Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
"Entertaining…both Adam Smith and Horatio Alger would find something to like in the rise of T. Boone Pickens." -Wall Street Journal "The latest memoir from the Texas oilman…Pickens' sauciness does entertain." -Time magazine "Sassy…breezes along…salted with earthy aphorisms." -Bloomberg.com "Self-deprecating and audacious…overall, it's decidedly informative about the machinations of business." -Dallas Morning News "A fascinating, eye-opening bookby one of America's greatest iconoclasts andentrepreneurs. Boone Pickens' sense of daring and innovation has never been sharper. Readers will quickly realize that this billionaire's extraordinary achievements are but a warm-up for what he is about to do now." -Steve Forbes, President and CEO, Forbes Inc., and Editor-in-Chief ofForbesmagazine "Boone's analysis of America's energy situation is 100% on the money. In easy and colorful language he tells us where we are going wrong and what we must do about it. The country should listen to him - now!" -Warren Buffett, Chairman and CEO, Berkshire Hathaway "It is inspiring to see Boone Pickens tackling the big issues, daring himself to think bigger, putting forward wind, water and energy ideas that are nothing less than paradigm busters. This absorbing and illuminating book shows why Boone has been more successful than just about all his competitors, and, more crucially, why the problem of resource scarcity may not be as insoluble as some think." -Jeffrey Immelt, CEO, General Electric "Boone Pickens was among the first to grasp that corporations can be marvelous catalysts for progress if individual investors are given a say in what their priorities should be. Today, as humanity faces resource scarcity and dwindling supplies of cheap energy, the responsibility that has devolved to entrepreneurs, and the investors who back them, has never been more immense. Yet, in recounting his own story of comeback after comeback and tackling some of history's biggest oil, wind and water projects, Boone shows that sometimes all it takes is rejecting the 'usual' and striking out across virgin territory. In that sense, Boone is a pioneer, and this is a pioneer's story. Even now, the man they call the Oracle of Oil is blazing new paths that may, indeed, lead us out of the predicament we find ourselves in." -Carl Icahn, Chairman, Icahn & Co., Inc.

- 7***j (856)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.All the President's Men - 9780671894412, paperback, Bob Woodward (Nr. 396668604901)
- k***o (17)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI ordered three items from this seller, and one was damaged in transit (the seller is not at fault for this). However the seller very quickly righted everything, communicating with me the entire time. The other two items were in perfect condition, arrived on time, and were exactly as described. They were very quick to fix what was wrong, and were very polite about the entire thing. I will be buying from them again in the future.The Liar - hardcover, Nora Roberts, 0399170863 (Nr. 284903186562)
- r***r (7529)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe seller Orion Tech LLC is one of my occasional shopping sites. This purchase I had a problem, the only one so far. The books were packed well, shipped quickly and just as described. But this was not the book I ordered. I sent two photos of the book received and the ISBN code and I received a prompt refund. I bought two books the third book was free! I am still delighted being an Orion Tech Books customer and will be shopping at Orion Tech Books in the future. Thank you.
