Excellent Information Planning Experiments.......2001-06-14

This book is for someone that has identified problems, and wants to use sound experiments to solve those problems. The book provides some good guidelines, and some good forms for preparing experiments (some of which I use). They emphasize graphical/visual approaches, and avoid statistics, which I missed somewhat. When I travel to different plants to solve problems, I use this book as a reference.

Understandable Design of Experiments and Quality Application.......1999-01-20

Robert Brewer has written a book that allows you to understand statistical process control techniques without being a mathematician. He uses graphs were ever possible to point out how to tell if a process is working as it should. He also explains ideas like process capability, process improvment and analysis of variance of properties in a straighforward, readable and understandable fashion.

Book Description

The Tools You Need To Be A Successful Engineer As you read through this new text, you'll discover the importance of Statistical Quality Control (SQC) tools in engineering process monitoring and improvement. You'll learn what SQC methods can and cannot do, and why these are valuable additions to your engineering tool kit. And instead of overwhelming you with unnecessary details, the authors make the implementation of statistical tools "user-friendly." The rich set of examples and problems integrated throughout this book will help you gain a better understanding of where and how to apply SQC tools. Real projects, cases and data sets show you clearly how SQC tools are used in practice. Topics are covered in the right amount of detail to give you insight into their relative importance in modern quality assurance and the ability to immediately use them. This approach provides the mix of tools you'll need to succeed in your engineering career. Key Features of the Text
* Provides a coherent presentation of the role of statistics in quality assurance.
* Places special attention on making sure that while the technical details are absolutely correct, they do not overwhelm the reader.
* Presents the material in realistic contexts, with examples and problems that are based on real-world projects, cases and data sets.
* The implementation of statistical tools is user-friendly.
* The statistical treatment emphasizes graphics and estimation (and de-emphasizes hypothesis testing).

great book on quality control from a statisticians viewpoint.......2000-12-13

In my work with engineers at Biosense Webster I am often confronted with issues related to the design and/or analysis of an R&R Gauge study, the construction of tolerance intervals or the estimate of a process capability parameter. I often refer to or refer them to Vardeman's book to handle these problems. Many engineers are taught to do gauge R&R studies but they just know how to turn the crank. They don't have an understanding of the analysis of variance that gives meaning to the analysis and motivates the design. Too often sample estimates are treated as though they are the actual parameters. Vardeman and Jobe write for the engineers but with a statistician's perspective and understanding. They cover control charts, process capability, experimental design, inspection sampling and TQM. They provide simple formulas and tables to give the engineer the tools he needs to handle most common quality control problems. More importantly though, they also provide excellent development and discussion so that there can be depth of understanding of the key concepts. This book is not only good for engineers but also is a good reference book for statisticians. It can easily be used for a first course in quality control. Another good book along these lines is Ryan's "Statistical Methods for Quality Improvement". Certainly, Juran's "Quality Handbook" is a great reference also.

Breakout Strategy: Meeting the Challenge of Double-Digit Growth

ASIN: 0073203130

Book Description

STRATEGY: Winning in the Marketplace is the newest offering from proven authors Thompson, Gamble, and Strickland. As in previous works, the authors' mainstream presentation includes the most recent research in strategy presented in a way that students can understand and apply to business cases and problems. With fewer chapters and pages and shorter cases than previous texts by these authors, this text offers a more concise, lively, and user-friendly presentation of strategic management. Fundamental strengths of Thompson/Gamble/Strickland text treatments are very much evident in this edition-a compelling presentation of Porter's Five-Forces model and globally competitive markets and first-rate coverage of strategy execution and the drive for operating excellence. Another hallmark of this new product is the package of Thompson/Gamble/Strickland cases and related teaching notes. Over the years, this author team has developed a great network of case authors and is able to select from the cream of the crop. Having written scores of cases themselves and having a combined experience of 70 years teaching this particular course, they are very skilled in selecting the types of cases that will spark student interest and generate lively classroom discussions. Many of the cases reflect high profile industries, companies, products, and people that students will have heard of, know about from personal experience, or can easily identify with. The new case line-up features an exciting collection of the latest and best cases flush with valuable teaching points and lessons for students.

ASIN: 0691116334

Book Description

This book challenges the widely accepted notion that globalization encourages economic convergence--and, by extension, cultural homogenization--across national borders. A systematic comparison of organizational change in Argentina, South Korea, and Spain since 1950 finds that global competition forces countries to exploit their distinctive strengths, resulting in unique development trajectories.

Analyzing the social, political, and economic conditions underpinning the rise of various organizational forms, Guillén shows that business groups, small enterprises, and foreign multinationals play different economic roles depending on a country's path to development. Business groups thrive when there is foreign-trade and investment protectionism and are best suited to undertake large-scale, capital-intensive activities such as automobile assembly and construction. Their growth and diversification come at the expense of smaller firms and foreign multinationals. In contrast, small and medium enterprises are best fitted to compete in knowledge-intensive activities such as component manufacturing and branded consumer goods. They prosper in the absence of restrictions on export-oriented multinationals.

The book ends on an optimistic note by presenting evidence that it is possible--though not easy--for countries to break through the glass ceiling separating poor from rich. It concludes that globalization encourages economic diversity and that democracy is the form of government best suited to deal with globalization's contingencies. Against those who contend that the transition to markets must come before the transition to ballots, Guillén argues that democratization can and should precede economic modernization. This is applied economic sociology at its best--broad, topical, full of interesting political implications, and critical of the conventional wisdom.

Chronicle of Higher Education article about the handbook:
http://chronicle.com/free/2002/08/2002081301t.htm

"The Fielding Institute authors apply an impressive wealth of organizational management theory and experience in their analyses of computer-mediated teaching and learning. The result is an enjoyable-to-read, fresh and lively book, delivering an abundance of ideas about how to establish a supportive learning environment, design a well structured course and manage electronically mediated dialog, -- in other words, how to successfully facilitate learning in the new context of on-line distance education."

¾Michael G. Moore, Pennsylvania State University and Editor, The American Journal of Distance Education

"This book is a fascinating, comprehensive, revealing array of information about online learning. It is full of practical applications and significant implications for a future where online learning will play an increasingly larger role. It is essential for any library keeping up on online learning innovations."

¾ Dr. Bernard J. Luskin, President and Co-CEO, GlobalLearningSystems, Inc. Visiting Professor, Claremont Graduate University

"This book not only is that rare breed that addresses online learning in both higher education and corporate environments but every chapter is intriguing, informative, and accurately grounded. This book provides a comprehensive, timely, and informative look at online learning in higher education and corporate training settings. For an update on the state of e-learning in educational and training environments, simply read this book."

¾ Curtis J. Bonk, Ph.D., Indiana University and Courseshare.com

"Business and Learning have enjoyed a symbiotic relationship in our culture. The pace of change, however, has created separation between these two vital elements. The "Handbook of Online Learning" showcases the latest thinking and applications in learning delivery, and offers real promise that the gap is being bridged."

¾ D.M. Verkest, AT&T Wireless Services, Vice-President-National Operations

"The authors of this book are all experienced distance educators who know what the issues are: How are people engaged in teaching and learning at a distance "present" to one another? How do you create a community in the class? How can a teacher deal with an obstreperous student? What are the teaching/learning environments in universities and corporations as they affect distance education? The essays in this book inhabit the border where the idea of distance education meets the reality. The give practical advice and provide examples informed by both theory and experience."

¾ Stanley Chodorow, Professor Emeritus, University of California, San Diego & Former CEO, California Virtual University

The demand for academic coursework and corporate training programs using the Internet and computer-mediated communication networks increases daily. The development and implementation of these new programs requires that traditional teaching techniques and course work be significantly reworked. This Handbook consists of 20 chapters authored by experts in the field of teaching in the online environment to adult students enrolled in graduate university degree programs, corporate training programs, and continuing education courses. The book is organized to first lay a conceptual and theoretical foundation for implementing any online learning program. Topics such as psychological and group dynamics, ethical issues, and curriculum design are covered in this section. Following the establishment of this essential framework are separate sections devoted to the practical issues specific to developing a program in either an academic or corporate environment. Whether building an online learning program from the ground up or making adjustments to improve the effectiveness of an existing program, this book is an invaluable resource.

A good book for making sense of ad agencies.......2006-07-06

If your firm is looking to hire an ad agency, it would be hugely beneficial to read this book. It will allow you to better understand how these agencies work and how to get your money's worth.

Besides that, however, the book doesn't accomplish its goal of making it any easier to spot extraordinary advertising. The stories Mr. Silveira tells are fun and help put some fizz in the book. There are, however, no rules - hard or easy - that can predict what succeeds and what fails.

Easy to read, hard to digest........2006-03-03

Mark Silveira may seem not to say anything new but he definitely says it in an original and authentic way. Being a very keen observer the book contains many insights on the advertising industry and the creative process. A must read.

A companion read to Truth, Lies & Advertising.......2005-04-28

The other reviewers here have it right -- this is insightful, incisive thinking, presented in an engaging, provocative, highly readable way. The author knows the advertising world from the inside, has clearly thought hard about what works, what doesn't and why, and wants to make you smarter. Observant, insightful, frequently spiky and a very worthwhile investment.

It's right up there with "Whipple".......2004-02-03

I teach advertising concepting and copywriting at a professional development and portfolio school, and this book has joined Luke Sullivan's "Hey Whipple, Squeeze This" on the list of "must read" books for my students. Mark Silveira has told the story about why safe advertising is dangerous in a succinct, persuasive, and masterfully written way. It's rare that you come across a business book that goes into the couldn't-put-it-down category, but this is one for certain. If you are involved in the creation of advertising, you'll get a lot out of this quick read. Then, don't be surprised if you order a case of them to send on to your clients.

One of Advertising's Best.......2003-11-19

I wish everyone in the business would read this book. Armed with Silveira's insight, creative people might well find it easier to sell their best work. And, given his gift for exposing the flaws inherent in so many widely accepted methods of evaluation, clients can see clearly the dangers of the so-called "safe route."

Book Description

From being a subject at the margins of finance, economics, accounting, law and management, corporate governance is now becoming a subject of more central concern to each of these disciplines, and increasingly is regarded as a subject that is at the heart of business and management studies. This book brings together the most influential writing in corporate governance drawn from finance, economics, accounting, law and management in an integrative and interdisciplinary way. br br Intended as a companion volume to International Corporate Governance that surveys the global development of corporate governance policy and practice, this book Theories of Governance provides a valuable grounding in the classical theories underpinning contemporary analysis of corporate governance: br br * The origins of the modern business enterprise br * The separation of ownership and control br * How economic activity is organized through firms br * The managerial revolution in business br * Agency problems of managers representing investors br * Risk management and the conception of the company as a series of transactions br * Shareholder value as the ultimate objective and measure of corporate success br * Managerial hegemony and nominal boards of directors br * Stewardship theory and company board performance br * Stakeholder theory and the conception of the company as a set of relationships br * The globalization of corporations, equity markets, and corporate governance br * Convergence and divergence in corporate governance systems br * The impact of corporate objectives upon corporate stakeholders

Customer Reviews:

A complete collection of corporate governance theories.......2006-03-24

Thomas Clarke's most recent book is extremely interesting for students, practitioners and scholars.
Managerial hegemony, separation of ownership and control, agency theory, stewardship theory, stakeholder theory: the book contains excerpts from the most important articles which have contributed to the corporate governance debate.
Professor Clarke accompanies the readings with a long introduction in which he revisits and re-organizes the numerous theories. His approach in unbundling the 'governance mystique' is to insert the different thoeries in their historical, economic and regional context.
Often the Author only hints to his personal views, although these appear obvious towards the end of his introduction.
Can we really move towards a stakeholder theory? Does not the stakeholder theory operate at a different, policy-maker level, compared to the agency theory / corporate law level? Can directors really have a fiduciary duty not only towards shareholders but employees/stakeholders as well? What role can social capital and trust have in the future? Can ethics 'save us'?
The book is great reading, a fine synopsis of the current debate. I firmly recommend it.

Book Description

Information Technology Control and Audit, Second Edition is an excellent introductory textbook for IT auditing. It covers a wide range of topics in the field including the audit process, the legal environment of IT auditing, security and privacy, and much more.

Customer Reviews:

Not good for the CISA exam.......2007-10-02

I bought this book as an additional material to study for the CISA exam. However it didn't help me with the exam at all. Furthermore, in an attempt to cover many things, it did not cover anything in detail. This book is just an endless recollection of bullet points. On top of that, it misses very sensitive topics like disaster recovery planning.

Useful reference material.......2007-02-02

This book has some material relevant to the CISA examination based on the 2003 content areas, although it is not organized or focused as a CISA examination guide. If you are looking for CISA review material for the test, I would strongly suggest to stick with ISACA's combination of review manual and questions CD. I also searched everywhere for study aids for this grueling test and ended up using ISACA's expensive material, but it proved to be the best choice as I passed the Dec 2006 test.

However, as owner of a copy of this book, I assure you that this is an excellent reference of IT management, planning, implementation, risk assessment and control procedures for anyone in the IT business. Most of the material is still relevant as of 2007.

Finally a usable explanation of controls!.......2006-12-30

Audit is not the most exciting topic in the world, but this no fluff book really sets the standard. The care the authors took is obvious from the start, the table of contents is one of the most detailed I have ever seen, it allows the book to be used as a reference.

My favorite chapter was Quality Management, best job of making quality approachable I have seen to date. My least favorite was Project Management, it seemed to lack the application and lean to theory a bit.

I am not an auditor, but as an auditee, this book really helped me understand how they think. Recommended!

Too thin.......2006-03-24

This is a huge book but spends no more then 1 page on any topic. In my opinion the authors only have financial audit experience and little understanding of IT controls. This book shows the failure of the 'integrated auditor' as the authors are tyring to be IT auditors with little IT experience. They touch on some very good points in a few instances and, in general, the book is decent. The authors do not know much outside of the CISA, IIA and financial based certifications as they seem to think that the ISSA (Information Systems Security Assoc.) is sponsored by ISC2/CISSP's (it is not). Overall, I have not been impressed with this book.

Not having much experience in the IT audit field, this book was a great resource and was easy to understand.
