Great Start for Teaching Soft Skills.......2007-01-03

This book is aimed primarily at teaching employees better soft skills and the activities work very well for groups of this kind. However, until the concept of "working together" is actually known by the participants, only a few of the activities can be used for students who are facing "entering the working world."

Book Description

The training, employment, and career movement of doctors is of fundamental concern to all those working in and administering the National Health Service and private medicine within Britain and around the world. Doctors' Careers makes available to a wide readership the results of a comprehensive survey of medical choices and career progress of doctors qualifying from British medical schools during the decade from 1974-1983. The first survey of its kind, it records the aspirations, feelings, and experiences of a large group of doctors during a time of considerable change in emigration, training for general practice, and the position of women doctors.

Topics dealt with include the reasons for choosing and changing careers within medicine, postgraduate qualifications, internal migration of doctors within the U.K., aspects of specialties such as medicine, surgery, psychiatry, and anaesthetics, and the personal opinions of doctors regarding their training and career problems. This studywill be of interest to doctors, educators, health service planners, and social scientists in many countries where similar problems and experiences are encountered.

Book Description

The impact of large radio telescopes on the progress of astronomical research in the past, present and future is the subject of twelve essays, of interest to both the layman and the professional astronomer. Current research in different fields and visions of what may be achieved with future observational possibilities are found next to contributions containing historical notes on Dutch radio astronomy and the scientific highlights of a quarter-century's work with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope. Major upgrades in progress will soon turn the WSRT into a more powerful and significantly more versatile instrument. Looking further ahead, plans for a new-generation telescope, a Square-Kilometer- Array, promise enormous advances in many areas of astronomy, among them research on pulsars, on gas in the early universe and in cosmology.

Book Description

Molecular Orbital Calculations for Biological Systems is a hands-on guide to computational quantum chemistry and its applications in organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology. With improvements in software, molecular modeling techniques are now becoming widely available; they are increasingly used to complement experimental results, saving significant amounts of lab time. Common applications include pharmaceutical research and development; for example, ab initio and semi-empirical methods are playing important roles in peptide investigations and in drug design. The opening chapters provide an introduction for the non-quantum chemist to the basic quantum chemistry methods, ab initio, semi-empirical, and density functionals, as well as to one of the main families of computer programs, the Gaussian series. The second part then describes current research which applies quantum chemistry methods to such biological systems as amino acids, peptides, and anti-cancer drugs. Throughout the authors seek to encourage biochemists to discover aspects of their own research which might benefit from computational work. They also show that the methods are accessible to researchers from a wide range of mathematical backgrounds. Combining concise introductions with practical advice, this volume will be an invaluable tool for research on biological systems.

Differential Games.......2001-03-26

This is the original book on differential games. It is as relevant today as when it was written nearly 40 years ago. The book introduces all the main concepts and equations in differential games. This is achieved without recourse to heavy theorems or proofs. A central feature is the use of many and varied examples of differential games; the homoicidal chauffeur, wars of attrition, pursuit with a rocket, etc. These bring the whole field alive with potential. Another element is the use of geometry and pictures to describe game evolution. This book is a must for anyone interested in modern autonomous systems.

M. Coleman, Miller Place NY.......2006-11-28

.Hack//AI Buster is the first of the two part novels in the large franchise .Hack. The book begins with Albireo, a solo adventurer in the Massively Multiplayer Online game "The World. Lycoris, a bug in the system, is being perused by the Cobalt Knights, a group of selected players sought out to fix bugs in the game what cannot be simply deleted.

Shortly after escaping the Cobalt Knights, Lycoris meets up with Albireo, in which Albireo helps her regain her sight, hearing, and ability to speak which have all been scattered throughout The World. He meets ups and befriends a few bunch, such as Balmung and Orca, a group of Swordmaster adventurers and Hokuto, a novice female Wavemaster.

This book contains epic battles and surprising plot twists, and will entertain any .Hack fan. Be sure to read .Hack//AI Buster 2, and thanks for reading.

younger audience.......2006-10-24

I'm a big fan of the .hack franchise, and this book (along with the "Legend of the Twilight" series) were among my least favorite, perhaps because they targeted a much younger audience. Big fans will still want it because it includes a description of "The One Sin," an event frequently referred to elsewhere in the series; and if you're younger, it's not a bad starting point to get into the franchise.

Casual fans might want to skip this, though, and go straight for the second "AI Buster" book, which is a collection of short stories. (This is a single long story.)

Note that this is NOT manga, it is a text story.

Scion's Say.......2006-10-19

Didn't provide to intensity and focus I came to expect from the anime, but it is alright for being what it is - an attempt to make more money off the fans of the .hack// franchise. I don't know if this book utterly lost it's charm after the translation or if it never had any at all, but like the .hack//Another Birth series is has a shoddy narrative - although I must admit it was better than any of the Another Birth series, so I am forced to give it a 4/5.

Worth my money.......2006-05-22

I didn't know what to expect when I bought this book, i really thought it was a manga. But when it wasn't i still wanted to see what it was about. This book made me want to buy any other volume that comes out like this. Its very good and I would reread it anytime, this book gives a new meaning to adventure.

A great prequel to the .hack story........2005-10-07

This novel is a prequel to the .hack anime, games, and manga. It is set shortly before the anime, Sign, and tells the story of Albireo, a player in very popular online role-playing game The World, and the mysterious AI girl he encounters in a dungeon.

Albireo is a solo adventurer in The World -- he is proud to have gotten his character to a high level playing on his own. One day while playing the game, he encounters a silent little girl in red, Lycoris, who is a NPC (non-player character, or AI). Meeting her activates an event that he is determined to finish. Shortly after, he runs into an annoying newbie player, Hokuto, who knows nothing about the right way to play the game. Alibreo is desperate to get rid of Hokuto, but she blackmails him into playing with her. So Albireo is forced to try to complete the Lycoris event with annoying Hokuto following him around. Along the way he uncovers some surprising truths about how The World really works.

As a fan of the other .hack stories (the games, animes, and manga), I was very glad to see this novel translated into English. It gives a more detailed backstory for the creation of The World and helps set the scene for the events that take place in the later stories. I'd highly recommend this novel to all .hack fans, and if you're new to The World, this is a great book to start with.

Book Description

Lloyd Kramer offers a new interpretation of the cultural and political significance of the career of the Marquis de Lafayette, which spanned the American Revolution, the French Revolutions of 1789 and 1830, and the Polish Uprising of 1830-31. Moving beyond traditional biography, Kramer traces the wide-ranging influence of Lafayette's public and personal life, including his contributions to the emergence of nationalist ideologies in Europe and America, his extensive connections with liberal political theorists, and his close friendships with prominent writers, many of them women. Kramer places Lafayette on the cusp of the two worlds of America and France, politics and literature, the Enlightenment and the Romantic movement, public affairs and private life, revolution and nationalism, and men and women. He argues that Lafayette's experiences reveal how public figures can symbolize the aspirations of a society as a whole, and he stresses Lafayette's important role in a cultural network of contemporaries that included Germaine de Sta`l, Benjamin Constant, Frances Wright, James Fenimore Cooper, and Alexis de Tocqueville.

This book brings the globalist conspiracy into focus 30 years after the fact!.......2006-12-30

The Rockefeller File was written over thirty years ago but so much of what this book claimed that the global elite have in store for the world has come to pass and proven to be true that it really makes your jaw drop.

One example are plans for something along the lines of the European Union, NAFTA, and North American Union being implemented, which has all of course come to pass. Another is the turning of communist China into a slave plantation for the big money capitalists of the world at the expense of the American manufacturing base and worker. People seem to forget all about the Rockefeller mafia sending their capo Kissinger, along with one of their own, Nelson Rockefeller, and the lackey Nixon as a front, over there in the 1970's to get the ball rolling. There is a quote in this book from David Rockefeller where he drools like a starving dog over the disposable and enslavable labor pool that exists in China that really says it all.

Another thing that most people don't know about is the Rockefellers control of the Standard Oil group which includes under their umbrella Exxon, Chevron, Phillips, Amoco, Marathon, BP and others. They also control major American banks like Chase Manhattan, and others. They founded the Trilateral Commision and (through Mandell House) the CFR. They set up fake "philantropist" foundations to fund organizations and causes that make them more money and further their globalist agenda as well as put up money for shills that feign opposition (Chomsky, Buchanan, Nader, Moore, various environmental groups, etc) but really subvert any real resistance to the new world order agenda. They and other uber capitalists even had a huge hand in funding the Bolshevik revolution in Russia and perpetrated the whole "cold war" hoax. I really could go on and on but I'll just leave you with those as a few examples. I mean forget about any "freemasons", "zionists", "jesuits" etc type of theories as to who is really pulling the strings. Just follow the money trail and you'll see that its the Rockefellers and a few other oligarchical families and cabals that are the top of the food chain in creating this sick destructive new world order that is a conspiracy against ALL people, cultures and races.

I had always been leery of Allen and his work because of his close association with the John Birch Society (I think its open to debate but a lot of evidence points in the direction of the JBS being a shill/controlled opposition organization) but this book helped bring a lot of things into focus for me as far as deciphering the globalist agenda/conspiracy so I have new found respect for the man. Gary Allen should be held in high regard along with Antony Sutton and Eustace Mullins as people who did the leg work that exposed much about the new world order conspiracy that other writers are selling books and riding the coattails of.

Ode to Gary Allen (1929-87), his best work, despite his wrongful slap at JFK.......2006-06-29

Gary Allen (see: Dave McCalden's Revisionist
Newsletters, 1981-1990) lost a leg to diabetes
in 1986 and died one year later. Too bad he
didn't find out how corrupt the John Birch So-
ciety (Masons in hierarchy) was before he died,
it hurt some views of his credibility. Nonethe-
less, aside from the books by the late Emanuel
Josephson (1910-1974), Allen did more research
into the criminal Rockefeller family than any-
body. And very good work, too. His cassette
tapes are still available from many Patriotic
co.s out there: Des Griffin, et, al. Highly
recommended, especially after the trash 'Pub-
lic TV exoneration of these weirdos! Other
Allen works are very good as well!

The Rockefeller File.......2005-09-09

I am still reading this book (about 60% complete.) I must admit that it is very enlightening and it helps explain who is really controlling our Government.

Powerful, Informative Exposé Of The Rockefeller Dynasty.......2005-02-26

Investigative writer Gary Allen pulls the covers off one of the best-kept secrets in America: The truth behind the Rockefeller family dynasty. Allen provides a plethora of information illustrating the enormous power and influence this one family of multi-millionaires possesses. Listed are various corporations, industries, banks, and media companies either controlled or owned by the Rockefeller clan. Additionally, the author delves into some of the intricacies of the little known Council on Foreign Relations. Although the data here is a bit dated (corporate names and financial institutions have changed since 1976), the ideology conveyed though Allen's writing remains intriguing and enlightening. This book is a very good place to begin one's exploration of the New World Order's history and objectives, as well as the mindset and intentions of the super-rich and powerful in today's world.

One of the better of its type.......2001-09-05

... Gary Allen was one of the better writers working in the genre of the paranoid and, even if his conclusions don't always hold up, one can't deny that he does a very good job of compiling and presenting his evidence. While The Rockefeller File doesn't quite match up to Allen's classic None Dare Call It Conspiracy, its a compelling presentation of a world view that many dismiss with ridicule without really giving it fair consideration beforehand.

This book I would recommend to anyone who is truly curious about the ideas behind the theories of those who the media dismisses as "anti-government extremists." Whether you agree with them or not, its hard to deny that they're a group who are often held up as easy targets by liberals. They're the scapegoats of modern America and deserve at least a chance to state their views without being shouted down in fits of moral indignation. The Rockefeller File presents one of their better cases. Read this book, consider the evidence and conclusions within, and then decide for yourself. Either disagree like me or agree like thousands of others, but at least give them a fair hearing.
