LIFESAVER.......2007-10-24
THANK YOU FOR GETTING THIS TO MY FRIEND IN A SPEEDY MANNER. I HOPE SHE ENJOYS IT AS MUCH AS I DO.
Excellent!!!!.......2007-10-23
I purchased the book and the CD's together. I couldn't put the book down!Since I read it so fast, I feel the CD's are a reinforcement,plugging in the areas where the written word didn't impact me. I listen while driving, and find new things in the content all the time. What a delight to listen to. I'm finding things are coming to me,actually without that much effort on my part. I've NEVER been SO conscious in all my life! It's commanding that we live a full life in all areas, to evolve into our higher self. Definitly gives you the how and why and the ability to get into the flow and act on our instincts. I can't stop telling people about this!
This book has changed my life........2007-10-23
I've heard of this book from some friends few months ago, and I watched the first 20 minute of the Secret DVD on YouTube with them. I got so interested in this LoA, so I searched a lot of information on internet and watched many videos about it. But like many of readers here, I was very skeptical about this and it is just so commercial and I didn't believe in the LoA.
For the last few months while I didn't believe in the LoA, my life was suffering so much from depression and loneliness that come from being in a foreign country by myself. I desperately wanted to find way to change my life. Nothing ever worked. Then I came back to have interest in the Secret. I began to read this book from the bookshop nearby and then after I started to read this book, so much hope and belief came within me. I've never thought of buying this book, coz I thought that all this book was saying is that "Visualize what you want and you will have them." I was like how is it even possible? What kinda rubbish is that?
But as my last hope to desperately wanting to change my life, I purchased this book few days ago, and am determined to make this LoA work for me. And although I haven't manifested anything very amazing yet, a lot of changes are occuring within me. I realized how important it is to keep out my negative feelings and thoughts, and forcus on good things in my life and think about what I really want and feel good about it. As I try to really practice it, I have been monitoring most of my thoughts, and within these few days already my interpersonal relationships are improving and I don't feel that desperate loneliness and depression anymore.
I believe in the LoA, and I made my mindmovie and am watching twice everyday. For those who think this book is all rubbish, I recommend that maybe you should at least try this first, and then if it doesn't work for you, then complain. I don't think there is anything to really lose by applying what this book is teaching into real life. So what is the point of blaming this book and the author even before you really practice it?
Anyway, although the amazing magic this book is showing us doesn't manifest to us, it surely changed most of my negative thinking pattern and feelings, and even only for that, this money I invested for this book is so much worth it. I've read tons of self-help books and none of those books were anyway near to this book in changing my thinking patterns.

Truly Enjoyable Read.......2007-10-25
One night I sat down and starting reading the "Law of Attraction" by Michael J. Losier. It was fast reading and quite enjoyable. The exercises were not only fun I got a lot out of doing them.
I really liked the chapter called "Why Using Affirmations May Not Raise Your Vibration." In this chaper Losier let's us know that an affirmation is something that is spoken in the present tense and is used to declare a desire. He uses the example of saying "I have a happy, slender body". If this is not really the way you feel you are still sending out negative vibrations.
This brought to mind what Ariel & Shya Kane say in their book "How to Create a Magical Relationship". They helped me see that what one resists, will persist in their life and grow stronger. How this translates in the "weight example" is if a person resists not being slim, but wants to be, they will stay fat.
Losier says to state your affirmations (or what you want to have in your life) as a process. I tried this and it does feel good. In my case it was: "I am in the process of growing my business" and it has been growing! I highly recommend How To Create a Magical Relationshipboth of these books.
What Do You Attract?.......2007-10-24
This is one of the most powerful tools I have come across in the personal development realm. Michael Losier is concise, to the point and makes it easy to follow the principles laid out. If you want to get to another level in your life whether, business, financial, relationship or other, The Law of Attraction, The Secret and Understanding: Train of Thought are the books for you.
Interesting..........2007-10-23
This book gives 'how to's on to be positive' I think it is a pretty good book, but most of it is lessons most all people know. It helps with teaching a person to focus on positives, it has some hands on worksheets you down load from the internet, which is nice to see where you stand.
Create Our Own Reality?.......2007-10-23
The basic law of attraction states that my life will become whatever I focus my energy & attention on. the focal point being the concept that the world is made up of energy that vibrates at a certain level. The old cliche that you get what you put out is the dominant theme. This universal law includes-fate, karma, luck, meant to be, serendipity, & synchronicity. Feelings of confidence, enthusiasm, love are the positives & the negatives like anger, envy, jealousy are self explanitory. The author gives a three step formula to use: identify your desire, raise your vibration, allow it to come to you. The clarity through contrast worksheet was the most helpful. Will these metaphysical tactics work? I have to try them more regularly, & overcome my skepticism to give you a definitive answer. Thus far, I would say the results have been neutral.
Law of Attraction.......2007-10-20
This is a simple, but extremely useful book. It tells a significant concept and method in a very easy-to-pick-up way. It will bring some sort of life changing to many readers, I bet. I enjoy reading it and would like to recommend it to all my friends or colleagues.

John C. Maxwell offers lively stories about the foibles and successes of Lee Iacocca, Abraham Lincoln, Princess Diana, and Elizabeth Dole in The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. Readers can expect a well-crafted discussion that emphasizes the core attitudes and visions of leadership. Maxwell uses the same tell-it-like-it-is approach that he honed in the bestselling Developing the Leader Within You. For instance, when explaining "The Law of Influence," Maxwell states that "job titles don't have much value when it comes to leading. True leadership cannot be awarded, appointed or assigned. It comes only from influence and that can't be mandated." Even after Princess Diana was stripped of her title, Maxwell says she was still able to lead a global effort toward banning land mines because of her sophisticated ability to influence others.
If readers are looking for a step-by-step formula, Maxwell's list of "laws" will probably seem too chatty and anecdote driven. There are no specific tips on what readers can do during the next workday to help them become stronger leaders. On the other hand, Maxwell's background as a pastor gives him an inspirational voice and a spiritual context to leadership that many business and church leaders appreciate. --Gail Hudson
Book Description
What would happen if a top expert with more than thirty years of leadership experience were willing to distill everything he had learned about leadership into a handful of life-changing principles just for you? It would change your life.
John C. Maxwell has done exactly that in The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. He has combined insights learned from his thirty-plus years of leadership successes and mistakes with observations from the worlds of business, politics, sports, religion, and military conflict. The result is a revealing study of leadership delivered as only a communicator like Maxwell can.

Great book, great condition! I was lucky to find this book at this price. I will shop here again.
Powerful.......2007-10-17
This is a powerful book. I cannot say enough about John Maxwell's ability to put things into perspective. This has helped me to understand why some of my managers are struggling and what to look for in hiring new ones.
Ideas are good, but nothing revolutionary.......2007-10-10
The workbook seems to be a "Readers Digest" version of the original book. While the questions can be thought-provoking, the stories are a bit predictable and common.
The best books on Leadership.......2007-08-26
John Maxwell is the world's best writer and speaker on leadership. I've seen him speak several times and read most of his boos. This workbook is a great companion book to his award winning book of the same name. I've recommended The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership to almost every one of my mentor clients and if you are a leader, or if you have an interest in becoming a great leader, this is the place to start.
Also see the John Maxwell Leadership Study Bible as a great reference on leadership with Biblical examples.
Great reference material.......2007-08-01
I am in Grad school and have cited this work several times since it arrived and in great shape. THANKS!
Book Description
The PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible is the most comprehensive book available for the Logic Games section of the LSAT. The intent of this book is to provide you with an advanced system for attacking any game you encounter on the LSAT. This same system is covered in the live classes taught by PowerScore, and all of the methods and techniques discussed in the book have been tested in classroom situations over many years.
The book features and explains a detailed methodology for attacking the games section. All aspects of Logic Games are covered, from recognizing game types to diagramming rules to making inferences and answering questions. Entire chapters are devoted to the most advanced game techniques and to time management strategies.
Logic Games are divided into individual types, and a discussion follows that teaches you how to approach each type of Game, and drills are presented to help you apply and understand the techniques. Thereafter, real LSAT logic games are used to illustrate how the techniques apply to real tests. Using real LSAT questions is a must for high-level LSAT preparation, and twenty-one real LSAT logic games are contained in the book. Each logic game is accompanied by a detailed analysis of the game setup and related questions.
The author has over 12 years experience teaching the LSAT and has scored in the 99th percentile on a Law Services-administered test. An expert in LSAT preparation, he has overseen the preparation of thousands of students and founded two national LSAT preparation companies.
The Logic Games Bible can be supplemented by The Ultimate Set-Ups Guide, which features setups for every game in each released LSAT from 1995 to 2002. Also, both books provide access to a unique website for additional LSAT and Logic Games information, and has answers to frequently asked questions.
For more information about the renowned PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible, contact PowerScore at (800) 545-1750.

A MUST HAVE.......2007-10-05
I wish I would have purchased this book months ago! In contrast to other LSAT prep books, this one explains the Logic Games in a much more clear, concise, and easy to understand way. If you decide to use another LSAT prep book, I highly reccomend using this one to prepare your self for the Logic Games part, and skipping that part in your other LSAT prep, as this one is the best. I just took the LSAT on 9/29/07, and everything that was covered in the book, I utilized on the test!
Useful, despite being overpriced and a bit odd.......2007-09-30
The Logic Games Bible teaches techniques for diagramming games and, to a lesser extent, attacking the questions. The most useful things I picked up from the book were:
1) Never erase your work (do one master diagram at the bottom of each page and then, if necessary, do mini-diagrams the questions).
2) Diagramming numerical distributions.
3) "Hurdling the uncertainty, TM," which is an effective method of diagramming inclusion/exclusion rules when presented with rules like "A, B, and C can not all be selected at the same time."
4) Diagramming abstract sequences
It's worth noting that along the way, the book utilizes some strange conventions. For example, when diagraming a sequence where A comes before B (that is, it's in a lower numbered position) the book suggests that the following shorthand be used: A>B, that is A is greater than B. If you've taken a math class in the last decade, this is disconcerting--in practice I diagrammed all of the abstract sequences exactly opposite of the book. Also, when diagramming morning and afternoon games, the book suggested that the diagram look like this:
afternoon.|_ _ _ _ _
morning....|_ _ _ _ _
A strange reversal of morning and afternoon that is, again, off-putting to anyone who has used outlook, or even a regular calendar. These are minor quibbles, but to some extent, they make the book seem a little amateurish and undermine the reader's confidence in it.
All said, this book can be very useful if used correctly. Its well worth purchasing if you're aiming for the 170s, still have a month or two left to study, and have not taken many practice exams (I say this because there aren't that many old logic sections to go through, and it takes a decent number of practice sections to learn how to efficiently apply the techniques taught in the book). If, however, you're planning on skipping a game on the test, expect to score
<170, only have a couple of weeks before the exam, or have chugged through most of the practice exams, this will be an expensive book of little use.
Great Buying Experience.......2007-09-26
I have been looking at all the bookstores in the Atlanta area for this book. I needed it to study for my upcoming LSAT. The book was out of stock everywhere in Georgia. I simply went online to Amazon and the book arrived at my doorstep within 3 days-and it was cheaper than the bookstores! This book is an excellent tool if you are unsure about the logic games portion of the LSAT. I would recommend it to anyone, even if they feel pretty confident on logic games.
The BEST LSAT book available.......2007-09-09
I used this book as a supplement to the PowerScore classroom course, and I found the book more helpful than the actual course! When I began to work through the book my score was a 168, but I now score consistently in the 173-174 range. As I practice, I get even faster...the techniques really are superb. Just leave yourself enough time (2-3 weeks) to work through the book without rushing so that you can absorb each concept, and then leave at least 3 weeks to do your own practice, honing the techniques on actual LSATs. I've been working just the games section from one test each day, and then an entire test every 4th day.
Unless you think the games are easy, this is the most important LSAT prep book you can buy.
Worth Every Penny!!!.......2007-09-03
Before purchasing this book, I purchased both Kaplan and Princeton Review prep books and still SUCKED at the analytical reasoning/logic games section of the LSAT. I spent two weeks with this book and was able to complete every logic game accurately. I'm still working on the timing but at least I'm able to diagram the games and arrive at the correct answers, which is something I struggled with before. If you have difficulty w/ the logic games - this is the book for you!!!
Book Description
This book presents the powerful basics of the original Teachings of Abraham. Within these pages, you’ll learn how all things, wanted and unwanted, are brought to you by this most powerful law of the universe, the Law of Attraction. (that which is like unto itself is drawn). You’ve most likely heard the saying âLike attracts like,â âBirds of a feather flock together,â or âIt is done unto you as you believeâ (a belief is only a thought you keep thinking); and although the Law of Attraction has been alluded to by some of the greatest teachers in history, it has never before been explained in as clear and practical terms as in this latest book by New York Times best-selling authors,
Esther and
Jerry Hicks.
Learn here about the omnipresent Laws that govern this Universe and how to make them work to your advantage. The understanding that you’ll achieve by reading this book will take all the guesswork out of daily living. You’ll finally understand just about everything that’s happening in your own life as well as in the lives of those you’re interacting with. This book will help you to joyously be, do, or have anything that you desire!

The Real Secret.......2007-10-21
For those familiar with the teachings of Abraham, this is a great review of how the Law of Attraction works. As always, Abraham, Esther and Jerry present this fundamental, life-enhancing information in a way that is authoritative, yet friendly, personal and very clear. And, again as always, they fill in the bigger picture that was presented so superficially in The Secret video. This is not just the latest fad in positive thinking: this is getting at how the very Universe works and how we can consciously apply the Law of Attraction in deliberately creating our experience in this life.
Are you kidding me??.......2007-10-16
These people are claiming to be channeling and ancient ghost named Abraham. This is the most ridiculous book I have ever read. I suggest you stay with books written by contributors to the secrets to learn how to apply the law of attraction. Lisa Nichols is my favorite she explains things of a practical and applicable manner. She does not pretend to be possessed by a spirit and speak in strange language.
A Very Important Book!.......2007-10-11
"The Law of Attraction," a great Universal Law, is explained more clearly than ever before. You will learn not only what the Law of Attraction is, but how it works, how to work with it and how to create the life you desire. One other book I highly recommend is Understanding: Train of Thought.
Informative.......2007-10-06
Great service and quality of product. A great read so you can easily read and follow.

Book Description
Todd R. Clear, one of the country's leading experts in the study of corrections, George F. Cole, considered by many as the 'founding father' of modern criminal justice study, and new co-author Michael D. Reisig, combine talents for the new Seventh Edition of the market-leading AMERICAN CORRECTIONS. A great author team, Clear's expertise in corrections complements Cole's organizational view of the system and fresh perspectives offered by Reisig. Together, they present a well-rounded, balanced approach to corrections. AMERICAN CORRECTIONS, Seventh Edition takes a sociological and humanistic approach to corrections. The text treats institutional and community sanctions in a balanced fashion and offers a look at the system from the perspective of both the corrections worker and the offender. It also presents the concept of corrections as a "system" of interconnected organizations and carries this theme throughout the book. From a more practical standpoint, many find this text appealing because it provides comprehensive coverage without overwhelming students. At 22 chapters and 592 pages, it is very compatible with standard semester-long courses.
Customer Reviews:
Great corrections book.......2006-02-02
I've taught college-level corrections courses for quite a few years now and have kicked around a number of different corrections texts. This new edition is definitely an improvement over previous ones--it's much heavier on the recent empirical research, which helps me to keep my students "on track" with what the actual research indicates regarding a number of correctional topics.
I do have some students who may take issue with the authors' discussion on certain subjects (much like one of the reviewers here), yet much of their dissatisfaction is likely to arise out of their disappointment that the reality of corrections is different from their preconceived ideas of what corrections "should" be about (in general, such dissatisfaction is expressed by my younger, more close-minded, right-wing zealot students who have a long way to go before they're capable of thinking critically).
In short, it's a great corrections text. It might be a bit lengthy for a single course on a quarter system, but if you're teaching on a semester system it's great because you won't need to hoist a bunch of supplementary materials/books onto your students (this edition is more than enough to last you a full semester).
Review of American Corrections, 7th Edition.......2006-02-01
Clear, Cole, & Reisig present a thorough overview of classic and historical correctional philosophy that is strongly tied to their discussion of more contemporary issues. Each revision includes the most up to date, critically acclaimed research from top criminology journals. Additionally, they regularly cite the best government sources (such as the Bureau of Justice Statistics and the Federal Bureau of Prisons) to support various claims. In sum, this is a fair and balanced approach to all of the important issues facing corrections. I have taught Corrections for many years, and would not consider using a book other than American Corrections.
Worst Criminal Justice Textbook I've ever read.......2005-11-10
The name of this book should be 'The Overly-Liberal, Bleeding-Heart View of Corrections'. This was by far the worst criminal justice textbook that I have ever read. I expect textbooks for classes to give the facts and be somewhat unbiased. This book gave a VERY one-sided view which portrayed anyone that is convicted of a crime to be the actual victim; all the way from investigation to parole. This view would have been fine if it had been countered with the other side as well. I was very disappointed. I read it from from front to cover, and it was brutal. This should be a book on opinion, instead of a textbook.

Book Description
Bishop Jordan has written a stellar work that is guaranteed to free the mentally enslaved, acquit the wrongfully charged, and bring healing to the sick. The Laws of Thinking is not a work for the shallow-minded person. It is demanding and challenging. It is neither intended to be used as the basis for unmerited criticism nor as sermon material for the minister having difficulty receiving a fresh work from the Lord. It was written with a very clear aim: to provoke spiritual thought. Bill Gates' Microsoft, Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Productions, Stephen Spielberg's DreamWorks, and even his own Zoe Ministries all began with a thought.
Every invention, university, book, song, business, home, skyscraper, movie, stage play, and baby began when someone chose to think. Nothing happens without thought. Creation did not happen without God's thought. Bishop Jordan's first objective is getting you to think.

Destiny is a matter of choice.......2007-09-11
The Law of Thinking is definitely a must read. It will motivate you to start acting on ideas and dreams you thought were unreachable. Bishop E. Bernard Jordan teaches Destiny is not left up to chance but a matter of choice. He is the Master Prophet who brings life to visionary ideas.

En-POWER-ing! Beware: Likely not palatable by Fundamentalists.......2007-09-10
I found Bishop Jordan's work so inspiring, enpowering and en-LIGHT-ening (as in shedding LIGHT on one's spiritual nature and relation to God, taking one out of DARKNESS)that I now own both the book and the CD and am working my way through his workbook. (Available from his site.) If the belief system you have chosen will allow you to consider other view-points without FEAR, that I recommend it highly, (especially for "Rhinos" - ie, entrepreneurs) so as to help manifest God's GOOD in your life. Remember, the validity of your belief system manifests in its FRUITS.) Alas, I could see "Fundamentalists" or "Literalists" taking offense at some thoughts expressed in it. One of my favorite parts in the book is when Jordan cites a instance when precisely this happened and a congregation member gasped "Bishop Jordan thinks he's God!" and he replied "NO! God thinks he's ME!"
May your Blessings ensue...

Customer Reviews:
very thorough.......2007-09-25
Probably the best product available. I bought the book plus CD. The book is very detailed and covers most topics you would want to know about in case you pass on. I feel I have a good understanding of the process. Estate planning is somewhat complex and takes time. You must read the book before plugging in the software so you will understand the major decisions you must make.
This package will crank out straight forward, no nonsense wills and related paperwork that is valid and binding. You do not need a lawyer. However if you have anything complicated or involves many conditions, you better pay the lawyers fees.
It's OK but won't work on Mac.......2007-09-12
I have not used all the pieces of this and it has some limitations but it is a cheap way to get a will I guess. I am mostly annoyed that they don't make it for Mac which makes it a bigger hassle for me since I am a Mac user.
Very good if your needs are basic.......2007-08-24
My wife and I bought this product before we went on an out of the country vacation and left our toddler with relatives. We wanted to have the peace of mind that our intentions were documented and known. Our situation is not complex so we found the program and documentation to be very accommodating.
I would guess that someone who had a great deal of acquired wealth and assests, or a complex family system may want to invest in an attorney's assistance.
Easy to use product........2007-08-23
WillMaker was simple to use, and didn't take much time at all. It is a great way to get your affairs in order. It's not easy to think about death, but I think it is important, so those who survive you don't have as many difficult issues around one's death.
This program also has some other useful legal programs such as childcare contracts.
Lots of Reading but Well Worth It.......2007-08-08
I didn't want to go to a lawyer and spend lots of $ on the very little money I have. The software comes with a very detailed book and explains everything very well. I did actually write my will that day and living will as well.I just have to get it signed by witnesses and notarized. I didn't give it a perfect 5 b/c there is no such thing as perfect. That's just my own opinion. Well worth the money and the software goes through the will process step by step.
