Customer Review: Nice girls dont get the corner office is a big corner of negativity. If you want to feel aweful just give this CD a listen. Lois Frankel put me to sleep. She sounds like the the unseen teacher in the charlie brown series. "Mistake number 6854984742 dont pick your nose the board room...wah wah wah."... more info
Customer Review: This book is patronizing and outright ridiculous. The author repeatedly drones on about the significance of the character Charlotte from the children's book Charlotte's Web. It's absolute drivel. If your literacy level exceeds the fifth grade, don't waste your money. It's not even... more info
Customer Review: Every woman should read this book before asking for a raise. The studies conducted are a harsh, yet empowering reminder that men often get raises, promotions, projects at work, etc. because they are not afraid to request what they think they deserve (or don't deserve!). I've recommended this book... more info
Customer Review: Global Woman: Nannies, Maids, and Sex Workers in the New Economy, edited by Barbara Ehrenreich and Arlie Russell Hochschild, Metropolitan Books, Holt & Co, 2002. Most of us are well aware of the patterns of illegal immigration which bring numerous undocumented workers to the US and other... more info

Customer Review: I think that the authors have set a new baseline for discussion and insight in the quest for women's workplace equality, and beyond. The scientific foundation for their analysis finally moves the subject past anecdotal and self-reinforcing generalizations. The book provides a better... more info
Customer Review: This book starts out by breaking the rules of "business books" and yet shows readers why they must pay attention to some of the rules of business. In Chapter 2 the authors stress the need to have a real plan and help readers answer two extremely important questions: What Are You Selling? and Who Are... more info
Customer Review: I read this book in 2000 when it was first published. It is a quick read, and it is entertaining. What brings the book to mind again today is that earlier this week I used one of the author's stories to illustrate a point I was making when presenting information to upper management at a chemical... more info
Customer Review: I'm writing this review because my local bookstore in San Diego carries it, much to my surprise and disgust. I read it when it came out and supposed it would soon die a well-deserved death and go to remainder hell, but here it is, still being supported by the likes of my local Borders--although they... more info
Customer Review: This book is great but you gotta be ready to work. It's one of those books full of exercises and things to do to actually help you accomplish each step. I'm still in the process :)
