Readers' Comments

" ... fantastic book. ... Not only do I find the book well thought out, meticulously researched and written in easily understood language, it is certainly also very entertaining. You call it an 'Executive Briefing Book', but I find it has more 'mass appeal' than just for executives - unless everyone who reads it feels like one (and there should be many). You can quote me."

----- Ying Wai Leung, Technical Support Manager, Real Property Branch, Department of Fishery, Canada
