one tree hill .......2007-02-27

i think its a really good book for fans but im not a really good fan so i dint really get it but its good writing n a good book. but i dint get it since im not a fan

Interesting backstory!.......2007-01-11

I actually liked reading this. It was fun and interesting to see how their lives were before the pilot episode. It was good to see what they were up to and how their relationships were. One of the things I really liked was how the opened each chapter. For Haley it was song lyrics, Lucas of course deep quotes, Peyton it was her blog, and Nathan was his athletic journal. It really gave insight to the characters and their interests. Obviously there was some things that didn't fit in with what happened on the show like the fact that Lucas and Haley go to a party at Nathan's but in the show that hadn't been to one until after Lucas joined the team. Even with that I still liked it. Although I thought it got a little carried away in the part where Brooke's boyfriend hit her in front of everyone at the carnival thing and the whole thing about Skils. Other than that it was a good read.

Great, but not without issues.......2005-01-25

I found this book very good. Unlike most of the WB's books this started before the show which made it much more interesting.
As a die-hard fan i really enjoyed this book. But I did have a few issues as well.
It seemed that the issues happening before the "pilot" were something that should've have been mentioned in the show. I know that this wasnt written before the show, but I nit pick at everything to make sure it fits together, and personally they dont seem to fit.
An example is episode 103 "Crash Into You" that was centered around Lucas' first glimpse into Nathan's world, but in the book he and Haleyy go to one of his parties and they get in a fight.
There were also a few ediing errors such as saying "Nathan said" in a conversation between LUcas and Haley when Lucas said it.
All those aside, this was still an excellent book and i would recammend it to any fan.

This is AWFUL.......2005-01-20

I usually enjoy reading books that are adapted from a television show becuase I could get inside their head but this was awful. I read maybe that first two pages and put it down. I felt like I was reading a fifth grader's story. This was the worst $6 I've ever spent. If you want to understand One Tree Hill you'd best by the DVD because you are just going to get a headache from this pre-teen, dare I say, novel.

Book Description

Everyone at Tree Hill High knows that Brooke Davis is popular, pretty, and can have any boy she wants. What they don't know is that sometimes she is insecure and lonely, and the only boy she really wants is the one who broke her heart: Lucas Scott.

Learn what this year is like for Brooke when the parties end. Follow her as she struggles with the breakdown of her parents’ marriage, petty jealousies that threaten to tear her and best friend Peyton apart, heartache as she gets closer to Lucas and stops denying her real feelings, and triumph when she surprises everyone, including herself, with a bid for the class presidency.
See the whole OTH gang — Haley, Nathan, Peyton, Mouth, Tim, and the new kids on the block, Felix and Anna — but see them through Brooke’s eyes: sometimes funny and sometimes sad, but above all, always true.

A Book So True.......2007-03-08

I am not the typical person who watches ONE TREE HILL and definately not the type of guy who would pick up a book based on the series. After all, I'm straight. And a guy.

But last year I was on a trip and found this book in my hotel room. Having run out of everything else I gave it a try--and was quite surprised.

Anna Lotto has taken teenage "types" and turned them into people. People with real problems, with real dreams and real love to give. As we read about the new kid who comes to school and steals her heart by playfully teasing her, I couldn't help but think back to my own days in High School and how much things have changed, and at the same time how little.

Ms. Lotto knows how to keep the melodrama to the minimum and keeps offering the reader little presents with each turn of the page.

A real treat.

Not What I Expected........2007-01-11

When I got this book I was excited to read it because I thought I was going to get a good book with Brooke's POV on the events of Season 2 and extra things about her. After reading it I was very disappointed because they just changed not only the events but the characters weren't even the same as they are on the show. It's like the author re-wrote the whole season and characters. First off the book was very anti-Haley. All you read about her was her secretly meeting and flirting with Chris, going behind Nathan's back and she never made it to formal because she was with Chris, and Brooke basically insulted her through the whole book and thought she was annoying. When in the show they were somewhat friends. Not only that but when she left to go on the tour she left a letter to Nathan that made it sound like she left to run off with Chris. Then the whole Felix thing. They painted him to be a saint. It was like I was being introduced to a whole other character, instead of the one we met on the show. Then there were certain events that were just completely changed. The only fun part to read was the end when Brooke and Lucas got together, it was the author's own way of getting them together unlike waiting like the show did. It was just disappointing to me. If you're going to write using events that happened on the show stay true to how they happened. Because if your going to completely change the history of a season you should have just come up with your own fictional events or make it better, not destroy it. Because all through the book all I thought was "That's not how it happened.", "Brooke and Haley were good friends on the show and now Brooke hated her all along?", "Haley never did that.", "That's not the way Felix was.", it was just annoying. I spent more time complaing than enjoying the book. It's a good item to have if you are a hardcore One Tree Hill fan and collect all things OTH like I do, but if you aren't I wouldn't bother.

Amazing.......2006-07-04

I am a huge fan of One Tree Hill and watch it every week. This book is by far the best One Tree Hill book. It shows all of Brooke's feeling and emotions and they writing is really great. I am a huge fan of the Brooke/Lucas relationship and of Brooke. Now if you like the Lucas/Peyton relationship or just don't like Brooke then this probably isn't the book for you. The book is mostly based around Brooke recovering from the heartache that the whole Brooke/Lucas/Peyton love triangle caused her. It most shows Brooke's relationship with Lucas,Peyton, and her parents...which is a good thing that we get to read something about her parents cause they aren't involved in the show that much. Overall this is a great book and once you pick it up you won't be able to put it down.

i LOVE this book!.......2006-05-13

eh.......2004-07-15

if you need this guide to be successful at the game, you might consider playing another game.

Worth it if the price is right... as in free........2003-11-12

This guide came bundled with a package set of HoMM III and IV. The most useful information it has are the tables, which are the same as what's in the manual. However, in the bundle, the manual was electronic, so it was nice to have a hard copy. Other than that, close to useless.

Book Description

The seventh edition of this best-selling book continues to provide readers with a realistic picture of actual collective bargaining and labor relations situations drawn from the authors' considerable experiences. Sections of actual labor agreements as well as arbitration cases and decisions of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and the courts illustrate and emphasize contemporary issues of collective bargaining and labor relations. Experts in the fields of labor law and arbitration have contributed “tips” on how the concepts in the book can actually be applied. In addition to covering history and law, workplace challenges, the collective bargaining process, and labor contracts, major features of this new edition include expanded coverage of public sector labor relations, international collective bargaining issues, union organizing and avoidance strategies, and collective bargaining in professional sports. Because of its comprehensive coverage and excellent resource material, this book is an excellent reference for human resource directors, labor relations directors, personnel directors, and labor negotiators.

Customer Reviews:

Dry.......2007-02-19

I only bought this book because I'm in labor relations class. It's as dry as a piece of stale bread. But if you want to know anything and everything about Labor Relations and the history, BUY IT!

My first textbook order from Amazon.......2007-01-11

This is the first time I have order a textbook online. My experience was awesome. I received my order in a timely manner. The textbook was in outstanding condition. This text consisted of labor law material along with various labor law cases and procedures. I just order another book I am awaiting for the early arrival of this text.
THANK YOU AMAZON !!

Fairly good - Not excellent.......2004-11-19

I just took a college level class in which we used this book as the textbook. There is a lot of good information inside which provides a good introduction to the novice on how the process of collective bargaining works. It begins with the history of how it started and continues through the specific issues that collective bargaining entails. There is even a copy of the National Labor Relations Act in the back of the book.

There are some rough spots that should be worked out in the next edition however. Sometimes I found myself lost in the verbage that the author chose to use and had no idea what the point had been. The case studies at the ends of the chapters have no solutions, they ask questions of you and then leave you - a novice - to flounder with no professional direction in the event - which is frequent - that you can't figure out the answer. And, there are some typo's in key locations which end up disproving, instead of proving, the point that the author was attempting to make (very confusing.)

This text is best used in conjunction with lectures by a good professor if you want to get the most out of it.

Great Book.......2002-05-17

Great book for the novice negotiator or student.Current, easy to read, practical examples.

Concise & complete.......2002-04-11

The authors provide a complete & concise discussion of the process of collective bargaining within a general labor relations context. Many, current cases, tips from experts, and historical references help present the concepts. A solid text for the novice negotiator or interested student.
