Dr. John Andreas Olsen has written an insightful, compelling biography of retired U.S. Air Force colonel John A. Warden III, the brilliant but controversial air warfare theorist and architect of Operation Desert Storm s air campaign.

Legendary in defense circles, Warden is also the author of "The Air Campaign: Planning for Combat" (republished by Brassey s, Inc. in 1989). Presenting both the positives and negatives of Warden s personality and impact in this objective portrait, Olsen offers a trenchant analysis of his revolutionary ideas and great accomplishments. "

Revealing a pragmatic roadmap used by the greatest business minds, it shows how to perceive reality differently through techniques like The Great Awareness, think differently through approaches like The Great Enabler, and act differently using the greatest force multiplier of all -- The Decryption Key. It simplifies & deconstructs business into understandable truths, and reassembles them into practical guidelines for creative thinking and result-generation. You’ll learn how to address major issues like capital raises, strategy and the customer acceptance riddle, and what it really means to understand the big picture -- with a generous dose of examples and insights from the business elite (including colorful analogies to chess and art). It’s an engaging read that will benefit entrepreneurs & executives wanting to “up” their game, and founders wanting to beat the odds.

One Hundred Hints is the long-awaited sequel to Mark Coton's best selling book Value Betting. In Value Betting, Mark concentrated on outlining his unique insights into how to beat the bookmaker; in this engaging and innovative new book, he tells us how to capitalise on those insights, as well as identifying many of the bad habits which often spoil our betting. One Hundred Hints begins with a look into the mind of the professional gambler, then proceeds to examine all stages of the betting process, from preparing selections and assessing value, to the vital matter of accurate and consistent staking. The Hints are interspersed with excerpts from Mark's betting diary kept during the 1993 Flat Season, and with many amusing tales from over fifteen years of serious betting, notably the years Mark spent formulating the ground-breaking Pricewise column in the Racing Post. Refreshingly honest, and written in Coton' s easily-accessible style, One Hundred Hints is part-confession, and part-celebration of the maddening business of betting, and must not be missed by anybody who has ever struck a bet in anger, or intends to in future!
