5 out of 5 stars What you wish your Mother would have told you about success!.......2001-06-11

Ms. Gustafson book is the pep talk that women wish their Mother's would have given them! She helps us all realize the individuality of our definitions of success and outlines how to realize those goals.

It is an easy weekend read, with great exercises to get you thinking. Would recommend it for women ages 18-88 to help all of them make the most of each stage of their life. Success is yours for the making and taking!

5 out of 5 stars Practical and an Enjoyable Read.......2001-05-13

Implementing the concepts presented in this book does not take a lot of time and the resulting benefits make the effort very worthwhile. You will also be able to track your progress - this is a great motivator.

5 out of 5 stars I'm Affected!.......2001-04-10

The principles and teachings in this book have directly affected my life. The stories that are shared by Joan Eleanor Gustafson, along with the other successful women mentioned in this book are all so diverse, yet the writing makes it very easy to relate these stories to my personal and professional life. A Woman Can Do That! Is a MUST read for anyone (including men) wanting to take charge of their future success!

5 out of 5 stars The Bible for Success.......2001-03-26

A Woman Can Do That is worth reading over and over. I see it as my bible for success. It is equally applicable to men. To me the book offers the keys to happiness and feelings of well-being. It is unique because of the insights it offers and the way it is organized. I use it as a reference as well as keeping it close at hand to pick up and read a few pages each day and then try to put the ideas into practice. It is written in a simple straight-forward way with many examples. This book gives new meaning to the word, SUCCESS.

5 out of 5 stars Helping Me Get On Track.......2001-03-24

This book really helped me get focused again. I was in the middle of a life change and was second guessing everything I was doing. Once I started reading Joan's book I found validation in what I was feeling and was able to turn my anxiety into progress toward my future. I am happy to say I made it with flying colors and would highly recommend this book to anyone else stuck in life or job limbo!

    Book Description

    This book analyzes real options valuation for non-constant versus constant interest rates using simulation and historical backtesting. Several real options are investigated and combined with various pricing tools and stochastic term structure models. Interest rates for real options valuation are simulated by using stochastic term structure models (Vasicek, Cox-Ingersoll-Ross, Ho-Lee, and Hull-White one-factor and two-factor models) and by using implied forward rates. The book shows that the assumption of a constant interest rate in real options valuation is not justifiable. All necessary theory is provided in the book. The analyses were conducted using a proprietary computer simulation program. All results are explained in detail and rules are derived for application in Corporate Finance practice. For the first time, a systematic analysis based on simulations and historical backtesting compares real options valuation using constant interest rates and the implied forward rates with methods that simulate interest rates stochastically.

    Book Description

    Now in paperback, "rich and engaging" (Emerge) short stories on African Americans and the law in the tradition of Derrick Bell and Richard Wright. Now available in paperback, The Monkey Suit is David Dante Troutt's "impressive" debut (Kirkus Reviews), a collection of short stories inspired by historic legal cases involving African Americans in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The Monkey Suit addresses issues ranging from Jim Crow segregation ordinances to warrantless private property searches in stories the Washington Post calls "quietly devastating." Troutt brilliantly combines legal scholarship with literature in a book that Claude Brown calls "truly a work of genius."

    5 out of 5 stars Possibly the best written short fiction of this era........1999-11-21

    Troutt has accomplished his stated goal in grand style. He has given life to people who always get lost in the intricacies of the legal system. He has given them culture, voice and heart. In the process has done an extraordinary job of conveying the complexities of African American cultures. His writing verges on poetry.

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderfully written, timely, thought-provoking.......1998-11-07

    Just a first-rate collection of fiction, the right measure of subtlety, sharp, insightful. Readers who liked this book will love Swiss Movement by Vaughn A. Carney, which is alternately hilarious and tragic.

    5 out of 5 stars Compelling, powerful and unique.......1998-01-27

    David Dante Troutt presents a brilliant collection of short fiction involving African-Americans and the law. The points of view are unique and compelling, and Mr. Troutt's prose is lyrical and accomplished. A stunning achievement, not to be missed.

          5 out of 5 stars The Current State of the Art in DTM.......2005-07-19

          The concept of digital terrain modelling (DTM) began about fifty years ago. The original concept was very simple, the three dimensions of each point were simply put into a database. Over time the technologies of using the data, collecting the data, and the storage of the data has developed into ever more complex forms.

          This book has chapters on each of these general areas. It is truly a comprehensive mathematically rigorous guide to DTM as it exists today.

          In addition to the chapters on producing the various kinds of models, there are a couple of chapters on applications to illustrate the kinds of things that are being done with DTM.

          The book was written by three Ph.D. professors who now teach at the University of Calgary, one of the universities in the lead of DTM.

          Book Description

          Solid-State Imaging with Charge-Coupled Devices covers the complete imaging chain: from the CCD's fundamentals to the applications. The book is divided into four main parts: the first deals with the basics of the charge-coupled devices in general. The second explains the imaging concepts in close relation to the classical television application. Part three goes into detail on new developments in the solid-state imaging world (light sensitivity, noise, device architectures), and part four rounds off the discussion with a variety of applications and the imager technology.
          The book is a reference work intended for all who deal with one or more aspects of solid- state imaging: the educational, scientific and industrial world. Graduates, undergraduates, engineers and technicians interested in the physics of solid-state imagers will find the answers to their imaging questions. Since each chapter concludes with a short section `Worth Memorizing', reading this short summary allows readers to continue their reading without missing the main message from the previous section.

          This book could have been better. But considering how many books on CCDs are actually available - this book is too good to be true. It is fairly in-depth and deals with a broad array of topics. Processing (eg. doping levels etc) perspective should have been better.

          Mental Radio
          Upton Sinclair

          World-renowned author of "The Jungle" and described as a "prophet of social justice," Upton Sinclair astounded his readers and the scientific world with a bold venture into the paranormal. Written in 1929 by Sinclair with his wife, Mary Craig Kimbrough, "Mental Radio" is the product of Sinclair's reading - hundreds of volumes on psychic research - followed by three years of intense, hands-on scientific investigation into psychic phenomena. Without a doubt, Sinclair's in-depth study of his wife's telepathic abilities helped establish the paranormal as a subject worthy or scientific consideration and research.

          - A timeless classic of paranormal exploration and dicovery from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Upton Sinclair

          - Hundreds of carefully controlled, precisely documented instances of telepathic communication

          - A book far ahead of its time in proposing human ability to learn and use psychic skills

          - A deliberate, brilliant, and finely-crafted work whose impact has not lessened with time

          Customer Reviews:

          5 out of 5 stars Stepping Out On A Limb For The Sake Of Truth.......2002-04-18

          Upton Sinclair took a considerable gamble by writing this book and had to withstand a good deal of criticism as a consequence of it. It was obvious, though, that he felt this was a story that needed to be told, and we should be glad he went through with his hunch.

          The book is essentially a description of a large number of experiments done in the areas of mental telepathy and remote reviewing, broken down into sets or groups of sessions. The author tends to bend over backwards to convince the public of the sincere intentions of all involved in these tests - mostly his wife, himself, his secretary, brother-in-law and several friends and associates.

          The information is presented in a very frank and accessible manner, without a lot of protocol and formality, because the tests were being carried out by non-scientists who were just trying to be as diligent as possible. This in turn makes for easy reading by the layman.

          Chapter 21 is a verbatim account by Sinclair's wife (whom he calls by her middle name, Craig). It is both a handbook of her methodologies and a fascinating insight into the way she theorizes the workings of the mind. This is very useful information for anyone wanting a "how to" for remote viewing or telepathic research and is a very simple sequence of instructions. Of course a great deal of practice would be necessary to achieve the necessary level of concentration required. But at least one can have a distinct roadmap to follow as opposed to a lot of vague references.

          5 out of 5 stars Mary Craig Sinclairs Story of Her Amazing Clairvoyance!!!.......1998-11-08

          Author Upton Sinclair is ledgend. What is more complementary to the great authors saga is his soul mate and life's companion, wife Mary. A certain risk in Sinclair's time was the issue of "the occult". Even polite discussion or any association to the subject labeled it's members as outsiders or worse. So is the bravery and love that Upton and Mary Sinclair bring to the reader in enlightenment and discovery. That the "subject" of telepathy and precognitive ability is based intimatly between man and wife, it unfolds in a love story, bringing us closer to the heart and our minds deepest of mystery's. "Mental Radio" is a book of wonderment and love. The reader takes a glimpse into a couples quest to bring understanding to our lives and their discoverys. The book is justly prefaced by none other than Albert Einstien, May 23, 1930.

            Hadley Cantril was chairman of the Institute for international Social Research: his Invasion From Mars: A Study In The Psychology Of Panic originally appeared in 1940 but remains a modern classic even in its reprint edition over fifty years later. The focus on the lasting effects of Orson Welles' radio adaptation of the fantasy War of the Worlds explores how radio could have such an effect - and how people judged the accuracy of what they were hearing on the radio.

              Book Description

              Radio talk show host and author Michael Savage has for years been given free rein to distort facts, cherrypick information and just plain lie in supporting his radical conservative opinions. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the three books Savage considers his "legacy." But now, award-winning journalist Bill Bowman puts the truth to Savage's lies, revealing Savage's rampant egotism, sloppy research and willingness to spin "facts"out of whole cloth. This is not an attack on Savage's opinions. It is, however, a long-overdue fact checking of some of the bedrock arguments Savage uses to substantiate those opinions.

              5 out of 5 stars There's Trouble In The Savage Nation!.......2007-09-21

              Right-wing talk radio hate monger Michael Savage is exposed in this excellently written book by Bill Bowman. Mr. Bowman tells how Savage changes the truth around and spews his hateful diatribe against Liberal Democrats, women and gays just to get his point across. It's a good thing to know that there are other talk radio programmes that does not have to lie to inform listeners. Savage Lies may just be the first book to combat Michael Savage's conservative garbage. I tip my hat to Mr. Bowman.

              5 out of 5 stars A psychotically violent nation........2007-09-16

              Mr. Bowman has done the country a great service by deconstructing the deceitful arguments of Michael Savage. On top of all the misinformation, Savage is also training his emotionally vulnerable audience in how to carry a consistently combative, denegrating attitude towards various enemies of America's military industrial state.
              A nation as psychotically violent as ours (having exterminated the indigenous population and murdered millions in Indochina, Central America, the Middle East, East Timor, Angola and beyond) needs figures like Savage to advance its crusade to expand markets, exploit labor and steal the resources of defenseless people of the Global South. The military and corporate functionaries (little Eichmanns) who help to make this injustice happen, generation after generation, need to hear comforting illusions from various "perception managers" who will make them feel good about their savagery Necessary Illusions: Thought Control in Democratic Societies.
              Edward Bernays, a pioneer in the field of public relations (whose work Joseph Goebbels utilized during the Nazi's period of savagery), was quite honest about his profession's efforts to colonize minds. Bernays, a nephew of Sigmund Freud's, said, "If we understand the mechanism and motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without their knowing it."
              PR!

              Fortunately, as with every effort to oppress people, physically or mentally, there is resistance. The U.S. does have some good media offerings among public radio (particularly their program "The World" which respects the people and cultures that Savage attacks), and also community and college radio stations that air informative programs like "Democracy Now!" with Amy Goodman and "Alternative Radio" with David Barsamian.

              Propaganda and the Public Mind
              On top of that, there is the more recent development of progressive talk radio, such as "The Thom Hartmann Show" and "Ring of Fire" with Robert Kennedy, Jr.; and internet efforts like "Head On Radio" with Bob Kincaid.
              What Would Jefferson Do?: A Return to Democracy
              Lastly, there are countless people creating, buying, sharing and selling progressive magazines, DVDs and books to counter the "Savage Lies" of Michael and so many other right-wing media personalities.
              Yes!

              I'd like to see Bowman network with various media efforts. The people who publish "Extra!" would appreciate his work. Extra! - the Newsletter of Fair He could even call into programs like Bob Kincaid's and further expose the sort of deceptions that Savage cranks out on the public's airwaves.
              I don't know how Michael can look himself in the mirror.

              "The modern advances in the art of propaganda have been met with no corresponding advances in training to resist propaganda. And so the populations of the world, one by one as 'civilization' reaches them, go down in a dark pit of madness while all that is worth preserving perishes in aimless slaughter." - Bertrand Russell

              Thank you Mr. Bowman for your contribution in helping us to resist the propaganda.

              4 out of 5 stars You need an encyclopedia to document Savage's mistruths.......2007-06-09

              This is a good start. Bowman refutes the untruths in Savage's writings. He'd need dozens of volumes to handle the lies on the radio shows. I'm glad someone is doing God's work and not letting a demagogue get away with spouting any garbage that comes to mind, and ditto and dumbo heads will follow along mindlessly.

              Aside from being the first listener with a Savage Fan Site,
              I am one of the biggest critics of Michael, his broadcasters, his syndicator, and his own behaviour.
              This book reads like some U.C. Santa Cruz freshman's BLOG. I've seen more accurate and poignant
