The Untamed Tongue; A Dissenting Dictionary
Thomas Stephen Szasz   5 out of 5 stars  --- a reader writes  - "Szasz is a psychiatrist who realized that the entire mental health profession is a load of crap - and so are politics, religion, and American sexual morality. In "The Untamed Tongue," Szasz dissects the language of almost every single field of human "knowledge," exposing hypocrisy and obfuscation with wit, clarity and precision. A must read for anyone interested in the role of language in thought control."   --- The publisher says: "The entries in this heretical dictionary reveal Szasz at his courageous and outrageous best, as he takes on the government's futile and murderous 'war on drugs', exposes the hypocrisies of psychotherapy and the atrocities of psychiatry, and defends the individual's most sacred right--the right to suicide."    -- A must read for thinking adults!
 

About Szasz:  Professor of psychiatry at Syracuse University who has  written many books (see below), most of which argue that all disease must be physical, that  "mental disease" is a myth, and that psychiatrists are agents of repression..

The Seat of the Soul 3.5 out of 5 starsGary Zukav   
Gary Zukav's American Book Award-winning The Dancing Wu Li Masters masterfully introduces the layman to quantum and particle physics, as well as Einstein's relativity theories. With a similar dose of amiable, easy-to-understand prose, Zukav guides readers into the spiritual realm in his bestselling The Seat of the Soul.   

Zukav questions the Western model of the soul, alleging that the human species is in the midst of a great transformation, evolving from a species that pursues power based upon the perceptions of the five senses--"external power"--to one that pursues power based upon perceptions of the soul--"authentic power." He believes that humans are immortal souls first, physical beings second, and that once we become conscious of this transformation--once we align our personalities with our soul--we will stimulate our spiritual growth and become better people in the process. This insightful, lucid synthesis of modern psychology and new-age principles has been described as the "physics of the soul."   -   A MUST GET BOOK!

You future depends on navigating the knowledge rapids ... prepare  with these fine resources ...
 
Intellectual Capital 5 out of 5 stars
Annie Brooking   -- This is an "ideas" book for managers keen to understand and interpret the nature of a business which principally sells its knowledge: knowledge assets based in its people, systems, brands, intellectual property and other intangibles. Organizations which provide competitive advantage through their use of intangible assets don't fit the classical model. This book shows that intangible assets are becoming as important as tangible assets in a knowledge based service-oriented economy.

Stewart, Tom Stewart -- Intellectual Capital ( by Thomas Stewart, an editor at Fortune) is a groundbreaking book, visionary in scope and immediately practical in application..  Focuses on human capital, structural capital and customer capital..
