Book Description

In an extended foreword, specially prepared for this new impression, J.C. Holt asserts categorically "that Domesday Book and Beyond remains the greatest single book on English medieval history." Its lucidity, subtlety, compass, and (remarkably) statistical facility stand quite unsurpassed and, as Professor Holt demonstrates, many of the arguments that have dominated English medieval scholarship during the ensuing ninety years stem directly from Maitland's own hypotheses and conclusions.

Book Description

This provocative volume presents the most wide-ranging essays from the first five volumes of Subaltern Studies, along with an introductory essay by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak--the translator of Derrida's Of Grammatology into English--and a foreword by eminent critic Edward W. Said. Addressed to students and scholars throughout the humanities, these essays address what Antonio Gramsci--the founder of the Italian communist party--called the subaltern classes, reexamining well-known historical and political events, such as Gandhi's role in India, from a Marxist perspective. Together, the essays examine aspects of the analysis of domination, with special reference to the critique of imperialism, in an attempt to rectify the elitist bias characteristic of much academic work on India. A ground-breaking work of considerable pedagogical relevance for courses dealing with colonialism and imperialism in literature, sociology, anthropology, politics, and history, Subaltern Studies also features a comprehensive glossary of Indian terms for readers not familiar with Indian history.

Distinctive contributions are also made regarding the contrasting behaviors of businessmen and institutions in response to the Great Depression; the rise of Hitler and the "Jewish question"; the role of business networks in the politics of Belgium and Greece; and the business-politics dimension in the formation of the Irish Republic.

Powerhouse Free Publicity is Here.......2004-04-17

"Using the invaluable information inside George
McKenzie's suite of excellent products, I took a
bit different path. I incorporated George's great
advice with what I learned from Trout & Ries in
their excellent books, and here's what I did...

I took what's inside George's excellent resource
and adapted it to a specific need I had ...

Rather than send out a bazillion PR releases to
lots of folks who might not want my news, I
concentrated just on folks in my target market.

Using George's stellar advice, I attracted 42
international business people and marketers to a
project I was doing, instead of trying to attract just
strictly reporters. Why did I do that? To also gain
access to their knowledge, reputation, (and their
customer lists.)

So I "killed two birds with one stone' by following
this path. My recommendation to you is that you
actually LEARN why George's strategies are so
powerful. Spend some time on your strategy,
and then use George's excellent and proven
techniques to differentiate yourself from all of the
crazy noise in the marketplace, and then you'll
best serve your own desires as you grow.

All the best to you -

Excellent for Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses!.......2003-08-21

This, like a couple other products of George McKenzie's that I have purchased, was very useful and provided me with more information that I hoped for. It saved me a lot of time and a lot of money, had I just learned from trial and error, which I would have done if I didn't come across this. I've been recommending it to friends as well as other students in the MBA program I'm currently enrolled in. (Yes, I'm in an MBA program, but this was more practical and useful than my marketing classes!)

More traffic, more sales, more profits in less time, 0 cost.......2003-08-12

That's George McKenzie's promise, and with this series of cassettes, he shows anyone how to use the mass media to do it.

This is the only "free publicity" program I know of that takes you inside the nation's newsrooms -- and inside the heads of the people who actually decide what gets on the air and in print.

You get a perspective of how people in the media think, and you learn the most effective ways to present your story in a way that will appeal to them -- ways that will result in thousands of dollars worth of free advertising.

His interviews are conversational and easy to listen to, but packed with dozens of tips that anyone can use. This series is definitely worth five stars if you ask me. Anything George does is going to help you, and this one is no exception!

A Very Unique Publicity Seminar - I Give It Five Stars!.......2003-08-11

George has covered all the bases in this awesome four hour audio seminar. His guests are all experts from different media such as radio, television, newspaper, public speaking and the Internet.

Each interview was just fascinating. Each person revealed the inside workings of their respective media. Normally, when you read a publicity book its all about how to get in the newspapers. But this seminar series went into depth about all the major media.

I got the most out of the section about news releases. For example, the tip on about how to find a local angle has helped me in writing my first news release.

I specifically used the "piggybacking" technique, which allowed me to write a dynamic and interesting release WITHOUT having to come up with any "news" of my own. That was genius! (By the way, now I watch the local news and read the local paper with a totally different mindset)

I had been spending a lot of money (thousands of dollars) using all kinds of different paid media and in 30 minutes I got the same results for FREE using the press release strategy that was revealed in the audio seminar series.

I give this product an enthusiastic five stars. You will too!

Dr. Brad's Complete Review.......2003-08-08

I've got a majority of George's information and cassette products including Inside Stuff and once I started listening I didn't want to stop because you picked up many tips and "angles" without a lot of fluff and filler. The Public Relations campaigns shouldn't be as intimidating or expensive as some firms want you to believe. If you are a self-starter, then you should be able to take this information and capture the publicity that you need for your product or service on a more economical basis. And you can do it without looking like a beginner or making silly mistakes. Get it and use it.

Book Description

DATA WAREHOUSING ADVICE FOR MANAGERS In an information intensive age, data is the fuel powering the organizational machine. Flowing through the hands of knowledge workers, it is used to determine everything from corporate strategy and direction to product development and advertising concepts. Companies must have easy and instant access to data if they want to maintain a competitive edge. Data Warehousing Advice for Managers explores the possibilities of the "data warehouse" - -a data storage technology that optimizes accessibility -- and assists managers in determining whether it's right for their organization. It helps readers: ** understand the benefits that data warehousing offers and convince upper management to take action ** coordinate the data warehouse with other technologies ** manage the implementation of the warehouse to ensure its compliance to specified requirements ** obtain the highest return on their investment. PATRICIA FERDINANDI (Montclair, NJ) is the president of Strategic Business Decisions, Inc., a company specializing in requirements engineering and process improvement. She has over 20 years of experience helping business managers understand the inner workings of information technology.

Customer Reviews:

CIO Review 6/1/99: The best of both worlds.......1999-12-20

ALONG WITH EXPLAINING the basics; from what a data warehouse is, to determining if the enterprise needs one, how to build it and what to do with it once it's built;Patricia L. Ferdinandi's readable and meaty Data Warehousing Advice for Managers also explores what a data warehouse will not do like automatically transform information into knowledge. Furthermore, she describes how business managers can eliminate unnecessary manipulation of facts and figures, combine a data warehouse with the Internet and achieve the maximum return on their investment.

Although this book is not aimed specifically at IT folk, its case studies of successful data warehousing efforts are certainly valuable, as is its glossary, designed to help business people communicate with IT. And attentive IT executives will find excellent strategies for describing the benefits of data warehouse technology in purely business terms. Read this book yourself or give it to a business colleague you love.

David Pearson:

Excellent process-oriented guide for data processing manager.......1999-11-11

Data Warehousing Advice for Managers is the first book I have found that really offered management an insightful look at the data warehousing process. While everyone in middle management in a company may "know" that they need a data warehouse, selling the concept to upper management can be nearly impossible; data warehouses are very expensive, can tie-up valuable personal for long periods of time, and are notoriously difficult to manage. Upper management is aware of these issues, and resistive to undertaking the project. This book offers a clear-cut blueprint for estimating warehousing costs and for selling the application to top management.

While it is not a "how to" book, it does take the reader through the process of constructing a warehouse and show him how to plan and facilitate the design, implementation and installation. It gives the manager the information he needs to help him control what could otherwise be an unmanageable project. It illustrates via example how to make the best choices at key points throughout the project's life cycle. At all times, the author keeps a sharp eye on the "bottom line", enabling the manager to maximize the return for every dollar spent. In short, the author has produced a book that delivers what the title promises - good, sound advice for managers undertaking a warehousing project.

A very simplistic primer on how to request a data warehouse.......1999-07-12

I purchased this book based on a good review in Upside Magazine, but I have to confess to being rather disappointed. Ms. Ferdinaldi never really describes data warehousing per se; the book is more of an instruction manual aimed at novice managers to help them figure out how to ask for a data warehouse. I was anticipating a review of warehouse types and technological issues, but instead got a primer for B-school freshmen about how to suck up to upper management and make nice to the "technicians". Further, it is written for an audience of Fortune 1000 type managers - she spends far too much time on dealing with bureaucracy issues that just wouldn't exist at smaller companies, where data warehousing is just as critical an issue. About 10% of the text is educational, the rest is pretty much "duh". And the writing style is repetitive redundancy - the author states the same thing numerous times. In short, if you are a businessman (read - non-techie) who wants to learn about data warehouses without getting a computer science degree, then look elsewhere.
