Clear, concise, and to the point. This little book is the word on how nonprofits can comply with SarBox.

Book Description

Accelerated degradation of soils and surface waters produce increasing problems in many parts of the world. Within this context, the book addresses the topic Application of Physically Based Soil Erosion Models in order to present some essential tools for improving land-use strategies and conservation measures. Over the last 20 years, the need for more accurate assessments of soil losses and sediment yields has led to the development of some highly complex, process-based soil erosion models. In 14 papers, specialists from 5 European countries, the USA and Brazil report on practical applications of these models and give insight into the latest developments. This book will help to implement state-of-the-art soil erosion prediction technologies within soil and water conservation planning and assessment. Hence, the book should be of special interest to agricultural and environmental engineers, hydrologists, soil scientists and geoscientists.

Great Sample Business Plans.......2007-05-02

Pleasant Surprise.......2000-03-28

When you are in marketing, you have to stay on top of every aspect all of the time. So many business/marketing plan books are either not complete, current, too technical or not technical enough! I took this book out from my local library, and I like it so much, I am purchasing it. I find it easy to read -- the layout is wonderful including special tip boxes throughout that address everything from plan pitfalls to buzzwords. (One does need to learn the current lingo after all -- it is changing so fast.) There are also solutions to basic questions like: Should I go for venture capital or look for strategic partnerships? Top all this off with a helpful listing of Small-Business Friendly Banks. Like I said, this book is a pleasant surprise.

From the supplier: Tips on handling customer complaints are suggested. A training program on the topic was conducted by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association. The program highlighted the ways in which people handle stressful events such as an unexpected bill increases or a power outage, and outlined techniques on how to diagnose and deal with their reactions. Acceptance of stressful events typically proceed in stages: shock, denial, guilt, projection, rationalization, integration and final acceptance. It is important to remember that different people progress from one stage to the other with varying speeds and intensities. Only in the last two stages are people willing to discuss and consider rational solutions to a problem. A professional can only assist the customer in getting through the previous five stages.

Book Description

You are sitting down with family and friends in a supposedly smart restaurant - and the food is disgusting. What do you do when the waiter asks if everything is ok? Like the majority of the population, you probably half-smile and mumble something acquiescent. Wrong! You should always complain and always explain! A complaint without explanation is worthless. Ranting and raving is bad; controlled complaining is good. Don't just walk away, let the people who caused that feeling know why. In all cases you stand to gain a lot more than ranting, or not saying anything at all.

Absolutely the best summary on IMF/WB Policies.......2003-10-05

This short but powerful book provides the best and most concise review of the disastrous policies that have been developed by the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. Bello traces the origins of structural adjustment programs and then follows their effects into countries around the world.

Although originally published in 1994, the material is more relavent than ever. A MUST READ.

Best short work on the role of the IMF in global misery.......2000-05-22

Bello provides a clear, concise and well evidenced argument that the structural adjustment programs of the IMF and World bank have sunk the countries of the global south into deeper and deeper debt and impovereshment. Bello sets this argument in the historical frame of the northern backlash against the rising economic power of the south. He also links the economic philosophy behind adjustment to the widening prosperity gap and falling real wages in the north.
