4-0 out of 5 stars Book addresses hot public personnel management topics
The editor of this textbook (and contributor) was also the individual who taught the class for which I used this book. Some topics addressed include sexual harrassment in the workplace, changes in the union climate in the public workforce, TQM, issues of diversity,and the merit system and its impact on the quality of the workforce. This is a good introductory book which gives broad, general insight into - as the book's title suggests - "current concerns, future challenges." ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN KINDRED SOULS

5-0 out of 5 stars Inspiring for young creatives
The other evening I descended my stairs to find my husband snuggled on the couch with a picture book and my 3 year old son, reading. This is not unusual. What was unusual was that my thirteen year old daughter sat with them listening intently as well. The book, not surprisingly, was Louisa May and Mr. Thoreaus Flute. Read more

I have had the pleasure of studying under Dr. Berman for the past three years in the MPA program at Central Florida. He never failed to teach me something new, and the book itself is a testament to the teaching style heemploys. An easy read, with little jargon usage, makes this a must forthose of us toiling in the nonprofit sector. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Not Enough Information
Read this book to find a federal job but not necessarily to get a federal job. The book emphasizes that the odds of success hinge primarily on the "hidden" job market, ie. jobs that are essentially internally pre-ordained. It does not give substantial or pragmatic advice on how to overcome this obstacle, such as: what are the likely venues for networking with federal personnel; how exactly does one arrange informational interviews with federal personnel; what techniques have succeeded for other applicants, etc. While the book does have information on locating and applying for jobs, most of it is found easily on the Internet.

5-0 out of 5 stars I should have had a copy of this book!
All would-be office-seekers should read this book, and then they will notbe disappointed, as I was. Take a tip from me, Charles Guiteau-- don't baseyour hopes of a cushy patronage position ona limp andshake fromsomebody's brother-in-law. Use this book to help you prepare a resume, makethe right calls, see the right people, and get that Federal position youwant! ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars In depth collection of essays on U.S. presidency
The Presidency and the Political Stream is a collection of twenty essays edited by Michael Nelson, who is a professor at Rhodes College.Each chapter explores a different aspect of the relationship between the presidency and the U.S. political system.This book is recommended to serious scholars of the U.S. presidency.

5-0 out of 5 stars It looks boring, but is isn't
This is a collection of essays on the presidency. It doesn't look like an interesting book, but many of the pieces are in fact quite interesting. The book covers many different aspects of the presidency, and one can learn a lot merely by reading this book. Although it is definitely an academic book, it is not so dry that it cannot be read by those that are not involved with academics.

This book was required for a Ph.D. course I'm attending at the Universityof Alabama.Trust me I do not read these books for fun.Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars nothing new
Using the over-used word "creative" as a shield, "Tools for Innovators" rehashes common-sense and stale ideas as exciting new methods for public managers. Current and aspiring managers should avoid this platitude-ridden guide: It will not improve your managerial skills, only waste time.

3-0 out of 5 stars Creative Popular Tools
This book sums up the some popular management tools to be used in public organizations with the intent of helping them to meet citizens demands of highest quality service. Including Strategic Planning, Total Quality Management, Re-Engineering, Benchmarking, Outsourcing, many approachments (or tools) that can be useful in restructuring public organizations are told in this valuable book. Readers who want to understand the basic principles of popular management tools developed for private sector organizations (but can be applied to public sector)should read this book. One of the obvious weaknesses of the book is its cases which were not well-developed. Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars See what the Presidents were thinking.
The Presidents' Inaugurals are worth reading.There are few similarities between them.Some recount history.Some are long, some are short.Some are eloquent while others use plain language.Some give specific policy proposals while others focus on the big picture.It is interesting to see what the Presidents wanted the country to focus on. It is also interesting to compare their predictions to what actually occurred.It is interesting that Warren G. Harding and Jimmy Carter both quoted from the same Old Testament passage in the book of Micah.

4-0 out of 5 stars accessing to american history...
'The Inaugural Address of the Preidents' is one of the few nonficton books I've read.I read it not wanting to be one-sided regarding books(most books I have read are fiction), and trying to get a clearer image on thepresidents I have not known well.This book, besides the inauguraladdresses, has a short writing about the president in each election. Theinaugural address may be just an address, but it also showed the differingview of values of each presidents, while sketching the hitory of america,if briefly. I'm not an american, and so the vocabulary was a little hardfor me, and it is of course not what you would call a fun book but all inall, it was a thumbs up. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excuses that really work!
This has to be the greatest book on beating the system I've ever read and I don't just mean for speeding. The excuses here are funny and imaginative and can easily be adapted for all kinds of situations. You'll definitely find several that will fit your personality and be believable. You've got to give this book a try, it'll be a lifesaver!

5-0 out of 5 stars Boy-OH-Boy Do These Excuses Work!
I have bad luck and always get pulled over. It's so unfair! So I decided to help myself and got Alex's book. The "hair spray trick" has worked for me now twice in a row. And there's so many more great excuses - that really work. "Speeding Excuses That Work" is worth every penny. If you haven't gotten your copy yet, you're a sittin' duck!

5-0 out of 5 stars My neck hurts from nodding "YES!"
My husband's a cop so I found this book both helpful AND humorous. It is full of really great excuses that will work ... especially the ones for women. Protect yourself and don't miss the must-read bonus section on "Safety Tips For Women." ... Read more
