Lethal Option - Book Review
"This has to be one of the best detective novels I have read
in some time ? right up there with Lawrence Sanders! P.J.
Lawton is far from new to the world of writing and he
displays excellent story-writing skills in Lethal Option. He
shares much of the same history as his main character,
giving the detective more depth than could be achieved
otherwise. I think I would classify this book as a 'thriller-mystery'. The
reader is taken on a roller-coaster ride from one seemingly
unconnected crime into another. The main character is a
Private Investigator who has a loyal heart and honestly tries
to make wrongs right whenever he can. Along with his
military history and police experiences, the PI was aware of
and listened to his sixth sense, which allowed him to detect
when things were not quite right ? a lethal combination. In
his private life his heart is beginning to awaken after many
years of slumber and he is faced with a decision that he is
not sure he is ready to make. Eventually the PI encounters
something so great that it changes his destiny, and possibly
his character, forever. I sincerely enjoyed reading and reviewing this book.
Honestly, I could not put it down and I have already begun a
second read ? this time for pleasure. I will be found pacing
the floors until I can get my hands on book #2 to see what
happens next! I give this book the highest rating possible
and recommend it highly to readers who love a book that
makes you think." ISBN#:1413779301

"A stimulating adventure! Sabine Muir has written a

Author Releases Comprehensive Family History Book On The Family of JACKEL, JECKEL, IEKEL, YAKEL
When the topic of family history comes up, where do you stand? How do you respond when someone asks you where you are from, or when questions about your surname are raised? Do you wish you could give something more than a vague reply, such as, "I grew up around here, and I'm not sure about the name. ..I think it's German"? If so, you aren't alone in your desire. The fact is, most people have a difficult time identifying their lineage much past their grandparents. In most cases, oral history alone is insufficient to traces one's family tree back beyond a couple of generations. One way to determine your history is through your own research, which can be quite frustrating, as well as costly, and excessively time consuming. Or, if you are very lucky, someone has already researched the family for you. Well, today is your luck day!

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.

Over the years, several books and countless magazine and newspaper articles have been written about Southwest Airlines.

Fortune magazine calls Southwest Airlines "the most successful airline in history." With a market value greater than the rest of the U.S. airline industry combined, Southwest Airlines is an amazing company with amazing management practices. No one, however, has completely captured the real explanation of why Southwest succeeds.

Turbo Strategy - A Book Summary
Businesses are run mostly on auto-pilot and any problem areas are only dealt with when they are already critical, but by then it may already be too late. Most business managers are too busy with the day-to-day work to sit back and look at the business critically in terms of its context and the direction it is going. Brian Tracey's Turbo Strategy provides a checklist of areas that should be regularly examined by all businesses to ensure that it remains on the right path towards success and profitability.
