The Investing Revolutionaries
Product Description:
Over the past five years, James Whiddon has interviewed some of the world’s brightest, best, and most influential men and women in finance on his popular radio show, The Investing Revolution. While the topics under discussion have ranged widely, the show’s mission has remained constant: Reveal the truth about how Wall Street has rigged the game so that it always wins—at everyone else’s expense—and offer investors an alternative to Wall Street to help them participate directly in free market capitalism and achieve astonishing longterm gains.
In The Investing Revolutionaries, Whiddon distills all of that financial genius into a witty, wise elixir guaranteed to cure what ails your aching portfolio. Indispensable reading for professional and retail investors who want to free themselves from the tyranny of the Wall Street status quo, it delivers the insights of a host of luminaries, including John Bogle, Michael Mauboussin, Mohamed El-Erian, Richard Thaler, and Jeremy Siegel. Each financial powerhouse featured in the book weighs in on the slick marketing ploys, statistical sleights of hand, and psychological button-pushing the denizens of Lower Manhattan routinely employ to separate you from your money. They also offer priceless tips on such topics as
* The advantages of passive versus active portfolio management (how to achieve stellar gains through superdiversification)
* Global investing (is China really a good investment?)
* Avoiding common behavioral traps (running with the herd will get you gored)
Forget about stock picking and market timing. Say farewell to mutual fund gurus and the hyperbolic claims of the technical wizards. Investors of the world, you have nothing to lose but your chains. And now The Investing Revolutionaries provides you with the key.
Summary: Taking the Mystery From Investing
Rating: 5
I just got finished with a book about investing that I highly recommend. It’s called “The Investing Revolutionaries” by James N. Whiddon and Nikki Knotts. The subtitle is “how the world’s greatest investors take on Wall Street and win in any market” and short interviews with all sorts of high end investors that are making money even in this economic downturn are sprinkled throughout the book.
Now, I am not a money guy so when this book showed up on my table I cringed at the prospect of reading it. But I have to say that this book is no mere dry, archaic tome on investing. Instead, it is part lesson on human nature, part an American apologia, along with a guide to investing principles that everyone should know. This book has some timely advice and is written in a straight forward, understandable way and goes some way toward taking out the alchemic mysteries from the world of investing.
Each interview is uplifting and makes one optimistic about America and our economic system. For instance, author Whiddon spoke with Dinesh D’Souza whose enthusiasm for America is almost infectious:
“…I keep hearing people say ‘the rich are getting richer and the poor getting poorer.’ But when I actually looked at American living standards over the past generation — let’s say from World War II, or even 1980 — what you see is that the rich getting richer, and the poor also get richer, although not at the same pace. So, yes, inequality does rise, but it’s rising because more people from the middle class are moving up. So economically, yes. I think the optimist is always right.”
Actually, just about every interview in the book is an infectious, upbeat celebration of America’ system. It all amounts to an admonition against capitalism bashers and an affirmation that money, wealth, and acquisition is good because it is the tide that raises all boats.
I urge seasoned investors and novice alike to read this book.
Summary: The Investing Revolutionaries

This book is most informative and valuable. It will change your attitude toward investing. Everyone should read it.

The Green Book of Mathematical Problems
General Publishing Company, Ltd. | ISBN 0-486-69573-5 | Kenneth Hardy and Kenneth S. Williams | ENGLISH | PDF | 190 PAGES |
INTRODUCTION
There is a famous set of fairy tale books, each volume of which is designated by the colour of its cover: The Red Book, The Blue Book, The Yellow Book, etc. We are not presenting you with The Green Book of fairy stories. but rather a book of mathematical problems. However, the conceptual idea of all fairy stories, that of mystery, search, and discovery is also found in our Green Book. It got its title simply because in its infancy it was contained and grew between two ordinary green file covers.
The book contains lOO problems for undergraduate students training for mathematics competitions, particularly the William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition. Along with the problems come useful hints, and in the end Oust like in the fairy tales) the solutions to the problems. Although the book is written especially for students training for competitions, it will also be useful to anyone interested in the posing and solving of challenging mathematical problems at the undergraduate level.
Many of the problems were suggested by ideas originating in articles and problems in mathematical journals such as Crux Mathematicorum, Mathematics Magazine, and the American Mathematical Monthly, as well as problems from the Putnam competition itself. Where possible, acknowledgement to known sources is given at the end of the book. We would, of course, be interested in your reaction to The Green Book, and invite comments, alternate solutions, and even corrections. We make no claims that our solutions are the "best possible" solutions, but we trust you will find them elegant enough, and that The Green Book will be a practical tool in the training of young competitors. . We wish to thank our publisher, Integer Press; our literary adviser; and our typist, David Conibear, for their invaluable assistance in this project.

Complete Mba For Dummies 2nd Ed
Wiley Publishing, Inc. | ISBN: 978-0-470-19429-4 | Kathleen Allen,PhD, | ENGLISH | PDF | 433 PAGES |
INTRODUCTION
Whether you work for a corporation, a nonprofit organization, or for the government, chances are you’ve considered getting — or have already obtained — a Masters of Business Administration degree, an MBA. Why? Because if you want to get ahead in your organization — or just to do a better job of managing or leading — obtaining an MBA is the best ticket in town. Studies show that MBA graduates — particularly those from the top business schools — are offered significantly higher starting salaries than their counterparts who don’t have MBAs. And that effect carries on throughout the careers of these MBAs. But is it the degree that makes the difference, or is something else at work here? Although that piece of paper with your name and the words “Masters of Business Administration” would mean a lot, what is even more important are the things you’d learn during the course of your MBA studies. Complete MBA For Dummies, 2nd Edition, presents and explains some of the same information that you’d encounter in a typical
MBA program in any highquality business school. Strategic planning, management, accounting, finance, marketing, negotiation — you’ll find the key points here. As you browse this book, keep one thing in mind: There isn’t a monopoly of business skill and talent at the top levels of an organization. Indeed, employees at all levels can (and today are often expected to) play active roles in running their organizations. You can find engaged businesspeople in every part of today’s dynamic organization.
The bottom line: This book provides you with the very best ideas, concepts, and tools taught in today’s top business schools. If you apply them, we’re sure that you’ll see a noticeable difference in your everyday business dealings — a difference that will make you and your business partners even more successful in the future.

Computer Viruses For Dummies
Wiley Publishing, Inc. | ISBN: 0-7645-7418-3 | Peter Gregory | ENGLISH | PDF | 433 PAGES |
INTRODUCTION
It would be difficult to describe the impact of viruses — and their cousins Trojan horses and worms — without resorting to clichés or sensationalism. But after all the hoopla, the bottom line is pretty simple: Malicious people write viruses, and viruses do bad things to our computers. Over the past two decades, viruses have caused billions of dollars in damage and lost productivity — and that’s just the impact on businesses. Viruses hit home computer users much harder because home users usually don’t have information-technology support departments to install and maintain antivirus software and repair damaged computers.
But viruses can be stopped before they stop us, and it’s not hard to stop them. Getting antivirus software is part of the solution. Using antivirus software is just a matter of doing a few simple chores to make sure that everything is working correctly: the better antivirus programs available today do all the regular tasks automatically, and only rarely do they require you to do something special.
If the information on your computer is important to you, then it’s worth protecting. You can do several things to help protect your computer and the information stored in it. The Internet is not exactly a friendly place; in fact it can be quite hostile and unforgiving to those who are unable to protect themselves. But since you have either purchased or borrowed this book, you’re on the verge of being able to get rid of the viruses on your computer and keep them away for good. It’s all within your grasp!

Dictionary of Engineering-Second Edition
McGraw-Hill Co. Inc. | ISBN: 0-07-141050-3 | Mark D. Licker | ENGLISH | PDF | 655 PAGES |
INTRODUCTION
The McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Engineering provides a compendium of more than 18,000 terms that are central to the various branches of engineering and related fields of science. The coverage in this Second Edition is focused on building construction, chemical engineering, civil engineering, control systems, design engineering, electricity and electronics, engineering acoustics, industrial engineering, mechanics and mechanical engineering, systems engineering, and thermodynamics. Many new entries have been added since the previous edition with others revised as necessary. Many of the terms used in engineering are often found in specialized dictionaries and glossaries; this Dictionary, however, aims to provide the user with the convenience of a single, comprehensive reference.
All of the definitions are drawn from the McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, Sixth Edition (2003). Each definition is classified according to the field with which it is primarily associated; if it is used in more than one area, it is idenfified by the general label [ENGINEERING]. The pronunciation of each term is provided along with synonyms, acronyms, and abbreviations where appropriate. A guide to the use of the Dictionary appears on pages vii and viii, explaining the alphabetical organization of terms, the format of the book, cross referencing, and how synonyms, variant spellings, abbreviations, and similar information are handled. The Pronunciation Key is given on page xi. The Appendix provides conversion tables for commonly used scientific units as well as listings of useful mathematical, engineering, and scientific data. It is the editors’ hope that the Second Edition of the McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Engineering will serve the needs of scientists, engineers, students, teachers, librarians, and writers for high-quality information, and that it will contribute to scientific literacy and communication.

Women, Art, And Technology
Although women have been at the forefront of art and technology creation, no source has adequately documented their core contributions to the field. Women, Art, and Technology, which originated in a Leonardo journal project of the same name, is a compendium of the work of women artists who have played a central role in the development of new media practice. The book includes overviews of the history and foundations of the field by, among others, artists Sheila Pinkel and Kathy Brew; classic papers by women working in art and technology; papers written expressly for this book by women whose work is currently shaping and reshaping the field; and a series of critical essays that look to the future. Artist contributors include computer graphics artists Rebecca Allen and Donna Cox; video artists Dara Birnbaum, Joan Jonas, Valerie Soe, and Steina Vasulka; composers Cecile Le Prado, Pauline Oliveros, and Pamela Z; interactive artists Jennifer Hall and Blyth Hazen, Agnes Hegedus, Lynn Hershman, and Sonya Rapoport; virtual reality artists Char Davies and Brenda Laurel; net artists Anna Couey, Monika Fleischmann and Wolfgang Strauss, Nancy Paterson, and Sandy Stone; and choreographer Dawn Stoppiello. Critics include Margaret Morse, Jaishree Odin, Patric Prince, and Zoe Sofia.
Women Over 50 Psychological Perspectives
A woman’s middle age had traditionally been regarded as a time of loss and decline. But in the wake of the women's movement and other societal and cultural events, a profound shift has taken place. Far from being marginalized, midlife women stand at the forefront of a great transformation of cultural perceptions and attitudes. They are rejecting stereotypes, embracing new opportunities, and forming what this important book terms "a new collective middle-aged identity." Women over 50: Psychological Perspectives analyzes the challenges, benefits, coping strategies, problems, and accomplishments associated with the midlife experience. Ten chapters present the state of research (and correct longstanding myths) regarding significant aspects of middle-aged women's lives: Mind-body: illness, body image, exercise Love, romance, and sexuality Friendship and support systems "The sandwich generation" Re-creating the role of grandmothers Retirement and financial stability Using personal empowerment to empower others Quality of life and future directions Women over 50 bridges a major knowledge gap in the feminist-psychology literature, making it an essential resource for clinicians and advanced students. It balances optimism and realism about older women’s lives—and younger women’s futures.

100 Things You Need to Know About Microsoft Windows Vista
Tired of clawing your way through computer books that start at the beginning of recorded history just to find one tiny nugget of information you need? Tired of wrenching your back to pull that massive Windows tome off your bookshelf? Tired of wishing you could find a simple answer to what should be a simple problem? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then 100 Things You Need to Know about MicrosoftA ® Windows VistaaA A is just the book you've been looking for. Chock full of timesaving tips, heady solutions, and expert know-how, this book doesn't break the bank nor does it require a Bowflex body to hoist it around. Inside you'll find step-by-step help for the 100 things every Windows user needs to know when making the big switch between Windows XP and Vista. Even if you're brand new to Windows (meaning Vista is your first-ever operating system), you'll find the advice here indispensable. In this book, we assume, for instance, that you really don't give a hoot about what TCP/IP is. We're betting you just want to get your Internet connection up and running, and leave the techy muck to the propeller heads.
Want all the cool new cutting-edge features and interface Windows Vista offers? Well, before you run out and buy the software, you need to ensure your system will support it! We walk you through, step-by-step, how to manually check if your PC and other hardware and software are supported for use with Windows Vista. We show you how to perform common upgrade tasks, if needed, before you install Vista. In addition, we provide tips and procedures on backing up your data. * Having to choose between five different versions (yes, Vista comes in FIVE flavors!) can be confusing! Don't sweat it, though–we've got you covered. We show you how to decide which flavor of Vista is best suited to you! Then we walk you through installing and setting up Vista for the very first time. * Next we dig into the new Vista interface, which is quite a change from the old XP! Then we give you a tour of the many new and enhanced features. While you might fancy yourself a wicked-smart Windows user, don't skip this section! We're positive you'll find things you didn't know that will help you make Vista do thy bidding. * Don't like the slick new Vista interface? (Macintosh, anyone?)
We show you how to harness the power of Vista while keeping the look and feel of your XP. Who says change has to be painful? * After you have the basics nailed, we then show you some of the cool things you can do with Vista, from customizing its performance, to disabling annoying security controls, to connecting to a wireless network.
