1.Moments of TruthMoments of Truth
from Collins Business
Price: $10.40

Customer Review:
This short book is an examination of three companies that Jan Carlzon worked for and how he turned them around. The first is unremarkable and is not relevant to his later insights. He was responsible for a company which was a subsidiary of a airline which sold holidays. He reduced costs to get it... more info

from WN
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:
After reading the 1994 book "ABBA-The Complete Recording Sessions" by Carl Magnus Palm, I thought I read all I ever would about how ABBA recorded some of their best known songs. However, this coffee table size book delves into greater detail on the origins of the 22 ABBA songs in the worldwide smash... more info

4.Ingmar Bergman: Interviews (Conversations With Filmmakers Series) (Conversations With Filmmakers Series)Ingmar Bergman: Interviews (Conversations With Filmmakers Series) (Conversations With Filmmakers Series)
from Univ Pr of Mississippi (Trd)
Price: $13.60

Customer Review:
Toward the end of his 1971 conversation with Richard Meryman, easily the best interview in this collection, Bergman says that "to make a film is to try to open up the roof--so we can breathe" (p. 112). This is as good a one-line characterization of Bergman's project as I know. Bergman's films defy... more info

Customer Review:
I have been married to a Swede for 25 Years and have been regularly visiting her friends and family for that time. This book offers a nonjudgemental evaluation of why Swedes are the way they are and, of course, why they are not like us. I read this book just before a business meeting and enjoyed... more info

Customer Review:
I love Absolut ad's and have always wanted to get one. They are expensive new , so I got an used copy from an amazon seller. It came quickly and I flipped through the book for about 20 min when it arrived 2 days later. I love all the ads and they are all so clever. I might not get some of the modern... more info

from Thames & Hudson
Price: $25.51

Customer Review:
A rich variety of houses, some grander than the others, but all well-to-do peoples dwellings. Some of the manors featured aren't very well known even in Sweden, but they certainly deserve their place here. The few I do miss are featured in "The Swedish Room" e.i. Lay-out-wise it is by now perhaps a... more info

9.Abba: The Complete Guide to Their MusicAbba: The Complete Guide to Their Music
from Omnibus Press
Price: $6.95

Customer Review:
This book is an ABBA fan's dream: lots of arcane details with some gossipy tidbits tossed in, all rolled together with a list of every ABBA song ever recorded. Even though my ABBA-fandom was at its heights about 30 years ago, it's still a pleasure to read about each of ABBA's many songs. This book... more info

from University of Minnesota Press
Price: $15.61

Customer Review:

The cause that I decided to grab that book written by Barry Paris is quite obvious. I live in Russia and all the information in Russian Garbo is concerned with can be generated to the following: Garbo was born a poor and wretched girl in Sweden, discovered by Maurice Stiller, went with him to... more info
