Serves as an excellent introduction into the valuation of small to middle market companies. Basic valuation techniques along with strategic possibilities and guidance through the M&A process, including synergistic possibilities and affects on purchase price. Could be more involved on the psychological effects and pressures/demands on the seller/buyer?

David Tietyens book is just what I wanted - a book about one of the most improtant things in Disney's movies - the music. The book contains pictures of the composers, background anecdotes about how the music were created, the role the songs played and much more. The only bad thing is, that it ends with Pete's Dragon, short after Walt's death. It would be nice with an updated version which covered the new movies (The Little Mermaid, Aladdin etc.)

A must-read for a Borge fan. The "Great Dane" transfers his gift for musical comedy into insightful, enjoyable writing.

This book probably has about 600 "things" listed in its almost 400 pages. It's fun, it gives one a chance to really think about our likes and dislikes in things we didn't even know we had favorites. It includes fun game ideas for using it!

The woodland trail descriptions contained in "Nature Walks" are excellent and very well detailed. My only major complaint with the book is that the directions given to arrive at the base locations are NOT accurate. I have used this guide on two trails and both times I found street names to be wrong, and measurements to be off greatly. The book does not differ between dirt and paved roads, so bring the book, but also bring a map. On a more positive note, I felt my hiking experience was greatly enhanced by the information in the book.

This is a true help when writing lesson plans for books. It is filled with countless practical ideas to use in the classroom. Included are journal questions...vocabulary concepts, bulletin board ideas...etc....it is wonderful!!!

This is the autobiography of Glenn Burke, a black, openly gay major league baseball player in the 1970's. It was written while he was living with his sister and dying from AIDS. It is a short book but very interesting. He certainly loved the game of baseball and it was a trajedy that he didn't have a better career. His describes being gay in the major league and how his friendship with Tommy Lasorda's gay son helped to shorten his time with the Dodgers. He also discusses his descent into drug addiction. His name should be more well known than it is, and I hope someday a good movie is made about him to help him get the recognition he deserves.

Hydrology is an aspect central to Arab - Israely conflict. This is one thing commonly ignored by Peace and Conflict scholars. The author suggests a valuable reminder of the water determinant in the political equation of the lengthy Middle East conflict. The book is highky actual in these days due to Israel goverment's effort to achieve peace deals with it's neighbours.

I found this workbook an excellent starting point to begin sorting out the emotionally confusion aspects of my divorce. The legal tips and reminders are also helpful.

These diplomatic and political memoirs will be fascinating reading for anyone with an interest in European history between the World Wars and, especially, in the point of view of a small, vulnerable country that watched as all hopes for protection from Germany gradually faded away. The post-World War I isolationism of the United States is depicted as the tragedy from which all else follows, and this, combined with the US abandonment of Romania at Yalta, seems ample justification for the resentment that colors the admiration with which Romanians look to the US. Britain and France are similarly unreliable sources of protection as the crisis deepens. Finally, Romania's longstanding vulnerability to Russia -- so well depicted in Florescu's "Struggle Against Russia in the Romanian Principalities, 1821-1854" and Michelson's "Romanian Politics 1859-71", from the same publisher -- comes to the fore as the country finds itself with only Russia and Germany to protect her each from the other. Written in the late 1940s, these memoirs close on a suitably bleak note: "Time does not play in behalf of the Democracies. Unless they act while there is time, another kind of peace will be the one that will prevail: the Pax Sovietica -- the peace of the concentration camp and of the unmarked mass grave."
