    Book Description

    For many years up until 1997, Korea was widely seen in economic and financial circles as something of a miracle. The financial crisis that Korea experienced then did much to set its economy back, but by 2001 it was still the 13th largest economy in terms of GDP in the world.
    This enticing collection, with contributions from experts with an impressive knowledge of Korea and its economy, charts not only the well documented causes of the crisis, but more importantly, its response and recovery from it. With an admirable scholarly rigour, the book covers such topics as:
    *the origin and evolution of the Korean economic system and its special factors including chaebols
    *Korean industries since the crisis
    *What happened to the money after the capital flight of the crisis and did the USA benefit?
    The Korean Economy at the Crossroads is intended and recommended not only for students and academics involved in international finance, economics and Asian studies, but also for the business leaders and policy makers who can draw lessons from the books important analyses.

    5 out of 5 stars Very Insightful-Great Read For Women of All Stages & Ages.......2001-04-04

    I was very impressed by the women in this book, and more importantly, the issues they addressed. Trying to balance personal and professional lives is never easy, and several of the women had great pieces of advice on doing just this. Although there is never a way to truly "have everything," this book explores some very intriguing women and provides some very useful career advice.

      1 out of 5 stars This is not a book.......1999-06-21

      They did not even take the time to print this with a Laser printer, instead they used some form of inkjet. The photocopied pages are just a bunch of forms compiled together without commentary. Don't buy this book.(Some one at Amazon should start looking at books to verify that they pass the standard of a book, this is the second kinko's job i have purchased.)

      1 out of 5 stars A Total Ripoff.......1999-04-11

      This book isn't a book at all. The only original words by the author are a few terse pages at the beginning in which he repeats various platitudes about raising money. The entire 'book' is just poor quality reproductions of standard forms that can be found on the Internet, or obtained for free from various sources. When you consider the amount of effort required to 'write' this book with some of the truly solid efforts on the market, it's a crime that this publisher and book are on the market. Amazon should pull this one immediately. Don't waste your money like I did.

      1 out of 5 stars an absolutely awful book and a complete waste of money.......1999-04-10

      Except for a practically worthless 4 page introductory section and a useless membership directory, this book consists of standard forms, which are available online and free anyway. Much better explanatory information is available online from a number of sources. Don't waste your money like I did! I have purchased dozens of books from Amazon, and this is the only one I have regretted.

        I got this book since I have just began to teach English to students of Hospitality and Culinary Arts Management. I am very pleased with it because it covers -in a simple, practical and modern way- almost all the areas that these students have to explore during their years of study.

                            4 out of 5 stars Tour the Rouge.......2003-10-06

                            I work at this plant. And I have found this book to be an excellent portal to the past history of this still vital complex.

                            When Henry Ford opened the Rouge it was the largest industrial complex in the world. He had the notion of gathering all of the resources needed to produce his vehicles in the most efficent manner. With a showcase powerhouse, coke ovens, blast furnaces, foundries, open hearth ovens, state of the art assembly lines and a workforce that would peak at 100,000 in its prime, the Rouge had the ability to produce every part of the Model A save the battery. From the raw ores to the finished product the time it took to produce the vehicle was under 24 hours.

                            The book is filled with an excellent array of pictures of the plant in its prime, and is a must for those people who want the opportunity to be able to see the house that Henry built.

                            From his showcase powerhouse to the heat of the blast furnaces. And the ship building facilities to the auto assembly lines this is a book for any person who is interested in reliving the complex's past.
