Advanced Accounting.......2006-11-03
The text itself is fairly understandable, current and consistant. The problems are mostly with the exercises, problems and on-line supplements and quizes, especially for the government and to a lesser extent, the non-profit accounting chapters. Not all of the wordings and answers in these areas have been updated to the current GASB 34 and 35 statements that the text is teaching to. This is a difficult topic to begin with and having these conflicts makes it that much more difficult to grasp the material correctly.

A great craft.......2007-03-16
Okay, first and foremost I love making 3d models out of paper, papercraft is one of my most beloved hobbies. With that said this is a great template to create an amazing working paper clock. It is challenging only in the fact that you must be accurate and cannot cut or fold slopply and get away with it. I had to make the main gear and two of the other sub gears several times before I could get the clock to work. It is a challange and it will take about a week to build if you work dilligently every night for about 1-2 hours. I enjoyed building it as much as I enjoy looking at it now. I have bought several copies of the book and recommend it to anyone who is interested in a good project that leaves you with an amazing piece of art when you are done. A definate conversation piece.
Tick tock.......2007-02-11
We built this clock in the late seventies. I have two copies now on my shelf waiting for some volunteer to scan it. I'm sure Gutenberg could find a place for it . We hardened some of the gears with coats of thinned Elmers glue. I think we made the weights and later borrowed the weights from a Cuckoo clock. The pendulum was a coat hanger. We gave it a little more clearance from the wall by making it a little wooden plaque.It hung in the same room as an English case clock from the 1700's and a cuckoo clock from Heidleberg. It ran (when wound) for about five years. It shared a column with two painted fish cookies from Chinatown (also hardened with Elmer's) As I remember they all finally succumbed to a combination of dogs and mildew.
Getting it to work is great! keeping it working is astounding!.......2006-12-07
When I was on a Submarine while in the US Navy I built one. It worked for about twenty minutes. Then everybody and their brother took a shot at fixing that !@#$%^ paper clock in the crew's lounge. There were Nuclear Machinist Mates, Radio and Radar Technicians, Torpedomen, and even the Cooks took a shot. The Officers pretended to think it was beneath them until sombody saw the Engineer fiddling with it. Then the whole crew played with it. It was a great group project. A real camraderie builder. After a month or so of tinkering we ran the damn thing through the shredder. It was a totally fun project and watching know-it-alls fail to fix it was priceless.
There really is a secret to getting it to work that I know and will share if you e-mail me. my third one worked good. Here is a hint Measure Measure Mesure Measure Measure Mesure Measure Measure Mesure Measure Measure Mesure Measure Measure Mesure Measure Measure Mesure Measure Measure Mesure, RTFIx2, and NEVER ASSUME!
Frustration and depression.......2006-08-05
Of the 17 reviews here, only three claim to have got the clock to work. I'm surprised there are any at all. I got as far as the escapement, but no amount of twiddling and adjusting would get it to work properly. Isaac Asimov in the Introduction recommends buying two copies, so that you can learn from your mistakes, but I don't see how that would help, since I already had cut and assembled as painstakingly as I am capable. I think the source of my problems may have been the gluing, which warped some of the parts. But I don't see any way of avoiding this: the parts have protrusions which prevent them being squashed between heavy books as they dry. Perhaps using a different glue? By the time I realized that it was never going to work, I had already spent so many hours working at it that the frustration led to depression.
Educational if not functional.......2006-01-03
My husband and I just finished a New Year's weekend marathon of clockmaking.
I got this book years ago, attempted it once and bailed out at piece 57 or so. This time he and I finished it together (Having another person I think is VERY helpful so you can keep each other motivated.)
There are several typos in the book as mentioned above and as one of the other reviewers mentioned, the instructions for the last sections -- for constructing the minute and hour hand pieces and the final assembly are sketchy at best. Consulting the drawings can be helpful, but I have to say it also just makes you figure out for yourself how the thing ought to work -- then you put it together accordingly.
Our hands and backs are aching, but it's put together and we're still together. We still have to adjust the pendulum fork and also the escapement wheel, but after 18 hours, we're ready to look at it as a lovely objet d'art, not a timekeeper.
I don't think we'd do it again -- that would be my third go and his second -- but it was very cool to do it once.
Customer Reviews:
Excellent book for practitioners.......2005-08-04
This book covers a wide variety of topics related to employee selection: adverse impact, test validation, job analysis, structured interviews, setting cutoff scores, and establishing training and education requirements. The book is a great reference for practitioners who want to get the "big picture" about setting up a state-of-the-art selection system. Probably the greatest strength of the book is the discussion of adverse impact. The author provides some background and insight on this topic that is not found in other books. What would improve this book? More detail on each of the topics. But, overall, well written and useful.
