No matter what your "art" is you'll face hard times. Though sometimes a bit esoteric, this book carefully summerizes the experience of the creative and gives hope for the future of creativity in one's self. Short and beautiful.

This book quickly covers topics discussed by others. It lacks the detail of some, but this is also a virtue as it's very quick to get through and easy to absorb. A great crash course in communication that paves the way for a more complex study.

This book is famous for a reason. Divided into three section, each with roughly 10 steps per, this book teaches the reader how to better communicate. Many if the steps are familiar, but hearing them said out loud hammers it home. Easy to listen to, helpful, and great for both business people and the average person. This should be required study material.

This book is quick, witty, and deeply human. The advice is relevant and up to date. Finally, someone explains YouTube in a way that isn't so cluttered or commercial. I absolutely love this book and found the advice in it simple, stunning, and invaluable. This is a must read for anyone interested in advancing their social presence. Not just on YouTube, but on social media in general. I highly recommend it!

Story
The chartered Zarathustra Company had it all their way. Their charter was for a Class III uninhabited planet, which Zarathustra was, and it meant they owned the planet lock stock and barrel. They exploited it, developed it and reaped the huge profits from it without interference from the Colonial Government. Then Jack Holloway, a sunstone prospector, appeared on the scene with his family of Fuzzies and the passionate conviction that they were not cute animals but little people.

Great classic scifi!
Reviewed: 05-18-18
A wonderful scifi story hailing back from '67! I'm taken back to my childhood of listen to radio shows like X Minus One... H B Piper was a writer on that show before, too!
A great adventure concerning psychology, ecology, law, and dangers of unchecked business. Messages still very relevant today!
Beautiful reading. My only complaint us that I found a few character' s voices distracting, and a few others a bit similar.
Please add the rest of the series! Especially Golden Dream: A Fuzzy Odyssey.
