What the CEO Wants You to Know: The Little Book of Big Business by Ram Charan, ISBN 0609608398
The universal laws of business success . . . no matter whether you are selling fruit from a stand or running a Fortune 500 company.
Have you ever noticed that the business savvy of the world's best CEOs seems like a kind of street smarts? They sense where the opportunities are and how to take advantage of them. And their companies make money consistently, year after year.
How different is it to run a big company than to sell fruit from a cart or run a small shop in a village? In essence, not very, according to Ram Charan. From his childhood in India, where he worked in his family's shoe shop, to his education at Harvard Business School and his daily work advising many of the world's best CEOs, Ram understands business as few can.
The best CEOs have a knack for bringing the most complex business down to the fundamentals -- the same fundamentals of the family shoe shop. They have business acumen -- the ability to focus on the basics and make money for the company.

What the CEO Wants You to Know captures these insights and explains in clear, simple language how to do what great CEOs do instinctively and persistently:
* Understand the basic building blocks of a business and use them to figure out how your company makes money and operates as a total business.
* Decide what to do, despite the clutter of day-to-day business and the complexity of the real world.
Many people spend more than a hundred thousand dollars on an MBA without learning to pull these pieces of the puzzle together. Many others lack a formal business education and feel shut out from the executive suite. What the CEO Wants You to Know takes the mystery out of business and shows the secrets ofsuccess used by business legends like Jack Welch of GE.

Multiple Comparisons: Theory and Methods by Jason Hsu, ISBN 0412982811
Multiple comparisons are the comparisons of two or more treatments. These may be treatments of a disease, groups of subjects, or computer systems, for example. Statistical multiple comparison methods are used heavily in research, education, business, and manufacture to analyze data, but are often used incorrectly. This book exposes such abuses and misconceptions, and guides the reader to the correct method of analysis for each problem. Theories for all-pairwise comparisons, multiple comparison with the best, and multiple comparison with a control are discussed, and methods giving statistical inference in terms of confidence intervals, confident directions, and confident inequalities are described. Applications are illustrated with real data. Included are recent methods empowered by modern computers. Multiple Comparisons will be valued by researchers and graduate students interested in the theory of multiple comparisons, as well as those involved in data analysis in biological and social...

From People's War to People's Rule: Insurgency, Intervention, and the Lessons of Vietnam by Timothy J. Lomperis, ISBN 0807845779
Timothy Lomperis persuasively argues the ironic point that the lessons of American involvement in Vietnam are not to be found in any analysis of the war by itself. Rather, he proposes a comparison of the Vietnam experience with seven other cases of Western intervention in communist insurgencies during the Cold War era: China, Indochina, Greece, the Philippines, Malaya, Cambodia, and Laos.

The Old Curiosity Shop (1841), with its awesomely malignant villain, Quilp, and its harrowing depiction of the fate of his victims, Little Nell and her grandfather, was for its initial Victorian readership--and remains for us today--a richly representative example of his genius.
