Advantages: Honest and funny Disadvantages: Could do with a little more input in places
Firstly I'd like to say I?m a big fan of Justin Lee Collins, since me and my partner first watched him on "10 things you didn't know about..." on BRAVO TV as the bad boy from Bristol, partly because he's Bristolian and he also grew up and went to the same school as i did (Although 10 years apart and have never met him, not that I can remember anyway), he is very witty with a dry sense of humour and doesn't seem to have forgotten his roots or forgotten those along the way. But I am going to write my review about his autobiography in an unbiased opinion as possible.
Secondly, I'd like to express my excitement at stumbling across his brand new hard back edition for £3.25 in a local charity! Good Times! To show my appreciation of my lucky buy I will be donating it to a local animal welfare fun day, so they can raise that little bit ...
Advantages: presents a gripping new look on the Atlantis theory Disadvantages: quite a long and detailed book
Anyone familiar with Collins previous works, such as From the Ashes of Angels, will know that he is an author who is not afraid to tackle difficult subjects from a new angle. Anyone familiar with the myriad writtings that have made comment on Atlantis will know that it is one of the most difficult subjects to pin down in any factual context. The combination of such an author tackling such a subject makes for a fantastic and seductive combination.
So much has been written about Atlantis since Plato first mentioned the story, that it seems that there could be no room for a new theory, but this is not the case. The problem with Atlantis is that it can be all things to all people, it is more of an idea than a working subject. To the classical historian it is the Thera eruption, to the mythologist it is a sunken Atlantic kingdom, others ...
Advantages: I cry with laughter Disadvantages: Rude, sexist, racist and price of DVD
This is a party political broadcast on behalf of the Purple Party; the leader of the party is Jim Davidson.
I know I am going to get some stick for this but what if Jim Davidson was Prime Minister? For one thing he would not be walked over like some of them are (I'm not mentioning any names) and he would not take any crap, why because he knows where his nuts are!
If you did not like that then I apologise but it is going to get worse.
The Show
=
Jim Davidson has made this a very British live show including having the national anthem as he enters on stage with a very large Union Jack hung as the background. There is a speakers' podium in the centre of the stage and he is dressed in a pin stripped suit.
As you probably would imagine Jim does have a good moan about Tony Blair but if you think it is over an hour of Jim ...

Manufacturer's product description
Five years ago Jim Collins asked the question, "Can a good company become a great company, and if so, how?" In <I>Good to Great</I> Collins, the author of <I>Built to Last</I> concludes that it is possible, but finds that there are no silver bullets to greatness. Collins and his team of researchers began their quest by sorting through a list of 1,435 companies, looking for those that made substantial improvements in their performance over time. They finally settled on 11--including Gillette, Walgreens and Wells Fargo--and discovered common traits that challenged many of the conventional notions of corporate success. Making the transition from good to great doesn't require a high-profile CEO, the latest technology, innovative change management or even a fine-tuned business strategy. At the heart of those rare and truly great companies was a corporate culture that rigorously found and promoted disciplined people to think and act in a disciplined manner. Peppered with dozens of stories and examples from the great and not-so-great, Collins lays a well-reasoned roadmap to excellence that any organisation would do well to consider. Like <I>Built to Last</I>, <I>Good to Great</I> is one of those books that managers and CEOs will be reading and rereading for years to come. --<I>Harry C Edwards</I>
