.Strength Training Anatomy
City Travel Guides > Books > Professional and Technical
by: Frederic Delavier

November 04, 2005
Books is the BEST I have ever seen on showing muscles for each exercise. Hands down winner. All my workout partners use it often to review our exercises.

But we also found a book that has the workouts planned out in simple charts. Has the weights, # of reps and everything. AND THEY WORK. I have lost over 12 lbs of fat in 3 months and spend less time in the Gym.

The books.
Weight Training Workouts that Work by James Orvis.

There are 3 books in the series and they have been great addition to Strength Training Anatomy.

My recommendation -Start lifting weights - everyone/any age/right now! I am 41 and feel better than when I was 25!

City Travel Guides > Books > Professional and Technical
by: John Medina

2008-03
This author, a well educated neuroscientist, has that rare ability to combine scientific wisdom, common sense and a sense of humor into a cocktail that goes down easy and creates a very pleasant feeling, but doesn't make you stupid. You then know what you need to do to be healthier, live longer and feel better. The rest is up to you.

.Clinically Oriented Anatomy (5th Edition)
City Travel Guides > Books > Professional and Technical
by: Keith L Moore, Arthur F Dalley

Here is the low down. This book is not a book that you can even consider reading through! It is, however, one of the best references that you can buy. I felt like the text was clear and detailed on every anatomical part that I wanted to know about. In medical school, there were times that I needed to reference something because I didn't understand. This book did a great job of filling that roll. It is comforting to know that I have this one on my shelf, and I am still referencing it. The pictures are clear and informative, but it is a text. It is not an Atlas or a review. It will explain things to you in words with a few picutres to supplement. In hindsight, however, it wasn't necessary. It is nice to have, but you can do without if your class ... Read More:

I bought a new book on Amazon.com. There isn't this code in the book. At a book store, the code was default. -.-;;

.Qualitative Reading Inventory-4 (4th Edition)
City Travel Guides > Books > Professional and Technical
by: Lauren Leslie, JoAnne Schudt Caldwell

I had to buy this book for a graduate class. I used the QRI II all the time in my school. As the special education teacher, it was a quick and easy assessment for those first meetings. The new one is a little more organized.
Overall it is a quick and easy assessment tool.

.Microeconomics (7th Edition)
City Travel Guides > Books > Professional and Technical
by: Robert Pindyck, Daniel Rubinfeld

June 21, 2008
Explains the concepts well regarding microecon (at the intermediate level). However the MAJOR thing this book lacks are examples of the computations. The end of chapter problems are difficult without clear and concise example, it's almost like the two authors agreed to write the book but never consulted eachother until the end.

The book doesn't show how to solve the problems sets, the appendices are slim and ineffective.

Very poor book, find another microecon book with better examples for your class!

This reference manual is very well organized, comprehensive and portable. The front part has a "cheat sheet" that is very useful. A must-have for special education personnel, diagnostic clinicians, etc.

This is a great way to practice self care. My massage therapist recommended this book to me! She has just lost a good client because I now know how to treat myself. Really needs to be sold with the theracane but there are illustrations showing how to use a tennis ball. Great book.

.Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make Competition Irrelevant
City Travel Guides > Books > Professional and Technical
by: W. Chan Kim, Renée Mauborgne

February 03, 2005
Strategy:

1. In blue oceans, competition is irrelevant because the rules of the game are waiting to be set. Companies need to go beyond competing. To seize new profit and growth opportunities, they also need to create blue oceans.

2. Put the clock forward 20 to 50 years and ask yourself how many unknown industries will exist. Surprisingly, many of the unknown industries will exist.

3. Value innovation is focusing on making competition irrelevant by creating a leap in value for your buyers and you company, thereby opening up new and uncontested market space.

4. Value innovation is neither cutting edge technology nor timing of the market. Value innovation occurs when companies align with utility, price, and ... Read More:
