Customer Review: This is a fantastic book on how to write grants. I am still reading it, but it tells you every detail that you need for the chore of writing a grant. Very well done.
Customer Review: The book was spot on regarding the current stock market meltdown. However, his advice to buy Treasury Inflation Protected Securities instead of stocks has not proven correct. So far his advice to buy TIPS has produced poor- in fact negativeinvestment results. And if there is in fact a deflationary... more info

There is a lot of inertia in textbook choice, but I was finally convinced to adopt Gruber's book when I served as the Lecturer for Stanford University's upper-level seminar in Public Economics. The textbook has high production... more info
Customer Review: John Steele Gordon has taken what could be an amazingly dull topic, limited in appeal, and translated it into a spectacular read for anyone with at least a basic education. This great little book is a welcome addition for folks interested in finance, the U.S. economy, and the national deficit.... more info
Customer Review: Some fairly good analysis on markets and trends and things. But abyssmally and tragically ignorant on some of the most important base issues surrounding money, banking, monetary policy, and inflation.
