From the supplier: The amended Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) mandates the preparation of disclosure and authorization forms instead of the traditional authorizations included in job applications. The law, enacted by Congress to increase consumer access to credit reports, requires employers to use certification and adverse action forms. The Federal Trade Commission has published guidelines explaining the duties of employers under the new FCRA. Employers who fail to comply with the requirements will get the appropriate penalties.

Great book, few minor issues (make that more than few).......2004-11-06

As someone planning to start a magazine, I found that this is one of the better magazine start-up books out there, and it is doubly informative considering Mr.Husni is the leading expert in the field of magazines. He brings to the book a sense of being heavily involved in the industry.

However, the book was excellently detailed in some areas while being skimpy in others.

He provides great detail about the research process, evaluating competition, developing a plan, and designing the magazine layouts etc.

Each chapter hits on one of these above topics(and more) individually in about 12 chapters. At the end of each chapter is a magazine profile: a tale from the trenches interview with a start-up magazine founder about how they started the mag and the problems they had to face. This is interesting as it provides some details about the process from a newcomer point of view.

This is where the payload of information ends though. While Mr.Magazine gives us information about the theory part of the magazine development process, he doesn't give much info about the business side of things. Things like how to find and evaluate printers, how to drum up investors, what associations/organizations to network with, what media outlets to contact, etc.

In other words, he's big on research and development, but not real world business. It was only when I looked at his bio did I realize he's a professor, which explains his semi-dissociation from the nitty-gritty business world.

The only other complaint I have about the book is the magazine interviews. Don't get me wrong, they are very inspiring and I've even been tempted to subscribe to a few to understand the inner workings of success. However, after a few of these interviews they all start sounding similar...there are about 12 interviews and Mr.Husni seems to ask the same questions to all of them.

To sum it up, this book has value in parts....just don't expect to be an expert by the end of it.

P.S...Oh and a somewhat disturbing note about the magazines profiled: they're supposed to be the success stories of the ones that survived the 95% death rate. From the sound of the interviews they're the next big Atlantic Monthly, George, etc.

However, in the process of researching these magazines (I was trying to see how big they grew since the time this book was published) I found that 3 out of the 5 mags I looked at became recently defunct. Now there's some inspiration for you people!!! Instant deflation aside, I'm going to go now and check the rest of the list to determine just how depressed I should be....and whether I should kill my magazine brainchild once and for all.

Excelent.......2003-06-21

Devided half theory and half real stories it is perfect for starters in the magazine publishing business. An accent to statistical information on magazine performence makes evidence of all statements of the author. I am sure he is an industry guru. Buy the book it is neccessary for your success.

Quick read and lots of hands on advice = success........2003-05-07

I found the interviews of people who have started magazines to be helpful. I do hope, however, that the next edition includes an interview with Jerome Belanger (founder of Countryside & Small Stock Journal) and with John Shuttleworth (founder of Mother Earth News.

I have previously communicated with both and found them to be entertaining when discussing what they did right and what went wrong while launching their great publications. Since Samir discusses how the sale of Mother Earth News and its decay thereafter, the interview with Shuttleworth should be enormously helpful to the entrepreneur dreaming of publishing a magazine.

Still, this book is one of three I will keep stocked on my reference shelf in the event that I launch a magazine.

The book is an excellent companion to How To Start A Magazine by James Kobak and to Starting & Running A Successful Newsletter or Magazine by Cheryl Woodard.

Not much here..........2002-11-21

With respect to the other reviews, and to the author, I did not get much out of this book. Some of the stories of those who have started their own magazines were really sophmoric and added little to the body of knowledge needed to tackle such an enormous task.

I found Cheryl Woodard's book far more detailed, informative and cautionary.

Stands Apart From The Rest!.......2001-06-01

Although we are familiar with book publishing, we needed information regarding our upcoming magazine startup. I reviewed six books on the subject.

The only one not returned was, "Launch Your Own Magazine."

I was looking for the nuts and bolts philosophy of this industry not back-patting and fluff. This magazine provided solid and useable information.

The interviews, room for notes and easy writing style of Dr Husni made my research pleasant and interesting. His checklist at the end of the book was the cherry on a very tasty book.

Bravo for placing information sharing above self.

Book Description

This interdisciplinary volume sheds much needed light on the relationship between national policies, regional integration patterns and the wider global setting. It covers regional patterns in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Individual chapters focus on topics ranging from industrial or financial policies to social welfare regimes, as well as broader assessments and comparisons of regional arrangements in a global context. The chapters point to the diversity of regional patterns in the world economy and the continuing importance of national regulatory structures, yet they also point to the common pressures of globalization felt by all, especially in the domain of capital markets. With broad coverage and clear but sophisticated analysis this book will be vital reading to all those seeking to clarify their understanding of the contemporary regional/global paradox.

Global Economis Integration.......2000-04-01

As a student of International Integration, I found this book very interesting and informative in describing the links and the commonality between different global integration processes. For sure after reading the combined essays supporters of integration will reconsider their views on the subject. Is integration a good process? Does it take away from a nations national and political sovereignty? Excellent book I recommend it highly
