This book is the car buyers prophet. It shows you all of the stats and tells you what's good and what's not. It also provides a complete guide on pricing and whether or not your getting ripped off or a bargain.

I would like to know the number of new cars sold in the United States in 1998 or during the last 12 months. The number of small cars sold in The United States in 1998 and the number of large and medium-sized cars sold in the United States. Note the comparative growth rates.

The author's experience is evident. The process of medical billing, as presented in Ms. Holmes' book, is enhanced by caveats and the how-to of corrective action(s). This is a valuable resource and reference tool.

This book guides you through every aspect of developing and maintaining a Voluntary Compliance program. It begins with forms development to capture the required information and takes you all the way through to retrospective audit. Legal issues are highlighted with special icons to enable you to identify them easily. Seasoned billers and new billers alike will find this book to be a very valuable resource.

I am a factoring officer for a real estate investment company in Knoxville, TN. This guide to factoring has helped me out immensely in just getting started in a profitable, and wide open industry. It starts with the most basic facts, like just what factoring simply is. It then covers some of the most difficult and complex aspects of the industry as well. I am just out of college and this has helped me a lot in my new position. The book can be a little wordy at some times, but it has far better descriptions that the finance textbooks that one would find in college.

The book is excellent if your telecom is on the east coast and you only care about local telephone service. It is very detailed about problems with Customer Service Records but says nothing about wireless telecom, and does not adequately cover data networking, or long distance. For a more comprehensive resource, I recommend "Telecommunications Cost Management" by Strother.

Brosnan and Messina write an excellent guide to managing costs for urban east coast businesses (i.e. New York). Much of their stuff is super-technical and a little impractical for the average telecom manager. And they don't say much about contract negotiation, RFPs, and wireless services (which can be fairly expensive nowadays).

For a much simpler perspective I suggest the book by S.C. Strother "Telecommunications Cost Management". It costs more than this book, but its well worth it. It is well-organized and more comprehensive. You get the feeling Brosnan and Messina are telecom lawyers, while Strother seems to be a telecom insider.

If you are interested in the concept of reducing your telecommunications expenses this book is an excellent start. If you are interested in a career in telecommunication consulting reviewing telecom expense this is a very basic document. The content covers about 50% of the most common billing irregularities.

A better guide to telecommunications concepts and language is "The Essential Guide to Telecommunications" (Second Edition).

The authors point out that they are most familiar with Bell Atlantic and Ameritech CSRs (Customer Service Records). This limits the information made available in conveying the differences in format and content between ILECs.
