Dirty Nasty Billionaire: Part One


Paige North - 2018
    I graduated from New England College, right here in Boston. And I’ve never had an orgasm.” When I admit this awful truth about myself to my co-workers, the worst possible thing happens. It gets back to my boss -- Nixon Blake, the six feet tall, ripped, chiseled founder of the internet’s biggest search engine. He’s a man with a jaw that could cut glass, the perfect amount of stubble, and ice blue eyes that could cause your blood to freeze in your veins. And then there’s his dark, wavy hair that looks like it would be heaven to run your fingers through. He’s also a tech billionaire. When I go to apologize, Nixon Blake isn’t having any of it. I think he’s for sure going to fire me, but then he does something completely unexpected. He rises from his chair and comes toward me. His feet fall heavy on the floor, and I’m surprised the room doesn’t shake with the force of his gait. Everything about him says he knows how big and powerful he is. He stops right in front of me, so close that I have to look up to keep eye contact. “You want to know something about me that would surprise you?” His voice is low, forcing me to be completely still. I can barely breathe, and so instead of a response, I just nod. There’s the tiniest spark of fire behind his icy eyes. “I’ve spent nearly every second since your little declaration,” he says, his tongue rolling over the word, “thinking about all the different ways I could make you come.” I am so screwed…

The Atomic Chef: And Other True Tales of Design, Technology, and Human Error


Steven Casey - 2006
    The 20 stand-alone chapters of this new work describe how technological failures result from the incompatibilities between the way things are designed and the way people actually perceive, think, and act. New technologies will succeed or fail based on our ability to minimize these incompatibilities between the characteristics of people and the characteristics of the things we create and use.This book is the quintessential 'must read' for all those who deal with technology in any fashion. From the frustration of an awkward ATM machine to the threat of accidental, nuclear Armageddon, Casey shows how the same crucial factors come into play told through the very eyes of those people who saw and experienced these things. No student of design, psychology, behavioral science, or technology should be without this book, and neither should any intelligent member of society who wants to know what goes on with the successes and failures of modern technology.Sit ringside to the action where compelling events unfold. The stories in this book will take you to airports and airline cabins, an amusement park, a fertility clinic, a pharmaceutical plant, an emergency dispatch center, the Olympic games, and a bank; to hospitals, spacecraft, ships, and cars. From the coasts of Peru and Monterey, in orbit aboard the International Space Station, the freeways of Southern California and the back roads of France, the battlefields of Afghanistan, and a nuclear fuel plant in Japan this is The Atomic Chef.

No Thanks Im Just Looking


Harry J. Friedman - 1989
    And Harry J.Friedman is very good at it. Someone once said, "Harry is the kind of guy who would sell someone a kickstand and then a $3,000 bicycle to go on top of it.

No theoretical mumbojumbo oroutdated 1940s methodologies.Unlike most sales trainers who are obsessed with handling objections and tricky closing techniques, Harryconcentrates more on "front-end selling." He'll show you how to get past customer resistance - that "I don't like you and I don't trust you" defensive shield thatcustomers are seemingly born with. And he'll show you how to probe more effectively so you can find outexactly what your customers want so that all you have to do is deliver it. The essence of front-end selling is having your customers say "I'11 take it" before you everhave to ask "Will you buy it?"The fun really begins, however, when you learn his unique version of the trial close - how to routinely add on additional merchandise, while you're closing thesale on the main item. This will put you in control of the sale and set you up for the final step which will reduce returns, build referrals and increase your repeat business.This book will save you countless hours of trial and error experience and allow you to focus on the things that really work. It will become your retail bible as you read it over and over. And each time you do,you'll turn up another batch of gems that just keep making you money.

Microwave Engineering

Introduction to Statistical Quality Control


Douglas C. Montgomery - 1985
    It provides comprehensive coverage of the subject from basic principles to state-of-art concepts and applications. The objective is to give the reader a sound understanding of the principles and the basis for applying them in a variety of both product and nonproduct situations. While statistical techniques are emphasized throughout, the book has a strong engineering and management orientation. Guidelines are given throughout the book for selecting the proper type of statistical technique to use in a wide variety of product and nonproduct situations. By presenting theory, and supporting the theory with clear and relevant examples, Montgomery helps the reader to understand the big picture of important concepts. Updated to reflect contemporary practice and provide more information on management aspects of quality improvement.

Lean Hospitals: Improving Quality, Patient Safety, and Employee Satisfaction


Mark Graban - 2008
    After highlighting the benefits of Lean methods for patients, employees, physicians, and the hospital itself, he explains how Lean manufacturing staples such as Value Stream Mapping and process observation can help hospital personnel identify and eliminate waste in their own processes -- effectively preventing delays for patients, reducing wasted motion for caregivers, and improving the quality of care.Additionally, Graban describes how Standardized Work and error-proofing can prevent common hospital errors and details root cause problem-solving and daily improvement processes that can engage all personnel in systemic improvement. A unique guide for healthcare professionals, Lean Hospitals clearly elaborates the steps they can take to begin the proactive process of Lean implementation.The book has an accompanying website with more information.Mark Graban was quoted in a July 2010 New York Times article about lean hospitals.*Given the increase in candidates from the health services sector, the Lean Certification and Oversight Appeals committee has approved Lean Hospitals by Mark Graban as recommended reading in pursuit of the Lean Bronze Certification exam.Mark Graban speaks about his book on the CRC Press YouTube channel.
