    On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? In this brilliantly conceived tour de force, Stephen King - who has absorbed the social, political, and popular culture of his generation more imaginatively and thoroughly than any other writer - takes listeners on an incredible journey into the past and the possibility of altering it.

    Craig Wasson does a wonderful job of bringing the characters alive through inflection, accents and pace.

    The audio that shows how to get the job done and deliver results...whether you're running an entire company or in your first management job. Larry Bossidy and Ram Charan, who Jack Welch calls "a great practitioner and an insightful theorist," collaborate on a "compelling business story of 'how to get it done.'"

    Story

    Truly disappointing. A number of items contributed to theis book's failure: 1) The authors take turns giving examples of those who 'executed' their plans, but provide no insight as to how you can revitalize yourself into that mindset. A number of the references to those that were successful at execution succeeded personally, but at the sacrifice of the employees in their wake (e.g. EDS) - this truly put me off. 2) There was no logical organization of content, just endless examples of those the authors considered to be succcesses broken up by "Chapter [insert number here]". The chapter breaks just seemd like markers so that each author had his fair turn reading, which brings me to 3) Authors should never assume they can read their own works better than a professional - ever.
