2.The 7 Habits of Highly Effective PeopleThe 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
from Free Press

Customer Review:
I agree with the other commenters who have given this book negative reviews and who appear to be more critical thinkers than the author himself.
This book was clearly written on auto-pilot; it is constructed on a string of cliches and half-conceived insights and analysis. It is entirely clear... more info

I highly recommend this book for any aspect of sailing knowledge.

from Berkley
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
If you have never read any of Clancy's books before, this is not a bad place to start. I have not read many of his works myself, but it appears to me that this is chronologically the first to take place in the series on John Clark and Jack Ryan. This book for me was one of those rare effortless... more info
