          Product Description

          The Miller GAAS Guide describes the engagement standards, practices and procedures in use today--including Statements on Auditing Standards and their Interpretations, Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements and their Interpretations, and Statements on Standards on Accounting and Review Services and their Interpretations. The book's sensible organization follows the arrangement of the AICPA's Professional Standards. Within each section, an organizational structure is used that is both simple and insightful. Each section begins with "Authoritative Pronouncements", listing the auditing-related documents that are pertinent to the section. An Overview is provided, followed by a Promulgated Procedures Checklist that identifies the essential professional responsibilities that must be satisfied in each part of an engagement. Under Analysis and Application of Reporting Standards, readers will find a concise discussion of how each specific promulgated procedure should be supplied. Finally, many of the sections have Practitioner's Aids to help apply the promulgated standards to specific engagements. Within each section, readers are alerted to key guidance to help plan engagements. This guidance is classified as a Risk Assessment Point, an Engagement Strategy, a Planning Aid Reminder, or an Observation. To help sensitive CPAs to issues affecting auditor reponsibility for fraud, this edition contains "Fraud Pointers" that integrate fraud issues related to a particular professional standard's requirement. This should aid CPAs in considering fraud risks throughout the entire audit engagement. Also, to help CPAs stay abreat of potential changes affecting AICPA professional standards, this edition contains new overviews of outstanding exposure drafts. These overviews, labeled "Important Notice for 2006 Engagements," highlight key elements of possible changes to existing professional standards. All of the exhibit material in the book appears on the free companion CD-ROM that comes with Miller GAAS Guide. The sample letters, reports, and checklists found in the text can be printed and customized to meet all of your auditing needs. The Guide also includes a cross-reference to the original pronouncements and a detailed topical index. The Miller GAAS Guide meets accounting industry standards overseen by the peer review system and contains a document covering the peer review of this book.

                    5 out of 5 stars I Am Killer Resume -- Be Afraid!.......2001-03-13

                    WORD-UP!

                    Having recently purchased 16 books on the subject and a professional in the field, I suggest you'll be in deep trouble if one of your competitors reads this book before you.

                    It is, at once, the supreme effort on the market.

                    Best you read it FIRST and learn what makes a "rez-u-may" SELL. (You'll also learn to love "Peanut Butter Sandwiches".)

                    For those intensely serious about a great resume, I suggest two additional five-star books:

                    1. "Gallery of Best Resumes" by David Noble. Terrific examples of excellent layout and design.

                    2. "Resumes for Dummies" by Joyce Kennedy. All around good advice.

                    Follow the suggestions in these three books and you'll consistently write a winning resume.

                    Remember, "WORDS" can change your life.

                    Don't think so? Here are some that will: "Watch Out!", "Call 911!", "Earthquake!", "Guess What.", "I Want Volunteers.", "We're Downsizing.", and "I Do."

                    Still don't think so? Unless you're brain-dead, THESE WORDS will:

                    "Here's Your Pink Slip." "Where's My Parachute?" "I Need A Job." "What time can you come in for an interview?", and

                    "YOU'RE HIRED!"

                    When you hear the above, it's a right proper time to suddenly "Go Forth And Put Asunder".

                    Brandish & Vanquish with your secret weapon known as "My Killer Resume".

                    All competitors shall Be Afraid!

                    5 out of 5 stars An outstanding "how to" resume building guide........2000-06-05

                    In 40 Minute Power Resume, Beverly Hill shows how to create a personal resume that truly separates and showcases your talents, skills, and abilities from those of others. She guides you through the construction of an effective and distinctive resume through a simple step-by-step processes in easy-to-understand language, while enabling you to highlight your own diverse accomplishments and experience in an competent and professional manner. This "hands on" manual provides resume writing insights and practical examples of professional resume building that will prove invaluable for those newly entertaining the job market, anyone who is re-entering the job market after an absence for family or schooling, as well as those seeking to improve their career opportunities through transferring to a more challenging, lucrative, or career advancing position elsewhere.

                    5 out of 5 stars Better Than Rehabilitative Alimony.......2000-02-14

                    As a divorce attorney, I frequently encounter clients (generally women) who must reenter the work force or find better-paying jobs. At this time in their lives, they have low self-esteem and no idea where or how to start; therefore, I am constantly on the lookout for something that will assist them far more than the few months of rehabilitative alimony I might be able to wring out of their former spouses. Since coming across this book, I have recommended it to many clients. Ms. Hill's approach gives them confidence, direction, and the power to take control of their lives.

                    5 out of 5 stars NEVER SEEN IT THIS GOOD.......2000-01-29

                    Beverly Hill has, in my opinion written the BEST resume book I have ever seen. The design is wonderful, by the time you've read the book, you've written your resume. One of my favorite parts was the chapter on Resume Eliminators. It steers you clear of mistakes you might never have known you were making. And the Peanut Butter Principle! I never knew I could make myself look so good, and it's completley honest! What I really love about this book is it's not just a bunch of forms that everyone has seen a million times. It's a system, put down in a clear and simple manner that allows a person to write a truly exceptional resume, in a relativley short amount of time. And it's not a long, drawn out, boring, hard to read manual. It's easy, it's GREAT! Good for you Ms. Hill!

                    Book Description

                    While Mac OS X garners all the praise from pundits, and Windows XP attracts all the viruses, Linux is quietly being installed on millions of desktops every year. For programmers and system administrators, business users, and educators, desktop Linux is a breath of fresh air and a needed alternative to other operating systems.

                    The Linux Desktop Pocket Guide is your introduction to using Linux on five of the most popular distributions: Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, SUSE, and Ubuntu. Despite what you may have heard, using Linux is not all that hard. Firefox and Konqueror can handle all your web browsing needs; GAIM and Kopete allow you to chat with your friends on the AOL, MSN, and Yahoo! networks; and the email programs Evolution and Kontact provide the same functionality as Microsoft Outlook, with none of the cost. All of these programs run within the beautiful, feature-packed, and easy-to-use GNOME or KDE desktop environments.

                    No operating system truly "just works," and Linux is no exception. Although Linux is capable of running on most any computing hardware that Microsoft Windows can use, you sometimes need to tweak it just a little to make it work the way you really want. To help you with this task, Linux Desktop Pocket Guide covers essential topics, such as configuring your video card, screen resolution, sound, and wireless networking. And laptop users are not left out--an entire section is devoted to the laptop issues of battery life, sleep, and hibernate modes.

                    5 out of 5 stars Great product!.......2007-03-08

                    The Linux Desktop Pocket Guide has helped me to to have a better understanding Linux.

                    5 out of 5 stars Great resource.......2006-08-31

                    This is basically a small format pocket reference to five of the most common desktop distributions of Linux. The distributions covered are Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, SUSE, and Ubuntu. The author covers the basics of navigating the GNOME and KDE desktop environments and the applications that come with each of the distributions. Deviating from the normal layout of such texts it is organized by the type of application instead of by the Linux distribution. As a result if you want to work with the web browser you go to that section where the author discuses the web browsers Firefox and Konquerer. These are the two that are included because each of the distributions has either one or the other.

                    The section on how to add, remove, and update programs is particularly good as it discusses the various techniques including how to add a package that it not part of your distribution. Here the author not only discusses the various package managers included with the distribution but also how to go the long way around and work with rpms. This is not an extensive technical reference to any of the Linux distributions discussed but it is a good first resource for common questions and a good introduction to all of them. Linux Desktop Pocket Guide is recommended for the average Linux user and a must have guide for others who need to know the differences between various distribution.

                    4 out of 5 stars Concise Guide to Linux Desktop Systems.......2006-08-14

                    The Linux Desktop Pocket Guide is a valuable resource for new users to the Linux world. Almost everyone has heard of Linux and recognizes it as the "next big thing". However, many people are taken aback at the shear number of Linux distributions. The advantage of Windows is that there is only one company to go to and that provides some simplicity. With Linux, there is no one-stop shopping, and each distribution has different strengths and weaknesses. This book helps the novice user to navigate the most popular distributions to decide which will work best for them.

                    The book compares Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, SUSE, and Ubuntu with a focus on their desktop environments. This book has some value for system administrators, particularly new ones, but will make the biggest impact to the casual home-user to the beginner power-user.

                    It covers a wide range of desktop issues including Gnome/KDE support, application support, updating the OS, configuration for hardware support, and probably most usefully laptop support. Laptops have traditionally been less than friendly with laptops and this book helps navigate the big issues making Linux a viable option for laptops.

                    It is a little thick as pocket guides go but that's more of a factor of the breadth of material covered. Like many of the O'Reilly books, it is concise and easy-to-read. It is accessible to the unsophisticated user and presents information in manageable chunks. For those looking to get a handle on Linux and making it work for them, this book is a great resource.

                    5 out of 5 stars WHAT'S IN YOUR POCKET?.......2006-02-26

                    Are you using one or more of the following Linux distributions: Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, Novell SUSE, and the desk-top-focused Debian derivative Ubuntu? If you are, then this book is for you! Author David Brickner, has written an outstanding mini guide to help you get the most out of your Linux experience.

                    Brickner, begins with a valuable introduction to the Linux distributions. Then, he devotes a whole chapter to logging in. The author continues by looking GNOME. In addition, he discusses the KDI desktop. The author also presents at least two application programs for each program type. Then, the author shows you the basics of using each of the preferred package managers of each distribution. Next, he discusses how to configure some types of hardware with regards to Linux. Finally, he presents you with a grounding in the basics of what is needed and how the pieces fit together.

                    After reading this excellent book, you'll learn all about the graphical programs and desktop environments that run on top of Linux. This book doesn't shy away from difficult topics in Linux; instead, it jumps right in and tells you what you need to know about laptop power management, configuring your graphics card, and setting up sound and networking.

                    3 out of 5 stars May try to cover too much in too little space..........2005-10-31

                    I recently received a review copy of Linux Desktop Pocket Guide by David Brickner. This is one of those books that you may like or hate depending on what you're looking for...

                    Contents: Distributions; Logging In; GNOME; KDE; Applications; Add, Remove, and Update Programs; Configuration; Laptops; Running Commands and Editing Text; Index

                    Since this is a "pocket guide", I don't expect there to be a lot of conversational writing and screen prints. Normally you get core reference material that you can find and use quickly. The Linux Desktop Pocket Guide seems to be somewhat of a departure from that pattern. There's still no screen prints, which is fine. But I can't tell what level of reader would benefit most from this book. The distribution chapter has a nice short comparison between a number of distro choices, but seems to be a bit light in order for newbies to make decisions (or experts to learn anything new). GNOME and KDE are quick references to the basic desktop tool, and it will help the new Linux user to learn the basic keystrokes and components. The Applications chapter is a high-level sweep through some of the basic choices of software for things like media manipulation and office productivity software. Add/Remove finally starts to show the pattern of other pocket guides, by recapping the command line choices possible for installing programs on the different distros. Configuration and Laptops can help the reader get things like mice and sound cards running, but if you run into problems, there's not a lot of additional troubleshooting stuff here. Finally, the Running Commands appendix is just a short two or three page chapter on how the command line works.

                    In my opinion, I'd try and look at this book first before buying it. I'm just not sure if there's a single audience that this would appeal to without exception...

                        5 out of 5 stars Tepper's power techniques will stay with you forever........1999-02-19

                        This was THE book that made the difference in writing my own resume, as well as writing resumes for others. Tepper's power resume approach consists of identifying value-added benefits (as in the kinds of problems you can solve), not features (as in job duties and responsibilities), that show a hiring manager what you as the applicant can add to the bottom line...without saying it. It shows you how to carefully match your qualifications with the requirements of top jobs using 10 power resume ingredients that can also be incorporated into your job search. Although this book takes awhile to read, and it is geared towards those in the executive job market, the techniques learned here will stay with you forever.

                        5 out of 5 stars Great book for over-achievers!.......1998-09-18

                        This is one of the best practical books I've ever read, with a wealth of tips, tactics and examples. It shows you how to get a plum position in today's aggressive job market, from resumes and cover letters, to searches, contacts and interviews.

                        While Ron Tepper geared this book to the executive job market, the techniques and concepts are transferrable to other sectors. This one book made me change the way I presented myself, and my resume to prospective employers, and how I taught my clientele to write resumes.
