Perhaps the worst-written book I've read over last year.......2002-01-03

XBRL is an XML application that standardizes sharing of financial information. In a nutshell, XML stores information in easy-to-read text files which can be shared by just about any computer. Because the American Institute of CPAs is really behind XBRL and in fact published this book, I thought this book would be a good overview and introduction. Unfortunately, it's not.

Actually, this may just be the worst-written book that I've read this year. In fact, this isn't really a book. It's just a big sales pitch for XBRL--about why it's so cool, so neat, so wow... Even that wouldn't be so bad, I guess, except that this is just terrible writing. Atrocious.

Bottomline? Try any other book. It can't be as bad as this title.

Snapshot of a speeding train with a big future.......2001-08-22

XBRL is an important vocabulary of XML. Charles Hoffman is also known as the "father of XBRL" and a major contributor to the extensions for XBRL. Carolyn has made a large contribution to the eductional material available at http://www.xbrlsolutions.com/ . Having read this book, the two authors make a good team.

The book is targetted at the non technical audience. It is well written and very informative of the business case. It also contains a lot of useful links back to the technical elements of XBRL, allowing a useful translation between business and technical domains.

With the rapid developments in XML / XBRL, any XBRL book will date fast. XBRL V2.0 should be ready for recommendation in late October 2001. It may be best to view books on this subject in the same light as a magazine released every six months. Due to the high quality and style of XBRL Essentials, I will be happy to keep on buying the updates.

Very good.......2001-08-01

This book is very good for financial report and XBRl is also a good version of XML that help to make work easy for financial reports. It will go good.

Book Description

The book presents new clustering schemes, dynamical systems and pattern recognition algorithms in geophysical, geodynamical and natural hazard applications. The original mathematical technique is based on both classical and fuzzy sets models. Geophysical and natural hazard applications are mostly original. However, the artificial intelligence technique described in the book can be applied far beyond the limits of Earth science applications. The book is intended for research scientists, tutors, graduate students, scientists in geophysics and engineers

Book Description

It has been said that some men were born to power, wealth, fame, and fortune. While this may be true, this is not a story of any such man. But, if the above is true, it must also be true that some men were born to a life of pain, grief, loss, and suffering. This is a story of such a man. Comanche Creek is a book for anyone who has ever lost loved ones, whether the loss be through death or divorce. It is about modern-day problems set in Western times. The characters are all the people I have ever met combined into a character that never existed. I hope you have as much fun reading it as I did writing it. It is really a book about life, death, and the struggles in between. And just like life, humor shows up just at the right time.

Comanche Creek.......2003-10-01

As a fan of Western saga's I was searching for something new to read when I came upon Comanche Creek. As I began the book I immediately enjoyed visualizing life in west Texas in the late 1800's, and reading about "the boys" and their challenges on that remote ranch. The pleasant surprise was watching Isenberg weave a little romance and humor into the storyline. Reading about the "hallucinations" made me laugh out loud. The only negative thing I have to say about this book is Isenberg ended it too abruptly. Be interested to find out what happened on the journey.

Comanche Creek.......2003-07-11

Kevin B. Isenberg takes a world long gone and brings it vividly to life. His characters exhibit a sense of honor, and humor hard to find in today's world; and a passion for life that makes you want to be a part of their world.
Kevin manages to combine traces of history with one of the best cast of characters (and I do mean characters) I have ever met.
When does the sequel come out?

You Need To Read This Book.......2003-02-20

I admit that the first time I picked up Comanche Creek I was not certain if I could keep straight all the personas jumping off the pages, but once those colorfully written characters came to life... and embedded themselves into my heart...I couldn't put the book down! I felt if I did I would miss something. You'll fall in love with the characters, the surroundings, and will want to live your life in Comanche Creek. This book takes you on a wonderful journey...through the days when life was open and honest and exciting... and you'll be crying and laughing all the way. As an avid reader the only problem I have with this book is not knowing what happens next. I anxiously await the sequel.
