      4 out of 5 stars Good book for uneducated teachers with regards to law.......2001-03-21

      With all the horror stories we hear about teachers being fired and sued over decesions they made about punishment and what to teach and how to teach, this book is a gold mine. It provides information on just about any topic a teach may encounter. Not only does it have great information, it is also written with few "legal trade" words.

                    Book Description

                    Integrating theory and evidence from a range of social sciences, the authors argue that the satisfaction derived from material goods depends upon their symbolic meaning, as people use goods to reinforce a positive social identity. They further contend that this calls for the incorporation of status preferences in economic models. The book finds that concerns over social status may lead decision makers to significantly overvalue consumption and undervalue the natural environment. In addition, income and consumption taxes that are normally regarded as `distortionary' may be necessary to address the social costs of status signaling. Based on the available evidence, the authors argue that failing to account for status preferences can lead to flawed policy prescriptions in debates over optimal taxation, the economics of climate change and Environmental Kuznets Curves. To address this bias, the book offers a tractable, operational, and theoretically grounded approach to the economics of social status.

                      4 out of 5 stars Insightful!.......2004-05-19

                      It's hard to find a book that doesn't emphasize only one phase of the sales process, such as prospecting, at the cost of another phase, such as presentations. Cy Charney's authoritative manual lives up to its name and thoroughly covers all areas. The tips provide a comprehensive compendium of predominant wisdom on how to sell. This is essentially a book of lists - lists of prospecting tips, how to make presentations, how to overcome objections, how to close and more. This handbook is notable more for its breadth than the originality of its ideas, some of which are targeted to beginners. However, it does offer up-to-date coverage of newer technologies, such as Internet searching. The volume's minimalist organizational design actually suits its goal: providing straightforward information to those with a sincere desire to master the art of selling. We very highly recommend this book to those pursuing the noble profession of sales.

                      5 out of 5 stars Wonderful for getting started, or restarted!.......2004-02-05

                      Short, punchy chapters teach you about prospecting, the selling process, getting on the customer's wavelength, dealing with objections, convincing strategies, people issues, closing, partnership selling, technology, career effectiveness, organizational effectiveness, and personal development. The author uses lots of bulleted/numbered lists which supply practical details on how to respond to particular common situations. This is clearly a book for the beginner, but it's another great book to add to your bookshelf!

                        Direct mail is not the exclusive domain of big hitters like Publishers Clearinghouse and Victoria's Secret. Small businesses can tap into the same gold mine without spending thousands of dollars on copy writers, designers, printers and postage. You can place a powerful marketing message directly into the hands of highly qualified prospects for as little as 50¢ per contact. Larry Mersereau's book; Post Card POWER, shows you how to assemble a qualified mailing list, design and write post cards that will hit them between the eyes with your message, and demand response.

                        4 out of 5 stars Sets the standard for post card marketing.......2007-05-31

                        If you're looking for an economical way of generating sales leads, a post card program may be just what you need. If so, POST CARD POWER by Larry Mersereau will be a valuable resource and will save you a lot of time and money.

                        This is a smallish book with less than one hundred pages of text, but covers the subject very well. Mersereau covers a variety of ways in which post card mailings can be an important, and even a main part of your marketing campaign. Though he doesn't go into it, I can see where these principles would apply very well to political campaigns as well.

                        Mersereau is very adamant that single mailings are pretty much a waste of time and money. His focus here is on repeat mailings using inexpensive mailouts to keep visibility at the forefront of potential customers minds.

                        There are also a few good resources here such as where to have post card printing done, perhaps more cost effectively than your local printer. Not exactly a "powerful read" but a good book on this particular subject.

                        5 out of 5 stars Great resource.......2006-05-18

                        I have written a couple of books that mention the use of Post Cards as part of plethora of tactics that can be used in marketing and personal networking. I have even given examples of how to use Post Cards effectively. What I did not cover was how to use Post Cards as a method for keeping constant contact with existing clients and prospects. This book by Larry Mersereau, CTC is by far one of the most in-depth books on how to effectively use Post Cards as a key marketing tactic for all campaigns.

                        The book covers everything from using your brand wisely to the Magic Formula for creating text for your Post Cards. Larry's insights in how branding works is amazing. I have picked up some excellent pointers on printing Post Cards plus designing them for maximum effectiveness. He even delves into topics such as keeping you in front of the client on a regular basis! In fear of telling you too much, I suggest you get a copy of this great resource and maybe even book Larry for a speaking engagement at the same time. Another great read!

                                            Boom and Bust

                                            Among economic systems, capitalism is the manic-depressive patient. Exuberance, unbridled optimism, and euphoria are followed by gloom, listlessness, and depression. But no matter how often the cycle is repeated the patient always believes the latest boom will last forever, only to feel foolish again when the bubble bursts. And no matter how often the patient reverts to manic behavior when taken off medication, the economic "psychiatric" establishment eventually succumbs to the patient's pleas to be taken off medication during the "ups"-freeing the exuberant economy from policy restraints-only to insist on placing the patient back on meds-re-application of necessary policy protections-when the unmedicated patient "crashes."

                                            The Latest Boom

                                            The truth is that neither part of capitalism's manic-depressive boom-and-bust cycle is "healthy." Like most capitalist booms, the benefits of global liberalization during the 1980s and 1990s were not all they were made out to be. In fact, most people in the world were worse off economically at the end of the latest boom than they had been when it began-that is, even before the over-hyped boom metamorphosed into the global economic crisis of 1997-98. How is this possible, you ask? We were told "the world economy grew at 3 percent a year in the 1980s and 2 percent in the first half of the 1990s," and that "low- and middle-income economies grew more rapidly, averaging 3.4 percent growth in the 1980s and 5 percent in the 1990s." We were assured that "growth in trade from increased trade liberalization that has gone hand-in-hand with increased private capital flows and financial integration,"

                                            I'll be brief - I concur with the other positive reviews. I came across this three or four years ago and I've really remembered it. Having given to a friend, I thought it was important enough to get a replacement copy recently. Another book in the vein is Joseph Stiglitz (Nobel economist), "Globalization and its discontents". Hahnel gives the better job of pointing out WHY some of the discontents happen - like water flowing down hill or balls falling downward through a pinball machine.

                                            Professor Robin Hahnel of the American University in Washington D.C. presents some interesting statistics. He notes that from the early 80's until the Asian economic crises hit in July 1997, much of the world economy was said to be in the midst of an economic "boom" caused by the implementation of neoliberal policies (deregulation, removal of tarrifs and restrictions on capital flows,etc.). Well, according to figures compiled by the Organization for Economic and Commercial Development (OECD), from 1950 to 1973, the year the Bretton Woods system was dismantled and the process of neoliberalization (globalization)began, the average annual gross domestic product per capita of Western European countries was 3.8 percent. From 1973 until 1992, their average annual per capita Gross Domestic product was 1.8 percent. From 1950 until 1973, the average annual per capita gross domestic product in the U.S.A., New Zealand, Australia and Canada was 2.4 percent. From 1973 until 1992 their average annual per capita GDP was 1.4 percent. In Latin America from 1950 to 1973, the average annual per capita GDP was 2.4 percent. From 1973 to 1992 it was .4 percent. The only countries that increased economic efficiency between 1973 and 1992 were the East Asian "tigers" who combined harsh repression of labor, with tax credits and subsidies to export-oriented industries and severe restrictions on inflow and outflow of capital and foreign ownership.

                                            Another statistic. He shows that the annual flow of capital around the world has vastly increased by a large margin since the beginning of neoliberalization in the early 70's; he also shows that whereas before that time, capital was largely used for investment and other long term activities, international capital is now largely used for speculative purposes.

                                            So he shows very clearly that the Bretton Woods period was far more productive for the world economy than the period since 1973. He notes that in the U.S. wages have been stagnant or declining and that while a relatively large number of Americans own stocks, most of it is concentrated in 401k and other retirement accounts, pretty small stuff and that the wealth from the stocks is overwhelmingly concentrated in the top ten percent of the population.

                                            He analyzes what caused the East Asian crises. The East Asian "tigers," under Western pressure, removed restrictions on capital flows, and cut back environmental and labor laws in the late 80's and early 90's and Western capital, mostly speculative, flowed in. Western banks made short term loans to the banks in these countries who made high interest long term loans to export-oriented local businesses. But as one "tiger" deregulated, cut environmental regulations,etc. to compete for Western capital, so did all the others and the boom that many businesses felt was relatively short lived as they faced increasing competition in other countries and were forced to lower prices. They began to have trouble repaying their loans to their local banks who in turn had trouble repaying international creditors. Then Thailand began to wobble and investors, following what Hahnel says is rule one of international finance ",panic first," rapidly sold off its currency, then investors in Malaysia panicked and did the same and then Indonesia and then South Korea..... The economies plumetted and foreign companies were allowed, as a condition for IMF rescue packages, unrestricted access to rush in and buy up local businesess and bargain basement prices. Hahnel presents a particularly interesting article from the New York Times alleging that Robert Rubin and Larry Summers blocked Japanese efforts to create a sort of Asian monetary fund to try to avert the crises at its beginning on the ground that it would interfere with U.S. "influence and interests" and that Japan would not insist on the draconian IMF-style reforms.

                                            He also makes some good points about how the true health of a nation can hardly be measured by the common economic efficiency numbers, noting for instance that a small farmer in the third world ussually lives very poorly and contributes almost no value to the overall economy but still manages to feed himself and his family and is protected by the social safety net of his village. But when his landlord kicks him off the land because the landlord wants to grow expensive export crops and he is pushed into a diseased infested slum in the big city, this will probably increase the GDP.

                                            Unlike the other reviewer, to some extent I really didn't find this book "easy-to-read" and certainly didn't understand everything the learned professor wrote but I feel I have a much more solid grasp of the fundamentals of the economy.

                                            5 out of 5 stars Superb treatment of globalization.......2000-04-08

                                            This is an excellent, easy-to-read, and compelling account of the role international finance played in the Asian Financial Crisis. Hahnel also demonstrates the deficiencies in the IMF response to the crisis. Overall, a superb introduction to globalization, the destructive nature of unregulated capital flows, and the irrationality and instability of the current global economy.

                                            5 out of 5 stars Remarkably comprehensive.......1999-12-25

                                            In a little more than 100 pages Hahnel does an astonishingly impressive job in setting out global economic theory and its current political situation. This is a very informative work.

                                            Hahnel gives us his view of how the global economy works, who benefits from the rules as they currently are, and who loses. He goes on to suggest solutions to what many people perceive as terrible inequality, not only between rich countries and poor countries, but between the wealthy and the not so wealthy across the globe.

                                            He spends some time explaining how the current economic order came about, and what's been happening since "globalization" (as we currently understand it) started about 25 years ago. He explains the Asian financial crisis of 1997/98 and shows how it could happen again.

                                            This book starts with the supposition that one of the primary concerns of those that are wealthy is figuring out ways to hold on to their wealth and increase it if possible.

                                            He does a very lucid job of transitioning from economics to politics and explaining the motivations behind financial and economic political decisions, the effects of which most of us don't understand or see as unimportant.

                                            In short this is a wonderful book for figuring out how globalization effects us, why it's important in our everyday lives and what we can do to make it work for us, the people.

                                            The most engaging book on economics in years, up-to-date and an eye-opening read

                                              "This excellent volume makes a significant contribution both to legal studies and to the history of the Holocaust. The editors deserve special praise for including chapters by Holocaust survivors, assuring that their often-forgotten voices are not lost within the great debate about Holocaust restitution."

                                              "This unique collection is important in bringing together the perspectives of legal practitioners, activists, archivists and historians, negotiators, and survivors. It is remarkably comprehensive. . . . The editors have not shied away from controversy."

                                              "If there is a 'final frontier' in understanding the Holocaust, it is the assessment of international litigation, compensation, and reparations claims. This extraordinary group of contributions thoughtfully reflects on the Holocaust, past and present, as well as what many would call 'imperfect justice.'"

                                              "This collection of essays on Holocaust restitution litigation provides a wonderful overview of the subject.  Bazyler and Alford have assembled the 'A ist' and the result is a most authoritative and complete treatment."

                                              Holocaust Restitution is the first volume to present the Holocaust restitution movement directly from the viewpoints of the various parties involved in the campaigns and settlements. Now that the Holocaust restitution claims are closed, this work enjoys the benefits of hindsight to provide a definitive assessment of the movement.

                                              From lawyers and state department officials to survivors and heads of key institutes involved in the negotiations, the volume brings together the central players in the Holocaust restitution movement, both pro and con. The volume examines the claims against European banks and against Germany and Austria relating to forced labor, insurance claims, and looted art claims. It considers their significance, their legacy, and the moral issues involved in seeking and receiving restitution.

                                                    4 out of 5 stars flawed but essential history.......2004-01-30

                                                    " Desenvolvimento" is a very complex book which might overwhelm the unwary reader. Basically speaking, it is the fullest and most accomplished attempt in English (and, as far as I know, in any other language) to explain to an outsider the turbulent world and history of Brazilian political economy and development strategies, with emphasis in the period from 1940 to 1994, especially the later years. In fact, considering its length (slightly less than 200 pages), it does an outstanding job of it. However, in attempting to describe didactically all aspects of the debate, frequently from the point of view of the Brazilians themselves - a very important element, all too often forgotten-, the work sometimes acquires a somewhat disjointed character, which, ironically, hinder a view of the whole, unless one already knows the subject and the period in a certain depth.

                                                    Although it does have its share of debatable statements and factual errors (the latter, actually, to a lesser degree than most works by brazilianists), I think this book should be required reading by every course in Brazilian studies .

                                                              International debt is a major concern both for the countries involved and for the economies financing it. Stuart Corbridge brings together eighty-eight major articles to provide the most comprehensive and up to date analysis of this key global issue. Articles tracing the origins and development of the international debt crisis are followed by a selection of key regional studies investigating debt in Latin America, Africa and the Pacific. The involvement of banks and financial institutions is also explored.
