The Letter Writer: Book Review
"I enjoyed reading this book. The characters were portrayed
very well. Jack, a multimillionaire who experiences mid-life
crisis and ends up finding meaning to his life ? but it costs
him millions of dollars and emotional pain. Adele is a
heavy-drinking, free-living, multimillionaire with an
independent mind and a sense of humor. Wendy, a single
mother who finds the love of her life. Mixed up educators
playing with their students' lives in their conquest and the
retiring professor who resists this plot has a big secret. A
married advisor carries on an affair with another man and
when he is discovered, he thinks his world has ended. I would say this fiction is a light comedy that is quite
entertaining and has some romance elements as well.
Author Robert Mercer-Nairne brings attention to common
human frailties with a sense of fun. He clearly reveals the
desire to 'get rich quick' in North American Society.
Members of this society tend to hear what we WANT to hear
and perceive the greener pasture out there somewhere ?
rather than in the here and now. Readers are shown the foolishness of following others
blindly and the danger of where our greed can take us.
Innocents can have their life irrevocable altered by someone
else's desire to climb a corporate or social ladder. The
benefit of spiritual leaders to help ground the characters in
this novel, helping them learn to forgive themselves and
move on in life is used at several points in the story. I recommend this book for anyone looking for a light,
entertaining read." ISBN#: 0974814105

Ideas Are Free - A Book Summary
Without great ideas, no organization can stay afloat, much less flourish. Managers and top executives are constantly struggling to come up with big ones ? creative marketing strategies, ingenious cost-cutting schemes and other corporate solutions that will save time and money and improve productivity. But what few of them realize is that right under their noses is a virtually limitless source of valuable ideas ? ideas that can revolutionize their company and help bring substantial and sustainable competitive advantage. These great ideas come, surprisingly, from the lowest point of the corporate food chain ? from the frontline employees who do the "dirty" work and who therefore see a lot of problems and opportunities that their managers do not.

Kmarts Ten Deadly Sins - AchieveMax® Top Ten Book Review
Kmart's Ten Deadly Sins: How Incompetence Tainted an American Icon was begging to be written. It probably would have surfaced much earlier if not for the fear of many authors that publishing too soon would result in the omission of who knows how many future bewildering tactics by the forever transforming retail giant, K-mart. Actually, contrary to my early assumption, this book is less an indictment of K-mart than it is a combination of warnings and lessons to everyone else. There are so many negative examples in the news today of how NOT to succeed in business. However, many organizations fail to acknowledge or learn from these examples.
