Perfect pocket-size tarot deck when you're on the go and someone happens to need a reading!
Highly Recommended for Beginner and Expert Alike!.......2006-05-12
This wonderful deck and book set from the winning team of Amy Zerner and Monte Farber can NOT be beat when it comes to being able to deliver tarot readings straight out of the box! The deck is gorgeous, a smaller (and comfortable to hold) version of Amy's gorgeous Enchanted Tarot, and the book is truly a gift in its own right! Monte's carefully worded, thoughtful interpretations ALWAYS pierce straight through to the heart of the matter and within a matter of minutes the reader is given an understanding of how the cards work that FEW other books have ever provided. Their vast knowledge of tarot, astrology, and personal enrichment shines through in every aspect of this work. You will never find a more positive, living example of how these things can be used to help shape and guide you in making changes and decisions in your life. The Zerner-Farber Tarot, the Enchanted Tarot, and anything else by this husband-and-wife team are always among my highest recommendations!

Customer Reviews:
Supportive, Gentle, and Wise.......2005-07-14
"We have written The Healing Deck for those who want to change, including the two of us, by creating the habits that support us, and recognizing and eliminating those that work against our best interests. But changing old habits is not that easy. These cards help remind us of the many tools available for rallying helpful habits to transform unhealthy ones." -Amy Zerner and Monte Farber
Known as the "Enchanted Couple", Amy Zerner and Monte Farber have been collaborating on divinatory and healing products for over 25 years. In fact, there are over a million copies of their work in print around the world.
Amy is an award-winning collage artist, combining hand-painted and vintage fabrics, papers, found materials, magical amulets and more. Monte adds his incisive, yet gentle, words to Amy's gorgeous tapestries and together, they produce an intuitive synergy of healing and insight in their work.
The Healing Deck is no exception. Each of the 36 cards depicts a colorful collage, a theme, and an affirmation on the front-while the text on the back elaborate on the theme and affirmation.
Some examples:
~Grow - I enjoy every day as an opportunity to grow.~
"Just as a grain of sand wraps itself in successive layers of material born of the oyster until it becomes the precious pearl, we attain emotional intelligence when irritations are seen as opportunities for growth."
~Boundaries - I make boundaries and respect them.~
"No one has the right to trample on your words, feelings, or personal space, no matter how close to you or well intentioned they are. Be respectful of the rights of others. You have the right to be alone."
~Shadow - I face my shadow-self bravely. ~
"Our ever-present shadow side can cause anxiety and self-doubt, weaken our resolve, and poison relationships. The problem is not that we are bad, but that we think we are. Allow your light side to triumph."
~Process - I invent creative solutions to every problem. ~
"Think of yourself as an inventor or artist. Both confront the unknown with faith in their creative abilities to guide them to truth and beauty. Make your life a work of art and your art a work of life."
~Self Esteem - I respect myself for being me.~
"Most people are too hard on themselves, limiting their ability to support their own dreams and schemes. You have done and been through a lot. Respect yourself for who you are right now. Don't wait."
Other themes in The Healing Deck include:
* Embrace
* Self-Esteem
* Nutrition
* Light-hearted
* Release
* Generosity
* Outdoors
* Contemplation
* Intuit
* Timing
Supportive and nurturing, The Healing Deck provides sage affirmations and advice for mental, physical, and spiritual wellness. I only wish that the images of Amy's gorgeous collages were bigger on the card fronts! Also, the cards fit into the case very snugly. It's difficult to get the deck out of the box, at times. This could prove to be a problem with those with arthritis or other condition affecting the hands and joints. However, if you take out the multi-folded introduction the cards fit in nicely, making the deck easy to extract.
Whether you use these cards as a healing or oracle or for meditation and instruction, The Healing Deck will help you cultivate healthful habits and person empowerment as you traverse the journey towards wholeness.

Great Pick Me Up!.......2005-03-30
This deck is exactly what the name says...a Healing Deck. Whenever I feel myself starting to be a bit grumpy or sad I grab this deck and pull out a card! The deck is literally propped up on my computer! Without fail the sweet affirmations and gentle nudges to get on with it pull me up and kick start my day again. Great gift item!
Customer Reviews:
a great overview.......2007-09-21
This book gives a wide range of information in different area in information system.
the good thing is that it include example from life where the person can understand the topic.
may some time include extra information that the begginner doesn't need, but overall the book is great.
I recommend it for people who do'n't have any backgroud in IT
Gotta agree with the first reviewer.......2007-03-21
This book leaves me hanging. The book repeatedly talks about leaders needing to be transformational and devise a IS strategy for their organizations -- okay that's great; how about providing some insight. It's one thing to say MIS is a strategic discipline (which this books does) and it's another thing to go out and do it (which this book doesn't describe and hasn't a clue).
The books if full of manager's jargon but and is light on the details. After reading, you'll be able to sound like a manager and probably be able to do little else.
This books blows.......2006-12-22
This book really sucks. Don't get it unless you have to.
Good Introductory.......2006-04-04
This isn't a bad text for an introduction to management in IT. It's not technical and certainly places emphasis on managing IT infrastructures. If you're moving up from being a follower to directing and managing employees and departments, then this book may help to get you a glimpse into it.
Excellent General Overview of the IT Industry as of 1/06........2006-01-18
I have never left a review on Amazon before (I've been a customer since 1997) and had no intention of doing so, when I initially searched this book description for some unrelated information.
However, after reading the previous two reviews related to this book I now feel compelled to give my review. Neither of the previous reviews had anything even remotely substantive regarding the actual material in the book. The only pertinent information the previous two reviewers touched upon concerned a typo. I challenge anyone to show me a 700+ page textbook that doesn't contain at least one typo.
The rest of the review pertains to the reviewer trying to grind an axe with regard to US programmers (which I am not). Maybe if he actually read the book, he would've left a different review. The other review is concerning a vendor/shipping issue.
I give this book 5 stars because I feel it is a good general overview source concerning the Information Technology industry at the time of this posting (1/06).
This book is well written and laid out in a very systematical and logical format, which allows the reader to reference the book "ala carte" style. If I want a refresher on networking or databases relating to the corporate world from a managerial perspective, this is a great source.
If you are looking to learn the latest version of Oracle or become certified in Linux, then I suggest looking elsewhere.
Customer Reviews:
Not worth your time........2006-09-27
Basically I had to purchase this for a class. The book is full of acronyms and buzz words with no application. The end of chapter review is great if you just wanted to add new words to your vocabulary and be able to repeat their definitions with little understanding. This is a classic example of a text book gone wrong.
Good for its purpose.......2006-06-14
If you need a management information systems book, this is the book you should be looking for! Its not useful for much else, however, maybe kindling...
deluxe RIP OFF.......2004-12-20
I 'was forced' to buy this book for an MIS course. We all know how textbooks are scams anyway, but this one takes the cake. My college even had the balls to 'bundle' this with an MS Access book so we were stuck with a $170 bundle. All the info I needed to take the course was available on the website webct. If you can find a way to access that site, you don't even need this outrageously expensive book. I got an A in the course and never cracked the book. I just used the info on the website. You should try that route if you can, and forgo purchasing this book.
Just not worth the cost........2004-10-12
This book is compulsory for a class I am in. Do what I did, don't waste your money - borrow from a library..... or find other solutions. This is way too much money for information that can be covered in other sources. The publisher is clearly exploiting the fact that it is used as a textbook to raise the cost outrageously.
This book is a scam.......2004-09-09
My friend used Management Information Sustems: Managing the Digital Firm 8th edition. Now that I received this one I can see that 95% of of the content in the new book is identical to the one my friend has. Oh, right, the authors also added to the title the words "essentials of" Management...
I can believe the publisher let the authors publish this kind of book. A previous review says that the book is almost identical to the previous edition of the same book. Now I am saying that the book is almost identical to a different book writen by the same authors...this is outrageous.
Ah, yes. The cases at the end of the chapters are different

It's a good online buying experience.......2004-09-16
After I ordered the book, I got response form the seller. And I got the book in few days. I think it's a good online buying experience. Thank You!
Writers must know the technology.......2004-07-12
While studying for MBA, my course teacher suggested this book as text. After reading this book, I could not undertsnad why the book is still in market? It has so many technical mistakes. I am mentioning one here.
The authors described "Star Topology" as: consists of a central computer connected to a number of smaller computers or terminals. Anybody having basic knowledge on computer networking will disagree with this definition. Actually the computers are connected to a hub or switch, not to a computer, and the computers need not to be 'smaller'.
The definition of other network topologies are also flawed. At the end of section 'The Ring Network' the authors commented that: Both ring and bus topologies are used in local area networks (LANs)... Probably they want to say that Star topology is not used in LAN, but the fact is that most of LANs in today's world use Star topology.
Definition of RAID (redundant array of inexpensive disks) is also confusing. The authors said that "more than hundred small disks" make RAID. Can't we make RAID with 3 or 5 disks?
The book is not intuitive.......2004-05-25
I am a computer programmer and had to use this book as a requirement for CIS class for my MBA degree. In my class I did not meet a single person who liked the book or found it satisfactory. I don't claim that I know everything about MIS. But the terms I knew are not explained well in the book. And it is very hard to understand terms I did not know. To illustrate my point, here is book's definition of the term `hypertext markup language (html)' - "Page description language for creating Web pages and other hypermedia documents." In my opinion you don't explain word `hypertext' with `hypermedia'. "Page description language for creating Web pages" doesn't sound intuitive either. Most of the definitions sound like that. The only positive thing was that Book Store gave me 50% of the book price back when I returned it.
Case Study, How Can I get the answer?.......2004-04-18
Hi, everybody!!!
This book is the one, don't doubt it. Well, anybody know where i can get information about the cases studies, i would like compare my answers with a credible source.
Well, thanks a lot.
Managers, Sales Rep.'s, MBA-students.... this is a must have.......2003-01-24
The emphasis of this book is how organizational change is required to implement an information system. At this point, we have all been involved in new implementations or updates to existing implementation. This book addresses logical approaches to managing the organization during these changes.
This book is **not** for techical administrators; however, it is an ideal resource for the non-technical manager who oversees a technical team, a technical business, or who wants to see the business grow to the Internet or use EDI type processes.
Because it uses current cases to introduce concepts about networking, it would be ideal for a graduate business program.
Because it is well written and clearly defines the key elements of networking, it would be a great desk reference for any business oriented manager or sales rep.
