Excellent
This is an excellent look at how D.C. works from the inside. If you ever wanted to know why passing a bill isn't as simple as what you learned in high school govt., this is the best description of the human element in politics that I have ever read. The author vividly describes how the people and pressures in Washington create the practical (rather than ideal) government which leads the U.S. I would recommend this book to anyone with even the slightest interest in US politics. It is slightly dated (and thus a good history book for the 50's and 60's), but that doesn't hurt its value to the current reader. ... Read more

Product Description
This is a treatment of the personal and normal, expected, changes in people's lives - for example, birth, death, illness, marriage, divorce, unemployment, moves, job shifts, graduation and promotion. The book focuses particularly on those short, sharp changes that we call life transitions - the term meaning to "journey through" (usually to something hitherto unknown). The author emphasizes two points, the first being how we can cope with change in a comfortable and productive manner and the second being how we can welcome change as an energizer and as a defence against boredom. Some of the topics covered are, viewing change as a positive event, changing negative thoughts, methods for managing stress and choosing and prioritizing activities. ... Read more
