Professor Bernhard has written a lucid yet dense explanation of phenomenon that, while much commented on, remains unexplained: Central Bank Independence. Considering the relationship between legislators, parties and central bank independence, Bernhard inserts politics back into a topic where it was previously neglected.

A valuable contribution to political economy and comparative politics.

With crisis situations mounting all around us in the US and the world, there's no better time to learn how to handle crisis. Everyday I read about a new event in the papers, whether it be in the Middle East or at home on 9/11. I loved this book because it taught me a lot about crisis and business management. It was also exciting to read as it was written like a mystery novel. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in business management, dealing with everday crises, history, politics, economics, high schools, interesting careers, inventions, saving money, learning about innovative solutions to challenging problems in the real world, or anyone who enjoys a good story!

This book is a wonderfull book that teaches how life choices affect your financial future. The chapters are well written and easy to read. The author gives plenty of examples of how people get themselves into debt and how they can avoid getting into debt by learning from other peoples' mistakes. I read the book in one night and loved it!!!!!!!!

After reading Larry Burkett's fantasies ("Coming Economic Earthquake", "Illuminati", and "Thor Conspiracy" to name a few), it was a real joy to read a book written by an individual with knowledge of macroeconomics and not merely a personal financial advisor. Burkett's books are thinly veiled conspiracy tripe and Sherman Smith's book is a well-written and thoroughly informed antedote to Burkett's far right wing conspiracy nonsense. Burkett's predictions have already been proven false, so that is all the more reason to look to a sane approach such as Smith takes. Highly recommended!

This book is incredible. It offers a real step by step system that anyone can use. I highly rcommend it to all my friends. I am using the system to fund my college education and create my own financial freedom!

I wanted my wedding to be beautiful and classic but also uniquely us. I found this to be very difficult, particularly with the fact that my fiancée and I were paying for our wedding ourselves and were on a limited budget. Cindy's book was full of great ideas that kept a budget in mind. I had a lot of wedding books that I had bought or had been given, and they all pretty much said the same things. However, The Frugal Bride was, thankfully, much different! It had lots of creative and fun ideas and really helped us make our day special.

Dr. Wood's Christian guide to managing money is refreshingly simple and very well written. "Getting a Grip on Your Money" tackles the tough financial questions and delivers plain, easy to follow advice, relying on the principle that the perfect is the enemy of the good. This book is a must have for anyone, Christian or non-, who wants to make the most of their financial resources.

I always have and always will recommend any and all of the Guerilla books written by Levinson and Rubin. They are informative and give pratical applicable ideas for new business owners.

This book is for those who think our life is too short to get rich using conventional ways of investing. The techniques described in this book are bold, aggressive and very creative. It's not for regular financial investors, it's for those who aspire to become financial geniuses. Someone wise once said: "Knowledge is Power". This book provides just that.

This book is loaded with both ideas and step-by-step plans on creative financing for your real estate investments, your own business or for any profitable venture you can imagine. One of the best books on getting cash when you need it!
