"Triangle" Sucks You In!

When you open up a Strange Matter book, you're about to go on a roller coaster that you never want to end. "The Fairfield Triangle" is no exception.

In "Triangle" we meet detective - to - be Russell Drake, a well prepared investigator of the unknown. A local writer's equipment disappears inside the Fairfield Triangle, so Russell and his father, Sheriff Drake, are on the case.

After Russell's detective kit disappears, he goes head first into the case with the local writer's daughters'. They decide to venture into the middle of the triangle where they encounter phantoms they appear and disappear, taking objects with them.

"The Fairfield Triangle" is a suspense filled venture into one of the biggest mysteries of our time, and throw a theory in our face that is far-fetched and reasonible at the same time. Read it today


Taking Sides: Clashing Views on Controversial Issues in Business Ethics and Society
Published in Paperback by McGraw-Hill/Dushkin (06 March, 2000)
Authors: Lisa H. Newton, Maureen M. Ford, McGraw-Hill Companies, and Fairfield University
Average review score:

You don't have to read it
This book covers 19 controversial issues. First the authors bring an issue, give some comments and give two articles that discuss the issue, but are contraversial to each other.

The reason why this book cannot get more than three stars is that the choise of articles wasn't really successful. Sometimes some of the articles seem not to make sence at all. Some of them don't answer any questions.

For instance, the one about Patenting Life; second article, which keeps ripping on Rifkin (the author of the previous article) instead of discussing some of the issues Rifkin mentioned in his article against Patenting Life.It's obvious that he's for patenting lives, but he doesn't come even close to some of the issues that Rifkin talks about in his article. He just tries to avoid them because he doesn't know how to answer to those claims. The author could pick a different articles in this and many other cases as well.

Also the second article of CEO Compensation Issue doesn't make any sence. Actually, the author of the article was Lisa H. Newton herself. She asserts that CEOs do nothing but writing memos and lay offs, at the same time receiving over 47,000 times (if I remember correctly) more than other people in developing nations like Africa and Asia do, and 209 times more than his employees.Common, this is not called Ethics in Business. She doesn't face the facts brought up by the author of the article who gave pretty reasonable arguements why CEOs should get that much compensations, why they are worth it.

Some of the articles do not provide with any references or sources of citations from outside sources when needed. I can mention one from Rifkin's article on patenting life.

The reason why this book got three stars is that, the issues brought by authors are pretty interesting and some are thought provoking. Even though one doesn't agree with the arguements, you can still learn something by reading them, and try not to repeat some of the blunders made by the authors.

I do recommend you to go for alternatives if you want a book on Business Ethics.
