I am Balinese, have a restaurant and love food.

Rice is the most important food in Southeast Asia. It is the basis of all of our dishes and in Bali is regarded as sacred.

The recipes in this book are excellent.

The writing style is clear and there are beautiful line drawings.

Particularly interesting is a long introductory survey of rice throughout the world, including a number of myths, by Sri Owen's husband, Roger Owen.

I have no hesitation in recommending this book.

Part of the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research's "AEI Studies on Services Trade Negotiations" series, The Doha Round And Financial Services Negotiations by Sydney J.

A scholarly and technical treatise, written especially for advanced economics students and field professionals.

If you or people working for you are planning to do business with the Japanese, this book is an excellent, quick and essential guide to understanding the business customs and culture of Japan...don't leave home with out it. I saved both time and money, thanks to Mr. Leppert's knowledge and the references he provides in this book. Read it on the plane and by the time you land, your confidence will be recognized by the Japanese ...from cab drivers to CEO's. Good Hunting, CDH

critical, diverse and applicable - a good read.

Economics texts will never make for good bedtime reading, at least not for most of us. But Houck's book is remarkable in its thorough and brief overview of agricultural trade. All of the essential elements are here - tariffs, quotas, specialization, comparative advantage, subsidies, proportionality - as well as a look at how these tools apply to agricultural trade in particular. Minimal prior knowledge is assumed; Houck's explanations are substantial but accessible, straightforward but never dumbed down. As befits an introductory text, each chapter is amply supplied with suggestions for further reading. While it's not long on theory or depth, this book serves as an excellent reference for understanding the basic questions and problems of trade. Recommended for any intermediate economics student!

Gilligan's clear writing and fascinating historical evidence make his arguments compelling and totally convincing.

A very interesting book about the US relations with Portugal from Kennedy to Ford administrations.

An outstanding read! Clearly written, I devoured this book in three nights, have since re-read it twice and constantly refer to it for reference.

I also bought the book as a gift for the CEO of an Internet Security startup firm. Interestingly, he left it on a plane by mistake and promptly bought a new copy so as not to go without!

Golis outlines the key elements for structuring the V.C. business plan, which takes a bit of effort to get straight but is well worth incorporating his elements in a formal Business Plan.

As a reality check for other buyers, I used this book as a constant reference source in building a submission for Stage 1&2 V.C. raising (which has now successfully been accepted and is in the 'heads of agreement stage' for $500,000 in funds placement).

The book does not present company management issues. Its focus is on the Entrepreneur and Venture Capital raising issues.

Its one of the rare books existing about EU amd marketing.Is very well presented material helps even amateurs about the subject to understand what a marketer should do and consider when he is making business in E.U

I have accessed the item through Cornell University Library. Source of extremely interesting information on wage levels, employee compensation and informal labor in Azerbaijan. Even touches the issues of labor union control and outmigration. Valuable resource for the researches of social relations in Azerbaijan.
