Description: Great Consulting Challenges: And How to Surmount Them shows how consultants can use the wisdom gleaned from Weiss's own practice and from other seasoned members of the profession to help overcome persistent problems and next-level challenges. Weiss explains that as consultants' careers develop and become more sophisticated and complex, so do the challenges they encounter. For example, the question of price competition occurs at every level of the consulting business, yet the techniques for astutely resolving the issue can be vastly different for the veteran consultant as compared to the novice who is merely trying to establish a new business. In this book, Alan Weiss discusses the great consulting challenges in key areas such as marketing, selling, delivery, and practice management and offers practical advice for overcoming common problems and learning to thrive as a consultant.

It features 600 lists on a diverse range of subjects, from blockbuster movies and music to stellar universities, from crime and punishment to popular drinks. Find out which stars of stage and screen shone the brightest and which terrestrial animals weigh the most.

Description: Global Energy is a rapid, ever-rising river that we have not been able to control.____ This handbook describes the flow of global energy, from initial production to its end-use. Everything is explained in a consistent set of easy to understand energy units - the BTU.____ This handbook will show why the conventional wisdom for solving our energy problems has not been working. Conservation and efficiency have not been able to keep up with the ever increasing global demand for energy.____ You will understand why alternative energy sources have limitations that go beyond technology. Solar, wind, geothermal - they can't do nearly as much to solve our energy problems as we would like to think.____ You will begin to question everything you read and hear about global energy, asking yourself, "Even if everyone actually did this, how much energy would be saved at the global level?"____ John has long considered himself to be an environmentalist, albeit a pragmatic one, who always asks, "What does this mean at the global level, how much will this really save?" Answering this question led to the writing of the handbook.____ He worked for over forty years in aerospace engineering since graduating from San Jose State University. During his career the considerations of power, energy and system costs were everyday issues. He is now retired, but is working part-time in systems cost modeling and analyses.

Description: Life itself and today's hottest science are examined in The Handy Biology Answer Book. From the newsworthy (What are stem cells?

You’ll find answers to such intriguing questions as: What is cell cloning? What is DNA and RNA? When and how did cells first evolve? Can two blue-eyed people have a brown-eyed child? How serious a disease is influenza? Do overweight children have a greater risk of being overweight adults? What is an atom? Why are some fats “good”? and others “bad”? Why do humans need cholesterol?
