Review Greed is Good: The Capitalist Pig Guide to Investing / HarperCollins Publishers:Hoenig is the voice of finance for Generation X - ForbesMoney Is Important. Money Is a Catalyst. Money Makes Things Happen. You want to get in on the action, but haven't got a clue where to start. More than anything, you are unique. You need to make your own decisions about what's best for your future. How do I know? Call it karma. Besides, if you've pulled out an audio called Greed is Good, I can already tell you are not “run-of-the-mill. ” So here's the deal: I'm a 23-year-old, obsessed with money and the stock market, radio talk show host, commodities trader. I've traded and made money in everything from mutual funds to stocks. [+]Greed is Good will tell you everything you need to know about the major financial “products” out there: from mutual funds to money markets. You'll also learn some soft-ball money management skills, the types of tips that will help you save what you've already made. Money is important, but I think this audio makes an oftentimes dry subject a mite more palatable. I had to sit through the boring stuff, but there's no reason you should. Bottom line? This audio is a practical but punchy ride through the money maze. And if I found my way out - so can you. Read by the author on one cassette. Greed, in Jonathan Hoenig's estimation, is passion. It's lust. It has nothing to do with single-minded accumulation and everything to do with freedom, with the ability to pursue the things that make you happy. Hoenig received his first real introduction to greed while working at Starbucks as a teenager. He found that the money he earned after buying a few shares of Starbucks stock greatly exceeded what he made as an after-school wage slave. While in college, he started a radio show called Capitalist Pig, which now plays in 18 states. Greed has been good to Hoenig. In Greed Is Good, he wants to share the wealth with his post-baby-boom generation by preaching the gospel of investing. But investing isn't just about choosing mutual fund A over mutual fund B. It's about not spending money on useless stuff, leaving more money for the things that are meaningful. Hoenig understands how frills like designer clothes, CDs, and, yes, Starbucks coffee can seem like necessities, when really they're lifestyle add-ons that can be eliminated. Doing without such excesses can be painful, but that's something else Hoenig believes in; not only is greed good, so is discipline, sacrifice, and self-denial. Greed is written in an eclectic style that includes Yiddish phrases, street slang, and generational cultural references ("Whatchu talkin' 'bout, Willis?"), which serves two purposes: it's very entertaining to read, and renders the often-dry message of "Save and invest" infinitely more palatable. -Lou Schuler.

Review Humour, Organization and Work / Routledge:This book explores humor and comedy in organizational settings. It aims to explore the relationship between humor and organization in a nuanced and radical way, one which reflects the richness and complexity of the relationship. It takes the view that humor and comedy are pervasive, entrenched and highly meaningful aspects of human experience and that they are as significant in organizational and work contexts as they are in any other domain of human activity. The book examines the relationship between humor, organizations and work in three different but related domains. Firstly it considers how humor is constructed, enacted and responded to in organizational settings. Secondly, it focuses on how organizations and work are represented cosmetically in various types of popular culture media such as television, film and books. Finally, it examines organizational and work situations where there is a more explicit relationship between the comedic and organization/work. An exciting and controversial text, Humour Organization and Work will appeal to students of all levels as well as anyone engaged in humor at work.

Review Using Research in Organizations: A Guide to Successful Application (SAGE Library of Social Research) / Sage Publications, Inc:Applied social research is a resource as yet largely untapped by the very organizations that could most benefit from it. In order to discover the ways in which research can best be brought into social programmes, the author went directly to organizations that have made effective use of research - in this case British Social Services departments - which are uniquely appropriate for this kind of study as they are staffed with researchers as well as administrators. The answers of key informants, synthesized with existing utilization research, provides the first comprehensive attempt to define the concerns and techniqes of an important new focus of study. 'In this short volume, Rothman has done researchers of all types a favor by cogently summarizing the literature on research utilization as well as presenting many explicit guidelines for enhancing the research utilization. Both basic researchers as well as applied researchers will find the book of interest and direct applicability. ' - Sociology, Jul/Aug 1981.
