Human Resources Management Systems: A Practical Approach.......2000-12-03
The Technology to manage intellectual capital
First, it was e-commerce, then e-business; now, increasingly we see developments and hear about trends in e-HR. While HR Information Systems (HRIS) have been around and evolved over many years for a quick history, see the first chapter in Human Resources Management Systems: A practical approach, reviewed in this column a more comprehensive and strategic HR function has recently adopted the term HR Management Systems (HRMS) to reflect the enhanced importance and capabilities of today's IS and IT applications in human resources. Despite the critical role HRMS plays in the HR world, there are relatively few books published to shed light on the topic. These recent titles will help readers to understand how information is being used in HR today, the technologies and software available to support the needs, how to select and implement systems successfully, and some strategic areas the systems serve including knowledge management and intellectual capitaldevelopment. The selection of an appropriate system is a critical HR managementdecision. However, the authors go beyond the usual examination ofselection criteria and maintenance of an HRMS, to look in-depth at theopportunities to use the HRMS as a critical management tool in theorganization." Co-authors Turnbull and Doran are frequentcontributors to CHRR in areas related to HR technology and informationmanagement. This second edition is updated to reflect newdevelopments, especially Internet use and related applications. Thecoverage and style are also revised to reach an expanded audience: HR and payroll managers, general management and IS professionals as well as college- and university-level teachers and students. The first part of the book describes the background and needs for HRMS, and presents a Return on Investment approach for cost justification and demonstrated value. Next, several chapters take the reader through the stages of planning, designing, implementing and maintaining the system. The last part of the book shows, in detail, how HRMS can support core HR functional areas: *HR planning and development; *Staffing; *Training and development;
*Compensation and payroll; *Benefits and pension programs; and *Occupational health and safety.
Great Overview of HRIS/HRMS.......2000-08-16
It is clear, concise, and has chapters on every functional area of HR citing examples.

An excellent overall guide to understanding Diabetes........2000-10-16
I used Diana Guthrie's book to educate myself when my doctor turned me loose with no diet, no information and no idea of how to use my meter. This book is NOT a self diagnosing cure-all, BUT IT WAS the band aid between meeting in a diabetes educational session with a medical professional (which took three weeks, and that's a long time to wait for help) and being scared and knowing nothing. Thank you, Ms. Guthrie. In addition, I have been recommending this book to fellow diabetics.
An extraordinary book on the subject, and absolutely invaluable.

The Pursuit of Perfect Packing
Tomaso Aste , and Denis Weaire Manufacturer: Taylor & Francis ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0750306483 |
Book Description
In 1998 Thomas Hales dramatically announced the solution of a problem that has long teased eminent mathematicians: what is the densest possible arrangement of identical spheres? The Pursuit of Perfect Packing recounts the story of this problem and many others that have to do with packing things together. The examples are taken from mathematics, physics, biology, and engineering, including the arrangement of soap bubbles in foam, atoms in a crystal, the architecture of the bee's honeycomb, and the structure of the Giant's Causeway. Using an informal style and with key references, the book also includes brief accounts of the lives of many of the scientists who devoted themselves to problems of packing over many centuries, together with wry comments on their efforts. It is an entertaining introduction to the field for both specialists and the more general public.

It is a powerful book and one that I have read many times. LaFarge is a poet and he spoke Navajo so he knew their pattern of thinking, their "world view" so to speak. I can't recommend it too highly.
