Great book
Great book for introductory risk management in the oil & gas field.
If you are looking for an advanced oil&gas text search for another; case you are looking for risk analysis and its applicability, this is the book...

Of Uncertain value?
This is essentially a a very expensive pamphlet with a copy ofthe @Risk software on trial. As one who bought the "book" because of its subject matter and its author I feel roundly cheated. The pamphlet itself has some introduction to the subject but essentially this is nothing more than an attempt to distribute some trial software at cost.

I suspect the audience for this pamphlet already know of @risk and its competitors.Equally they will probabaly have this or a competitor software already.

I do appreciate the quality of @Risk - but this seems a "cheap" way of earning some extra revenue without really extending the user base. ... Read more

Product Description
The fundamental goal in Tussy and Gustafson's PREALGEBRA, Third Edition is to teach students to read, write, and think about mathematics through building a conceptual foundation in the language of mathematics. The book blends instructional approaches that include vocabulary, practice, and well-defined pedagogy, along with an emphasis on reasoning, modeling, communication, and technology skills to develop students' fluency in the "language of algebra". Tussy and Gustafson understand the challenges of teaching developmental students, and this book reflects a holistic approach to teaching mathematics that includes developing study skills, problem solving, and critical thinking alongside mathematical concepts. New features in this edition include a pretest for students to gauge their understanding of prerequisite concepts, problems that make correlations between student life and the mathematical concepts, and study skills information designed to give students the best chance to succeed in the course. Additionally, the text's widely acclaimed Study Sets at the end of every section are tailored to improve students' ability to read, write and communicate mathematical ideas. ... Read more

Good Deal - Good Condition
I have ordered several books online and so far have had good luck. The book came in good condition and I saved about &120.00 by getting it used. Shipping time arrived to the last day so that was the only thing I stressed on.

It's not "completely" what was advertised
I received my book,but only the book.There was no CD & MathNow, Enhance iLrn, Math Tutorial, Student resource Center Printed Access Card as shown on the advertisement. I contacted the seller several times, and did not get a straight answer the first few times.Finally I received this e-mail on 1/4/09."The description comments state that there is a CD included, or does not state there is "NO CD", that is one of the items we research when there are problems of this nature.We do our best to provide accurate and honest descriptions, as you noted by our feedback rating.However, from time to time, even though our processing and shipping is triple checked, unfortunately there can be errors.We do not have any more of that particular textbook in our stock at this time.You may return the book for a complete refund if you are not happy with your purchase.We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, and will credit your account accordingly when the return is received and processed."Then they went on to say there would be a $5.00 restocking fee.

Fortunately, in checking with my instructor, I can get by with borrowing the CD. With the length of time it took to get a response and the lack of attention to my concerns and order, I don't believe I would order any further items from readmore25. ... Read more

The best Excel Tutorial I know
Amazingly clear and concise tutorial. Consists of 9 short (~ 20 min) sessions. Easy to stop/continue, navigate. Shows everything in action on your screen. Has Excel data files from the sessions. Plus short excercises.

It is by far the fastest way to learn Excel. As if you ask an Excel Guru to spend several hours with you, and show you the secrets of exactly how he manages to be so efficient with Excel. All the magic when with just couple key strokes you get results. Convenient shortcuts.

I needed to become good with Excel - so I bought 5 books. This one gave me more results in shorter time than any other book. This is the book I would recommend to my mother or my friend to buy. ... Read more
