Streetsmart guide to valuing a stock: the savvy investors key to beating the market By Gary Gray, Patrick Cusatis, J. Woolridge 2004 | 289 Pages | ISBN: 0071416668 | PDF | 4 MB If you do not know how to value a stock, how do you know if you are getting a good deal? You don't. Valuations are important and this book teaches readers how to estimate the intrinsic value of a company and its stock. I like how the author makes the point that investors must first like the company and that valuation is secondary. Valuations only help investors with determining if the stock is overvalued or undervalued.Analysts also publish their opinions of intrinsic values. The author makes readers aware that valuation results depend on certain assumptions. Investors equipped with the skills of valuing companies will be able to make valuation determinations without relying on analysts who are biased and do not necessarily act in the best interest of individual investors. I highly recommend this book to investors. - Mariusz Skonieczny, author of Why Are We So Clueless about the Stock Market?

Citizens are increasingly encouraged to live more compactly; in denser urban developments, to use less water and other natural resources and to choose public transport. While councils, government agencies and private business invest in a broad range of promotions offering discounts on sustainable products and services, uptake has been slow and the impacts marginal at a time when environmental stresses suggest that we must act fast. This book examines this pressing problem in a holistic way, discussing broad-scale sustainability policies and programmes for achieving sustainable urban futures. It brings together academics and practitioners to analyse the complexity and interdependence of principles, models, processes and practices of sustainability in a range of integrated sectors as well as the establishment and maintenance of sustainable physical infrastructure in cities.

However, the convergence of these topics has, to date, been covered only minutely. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy with Clients Managing Trauma is a comprehensive overview of how Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) can be used as a treatment approach for working with clients managing various forms of trauma. It includes an overview of SFBT's basic tenets, a description of the current research supporting SFBT as an evidence-based practice, and a comparison of how SFBT clinicians may approach trauma cases differently than clinicians from other therapeutic approaches. The bulk of the text uniquely includes chapters contributed by skilled SFBT clinicians, with differing clinical expertise, sharing their knowledge and describing their strength-based, resiliency focus of applying SFBT in different traumatic circumstances. Practitioners and even Master's/doctoral students will find this text invaluable in learning how to best help traumatized clients develop a positive future and move toward healing and health.
