Keeps getting better!.......2005-12-01
If you are looking for a complete and easy to use "bible" for the financial planner or are a student of financial planning this book is probably my favorite. It is COMPLETE. I used this book years ago as an instructor and found that I kept it as a reference to use in my practice.
I recently received the latest edition as a gift to replace my shopworn copy and find to it to be up to date, easy to use and still the first book I grab when I need to reference something that I have forgotten over the years or simply don't know.
I appreciate the depth of this book and recommend it to my fellow planners as the best book to own for good, quick answers or to students who really want to know the subject matter in a complete way.
Before you order keep in mind this isn't a quick read, it's a BIG book and full of information.
The consumate book that covers all your financial planning questions .......2005-11-27
If you look at the information notated in the table of contents alone, you can see why I say this. The breadth of the financial planning topics covered is simply fantastic.
If you are already in the field or are working towards attaining your CFP, there is alot of information to try to retain to be an efficient advisor to your clients. This book will assist you in your endeavor to retain this knowledge and give you one place to find same.
I have had fellow CFP students that are already in related professions comment to me they have used this book on a few occassions with in weeks of getting it. I believe actual use is the best recommendation a book like this can get. This is why I am getting another copy of this book to give as a present, to a friend who is an agent for a major Illinois insurance company.
I have also had the good fortune to meet the lead author, Sid Mittra, in person and was impressed with his true personal passion and interest in assembling experts in areas to supplement his own knowledge to bring us the best book on Practicing Financial Planning he could.

Introduction to the Hosptality Industry 3rd edition.......1999-12-03
Hi I just wanted to comment on your Intro to Hosptality book. I am a college student using this book I also work in the hospitality field and most of the materials and questions given on tests doesn't happen in the "real world" I find that this book doesn't comply with the day to day activity of the hospitality field and the stuff we learn in class is suppost to help us when we get out of school however this learning material doesn't I am not saying this book is porely written just the material in this book is very vague and doesn't go with the things we learn on the job. For example a question on one of the test it asks To meet the competition, upscale restaurants are likey to emphasize on ? your anwser was discounts for people over 65 and another anwser was service. Upscale resturants rely on SERVICE the better the service, the more likey the people will come back! It doesn't matter if your 65 or 25. That was just one example. The whole book has misleading questions that isn't the way the hospitality feild is. And I just figure the whole point of going to school is once you leave the class is to take what you have learned and apply it to every day activity in your hospitality feild. And this book doesn't do that I think this was a waste of my money! I spent about 65 dollars on a book that was useless! I don't mean to be so critical but I pay for school my self and working full time and being a full time student I try to get everything out of my classes I can and get my moneys worth. And this being a required class it doesn't measure up to par and this is not only my opinion but my fellow class mates also.

Worldwide Destinations .......2007-10-10
The instructor at the local community college recommended this title to students taking a travel and tourism class. The title was not in stock at the college bookstore, so our friend asked if I could locate a copy for her. I turned to Amazon. Your price beat all others and the book arrived ahead of the promised time! The book is being used constantly as a resource book by the friend. Thanks.

Book Description
This coursebook takes a finance-oriented approach to corporate bankruptcy and can be used either in basic Bankruptcy courses (that do not attend to individual bankruptcy) or in advanced Bankruptcy courses. The student will learn not only the major elements of corporate reorganization in chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, but also the major facets of bankruptcy that influence financing transactions. The hidden message behind these materials is how to understand complex financial deal-making and how to integrate finance with law, in the context of bankruptcy.
Book Description
Includes a combination of explanatory text, cases, and problems that permit the professor to use either a problem-based approach or a more traditional case-based approach. Ample explanatory text orients students to the issues and helps them bring a basic understanding of the material to each class session. Most of the problems and much of the explanatory text are based on a continuing hypothetical case of Foam Corporation, a distressed manufacturer. The goal is to provide a concrete setting for the application of bankruptcy law and the consideration of bankruptcy policy.
Customer Reviews:
A solid Chapter 11 Hornbook.......2007-01-26
This is a well written hornbook for those law students seeking to get their arms around Chapter 11 reorganizations. The concepts that one needs to master to understand business reorganizations can be especially difficult for law students. If you are taking a class in Chapter 11 reorganizations, this is a hornbook worth having. For a general overview of bankruptcy concepts, including Chapters 7 and 13, I recommend professor Epstein's Nutshell Series book on Bankruptcy.
Good book for comprehensive bankruptcy Course.......2006-12-04
Good book if you are taking a comprehensive bankruptcy course. Initially seems daunting, but by the time you complete the book you will have an excellent overall understanding of bankruptcy. Possibly overkill for basic bankruptcy course.
Book Description
Covers revised statutes or rules of court governing the enforcement of judgments and prejudgment procedures. Illustrates various approaches of individual jurisdictions with cases that represent current law in the respective states. Special attention to the modernization of the state exemption laws. Presents recent case law showing problems and controversies created by the Bankruptcy Code and the Amendments of 1984. Deals with special problems relating to the formulation and confirmation of Chapter 11 and Chapter 13 plans.
