Conocí a Willis en 1998. Fue obvio que él era único. Willis sabe perfectamente quién es y en qué cree. Su enfoque es claro e inquebrantable: la familia, la religión y Copart. Willis construyó Copart a partir de un depósito de chatarra y lo convirtió en una empresa de subastas de 4.5 mil millones de dólares impulsada por la alta tecnología. Esto no fue el resultado de una serie de planes exitosos de 5 años. Willis nunca tuvo un plan a largo plazo. Su objetivo era sobrevivir. Levantarse cada mañana y hacer lo mejor que pudiera. A esa tarea le sumó ciertas habilidades naturales: la habilidad de observar continuamente, pensar en lo que observa, priorizar, delegar, repensar, reexaminar casi todo de forma constante. Además, se siente cómodo tomando decisiones. Su forma de pensar y su capacidad de ser decisivo es el motivo por el que Copart pasó de ser un depósito de chatarra a empresa internacional de subastas de 4.5 mil millones de dólares inspirada en la alta tecnología.

The Gold Standard and the Logic of Naturalism discusses ways of creating value in turn-of-the-century American capitalism. Focusing on such topics as the alienation of property, the invention of masochism, and the battle over free silver, it examines the participation of cultural forms in these phenomena. It imagines a literary history that must at the same time be social, economic, and legal; and it imagines a literature that, to be understood at all, must be understood both as a producer and a product of market capitalism.

Junk food is so delicious. The tastes of candy bars and smells of movie popcorn are almost irresistible. But junk foods have a secret. It's not an accident that we enjoy them so much. Science plays a major role in making and packaging these foods. "Where's the Science Here?" reveals why junk food is more amazing than you ever imagined! "Cobb's deverly conceived new series, Where's the Science Here?, focuses on food chemistry, not nutrition.... Well-digested explanations and low-tech projects reinforce Cobb's reputation for snappy hands-on science writing for children."---Booklist

Problem: Most Americans don't realize the potential gold mine in blue-collar business. By "blue-collar business" I mean a business providing a specialized service requiring a trained employee and manual labor. In my case it is chimney sweeping, but it can range from construction to gardening to plumbing and junk removal. There are literally thousands and thousands of opportunities, but many people don't consider blue-collar work as an option and are missing out as a result... Over 3 million blue-collar and skilled labor jobs went unfilled in America last year! The service industry is wide open in America and this book will open your eyes to a growing opportunity that you probably never thought about. By reading this book you will learn how to: Think bigger - Don't be scared of starting or growing your existing business. Make a decision and then make the decision right. Be a leader - You have to learn to be a leader if you want to have a great business. Leadership is a learned skill and this book can help get you started. Start with a plan and an exit strategy so you can live the life you want without being stuck in your business. So come on America, let's get to work doing the "dirty" jobs and make a whole lot of money while you're at it
