A history of the Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII
The women pilots of WW II are the greatest.when they had no voting rights, take the call to help defend
this country.. Some of them like Aline Rhonie Hofheimer of Warren, NJ decided that she too wanted to help. Many of these
women were well to do but had a big purpose. Aline was one of the older ones being born in 1909. She was the only one to fly both in the WAFS and the ATA.. or so I'm told. In any event,
I can not get enough of books about these women and Clipped Wings
,by telling this story has to be considered a gift from the past.
Wonderful and informative reclamationOf special importance is its amplication of feminist military critiques to an actual branch of the military, proving what before had been strictly theory. The best chapters are those that include numerous examples of media sexism and the ridiculous thought patterns of Congress--two elements of culture that unfortunately still impact women who enter male-dominated fields.

Whealey ist verrückt!1) His personal hygiene is poor. He maintains a constant foul-smelling body odor. Somedays, his normally white hair has a yellowish hue to it. People make a point not to stand too close to him while he is eating, for fear of being bombarded with food particles.
2) At public lectures, he asks the most ridiculous questions (such as "does the Brezhnev Doctrine really exist?" when he teaches International Diplomacy and should know better).
3) He wanders the college and town like a homeless beggar. His pants are usually barely clinging to his posterior, and he has accidentally mooned more than one person.
Thus, the book may be fine, but the man is just a fruitcake.
A Great Book By A Great Political Thinker!Hitler and Spain is a very good book and is also very well researched. After reading it, I learned about many events and key people in the Spanish Civil War that I was not aware of prior to reading Hitler and Spain. Also, the footnotes at the end of the book are very well documented and are worth taking a look at. Dr. Whealey, if you are reading this in Athens Ohio, my hat is off to you for writing such a wonderful book. I am very excited about your new book on the American intervention in kosovo coming out this year.

This is a ridiculous, trivial book.
Excellent Book for REAL Practitioners in the ArtWhat this book did was enable me to enhance my business process and better articulate this extremely difficult line of work. For example, the business process outlined on page 58 is crucial in that it identifies several "Stop" or check points with clients. Key in this type of consulting, especially where steps you take as a consultant may directly add risk to your client, it is important to know where to draw the line and involve them for a decision. The authors clarify where the key decision points are when it comes to going from passive to semi-active, to active intelligence gathering. Critical, as time is money to you. But! to the client, information - or exposure thereof also means risk that could become your liability.
Consultants in this field are in the knowledge business, and one of the most difficult things to do is get the client to place a value on knowledge or intelligence. The authors, through wit and excellent real-world examples, spell out some of the keys to getting paid!! (pp 67). Naturally, this would go over the head of the casual reader who has never practiced and is looking for a "cook book" approach to due diligence of new business opportunities (i.e. see above commentary from Bogota).
This book is a "how to" book in that the authors have taken the time to clarify and rank several research tools and locations that one might not normally be aware of. This comparison alone is worth the money, as anyone who has used the web for performing research would agree.
The real brilliance in this book is subtle. By connecting the examples, you learn how to ask questions and iden! tify with what is important in doing intelligence research.! Again, for anyone who has gone in circles with clients who "don't know what they don't know", or worse yet, don't know how to value knowledge - this is critical to delivering fast, and minimizing your exposure.
Frankly, the Bogota guy didn't get it and has probably never performed true business intelligence. I agree that the coverage of the Internet web search engines, which used the example of finding information on pagers, is old news. The chapter's purpose was to show how more advanced tools outside of the Internet, such as Nexis, are preferred substitutes. That point was clearly made. However, this example was only used among 10 pages of chapter 5 (which was taken up with images of why the web doesn't work). The other 257 pp of this book are the meat.
My hats off to the authors for delivering a humorous text based on real-world wisdom that cuts through a very gray area that is as difficult to perform, as it is to explain.
Outstanding Resource and Reference BookThe book does an outstanding job of articulating, at every step, the importance of challenging one's assumptions and systematically gathering, synthesizing, and =analyzing= information that helps to dig through the colored lenses of wishful thinking or purely numerical analysis. The occasional injection of humor is quite welcome - in a world of stuffy self-important books on business, here's a piece of work that was written by people who love what they do, and are adept at making you better at what you do as well.

The best book I have read about the Women Airforce Service Pilots is *Those Wonderful Women in Their Flying Machines,* by Sally Van Wagenen Kell. Second best is Marianne Verges' *On Silver Wings*.
*Clipped Wings* falis to point out that two women members of Congress, Clare Booth Luce and Margaret Chase Smith, voted to kill the WASPs in 1944. *Clipped Wings* also fails to say, as Marianne Verges demonstrates, that WASP leader Jacky Cochran did not do the best possible job of prolonging the existence of the WASP organization.
In addition, on page 26 of *Clipped Wings*, the author claims that "...WASPs [were used] for top secret missions involved with the Manhattan project," but the book does not substantiate this claim.
Finally, the last chapter of *Clipped Wings* is laden with turgid academese about "hegemony" and "gendering," which in regard to sexism in the 1940's, only belabors the obvious.
