True Psycological Perspective in a Work Environment.......1999-04-17

This book is not just useful in the workplace. It can be applied to any environment. Throgh this book I truly gained a much better understanding of my professional colleages and even of my approach to them. This book can definetely help you to become a better leader. The book offers steps to aid in use after it reveals data about personality types. The book is somewhat long drawn but quite understandable. You will definetely get the point. This is the type of book that should be given to Coaches, Team-Captains, Teachers and anyone who has to deal with large groups of people and different personalities.

Book Description

A complete guide to selection and use of the best reagents for a wide range of transformations

This book is the updated and expanded Second Edition of Jacqueline Seyden-Penne's practical guide to selection of reducing reagents in organic synthesis. It is an indispensable working resource for organic synthetic chemists-the only reference focusing exclusively on aluminohydrides and borohydrides and their derivatives.

Simple to use, it is organized according to specific reductions so that chemists can more easily match the best reagent to a given transformation. Throughout, Dr. Seyden-Penne emphasizes four crucial categories: compatibility, possibilities for partial reduction, the regio- and stereoselectivity of reductions that are altered or controlled by neighboring groups, and asymmetric reductions.

Extremely well-referenced, Reductions by the Alumino- and Borohydrides in Organic Synthesis provides the most up-to-date, detailed coverage of:
* Successful techniques for performing highly selective reductions
* Chemo-, regio-, stereo-, and enantioselective reductions of both simple and complex compounds
* Best methods for obtaining the main functional groups by hydridereduction, provided in quick-reference tabular form
* New and more selective reagents developed within the last five years
* Experimental conditions, including solvent and temperature, and yields for most cases described.

Book Description

As part of the SFI series, this book presents the most up-to-date research in the study of human and primate societies, presenting recent advances in software and algorithms for modeling societies. It also addresses case studies that have applied agent-based modeling approaches in archaeology, cultural anthropology, primatology, and sociology. Many things set this book apart from any other on modeling in the social sciences, including the emphasis on small-scale societies and the attempts to maximize realism in the modeling efforts applied to social problems and questions. It is an ideal book for professionals in archaeology or cultural anthropology as well as a valuable tool for those studying primatology or computer science.

classic collection of feminist writings

Customer Reviews:

A classic, ground-breaking feminist of color anthology!.......2006-08-10

This is such an important anthology of writings by radical women of color on the politics of race, gender, class and sexual orientation. Though it is more than two decades old, the essays and poetry are still ispirational and relevant. Indeed, I strongly feel that this is a book that every feminist should read. That said, I am utterly baffled by how difficult it is to obtain. Could it really be out of print? If so, I hope (hint, hint) that some progressive publishing company like AK Press, South End Press, or Seal re-prints it. I would hate to think of it disappearing into the dustbin of obscurity.

Should be On Every Feminist Bookshelf, in Every Library........2005-11-23

Count yourself lucky if you are able to find a copy of the 3rd Edition. It is extremely rare and very hard to find. If you can't find it though, buy the 1st or 2nd Editions.

This is undoubtedly one of the most influential, groundbreaking, and important books ever to come from "Second Wave" feminist thought. Although it has been over 20 years since it was originally published, it still retains its edginess and thought-provoking qualities.

The book, which features the writings of Asian, Latin, African, and Native American women was also groundbreaking in that many of the women are lesbians and/or from working class backgrounds. (Although lesbian and/or working class anthologies are unsual now, it was significant back in 1981.)

Writers include Audre Lorde, Pat Parker, Barbara Smith, Anzaldua, Moraga, Barbara Cameron, and Aurora Levins Morales.

Essays, poems, short stories, creative and autobiographical pieces are the basis for this book. Although it is best known for confronting racism within and outside of the Women's Movement, the book also examines:

* the roots of the authors' radical politics
* theory vs. real life
* culture, class, and homophobia
* on being an ethic writer/artist
* visions for a better future

The 3rd Edition also contains pictures of art and sculpture by radical women of color artists circa late 1970s-early 1980s. These add more layers and depth to the book as the artists' works were chosen to compliment the writings. All 3 Editions (but especially the 3rd) contain an excellent bibliography for the reader who is further interested in reading more about women of color feminism.

Other books of interest (There are many, many good books by women of color feminists, these are just a few examples):

**** ~Home Girls: A Black Feminist Anthology~ edited by Barbara Smith
**** ~A Gathering of Spirit: Writing and Art by North American Indian Women~ edited by Beth Brant
**** ~Making Waves: An Anthology of Writings by and About Asian Amerian Women~ edited by Asian Women United of California
**** ~Chicana Lesbians: The Girls Our Mothers Warned Us About~ edited by Carla Trujillo.

The late Anzaldua and AnaLouise Keatings also edited a sequel/daughter anthology to TBCMB It is called THIS BRIDGE CALLED MY HOME (2002). Lovers of the original -Bridge- book will be intrigued by how the follow-up anthology expands, critiques, and examines the issues found in TBCMB.

Very important collection.......2001-04-25

Oh my goodness!! This is an incredible ground-breaking book of awareness and consciousness. It was a must-read for anyone coming of age in the 1980's and it is still relevant today. I came on line to purchase it for a friend who had never seen it, and I am in shock that it is out of print, or even just out of stock (it's unclear which). The paperback is selling on ZBooks for $45. I'm confounded.

Hey I know this guy.......2006-12-07

I also enjoyed reading Nine-O Adam. It was funny and serious as well. The storytelling was very well done. I lived on 125th St. in South Ozone Park in the 70's so some of his story was pretty close to home...literally. I might even be that friend he called for the day Elvis died.

A few of us managed to avoid prison.......2006-02-27

I grew up with the author. We had our ups and downs but I'm very happy for him. I was struck by the similarities in which some things in our lives turned out. I'm currently in Iraq and I liked his war stories both about Iraq and Queens. Congratulations Adam!

California Book Worm.......2004-03-29

One of the better cop books I have read in awhile. It is definitely not a "me, me, me" book if you know what I mean. He doesn't mind a joke at his expense. Ironically I had just finished reading 'Jarhead' when I started 'Nine-O Adam'and the two shared some of the same experiences on the same soil. It is a very 'good' book seeing it is his first book. Some of the grammar is off, but I see his point in writing a 'story' instead of writing a 'book'. It is definetley worth reading.

Nine O Adam.......2004-03-25

An excellent book. A former NYPD Officer chronicles his life and his dreams from the Military to the NYPD and finally, LAPD. The book includes some great stories about the authors life and I especially enjoyed the stories about his experiences in the NYPD.
A must read for all law enforcement Officers.
