Dirty Hands delivers an intense portrait of David Choe, a young near-schizophrenic street artist that devises numerous criminal schemes that afford him to hitchhike across the globe. David skirts the legal constraints of society to "freely" create his art in the public space. His nonchalant law-breaking style lands him in jail several times leading to his eventual demise in solitary confinement in a Tokyo prison cell. He resurfaces with a radically religious agenda and returns home with hope to overcome his criminal temptations and repair his severed relationships. We see David's unwillingness to grow up, his struggle to make it as an artist and his fight to hold on to his sanity for his life and burgeoning art career.

Besides all the criticism, I find this book very useful and a must for every project manager. However, if you are a beginner to the discipline of proejct management, first go through a basic book on project management such as 90 Days to Success as a Project Manager;the only book (for now) that is compatible with this (4th) edition of the PMBOK Guide. I am asking my students to read this book (40 days…) before reading the PMBOK Guide and after reading the PMBOK Guide. It is a well known fact that Standards in any field tend to be dry. Otherwise with the help of other books such as the one mentioned above, it can be a great entry into the discipline of project management.

As last years best-selling realtor in America, Ralph R. Roberts didn't just outperform his peers, he blew them away. While the average realtor sells seven homes per year, Roberts sold more than 500! Roberts' high-energy, infectious enthusiasm for selling is legendary and has earned him well-deserved national recognition; he has been profiled in Time, by the Associated Press, and in numerous newspapers coast to coast. He also grants nearly 100 radio interviews per year, commands $10,000 a day for speaking engagements, and is paid by everyone from car salesmen to stockbrokers to let them "shadow" him for a day just to see how he does it. Now in Walk Like a Giant, Sell Like a Madman, Roberts brings all his unique, off-the-wall selling techniques and his very serious work ethic to the printed page for the first time.

Grundlagen, Testarten und Strategien
Softwaretests gehören zum täglich Brot vieler Software-Entwickler. In diesem Video-Training geht es vorrangig um die Möglichkeiten, die die Microsoft-IDE Visual Studio hierzu bietet, doch auch theoretische Grundlagen zu Softwaretests allgemein kommen nicht zu kurz.
Dieses Video-Training zeigt sowohl die Sichtweisen auf Software-Testing aus dem Alltag eines Entwicklers, als auch aus dem eines Testers. Sie lernen die verschiedenen Testarten und nicht nur die einzelnen Bestandteile von Tests kennen, die Ihnen die Erstellung von Unit Tests erlauben, sondern auch jene, mit denen es möglich ist, ein Softwaresystem von der Benutzeroberfläche über die Verarbeitungslogik bis hin zur Datenbank auf die Probe zu stellen.

G. Richard Shell and Mario Moussa know what it takes to drive new ideas through complex organizations.
