Tuttle Review.......2006-11-08

The "60-Minute Estate planner" does the best job I've seen of being comprehensive, and yet easy to read at the same time. The graphic flow charts with their accompanying tables are a great aid to understanding. Even if you're not planning your estate this book is important to read. The book deepens your appreciation of how important it is for the Congress to repeal federal death taxes.

Book Description

The book for people who aren't investment specialists, but want to invest like a Wall Street whiz kid.

The average person collects bits and pieces of information about investing--a company that's doing well today, an industry on the upswing. But that's not enough in the complex, hyperspeed world of investment today. That's why the 60 Minute Investment Planner is a perfect place to start--a place where readers can go to draft an investment plan themselves, instead of spending countless hours with a high-priced financial advisor.

Written by a Wall Street professional at one of America's leading investment firms, the 60 Minute Investment Planner gives readers the tools they need to draw up their personal investment profile. After completing an easy, step-by-step outline, readers are guided through a detailed but manageable summary of the investment options available. By the end, even the most financially bewildered can recognize just the combination of stocks, bonds, money market and mutual funds, and advanced equities they need. A handy series of worksheets and questionnaires throughout the book insures that when readers do go to financial advisors, they arrive with a clear idea of what they want to do with their money.

A must for airline buffs.......1998-11-21

As a former American Airlines employee, I enjoyed having this book on hand during a recent trip. It had lots of fun facts and figures. I would have liked more details about aircraft, service entry dates, etc. Book obviously was produced with the help of the company so there was little negative info. Should have at least mentioned major incidents.

Book Description

The bequest of a set of notebooks, written 250 years ago by the Reverend Thomas Bayes set in motion a chain of events that would transform the world and lead to the method for calculating human decision making. The implications are staggering. Many corporations possess vast quantities of data on customers—obtained through techniques such as "cookies" and loyalty cards—without their knowledge. Taking all this information, and employing Bayesian theory, allows specific targeting, and influencing, of customers. On the Web, search engines can now predict what we are looking for. The implications for technology are only the beginning. Bayes strikes at the heart of how we make decisions. From evidence in court to the interpretation of medical tests, Bayesian theory is creeping into all our decisions. There are already warnings from those who fear the infiltration will result in technology directing our lives and our future. While some counter that Bayesianism will empower individuals and make technology more human-centered. The Reverend's Logic reveals one of the most important aspects of twenty-first century society—how much of our decision making is being replicated and influenced by computers. At the same time we are being forced to address fundamental questions about how we think. Dunbar explains in non-technical terms how Bayes is already shaping our lives, how it works and traces where it came from—to Bayes himself and the origin of our future.
