This is insulting to my intelligence.......2007-07-06

I am a school teacher and my district required me to write a book review and comment on the most inspiring aspects of this text. Only problem is, I am not mill worker with a feeble mind; last time I checked I had a real college degree. The prose of this book insults me, explaining large vocabulary words and always dumbing elements down. The analogy of this book insults me, it's written like a children's book that children would hate to read. I am far less inspired to work hard knowing that my supervisors weren't willing to inspire me themselves and instead gave me homework to do. I do not recommend this book.

Good starter materiel.......2007-05-31

Excellent starter materiel for introducing rising junior leaders to the concept of energizing employees for performance.

Another Good Book From Byham and Cox.......2003-02-27

For those of you that read Zapp! this book continues on the same idea. It's in parable form, which makes it easy to read and the points made are on target.

Excellent techniques and fun to read.......2001-09-02

Helped me tremendously when I became a manager. How to tell people what needs to be done and let them figure out how to do it. Learn while following a story. You don't even realize you're learning all the techniques because the story is so fun to read.

The Managers Spell Book.......2000-09-09

Facing the constant threat of Dragons attacking the village, and encountering a mysterious gloomy fog each and every workday, was the reality for the people of Lamron. In order to preserve the village, and bring some meaning to the everyday work experience, change had to happen.

Heroz is a tale of a fictional village, of fictional characters facing problems common to the daily grind of work. Throughout the book, the people working in the arrow factory strive to determine and achieve the goal of the business, to make money and provide the knights charged with slaying the dragons, the quality arrows they need. Throughout the book, the factory workers and management personnel learn to work together, to enhance teamwork and motivation, and experience the enhanced ZAPP! gained by working together.

Heroz is a breeze to read, easy to identify with, especially if you experience the fog that rolls in the workplace at the beginning of the day, and lifts completely only after the last person has gone home. It's entertaining and humorous. You'll learn spells to use in all different situations, and upon completion of the book, will have them all compiled in the "Zapp! Wizard's Spell Book", conveniently tucked in at the conclusion of the novel.

Book Description

This meticulously researched book tells the story of Midwestern agriculture during a period of epochal change in farm technology, farm management, and farm life. The hard work, tight communities, and values that had characterized the family farm were replaced by large corporate enterprises with massive acreages, high-tech methods, and global outlooks. While many decry this change as loss, Nordin and Scott find a net gain. This is their richly detailed account of one of the great transformations in American life.

Book Description

Benoit Mandelbrot¿s pioneering research in fractal geometry has affected many areas of mathematics, physics, finance and other disciplines. The papers reprinted in this third volume of his Selected Works center on a detailed study of fractional Brownian functions, best known as the mathematical tools behind the celebrated fractal landscapes. Extensive introductory material preceding the reprints incorporates striking new observations and conjectures. This book explores the fractal themes of ¿self-affinity¿ and ¿globality.¿ The ubiquity of ¿wild¿ temporal and spatial variability led Mandelbrot, in the early 1960¿s, to conclude that those phenomena lie beyond the usual statistical techniques and represent a new state of indeterminism. New mathematical tools are needed, and this book contributes to their development.

Book Description

Journalist and broadcaster Robert Kee served as an RAF bomber pilot in World War II. His plane was shot down over Nazi-occupied Holland, and he subsequently spent more than three years in a German POW camp--trying to escape right from the start. He finally succeeded.... This is his story, first published as fiction in 1947 and now revealed as a true biography. "Arguably the best POW book ever written."--The Times. "Certain pages...especially those about being questioned while on the run, still make my blood run cold."--Observer.

An extraordinary tale of trials and triumphs!.......2004-01-13

This book is one of the best accounts of WWII suffering I have ever read! Insightful, in-depth, and completely engrossing.

A personal and enlightening read.......2002-01-09

Robert Kee's name should be recognizable by any avid reader of WWII POW stories, and I was delighted when I saw that he had written a book about his experiences.

Starting with his being shot down and ending shortly after the camp is evacuated by the Nazis, Kee's work is a little more introspective than many of the other POW books. He concentrates less on the escaping and more on his feelings and impressions of what he saw and experienced. As such, his work gives the reader a new perspective, an excellent feel for what it was like to be a POW. He even details things that other books have tended to gloss over (and that I always wondered about): how bad the latrine really was, what it was like to live in such close proximity with others, and just how bad the lack of food was, to name a few.
