Customer Reviews:
Simplistic simplistic simplistic!!!.......2006-05-10
I found Bruce's book to be a very simplistic approach to a perceived complex issue!! He captures Thoreau's way of thinking..Simplify, simplify, simplify!!! His words literally jumped off the pages to resonate within my soul! Great job! When's the next book??
A Must Read!.......2005-05-24
Wow - It's not often that a book motivates me so much that I write an online review and tell virtually everyone I know to buy it. An easy read, Bruce Garrabrandt offers a profound view of human nature in a way that no one has done before. The Power of Having Desire will, in short order, become a staple for college grads as well as those who need to regroup and get themselves out of a rut. Stop wasting time and go buy this book!
Great truths written in easy to read & interesting format.......2004-12-17
This book is easy to read, very interesting and filled with great truths on the subject of how to succeed. I am an avid reader of Zigler, Maxwell, Gerber, Collins, etc. and personally do motivational speaking. I plan to use this book as part of my next seminar and have gotten permission from the author to do so. Anyone interested in self improvement and achieving success should read this book. It is filled with great ideas and takes away the excuses we often use to rationalize our status in life. Bruce has a very easy to read style of writing and shares many wonderful examples of real life successes. I studied the book as I read it. I could hardly put it down until I finished reading it.
The Power of Having Desire.......2004-08-24
This book is as entertaining and enjoyable as it is enlightening. The opportunity to 'peek' into the lives of so many individuals, famous and not-so-famous, who share the common thread of desire, perseverance and success is a truly unique yet contagious way to discover your own desire.
Will inspire anyone to take action.......2004-07-28
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wishes to start any endeavor or just needs a boost of confidence. I wish this book was available back when I was in college! Throughout parts of the book Bruce highlights the successes of many people who we tend to forget were ordinary people like ourselves. The meat & potatoes of this book provides the reader with easy steps to implement into our daily lives which enable us to achieve any of the goals we desire.
Book Description
Software documentation forms the basis for all communication relating to a software project. To be truly effective and usable, it should be based on what needs to be known. Agile Documentation provides sound advice on how to produce lean and lightweight software documentation. It will be welcomed by all project team members who want to cut out the fat from this time consuming task. Guidance given in pattern form, easily digested and cross-referenced, provides solutions to common problems.
Straightforward advice will help you to judge:
- What details should be left in and what left out
- When communication face-to-face would be better than paper or online
- How to adapt the documentation process to the requirements of individual projects and build in change
- How to organise documents and make them easily accessible
- When to use diagrams rather than text
- How to choose the right tools and techniques
- How documentation impacts the customer
Better than offering pat answers or prescriptions, this book will help you to understand the elements and processes that can be found repeatedly in good project documentation and which can be shaped and designed to address your individual circumstance. The author uses real-world examples and utilises agile principles to provide an accessible, practical pattern-based guide which shows how to produce necessary and high quality documentation.

Book Description
Architecture and Tourism examines the relationship between tourism and the built environment and shows how photography, film, and souvenirs have been deployed to help mediate and mythologize specific sites. It also explores how tourist itineraries, behavior, and literature support larger cultural objectives. Drawing upon case studies in the United States, Cuba, Ghana, Greece, France, Italy, Libya, Mauritius and Spain, Architecture and Tourism explores the touristic experience, representation and meaning of place within distinct cultural contexts. From the former sites of the slave trade on the Ghanean coast to the urban renewal of Old Havana and the honeymoon resorts in the Poconos, this book provides provocative insights into the practice of tourism and the conception of place.

A Rushed Book.......2005-06-29
Better called as a booklet, this 40 pages book was rushed out to press, so it came full of spelling mistakes, which becomes very irritating as you keep on trying to figure out what did the writer mean to say.
Although the fact remains, the writer could have pilled up 300 pages, to be only abbreviated to 30 pages, but still such booklet in no way deserves the 10 U$ price tag.
If you like small booklets, go for it, otherwise, look elsewhere. I feel cheated after purchasing it though !
This Books Plan Is Really Working For Me!!!.......2004-05-07
I am a 27 year old History teacher who is buried in school loans and credit card debt. I had $10. left to my name and I didn't know what to do. A friend of mine from the U.K. told me of this book, so I invested the last of my money in it. The book was a God send and it arrested my panic and helped me think straight. I followed the books financial plan that made so much sence to me, that I knew it would work. In just a few months, my financial situation has evolved in a positive direction and I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for this book.
Book Description
Here is wisdom for the workplace from the husband-and-wife team of the nationally syndicated public radio series New Dimensions, which airs each week on more than 300 stations and is often described as "Bill Moyers on radio."
Some people are consumed by their work, others simply endure it as they anticipate the weekend or retirement, and hardly anyone enjoys it anymore. If we could find a way to transform how we view what we do so that it becomes a source of enjoyment and refreshment, it would be a cause for celebration. And indeed, this is exactly what Michael and Justine Toms provide in their remarkable book--the fruit of their own twenty-five years of practical experience.
According to the Toms, the bottom line is: Has our compassion grown with our business? Has our wisdom expanded with our budget? And has our laughter increased with our staff? Their book looks at work as service and as a spiritually sustaining activity that promotes healing. It is brimful with stories and helpful techniques culled from their radio interviews with Joseph Campbell, Buckminster Fuller, the Dalai Lama, Alice Walker, Jon Kabat-Zinn, Marsha Sinetar, and many others.
Customer Reviews:
Doesn't just apply to work; applies to life: A MUST READ!!.......2005-09-06
Bought for a friend who was searching for work. Ending up keeping it myself when I started reading it (bought another copy for friend.) Poignant and relevant to more aspects of life than just work. A must read for anyone who is spiritually-oriented and committed to making a difference in life; for themselves, their family and friends, and the world. Extremely relevant to the changes we are currently and will be faced with. Truly uplifting, inspirational, and worth reading again and again. A MUST READ.
Profoundly Spiritual and Profoundly Practical.......2001-09-21
I want to give a copy of this book to everyone I know: I kept having that thought while I was reading the book and moreso now that I have finished it. Which means to me, that I should not give it to anyone but to apply the ideas contained in the book in my own life.
"True Work" is as important as anything that Joseph Campbell has written. It comes from Michael and Justine Tom's own life experience and contemplation of that experience.
The book shows how to integrate work into one's fabric of life, because work is one of life's threads, but it is not the whole cloth. Again, it is a profound work.
Not just another "how to" book.......2000-07-25
I found this book very insightful in a personal way. It has many real life stories and examples of people finding true meaning in what they do, as well as practical advice on how one can apply some of these lessons. Though it's not presented in a multi-step "follow these rules to success" manner, this book contains many pertinent insights on how we the reader can apply new points of view in our daily lives.
It's not about finding a job, it's about finding a life........1999-06-21
Other than finding true love, finding true work is just about the most important thing we can do to feel fulfilled. True Work helps you discover your passion, look for synchronicities along the way, and realize that the path to true work is a journey, not a destination.
offers a compendium of deep spiritual insights about work.......1999-05-26
Much more than a "how to" book on finding what you really want to do, True Work offers a compendium of deep spiritual insights which provide the inner foundation from which one's true life work may flow.

According to motivational expert Dr. Robert Anthony, permanent happiness and financial freedom can be yours, but only if you are satisfied with all aspects of your life -- particularly your work, since that's where so much of your time is spent. Now you can achieve such satisfaction by learning how to take charge of your own destiny. This step-by-step guide shows you how to: develop a positive faith in yourself and your abilities; replace risk-fear-failure with challenge-confidence-success; work hard without being a "workaholic" motivated by fear; and eliminate "should/ought" from your vocabulary. Learn to enjoy your job more by: realistically setting objectives; becoming more flexible; and working for your own -- no one else's -- approval.
The key to Doing What You Love, Loving What You Do is in becoming a positive, focused, self-confident and goal-oriented person. It can make the difference between dreaming your life and living your dream.

I have listened to this tape about 60 times. Each time I listen I hear something new and enlightening. Get it, and leave it in your tape machine.
UGH.......2001-10-17
Dr. Anthony clearly means well, but this volume was a waste of time for me. It is a loosely organized collection of pithy and obvious observations, anecdotes and truisms. There isn't an original idea or suggested approach in here--in spite of the great title.
this book changed my life.......1998-03-30
this book gave me a new way to look at life ,I feel I have more self-confidence, and my goals are clearer to me now.
