		<description>Nice rejoinder, Ian.  I was impressed with the in depth report on lessons learned, the value you enjoy from having read the book.  Suave.

I encountered Eliyahu Goldratt's "The Goal" on audio tape, and I found it fascinating.  The story actually drags out a lot, but held my interest well.  And in the middle were some fundamentals that explain a lot - from business, to why we have stop-and-go traffic jams (cars following too close, they don't allow for varied acceleration rates of other cars).  

I will look for 'Tactics of Mistake" by Gordon R. Dickson.  I think I read most of the Childe Cycle and Dorsai books, back in the day.  I may have actually read it ..

I find a lot of insight and guidance to character values in some of the Sharon Lee and Steve Miller 'Liaden Universe' books.  And Kristine Smith's "Code of Conduct", "Law of Survival" series has me thinking, "Well done, and truly."  

Thanks!</description>
