This little book is perfect to read to a child and discuss peace. Although it had black and white pages and no color, the pictures grab you! I recommend it as a quick way to get into a discussion of ways we can practice peace-keeping in our communities.

The reviewer is the author of NOT GUILTY BY REASON OF INSANITY, (which is also on Amazon.com).

Listen up you forensic professionals, this book's a wealth of information, with expertise constantly evident! Their primary audience is oriented toward the Health Care Setting, but it's certainly not limited to this arena. This is truly a "user friendly" manual, and ought to be on the desks of all individuals really wanting to do the best job possible in regard to, in fact, managing violence and aggression. Tom Mason and Mark Chandley have done a great job!

Alan Rowe and Richard Mason have written one of the clearest and most useful books available on how managers make decisions. While the work of Herbert Simon represents the basis for understanding decision making, Rowe and Mason have operationalized this science in a form useful in virtually every organization. The authors provide a simple 20 question test to determine a persons' style. Four basic elements make up an individual's decision style: analytic (rational thought); directive (results oriented); conceptual (vision & Creativity); and behavioral (understanding people). Every person has a dominant style combined with a backup style. Understanding the decision style of the people in your organization can provide valuable information when constructing teams and working to achieve maximum effectiveness among staff. Rowe and Mason provide a number of excellent examples of how style is used as well as the psychological basis for style. The book is written in a clear and easliy understood manner. Managing With Style should be a part of every leaders personal library.

This book is a fictionaized account of real events. It has great insights on naval history including state-sanctioned piracy, sharing the spoils of looting, looting etiquite, scruvy, and life at sea. Lots of fun!

Colonel Hugh North of G-2 is briefed in Florida by Dr. Maury Plack about a new weapon under development in Russia. The new military hardware uses a lightning ball as an innovative way to harness hydrogen energy. The weapon is far from being perfected but the Russians do plan to use it soon to destroy oil derricks and refineries in the vicinity of Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela. The Russians also hope to topple that country's shaky democratic regime in favor of a communist dictatorship.

North is given a mission by General R.D. Armiston, Chief of G-2, General Staff Corps, to locate the weapon and destroy it within ten days. He begins his work at the Hotel Fountainbleu in Miami Beach where he picks up the trail of two Russian agents on the way to Lake Maracaibo. North's contact person in Venezuela will be an Irish-Venezuelan named McJuan Kelley.

In this novel the author produces a fast-paced spy story reminiscent of the James Bond books of the same era. North is equipped with the latest gadgets and as usual is distracted by more than one beautiful woman.

As a best-selling novelist, I'm always on the lookout for works by great contemporary writers. I found one in this book--a good read from start to finish.

The Marketing Game! now appears in its third incarnation, some 14 years since the original launch.

Exsiting or former users of TMG!, either faculty or students, will recognise the latest version. The basic market model remains the same as do many of the operating procedures but this marketing simulation software now works through a Windows environment and contains many enhancements to improve ease of use. It is a very worthwhile and perhaps overdue update.

One noteworthy feature of TMG! is the modest cost. Unlike some alternative marketing simulations, there is no licence fee. The operating software is supplied with the Instructor version of the manual for TMG!

I hope this is only the begining for Barry Mason. The book Maroon is both exiciting and spell binding. With 15 years of police experience in both the patrol and detective bureaus, I found Maroon to be extremely entertaining and well written. I throughly enjoyed the book from beginning to end and I hope there is more to follow. Anyone with an interest in investigations and suspence should get this book as they will find it impossible to put down until they have finished reading the entire book. Barry Mason did an outstanding job on this book and I hope he will continue with more books of this nature. Well done.

this is a good book you should take a look at it
