LSAT Study Guide 2015
by Kyle SinghalThis LSAT prep book is different. This book was written with four goals in mind: 1. Have a Plan - This book will give you a plan of action so that you can: a) Know what to work on b) Know how to allocate your limited study time c) Learn the key skills and logical principles that will actually help you improve your LSAT score. 2. Understand the Questions This book will teach you not only what to do on any given LSAT question, but how to recognize what kind of questions you re looking at in the first place. Many study guides ramble at length about 25 types of questions, without really teaching you how to tell the questions apart. Whether your target LSAT score is 155 or 175, understanding what each question is calling for is crucial to improving your performance on the LSAT. 3. Avoid Misleading Test-Taking Strategies This book aims to teach you how to identify common pitfalls and traps on the LSAT without giving you bad advice. Many LSAT prep books give generic test-taking tips like, Avoid any answer with words like always or never. This is wrong As you will learn, there are many questions on the LSAT where extreme language is actually desirable. By learning how to recognize exactly what each question is asking, you will learn what kind of language is appropriate for the answer. Extreme language may be a common pitfall, but so is avoiding extreme language when it is actually the answer 4. Get the Big Picture This LSAT prep book aims to present you with the big picture: how arguments work in day-to-day life.

Launch! Advertising and Promotion in Real Time
by Michael Solomon Lisa Duke Cornell Amit NizanLaunch! is written for advertising and promotions courses taught to students in the business school and journalism & mass communication students. This book is the first of its kind to teach advertising concepts by reverse engineering a real advertising campaign from beginning to end. In April 2007, SS+K, an innovative New York City communications agency, launched the first ever branding campaign for msnbc.com with the tag "A Fuller Spectrum of News." Launch! follows that campaign from initial agency pitch through roll-out of print and media assets to post-campaign analysis. Throughout, it exposes readers to the theory and concepts of advertising and promotion, and the personalities and decisions that drove this campaign. The book takes a rare look "behind the curtain" - even letting you see some of the paths not chosen by the agency and client. Students get a realistic sense of how theory plays out in practice. They get a flavor for the exciting field of advertising. And, they consistently learn the perspectives of both the advertising agency (where many journalism and communications students will work) and the client (where many marketing majors will work). This is a unique book, with a unique perspective, by a unique author team, and you won't find this kind of insight in any other text on the market.
