Publisher's Summary:

This short audiobook summarizes a case involving Disneyland Resorts. I view the case from a business student perspective. I have used my educational background and knowledge to correctly execute this case analysis. This case analysis should provide a good learning resource on what a case analysis should sound like. It could be used to make opinions on resort parks and the ways that they should conduct business. I have used data from class to support my decision on why Disneyland Resorts should perform certain business actions or why they shouldn't.

I have an associate's degree in business management technology and also possess a bachelor's degree in business management from Tiffin University.

Great review of a case involving Disneyland

A great review and scholarly analysis of the Disneyland Resort company. This audiobook was a perfect buy for any student wanting to learn more about case studies.

Best look at Disneyland!

Would you consider the audio edition of Disneyland Resort Case Analysis to be better than the print version?

I would consider the audio version better because it's short, concise, and does a great job of telling the truth about Disneyland.

Length: 7 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-07-15

Publisher: Trevor Clinger

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes

Publisher's Summary:

Trade restrictions prevent a country from trading with another country. Trade restrictions are needed for various reasons that the average person will not be able to understand. Without trade restrictions, domestic businesses would fail and foreign nations would prosper. In this short audiobook, I provide six reasons for why government needs to amend and enforce international trade restrictions.

I hold an Associate's Degree of Business Management, and also possess a Bachelor's Degree of Business Management.

LOVED THE AGAINST VERSION OF THIS BOOK TOO

What made the experience of listening to Reasons for International Trade Restrictions the most enjoyable?

I found it enjoyable because in today's government, we constantly battle the argument whether to have trade restrictions or not.

Useful overview - poor delivery

Interesting + useful information. Shame the narrator sounds like a robot on the verge of suicide.

Title: Good Value

Subtitle: Reflections on Money, Morality and an Uncertain World

Author: Stephen Green

Narrator: Robert Feifar

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs

Language: English

Release date: 05-06-15

Publisher: Audible Studios

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

Can one be both an ethical person and an effective businessperson? Stephen Green, an ordained priest and the chairman of HSBC, thinks so. In Good Value, Green retraces the history of the global economy and its financial systems, and shows that while the marketplace has delivered huge advantages to humanity, it has also abandoned over a billion people to extreme poverty, encouraged overconsumption and debt, and ravaged the environment.

How do we reconcile the demands of capitalism with both the common good and our own spiritual and psychological needs as individuals? To answer that, and some of the most vexing questions of our age, Green takes us on a lively and erudite journey through history, looking for lessons in the work of economists and philosophers, businessmen and poets, theologians and novelists, playwrights and political scientists.

An essential business audiobook by a man who is uniquely qualified to write it, Good Value is a timely and persuasive analysis of the most pressing financial and moral questions we face.

Members Reviews:

Religion and Capitalism

For readers interested in how religion informs views of capitalism, this is an excellent example.

No matter what you think of Green's argument, it's a beautifully written and lucid book that ranges widely in history and literature. It's a book not just about financial policy but about living a meaningful, examined life.

As a writer, Green has an eye for the telling factual detail. To cite just one example, on globalization: "I have listened to the work of and Italian composer (Puccini) in a Chinese opera house (in Beijing) designed by a Frenchman (Paul Andreu)."

At its core, though, this is a book about what Green sees as the limits of capitalism and how he hopes to transform it.

Early on, Green quotes Milton Friedman's view that "There is one and only one social responsibility of business - to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits so long as it stays within the rules of the game, which is to say, engages in open and free competition without deception or fraud."

Green calls that view "dangerously simplistic," and says businesses now "must consider value from the perspective not just of investors, but of customers, employees, suppliers, communities and - increasingly - the environment, too."

Green's own feelings about free-market capitalism are mixed: "At its best, as we have seen, there is no more powerful engine for development and liberation than the market. At its worst, it is a dangerous moral pollutant that nourishes some very poisonous weeds in us."

At time, Green is downright hostile. He quotes Paul: "The love of money is the root of all evil." Money, he writes, has become "the modern Mephistopheles," the servant of Lucifer, the Devil.

What is the alternative? "After 2007-2009, the manifest failure of market fundamentalism and the need for a rebalancing of the world's economy will inevitably be the starting point of a new world order," Green writes.

Very informative

Though the narration wasn't the best, the book itself had lots of great info on pornography, a bit on history and some great stuff about the industry as a whole.

This audiobook was jam packed full!

This audiobook delivered a lot more than I was expecting. Great writing by the author, and smooth narration by the narrator! I appreciate someone coming out an being honest about this "hidden" industry.

Members Reviews:

Don't waste your money. Distracting performance

Would you try another book from Edward E. Felder Jr. and/or Trey Thomas?

No. Too silly.

What could Edward E. Felder Jr. have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Find someone else to read it who does not sound like a mid-night TV pitchman and un-funny comedian.

What didnt you like about Trey Thomass performance?

Perhaps there was good information in the book, but the presentation was so distracting, I could not take any of it seriously or listen to the entire book.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No

Any additional comments?

Overall the materials are fairly basic and have no depth. Suggest fleshing out the material to better understand the lender's perspective in order to provide them a winning presentation. I've had to seek other books for additional information for my lending package.

Once complete, re-do this audio book in a more serious format. It is not written in a funny way, is not presented in a funny way, yet it appears the author thinks he is funny. Annoying is a better description than funny. Making matters worse, he hired poorly trained voice talent to try to make this material more interesting than it is. A bad combination.

If he likes this presentation, I suggest the author and voice talent move into selling Asian knives and ubber fast blenders on the midnight infomercials where this presentation style, incomplete information, and limited talent for over the top in-eloquence will bring them fame and fortune.

Title: Pacioli's Gift or Bernanke's Curse?

Subtitle: Why What We Use as Money Matters, Book 5

Author: David Mint

Narrator: Trevor Croft

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 5 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-21-15

Publisher: The Wilcox Trading Company

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

In response to what has become known as the financial crisis of 2008, the central bankers of the world have employed nearly every form of monetary alchemy at their disposal in a desperate attempt to maintain the status quo. The status quo, which in this case means that all commercial banks and sovereign governments remain both liquid and solvent, has become increasingly difficult to maintain, as each attempt to stimulate economic growth via ultra-low discount rates and quantitative easing has seen a diminishing marginal return in terms of economic growth. The longer the central banks of the world engage in these and other forms of financial alchemy, which in the end serve as futile attempts to defy immutable natural laws, the greater the danger of a complete economic collapse becomes.

The unconventional measures employed by the central bankers of the world over the past five years are not only failing to achieve their stated goals of increasing employment and economic growth; they are triggering what is quickly becoming an unmitigated disaster in fixed-income markets. These markets, once the bedrock of global finance, have now been conditioned, in the Pavlovian sense, to do nothing more than attempt to front run the actions of the Federal Reserve and other central banks up and down the yield curve.

As the chaos continues to unfold, it is important to examine and understand how humanity has arrived at this critical juncture in history. It is the aim of this volume to answer this question by exploring two of the oft-overlooked elements that have, each in its own way, given rise to the system that enables a relatively small group of persons the ability to destroy the accumulated wealth of mankind's 9,000 years of toil in just over 100. These elements are commonly known as dual-entry accounting, which we refer to as mankind's greatest invention, and central banking, which we refer to as mankind's greatest catastrophe.

Bad, I mean bad, narration.

In the range and enthusiasm of a flight attendant's takeoff routine.

Can't say if I liked the book, I kept losing concentration because the narrator was so dull.

Title: How a Pyramid Scheme Works

Author: Trevor Clinger

Narrator: Adam Zens

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-16-15

Publisher: Trevor Clinger

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

Who thought fraudulent businessmen would one day take advantage of Egyptian style architecture? The pyramids in Egypt are massive buildings that make you reconsider just how beautiful architecture is. The architecture of a pyramid scheme, however, is far quite far from being beautiful. A pyramid scheme occurs when the leader of the scheme starts to promise payments or services if members enroll other people in this particular scheme.

Through business knowledge, and my own personal experience with a scheme, this short audiobook may be beneficial in helping you determine whether a business is a pyramid scheme or not. Some may be more obvious than you'd think.

Members Reviews:

PERFECT DEFINITION AND EXPLANATION!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would highly recommend this book for analyzing questionable businesses. There are some still in existence this very day.
