Customer Reviews:
This book is great for learning good habits.......2006-06-22
This book was required in one of my college classes. It teaches you how to choose goals and how to set them. It helps with the process of breaking your goals into smaller easier to manage pieces to avoid becoming overwhelmed and frustrated.
This book is a great tool for students of all ages and adults too. It helps teach good study habits which then turn into good work habits.
I would recommend this book for anyone that wants to become successful in school, work and life.
Wrong book received.......2004-10-05
What i ordered was very clear but i received a book with totally diferent ISBN #. I don't think it was an honest mistake, it's the only book they had and wanted to get rid of it. I'd never buy from these guys again.
Winning in The Game of Life.......2000-09-13
This book should be read not only by students but also by anyone who is still unsure about what they are doing and where they are going. It covers a wide range of topics and addresses serious issues that face especially the teens and young adults as they make a transition from school to society. These range from help with learning and time management to issues on sexual decisions and substance abuse. The layout and graphics make it appealing and easy to read. "Keys to Success" systematically takes student readers through their final years in schools and helps them to think seriously about their goals in school, their careers and ultimately their future lives. Coupled with questionnaires and written exercises, it really leads to greater self-awareness and confidence. I would recommend that parents of teenage children get this book for them and better still go through it with them, if their schools do not use it in their curriculum. Not only students, but anyone who still feels unsure of himself or herself could benefit from this book. We all have goals and dreams for our future. This book shows us how we can take charge and emerge winners in the game of life.

Book Description
This groundbreaking book recognizes the devastating effect product liability lawsuits can have on corporations worldwide, and the necessity for organizations to understand all the elements of product liability prevention. Taking a proactive approach to describing how to put this type of quality program in place, Randall L. Goodden (known worldwide as a leading expert in the field of Quality and Product Liability Prevention) demonstrates how any organization, even with its own non-legal staff, can join the fight against potential product liability actions, and win!
Once this type of quality program is initiated, the company will have not only gained a whole new level of awareness and education, but it will also have product liability teams and experts in place who will help the company steer clear of any potential future problems. This new dimension of quality will lead to substantial improvements in many areas of any organization, significantly protect organizations from legal action, and help improve their bottom line.

Praise for Essential Challenges of Strategic Management
"Bill Rouse provides helpful insight to make any business, and in particular any high- tech business, perform better."-Dennis A. Roberson, Senior Vice President & Chief Technology Officer Motorola
"A well-organized, easy-to-understand bible for all strategic managers and leaders."-Dr. Stanley G. Rosen, Director of Strategic Planning Boeing Satellite Systems
"A must-read for managers seeking clarity and focus as they lead organizations through chaotic times."-William C. Kessler, Vice President for Enterprise Productivity Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company
From TQM to business process reengineering to knowledge management, the last several decades have witnessed the rise and fall of many a management panacea. As a consequence, a general feeling is now brewing among disillusioned managers worldwide that perhaps the time has come to abandon the impractical quest for an all-encompassing solution to management problems and get back to basics. Essential Challenges of Strategic Management takes a major step towards realizing that goal.
Drawing upon the experiences of literally thousands of executives and senior managers working in all industry sectors, as well as government and nonprofit organizations, this book zeros in on the fundamental challenges faced by every senior manager, regardless of the business he or she is in, and describes a range of approaches to those challenges developed by women and men working at many of today's leading organizations.
Designed as a ready source of inspiration and ideas for busy executives and senior managers, Essential Challenges of Strategic Management consists of concise, independent chapters, each dedicated to a different strategic challenge. Throughout, celebrated entrepreneur, Fortune 500 consultant, author and educator, William Rouse uses fascinating and instructive case studies and vignettes to illustrate the best practices in strategic management and vividly describes various approaches, tools, and techniques. Additionally, he provides clear-cut guidelines for selecting and implementing the solutions most likely to succeed in a given situation.

Book Description
The image of Hitler as a demagogic "pied piper" leading astray the "little people" of Austria is as misleading as it is powerful. Nazism and the Working Class in Austria is a case study of the ambiguous relationship between state and society under the Nazis. Workers did not seriously attempt or even expect to overthrow the Nazi regime in the face of unprecedented surveillance and terror; but neither were they converted, and their oppositional strategies and disgruntled political opinions reveal a truculent workforce, rather than one that was contented and converted.

Book Description
Euro on Trial looks back - to the aspirations of the founders - and forward - to the possibility of reform or splitting up. After five years of experience with the new currency, new insights are possible into the old arguments for and against union. Monetary union is reversible in part or in whole and this book assesses the costs and benefits. Brown examines several mainstream scenarios for the future of the euro in these essential readings for market practitioners as well as academics. For example, how long will the euro survive? The author shows that the answer depends principally on Germany. Any of the small or medium-sized economies could leave monetary union without threatening its existence. But were Germany to pull out it is highly doubtful whether there would be a core of countries that would perserve inside. Germany's membership so far has brought much disappointment. How many more years of disillusion are required before the question of EMU reform or break-up enters the mainstream of German political debate?

Book Description
This book concerns industry creation as knowledge creation. The authors argue that a new class of global, knowledge-driven manufacturing industries has emerged in which learning, continuity, and speed define competition. In these new industries, access to knowledge creation processes matters more than ownership of physical assets. Location matters only insofar as it confers learning advantages and market access. Companies need strategies that can mobilize their organizations’ country-specific strengths and freely leverage them in open, global learning partnerships with allies, suppliers, and customers. Managing New Industry Creation distills principles that managers can use to seize leadership for their companies as these new industries emerge.
The authors draw their insights from firsthand discussions with over 160 managers and scientists who helped found the high-information-content flat panel display (FPD) industry. In the early 1990s, large-format FPDs exploded into public knowledge as a critical enabling technology for notebook computers. In the future, FPDs will increasingly function as the face by which users interact with technology products. The book recounts the business decisions that propelled the industry from humble beginnings to empower a globally mobile workforce and eventually build wall-hanging, high definition televisions that every household can afford.
The FPD industry was the first new manufacturing industry to fully emerge in a global economy defined more by trade in knowledge than in physical products. Although FPDs were commercialized in Japan, the joint efforts of an international community of companies made high-volume production of large displays viable. Companies from outside of Japan—including IBM, Applied Materials, and Corning—achieved key positions by challenging U.S.-centered preconceptions of innovation, new business creation, and management process, giving unprecedented global authority and responsibility to their Japanese affiliates. Their success established new rules for competing in the knowledge-driven, global manufacturing industries of the future, first described here for managers, R&D scientists, academics, and students of corporate strategy.
Customer Reviews:
Best Understanding of the Flat Panel Industry.......2002-12-17
This book is the only work I know of which accurately recounts the rise of the flat panel industry and captures the key factors which separated the eventual winners from the rest of the participants. The authors clearly spent a great deal of time interviewing and reinterviewing the key players all around the world, and were able to develop an understanding of this industry which far surpasses the somewhat parochial and simplistic viewpoint we often hear in the U.S.
There are many lessons to be learned from the emergence of the flat panel industry (particularly in the U.S.) and this book does a very good job of extracting them from a wealth of insightful observations.
Backward looking.......2002-12-08
This book gives a good overview of the Flat Panel sector; it may provide a good academic case study. However, as a manager, I was also looking for advice that I could apply now. This sector has been characterized by intense competition and turbulence, especially as regards international competition. Murtha et al. provide hackneyed insights and many of their predictions and "insights" are wrong. Disappointing!
Could not predict shifts in industry.......2002-10-07
This book is written in a scholarly style, and is rather laborious reading. Additionally, it lacks predictive validity and has been unable to predict any of the momentous changes in the flat-display sector that have occurred in the last year. Dated!
Interesting and Compelling.......2002-04-09
This book is well-written and gives important insights into competitive and cooperative strategies in areas of rapid technological change. It gives a more insightful analysis than available anywhere else, with quite a bit of applicability to current technological decision making.
Strategic technology alliance: no borders to technology.......2002-04-03
This book takes a detailed look at the development of Flat Panel Displays and the enormously complex and expensive developments (in science, technology, manufacturing and manufacturing equipment) needed for them. Based on extensive field interviews in the US and Japan, the authors show that no company could have developed the technologies required alone. Instead, a collaborative community of practice of suppliers, manufacturers, scientists, and users had to coalesce, and did, in Japan. Nevertheless, some US firms were critical players: those that collaborated and participated in Japan. This book forces us to rethink simple-minded notions of how and where technology can develop, with profound implications for managing strategy, making trade policy, and understanding increasingly complex high tech strategy.
