-by-step through every phase of the fundraising process, and provides specific advice on the elements crucial to any program's success.
Customer Reviews:
Comprehensive, Intelligent and Very Helpful.......2006-11-04
Dove's text surpasses the two other books I've read on fundraising in numerous ways. He provides a thorough, well-organized approach to fundraising in general and with extensive attention both to the various types of campaigns and to the many components that make up a successful program. Furthermore, Dove cites countless sources of research and practitioner experience, so that his admonitions about what to do and how to do it have a clear rationale and empirical evidence undergirding them. While I'm sure I'll continue to read other texts to delve deeper into details, I can't imagine I'll need to read another overview in the near future, because Dove's work has completely met that need for me.
Current, creative, thorough.......2004-12-30
A comprehensive resource guide to the many variables of nonprofit fundraising campaigns and events. Well-researched; well-written. Especially helpful was the resource section, which provided actual templates and word-for-word scripts -- very applicable.
Book Description
Conducting a Successful Major Gifts and Planned Giving Program--the fifth volume in the groundbreaking Dove on Fundraising Series--is a complete guide to establishing and sustaining a major gifts and planned giving program in a nonprofit organization. Written by master fundraiser Kent E. Dove and coauthors Alan M. Spears and Thomas W. Herbert, this essential resource includes the information needed to build a viable major gifts and planning giving program and offers a clear understanding of the law as it pertains to a variety of planned giving options.

Customer Reviews:
Completely helpful.......2007-01-05
For a small company, this book was just what we needed. It outlined different state requirements, some common pitfalls, and provided sample text for editing. Overall, just what we needed to be a professional little business.
Great Book.......2006-11-05
It's very easy to read and has a wealth of information in it.
Worth its weight in gold!!!.......2004-05-18
This book should be on every employer's bookshelf! I am so impressed by how comprehensive, well organized, and easy to use it is. Steingold really knows what he's talking about, he explains all of the complex laws and regulations that trip up unprepared employers and result in expensive lawsuits. Thanks to this book I learned the best ways to comply with OSHA, wage-and-hour laws, sexual harassment and discrimination laws, the Americans with Disabilities Act and many many more. You owe it to yourself to know your rights and responsibilities as an employer and to protect your company from needless litigation.
A mile wide and several feet deep.......2000-11-16
An excelent, readable, survey of the law on this topic. The greatest strengths of the book are two-fold. First, it is written in easy to follow, plain english. Second, it is amazingly comprehensive. I have been practicing employment law in two millenia, and this is the book that I use (after reviewing dozens) to teach non-lawyer classes on the topic. As with any survey book, it doesn't cover the details of the many topics it touches. You don't want to use this book to deal with comprehensive planning or an employment law dispute. But if you read this book you'll understand much of the language and many of the concerns of the experienced human resources professional or lawyer that you need.
Protect your business from employee and government law suits.......2000-09-23
Here is the book that will teach you what you need to know to keep compliance with the law and protect your business. Easy to read and comprehend, this book will help you promote fair business practices and avoid lawsuits. Folks, there are many laws most business people don't know about. This book will bring you up to speed. It's a necessity for the small and large business alike.
