all of these classic comic books are exactly what you think there. They're good condensed versions of the original books.

A feast of nostalgia.

Excellent for grade school study of U.S. literature history

Mark Twain is predictably enlightening.

Like the way it was described.

Wasn't what I thought it was. Didn't realize it was a cartoon/comic book.

I am so happy I found this book before my trip to Buenos Aires. It is full of enormously helpful advice that no tango traveler should be without, but only an insider would know.Sally Blake made a trip to Bs. As. after only having danced for 5 months in her native England and ended up staying to learn and dance tango in the city of it's birth. She has navigated it's many milongas and made all the mistakes for you. Her advice and rules are designed to maximize your chances of getting dances and finding tango bliss (hence the name Happy Tango).In the first section she gives you 11 rules to follow, ones that she has followed (and broken) with quick explanations of why you should follow them. The 2nd section is an A to Z of dancing tango in Bs. As., all things tango you might encounter or need to know, with very helpful definitions and advice. In this section under the definition of "codigos" she outlines the code of conduct you should follow at the milongas to avoid looking like a newcomer or committing an embarrassing gaffe. In the 3rd Section she gives you advice on where you might be happiest dancing and descriptions of 20 milongas to try neatly sorted into three categories (tourist circuit, traditional and informal) with notes on how to get there and what you NEED TO KNOW to enjoy yourself at each milonga or practica.There's even a final section with practical advice on where to stay, what to eat, money matters, learning Castellano (Argentine Spanish), getting around, safety, staying connected and even what to see on your time off from tango (if you take any). There are also a few appendices which include tango schools, shoe stores and people she has met in her time there who might be helpful to know about.I feel like I now have a much more realistic set of expectations and am armed with great advice. I also feel like I'm traveling with a friend who can help me avoid some pitfalls. This is a book that will go in my carry-on and be re-read on the plane ride.--------Having now been in Bs As for two weeks I want to also add that not a day has gone by where I have not consulted this book for advice. BUY THIS BOOK!The one caveat: as do all things hip and cultural there are some changes in milonga location from year to year, so if you buy this edition make sure you check websites (they are helpfully provided) for locations and hours so you don't dress for an informal practica and end up crashing a very traditional milonga. Yes, I did that. :)

A friend of mine once said, "When I read news stories about things I know about, I'm often astonished about how wrong the journalist is about even the most fundamental concepts - which makes me wonder why I should believe anything I read from that publication about things I *don't* know about".On the other hand, we have Sally Blake's wonderful little book. In a relaxed, witty and non-judgmental style, she shares her hard-won lessons about her quest to find her own brand of tango happiness in the the intense Buenos Aires tango social scene. She pragmatically separates the available social tango opportunities into three broad (and somewhat overlapping) categories: "tourist-circuit", "traditional", and "informal", with seven recommended "try-here-first" venues in each category, and thorough information about each recommended venue. For a "tango immigrant" Britisher, her descriptions are refreshingly lacking in tango-fundamentalist dogma, and are nuanced enough to allow you to gauge your best bet for the evening along the lines of the practical, important distinctions: age of attendees, prevalent style of dancing, pace of crowding through the evening, etc.Advice on the logistics of visiting Buenos Aires, the behavior codes in the milongas, any many other aspects of city life critically important to the tango visitor, appears very up-to-date. I know some of the vendors she recommends personally, and can vouch for many of her value judgments. Sally and I would probably see each other sometimes, and not every night, because our tastes and social circles are not exactly a perfect overlap - but her attitudes about aspects of the scene that are not always her preference are well-written and useful.After just returning from my eighteenth trip to Buenos Aires, I can say that Sally's book passes the above "credibility test" with flying colors - her accuracy in describing parts of the scene I know about gives me great confidence in relying on her information about parts that are unfamiliar to me.

I am writing the first part of this review Before-Buenos-Aires ("BBA"):I am taking a trip to Buenos Aires ("BA") in March of 2011. I purchased several Travel Guides so that I could become familiar with the territory and hit the ground running, as I will only be there for a week (attending a very intense Argentine Tango Seminar) and I figured the more I know before I get there, the better!Sally has written an extremely comprehensive (yet personable) Guidebook to dancing Argentine Tango in BA, covering everything from: Accommodations, Travel, Food, Sightseeing and Safety (among others) ... and when it comes to the Argentine Tango material, it is a GOLDMINE, with detailed information on: the numerous Milongas and Practicas taking place everyday (and night) of the week, Tango Etiquette (very important to Argentineans), Tango Schools, Tango Psychology, Tango Shoe Stores (yah! ... it's not easy finding great shoes at a great price, for men in my size), the list just goes on and on.The level of specificity and detail in the book cannot be stated enough, I feel like I have been given a complete dossier on Buenos Aires and the Argentine Tango scene there (with everything neatly categorized and easy to find).I feel very well "prepped" for my trip ... because I know that through her book, Sally will be "with me" every step of the way. I am looking forward to writing the second part of my review after I get back.Best Wishes

Review

“‘Tug of War is one of the most often referenced books by serious horsemen looking to improve equestiran sport…’ This year Dr. Heuschmann has released his follow-up book, Collection of Contortion?… a critical examination of two concepts—flexation and bend—that are necessary to understand in absolute terms when the goal is to achieve collection on horseback.” Warmbloods Today MagazineUsing photographs and superbly rendered anatomical illustrations, Heuschmann explains the differences between correct and incorrect flexion and bend vis-Ã -vis shoulder-in, travers, half-pass, and other movements. (Jennifer O. Bryant USDF Connection)In addition to his published works, Dr. Heuschmann hosts educational lectures teaching the anatomy and mechanics of the horse which is useful for riders of all disciplines.Eventing Nation

This is mostly about why the German "style" is the classical and correct style of dressage. He does explain how to bend and flex a horse to achieve collection and explains why forcefull methods do damage. On page 11 he talks about how dressage is for classical breeds from our upper European region not for work horses like the Iberian horse. That is what I disagree with as dressage is a French word that means training and training is for all breeds of horses. I would rate this book much higher if he had left out such ideas about his regions' breeds and style as being superior in so making dressage seem like something that can only be for certain horse breeds.

Another fantastic book from this author! Great for every rider and equine therapist to better understand biomechanics and how we can help our horses vs. hindering and hurting them with our training methods. I hope many people read this book so more horses can be helped. Thank you.

The author spends far to much of this book describing riders who can't ride and trainers who can't train! And even breeds of horses for whom dressage is too "lofty a goal". Early in the book he says he will relate the anatomy and physiology of the horse to classical training methods, but fails to present a clear and concise exposition. A far better book for linking the horse's anatomy and physiology to training in collection is "Lessons in Lightness" by Mark Russell. I think I'll just read that one again, and drop this one in the trash can!

This was a gift. My friend likes it.

Thank you

An excellent, thought provoking read

The book is well written, easy to follow and makes the difficult things easy! There is so many pieces falling into its place and my overall understanding of dressage training is deepening.

anyone trying to ride dressage correctly and humanely should read and follow this book; what you see at World Cup and FEI competitions is abominable

Before reading this book, I would like to inform the readers that, this book is not about in-depth technology of analytics. It does not contain any analytical model or detailed methods of analytics. It is a business book which focuses on analytical strategy and other related topics on analytics in businesses. If you’re expecting analytical techniques or predictive models for analytics you are not going to find them in this book.1. The original edition of this book was probably the first book on business analytics which came out after article on “Competing on Analytics” written by Tom Davenport in early 2006.2. This book will help readers to understand concepts, evolutions, management issues as well as applications of analytics. It will also explain how companies can use analytics to optimize key business processes as well as how they can make profit from their product and services by using analytical approaches. Further exploration could be achieved by using concepts, studies, suggestions, examples and references provided throughout this book.3. The authors have divided the book into two parts; Part one: “The nature of analytical competition” Part two: “Building analytical capability”.4. Most information from the original edition is included in this edition with some updates. Some new information is also included.5. The “definition of analytics” is clearly defined in this book. It is identical to the definition defined in original edition.6.The authors have added new topics such as data scientist, big data, Hadoop and other open-source software technology, data products, machine learning, IoT etc. to this edition.7. In addition to the first three eras of analytics that had been defined in authors’ previous books and articles, new type of analytics known as Analytics 4.0 (Autonomous analytics) is added to this edition.8. “Distinctive capability” is a term frequently used throughout this book. The authors have suggested that ‘distinctive capability’ is an attribute for organizations that want to be competitive.9. The authors have defined “an organization that uses analytics extensively and systematically to out think and out execute the competition” as “Analytical competitor”. They’ve provided four common key characteristics of successful analytical companies which they’ve found in their studies. I strongly agree with these key characteristics particularly the senior management commitment. My experience suggested that without senior executive’s sponsorship it is unlikely for an organization to achieve its goal in analytics.10. In addition to those characteristics, the authors have also suggested that to become a master in analytics, a company needs to build analytics capabilities which consist of five essential attributes. They’ve proposed a model called DELTA model (Data, Enterprise, Leadership, Targets, and Analyst) to help in building these analytics capabilities.11. The authors have highlighted some studies by demonstrating that adoption of an analytical approach is closely correlated with high performance and is a source of competitive advantage of companies.12. Analytics for internal processes and external processes are provided with some typical techniques including some detailed information in each domain. These types of analytics can be applied to support business processes.13.The authors have proposed five stages roadmap for developing analytical capabilities with some detailed information in each step. DELTA model is applied to this roadmap with two more additional capabilities namely technology and analytical techniques. Some examples from successful companies are also included in stage two, stage three and stage four of the road map. The authors noted that these companies have one thing in common: “an absolute passion for analytics”.14. Managing Analytical People is my favorite chapter. The authors have classified analytical people in organizations into three groups; senior management teams particularly the CEO, professional analyst and analytical amateurs. The authors have provided the characteristics of analytical leaders and the roles of C-suite executives including the roles of CDAO (Chief Data and Analytics Officer). Some information on analytical professional and data scientists as well as analytical amateurs is also given in this chapter. Autonomous decision making and override issues are provided with some examples from those who applied this type of decision and actions in different manner. The differences between analysts and data scientists are provided with some detailed information. Based on their studies, the authors have provided five critical success factors including “trust” between analysts and decision makers. I believe that these factors are very important in terms of analytics in operations which management teams might have overlooked.15. The analytics and big data architecture provided in chapter 8 explained how technology, data and governance processes for analytics are incorporated into the company’s existing environments. The definition of analytics and big data architecture is clearly defined. The architecture is broken down into six elements ranging from data management to deployment processes. General information on analytical technology which covers some types of software tools is also given in this chapter. In summary, the authors have emphasized that senior management commitment and flexibility of architecture are important factors in support of analytical tasks.16. The authors have provided information on future of analytics in the final chapter. They have divided analytics world in the future into three categories: Technology-driven approach, Human- driven approach and Strategy-driven approach. In the end, the authors have provided a summary of the key attributes of analytical competitors and a prediction of the future. They have suggested that analytical competitors will continue to examine their strategies and their business capabilities, refine their analytical capabilities, create data-driven culture and think broadly about whether their analytical models and data are still relevant to their businesses. Finally and perhaps most importantly the authors have emphasized that analytical competitor will continue to find ways to outperform their competitors.This book is packed with examples, studies, interviews and surveys from many successful as well as unsuccessful companies. However, I really don’t know whether the information in many parts of this book is still valid since some surveys, studies, and interviews had been conducted a couple of years prior to publication of original version. I felt that there have been a lot of changes as big data and new analytical tools came into existence.This book is an essential book that every C-level executives, Heads of Strategic department, senior managers, middle managers, managers and those who want to apply analytical approaches in a company should have read it. Data scientists themselves may not enjoy reading these non-technical texts, however, they can gain some good information on managing analytical people provided in chapter seven. Adoption of analytics in a business requires changes in culture, process, people’s behavior and skills, if you are looking for a good guideline to help you to move along the path toward analytical competition, this book could be an invaluable source for you.This book is easy to read. Non-English speaking background readers can enjoy reading this great book.

If you like or not, analytics is the new reality in for the highest functioning businesses. As more and more data is available it is no longer optional. However getting your arms around what to do, where to start and what does this ultimately look like can seem almost insurmountable.In this book Jeannie Harris and Thomas Davenport do such and incredible job of outlining the natural progression of analytics in multiple different industries! I learned how to recognize an organization that is ready to embrace their data and find a better way vs an organization that is not ready. I learned where to start and more important, what kind of questions to ask to get the most out of analytics. As someone who makes a living helping ask these questions, this book was rocket fuel! I can't thank the authors enough for their work. I have personally purchased the Kindle edition and the audio version. Both well worth it.

Fantastic and informative book for anyone interested in understanding data science and how companies are applying it in the industry. The book offers a lot of useful lessons and concepts to keep in mind when attempting to build any analytically competitive culture in an organization. Very engaging and easy to read.

Well written, great examples of companies using analytics as a competitive edge, as well as practical advice to take a company to the next level of data and analytics

Good book. Part of the MBA class I am taking. Very current and helpful.

I got the audio version to set the background to an MBA crash course on analytics. I like the short history from data bases to the birth of the data scientists.

This book provides and excellent roadmap of skills needed to advance your business’s analytical journey. It also provides wonderful examples.

Thoroughly enjoyed the book, it was an easy read and using it as part of the company’s strategic planning process.
