Book Description

Leading international scholars challenge neoliberalism on its assumptions, way of reasoning, and empirical evidence. In particular, they discuss critically, from the standpoint of radical perspectives, the issues of limiting the state and privatization, inflation and unemployment, and the possibility of a socialist society. They also discuss the current project for the monetary and economic union (EMU) of Europe, considered as an application of neoliberalism. They assess and question the internal market, the common currency and central bank independence; and investigate alternatives to the EMU project and the marketization agenda.

Book Description

"Let Me Look in Your Drawers: Simple Solutions for the Organizationally Challenged" provides an answer to the most basic of all organizational questions: what to do with the constant barrage of paper that is daily slipped into your mailbox, added to your "In" basket, and emptied from your child's school pack. Getting the paper in your life logically organized is the first big step in the process of home and office management: harness the mounds of paper and the rest will fall into place. It is a small challenge that reaps huge rewards if only for the fact that you will finally feel in control of SOMETHING!

Some Decent Tips.......2005-05-27

Mitchell helps readers attack clutter by offering a system for handling the piles of paper. I would like to have seen several other tips for increasing productivity beyond paper management.

Not Helpful.......2002-09-14

Contains almost no useful information. Many pages only contain a few sentences. It would have been possible to condense everything in this book into a four page pamphlet. The books by Hemphill and Morgenstern have much more substance, but my favorite is Pat Dorff's book.

Loved it. Very helpful........2002-04-10

I was fortunate in receiving a copy of this book as I was packing and moving. It was invaluable especially because I didn't have time (or desire) to spend a lot of time reading a bunch of psychobabble. I needed some direction in organizing and packing my office and the rest of my house. This book is straight to the point and concise - just what's needed! It helped a lot. Great book!

Easy Does It - Keep It Simple.......2002-04-06

For folks who are already overwhelmed with the chaos and disorganization in their lives, this little book is a lifesaver. You can tell that the author meant the book to be easy to use. The key to getting organized is doing what's easy and what works. This books offers the basic tools needed to start making sense out of clutter. Once the basics are mastered, its easier to design a more customized solution.

Thanks to Melinda Mitchell.

...

To my surprise, when it arrived, it was only a pamphlet. I suspended my disbelief, thinking, "Maybe this author is so organized that she can distill all I need to know to organize my home office into a few short pages." So, I started reading.

She starts off by instructing the reader not to buy fancy office supplies, and just start with hanging folders, manila folders, paper clips, rubber bands, sandwich bags and file storage boxes. That sounded o.k.

She suggests buying a 4-drawer file cabinet, with the drawers allocated as follows: Office, Statements/Tax Info, Family, Newsletters/Warranties. I thought it was a little unusual to have an entire drawer for newsletters and warranties.

But where she really lost me was the "office" drawer. Her subcategories for this drawer are, "bills, correspondence, parking/tolls/metro fees, receipts, out-of town expenses." This really felt amateurish to me, because if a small business follows her system, "correspondence" will contain maybe 10-50 subcategories, since it will contain the real "work" of the business, whereas she has an entire supercategory for "parking/tolls/metro fees."

This seemed unbalanced and unhelpful to me. Better to have supercategories like "Income" and "Expenses" or "Accounts payable" and "Accounts receivable" or "Clients" and "Vendors." All of "parking/tolls/metro fees, receipts, an out-of town expenses" could fit in an "expenses" category.

The pamphlet continues on with some good standard suggestions, such as using box-bottom folders for investment statements. But then it just gets lazy: "consult your tax advisor for a list of items that will facilitate a quicker and simpler tax filing." She could have at least printed a list distilled from her tax advisor. I know mine sends us an "organizer" every year, and if I had written the book, I would have gotten his permission to list his categories and subcategories.

The book continues on, with more whitespace than words on many pages, which in addition to the unprofessional sans serif font, give the impression of a very amateurish job. I have found every other organization book I have read more helpful than this one. Included are books by Barbara Hemphill, Harriet Schecter, and Julie Morgenstern. I suggest readers will find more success organizing their home offices by following guidelines in these books.

A Must Read for Black Female Business Owners.......2007-10-02

It is with great enthusiasm that I offer my highest recommendation for Sister CEO: The Black Woman's Guide to Starting Your Own Business. This book is a must read for any aspiring and/or established black female business owner. This book has been completely instrumental in my gowth as an entrepreneur and as a reult I regard it as my business bible. The book is both incredibly informative and inspiring. The author does an incredible job of presenting both the pros and cons of starting a business. In addition, Ms. Broussard shares both her personal experiences and those of other successful black female business owners which makes for an excellent read. This book is definitely one of the best books that I have ever read and I highly recommend it for any black woman who is thinking of starting her own business.

THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!.......2007-03-21

This book gives you exactly what you need to push forward and start your own business. There's nothing like being a SISTER CEO and I will tell everyone I know about this book. Even if your business is an on-the-side part-time gig, this book helps you get moving. It's very inspirational and a MUST READ for the Sister CEOs of tomorrow.

Aspiring Salon & Spa Owner.......2002-09-03

I purchased and read this book three years ago when I was a college student. I read it and honesty have to say didn't put much thought into the valuable information and advice until I entered the "Real World" aka life after college. Since working in Corporate America for the last 2 1/2 years I realize I will never be paid my worth unless I go into business for myself.
This book will lay the foundation for women that are serious about taking control of their financial destiny and life. This is a must read for women serious about success.

Fantastic for all black women.......2001-10-24

I am a Black Australian woman and I found this book applicable to my situation. The information crosses all boundries and the advice useful in many situations.

Believe and Succeed.......2001-04-02

At last a book to inspire and encourage black women to attain greatness. Both my self esteem and belief in my own abilities grew and grew as I read this book. It not only provides a guide to starting your own business, it also makes you believ you can succeed just like our mother and grandmothers, only we didn't see their efforts as entrepreneurial. I appreciate the history of the women of my family more and inspired by the book are working at becoming a part of that history by establishing my own business. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Diabetes by Govindji.......2003-10-11

The author provides a realistic regimen for handling diabetes.
The basic program encourages a reduction in starch and fried
foods with low salt consumption. There should be approximately
5 portions of fruits and vegetables daily. The patient should
reduce sugary foods. The authors provide a sample meal.
For instance, breakfast may consist of mango yogurt and eggs
with salmon or some other protein derivative. Lunch may
consist of bean soup, lentils or shrimp. The main course may consist of fish, chicken, lean meat and/or a healthy dose of
veggies.

Book Description

The Sixth United States Infantry Regiment carried a long legacy into the Civil War. From its inception in 1815, this division was made up of rugged men who fought on the frontier protecting settlers. This work follows the history of the regiment from duty on the prairie and the march to Utah to help the soldiers fighting the Mormon war, to the regiment's time in California, including the Colorado, or Mohave, campaign, to their transportation east to become part of the Army of the Potomac, to participation in Civil War battles through Gettysburg, and then to reconstruction duties in the South after the war. Also discussed are topics such as life in the camp, hardships in the field, garrison life with families, and information on the fates of some of the men listed on the prewar roster. It ends with a look at the postwar lives of some of the officers who served the regiment during the war.
