Not Bad.......2000-04-25

May be too detailed for normal attorneys. Good use of real world examples but goes too quickly into higher level discussions. Could use a chapter or two on the fundamentals. Would recommend for beginning finance attorneys or "deal makers".

Essential reading for all employers........2000-05-04

Richard Fein's 101 Hiring Mistakes Employers Make covers the basic mistakes employers make; from not adequately conducting reference checks to relying too much on technology to make decisions. Especially valuable here are the case history examples pointing out just where the hiring process made assumptions without adequate probing.

Great read for anyone involved in hiring!.......2000-04-01

Richard Fein, who's written a number of helpful books for the career seeker, has proven his versatility with this excellent resource for employers.

I enjoyed reading through the well-organized mistakes to avoid, which describe real-life mistakes... the lessons learned.. and to avoid making them. Fein emphasizes the importance of thorough background checks, provides helpful hints for reducing the time to hire without reducing the quality of candidates, creative ideas for recruiting, remembering your hiring procedures as a good guideline (with the understanding that they can be improved, successfully interviewing candidates, and smoothly transitioning new hires.

This book is also helpful for job seekers in that it shows you the red flags that employers look for!

A Practical Book and a Good Read.......2000-02-17

101 Hiring Mistakes Employers Make ... and How to Avoid Them is a quick, easy read that provides something employers can use: Sound advice that is clear, to the point and of practical importance. Learning from the mistakes of others is an effective way to save time, money and aggravation.

The nine chapters include ways to avoid the pitfalls of time pressure and ways to check references in an environment that is reluctant to provide them. There are good tips on making the relationship between HR and hiring managers more productive.

I recommend it to you.

Book Description

As Sweet As It Gets: A Diabetic's Story begins with the onset of diabetes at age eighteen and chronicles the ever-present effects of the condition on ordinary life experiences. Realistic and thought-provoking, this first-person account expresses the emotional and mental effects of the disease, which has impacted every aspect of the author's existence for over 30 years. Robert W. Thompson, Jr. shares his interpersonal relationships such as marriage and fatherhood, and the premature death of four individuals: a brother killed in a car accident at age 22, cousin Greg who suffered from schizophrenia and died at 34, a close friend who succumbed to emphysema, and a former roommate who died during a liver transplant operation. Given their own set of obstacles, choices and life experiences, any reader can relate to Thompson's story of survival.

Book Description

Bruce King towers over the political landscape of New Mexico in the last half of the twentieth century. Born the son of a homesteader in the tiny Santa Fe County farm-and-ranch community of Stanley, King decided in seventh grade to be governor of New Mexico. The story of how he accomplished that goal--three times!--plays out against the tremendous transformations occurring in the society, culture, politics, and business of New Mexico since World War II.

When King won his first Santa Fe County Commission seat in 1954 at age 29, running for office was a down-home affair. Politics was personal. But as he served in office and climbed the political ladder toward his lifelong ambition, New Mexico changed. The state's population shifted away from the rural communities to the rapidly expanding cities, while the once-dominant agricultural interests in the legislature yielded to the emerging urban voting blocs. Meanwhile, the challenges of governing grew ever more complex. King's well-recognized skills of mediation and conciliation helped him lead the state through a time of often-bewildering change.

This book is rich with colorful stories as King recalls the major events of his career and conveys the human side of campaigning, governing, political deal-making, and sparring with the press. He also talks about his friendships and encounters with many of the leading national and state political figures of our time, including President Bill Clinton, President Ronald Reagan, President Jimmy Carter, Senator Pete Domenici, and Energy Secretary Bill Richardson.

A classic tale of political intuitions spiced by New Mexico flavor as unique as Hatch green chile, Cowboy in the Roundhouse is lively reading. As famed mystery writer Tony Hillerman writes in his introduction to the book, "While I count myself among the many who wanted Bruce King to write an autobiography, I doubt if any of us had much hope he'd get around to doing it. Now he has and it's even better than we'd expected."

Charles Poling is a journalist and author who struggles to remember a time when Bruce King was not governor. Poling writes fiction and true stories about the history, business, politics and daily life of New Mexico. He currently makes his home in Placitas, where the past, present, and future blend together and resonate with the pecular harmony and dissonance known as New Mexico.

Customer Reviews:

a political whitewash.......2006-09-16

I was more than a little disapointed in this far less than candid politicaql biography. One sided vauge and looking at the political world of New Mexico with very partisan Rose colered glasses is just the bgegining of my complaints about this dull manuscript. King saves much of his venmon for liberal Republican former Gov. David Cargo. He white wases his problems with corrupt Democrat Governors Jerry Apodaca and Toney Anaya. He has no recolecxtion abou the stolen election of 1978 when he and Bill Richardson ordered the cotter pins cut on voting machines in the North East heights of Albuquerque and the paper ballots detained at the state fair grounds. He does not pretend that Joe Skeen was his "friend".He does not mention the 1980 debackle of trying to get his less than compentat nephew David King anoointed to the seat of the late Harold Runnels in Congress.He was the bigggeswt supporter of the patron system and clains he was aginst it.He was an obsticle to progress and quarrlled with the conservative coalition during his secound term and a imcompentat joke during his 3rd and last term.A bad bio from a miserable Governor only for his fellow partisan Democrats.

A New Mexico Classic.......1999-12-02

This book is a wonderful historical record of New Mexico politics in the 20th Century. Filled with insightful anecdotes and provoking commentary. Bruce King is a very important figure in N.M. It's scary to think that he almost didn't write this book. I highly recommend.

Book Description

Japanese foreign direct investment has played a leading role in Asian economies for more than two decades. This book, describing the changing industrial dynamics after the Asian currency crisis in 1997, focuses on corporate strategies of Japanese automobile and electronics companies in Asian nations, with detailed analysis of management issues and strategies from the viewpoint of both the home economy and the recipient host economies. Among the cases presented are the global restructuring of the Korean automobile industry and the transfer of automotive technology to China via Taiwan. Other studies, from the electronics industry, look at production sites in Malaysia, backward integration in Singapore, and forward integration in Hong Kong. The contributions of specialists from Asia, Europe, and the United States collected here envision an ongoing process of globalization and provide valuable perspective and background for business management and East Asian studies.
