Catch wisdom this big...!!!

I came across this wonderful book while searching for an Operations research book written by Dr. Ignizio. It struck me as rather curious as why such an eminence in his field (apollo project to name one)would wonder into the non-academic world with bits of wisdom seen through the fisherman?s eye. It turned out to be a surprise as any as I have seen before, not only advice on how to manage your middle age crisis, but also how...

Witty, practical and charming is FISHY BIZ!

I truly enjoyed Fishy Business! Authors James and Bill Ignazio have combined the best advice for fisherman with the best advice for managers to create a practical and totally entertaining paperback of wisdom.

Through Old Angler, and...

Fishy Business is great.

Light hearted yet informative, Fishy Business offers a fresh approach to business analogies. I wish more of my colleagues would read this book.

Fishy Business is great!

Finally, a business book that makes sense. That's just what I thought after reading "Fishy Business." Instead of preparing for war, the authors tell people in business to relax and enjoy life. Go fishing. I especially liked this get back to basics theme. I think college business courses would be a lot more interesting if professors used books like this one. If you are in business, you really have to get this one. It's...
