SPIN Selling
Neil Rackham, Bob Kalomeer
Highbridge Audio, 2000
Best Sales Book I've Ever Read
I've read over 200 books on sales and marketing in my career and SPIN Selling is without question one of the best out there. No tactics, techniques or processes (those never work) like other sales books. Excellent for relationship selling. I am seeing the author Neil ...

Atlas Shrugged
Ayn Rand, Edward Herrmann
Highbridge Audio, 2000
Was she psychic? Or do people just keep repeating the same damn mistakes?
From a different, country, a different time---she lived a full life then died before I was born... deja vu...
I think this is the most moving and important book I've ever read... perhaps the real story of Armageddon.

Of Mice and Men (Classics on Cassette)
John Steinbeck
Highbridge Audio, 2003
Of Mice and Men, Gary Sinise is awesome!
I teach special ed and in the past have used the old cassette version our school's media center supplied. Compared to Gary Sinise on CD, it was awful! My students were riveted by Sinise's delivery. He more than did justice to Steinbeck's classic tale.

Excellent
This is my second copy of this cd as the first one got scratched. I've loved Claire Weekes for years and this cd is the perfect companion for her books. I listen to it in the car when my agoraphobia starts creeping back. Her voice is soothing, and the information is ...

Garrison Keillor
Highbridge Audio, 1998
Funny and then soothing
I love to give these collections of monologues to folks who are experiencing a long recovery from surgery or undergoing medical treatment. The monologues are funny to listen to, and after they have listened to them a time or two, just hearing Garrison Keillor's ...

The Art of Seduction
Robert Greene, Joost Elffers
Highbridge Audio, 2001
Psychological nuclear energy
As its more tangible counterpart, this information can destroy or sustain. From one standpoint I am just glad to have a pretty well organized blueprint of human actions: a lens through which I can categorize things I see. Personally, I intend to take it no further ...

Winter: Stories from the Collection News from Lake Wobegon
Garrison Keillor
Highbridge Audio, 1997
Wide Appeal
Garrison Keillor writes poignant and often funny stories about small-town, Midwestern life. His works have often been compared to those of Mark Twain, and I can give no greater praise than that, except to say that you need not be a Christian to enjoy his stories about ...

Life of Pi
Yann Martel
Highbridge Audio, 2003
Great Fable
This book rates in my top 5 right next to The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. What you need to keep in mind is that it is a STORY, a FABLE, not meant to be perceived as reality. Although, I found a lot of it believable. Maybe not the meerkat island, but even that bit of the ...
