The effects of the online revolution are being felt far beyond Silicon Valley, and now all businesses -- from start-ups to established companies -- face "survival of the fittest." A company or product can be an industry leader one moment and obsolete six months later. Entire industries, ranging from computer sales to stock trading, are being thrown into chaos as consumers and businesses shift buying patterns to take advantage of the convenience and cost savings that are available over the Web. For companies, this pressing need to continually create new, different, better products to stay one step ahead of the competition defines the new reality of business today, the world of "HyperWars." To stay afloat, business managers need practical guidance, and they need it fast. Drawing on extensive research and his pioneering experience in e-commerce, industry innovator Bruce Judson outlines eleven practical strategies for thriving in this hypercompetitive environment. Including "Use the Internet as the World''s Most Sophisticated Telephone" and "The Magic in ''Free,''" these visionary strategies are illustrated with hundreds of examples of Internet initiatives real companies -- from pool suppliers to major businesses like Cisco and Chrysler -- are implementing today. Not just for companies selling products over the Web, HyperWars explains how the Internet can and must be incorporated into all of a business''s operations, to do everything from cutting procurement, marketing, and communication costs to deepening customer relationships. Both a wide-ranging analysis of the massive changes the Web is bringing to all industries and a crucial, groundbreaking redefinition of business strategies, HyperWars provides readers with the essential tools they need to survive and profit in the new competitive era.

Ronni Eisenberg, author of the popular but slightly more intimidating Organize Yourself!, has deconstructed the potentially hair-raising projects of getting the house in order: organizing closet space, filing household documents (do you know for sure if junior needs a tetanus shot anytime soon), finagling some counter space in the kitchen, and even keeping photo negatives from seeming to multiply like rabbits and threatening to overtake the living room. Eisenberg reveals how to trim daunting tasks (like clearing up the garage) into manageable chunks. If you''re frazzled with worry about what sort of critters may be nesting in your attic or have gone 15,000 miles without an oil change or find yourself at the checkout of the grocery store grappling to find that Cheerios coupon that you know you stuffed in your wallet, only to find it two months later in the back of kitchen junk drawer, sadly expired, this book''s for you.

From the authors of the national bestseller "You Mean I''m Not Lazy, Stupid, or Crazy?!" comes a book of encouraging daily guidance for adults with Attention Deficit Disorder.

In The ADDed Dimension, Kate Kelly, Peggy Ramundo, and D. Steven Ledingham offer insight--with wise, clear eyes and well-developed senses of humor--into every facet of the ADD experience, from issues of work, parenting, and relationships to those of organizational skills and stress. ADDers know enough about the "disadvantages" of ADD, and this is much more than just a guide to solving problems. At its heart, its aim is self-realization, the feeling of standing, feet firmly planted, on the common ground all ADDers walk. Along the way, it celebrates the good news about ADD: the fact that "different" doesn''t mean "worse," and more often might mean "better," especially when energy, creativity, and humor are concerned. What to do after you or your loved one has come to terms with ADD, but need help at times in keeping perspective, in relating the disorder to everyday life issues and experiences? Now, with The ADDed Dimension, there''s a single book that can help.
