Our Newest Book: See Writeup Below:

 

Not long ago, I found myself updating another of my books, Taxation Without Representation, originally penned in 2008 about then current domestic, political, and constitutional issues intertwining the public consciousness. Immersed once again in that vortex of all-too-familiar concerns about our government, I felt compelled to add a few paragraphs about the Obama Presidency in light of the transparent failures of the newly coronated Administration.

 

I wrote at length about more areas than I expected and before I realized it, the update extended beyond what I would consider a standard update. I knew then that by virtue of its length and current relevance, this work was not a chapter, it actually constituted a new stand-alone book. I am glad that you have selected this book to join me on this journey to preserve American freedom.

 

In the eyes of Americans across the country, from the blue of the mid-Atlantic to the red of the heartland, Barack Obama is failing. Each passing day erodes his declining and oh-so-determinative poll numbers. Said most simply, the man just doesn’t get it. He likely never will. Barack Obama does not harbor a thought process anything remotely congruent with the collective onsciousness

of those he represents, his constituents: US. More and more people recognize his continual diatribes as those of an automaton, glued to technology for his next thought

 

Not only is he losing on the domestic front with long discredited socialist policies that would shock Woodrow Wilson, but his domestic failures are not even offset by some countervailing strength in military affairs. National defense is likewise weakening. Without a meaningful change in Obama’s direction, his ways, fully enabled by a hard left Congress, will doom the country. And I say this… as an optimist.

 

In his short while as President, he surely has committed more sins than just these. But clearly the sins discussed in this book are the seven deadly sins of Obama. And none can be taken lightly. Read this book to learn how to deal with this grievous sinner.

Another New Book:

Health Information Technology and Electronic Accountability Records can make it happen?

 

This book answers the questions you have been asking to which there have been no answers

 

 

Most Americans are aware of the major battle regarding health insurance and healthcare “reform” that was at its peak in the fall of 2009. Congress was getting ready to spend more than a trillion dollars on a government take-over of healthcare. The purpose of the take-over was, purportedly, to improve the lives of just 17% of the people -- those that the government determined to have no access to healthcare (a determination with which many constituents tend to disagree).

 

What about those 17%? What do you think? Should they be on the public tab forever regardless of their status in life? In order to attain accountability, we must keep track of things. President Bush and President Obama both agree that a database of citizen health records needs to be compiled and it is, indeed, a very good idea. In such as system, there would be records for each citizen in the United States. In this way, it would be much easier to get a full picture

of a patient in any medical provider’s setting. Clearly this helps in all aspects of healthcare.

 

With all the rhetoric about reform, there is little to no talk about accountability. This book not only broaches the subject, it shows that it can be done and how it can be done in a lightly technical but mostly amusing style. Americans need a logical and clear blueprint that defines the terms for organization of online records and discusses the objectionable entities that are positioned to “own” your health data. Let’s keep them forever locked out.

 

I hope you enjoy reading this book and that you will remain vigilant and take the actions necessary to ensure that all the people as individuals, and not the government in groupthink, determine the fate of US healthcare. Not one person whose life is saved would deny the people of the US their just payback once they are well. It just makes good sense. Learn how inside! I wish you the best!”

Sincerely.  Melissa L. Sabol, Editor in Chief

 

Yet, Another New Book:

Just as in 1776, today’s Americans are overtaxed and lacking genuine representation. Brian

Kelly wrote this book because our representatives, both nationally and locally, have abandoned their duties as agents of the people and forgotten our role as fundamental voices in a constitutional democracy.

 

Twenty consecutive years of non-responsive Presidencies, unprotected borders, and a Congress with more blame to go around than accomplishments yields a catastrophic failure of a report card. Kelly illustrates how public servants are so overwhelmed with self interests, special interests, the interests of corporations and the interests of other countries

that they have no time to work for the people. He eviscerates, with cogence and gusto, the veneer of “honor” cloaking some of our nation’s most dishonorable public servants.

 

Something went critically awry between 1776 and now. After depicting the problem, your author unearths a cornucopia of political trickeries aimed at taking our money, including a litany of “creative” taxes imposed against U.S. citizens. He then embarks on a no-holdsbarred safari through some of America’s most crippling domestic problems, fueled by representative negligence, corporate power, and greed. He questions the modern role of Unions. From there, your author explains the nation’s emergent problems of visa abuse, the selling out of American jobs, and the unhealthy impact of illegal foreign nationals on the lives of American citizens. He explores the lack of free and honest elections, recounting recent judicial decisions and the push for fraud-prone voting machines. Despite its grave insights, the book animates at all times a spirit of hope and impetus for change which can help direct all efforts to avoid another “Boston Tea Party.”

 

“I hope you enjoy reading this book and that you will remain vigilant and take the actions necessary to ensure that this experiment in democracy, the United States of America, can continue perservering for centuries upon centuries

 

 

 

Still Yet Another New Book:

We've been busy this year...

 

As you can see on the main site, LGP books are available from both IT Jungle and MC Press

 

Lets Go Publish produces books from various authors including the complete works of   Brian W. Kelly. At the present time, Mr. Kelly's books are our primary focus.  If you have an interest in writing a book for Lets Go Publish!, feel send us a note at info@letsgopublish.com

 

Since 1982, with the introduction of the popular Ballinger / Harper Collins book titled The Personal Computer Buyers Guide, written along with his best friends, Dennis J. Grimes, Brian W. Kelly has written thirty-eight books and many technical articles.  In 2008, Kelly wrote the groundbreaking book titled Taxation Without Representation, which was the first book in the new millenium to compare the acts of our National Legislative Body (Our Honorable Lot) as akin to the colonists plight in the late 1700's which prompted the Boston Tea Party and slogans such as "No Taxation Without Representation!!!."

 

Ironically, because Taxation Without Representation is written by a normal human being, and it is published by a very small publishing house, though it is available at AMAZON.COM as well as IT Jungle and MC Press, and its title, not just a few key words within the book actually is Taxation Without Representation,  subtitled, "Can the U.S. Avoid Another Boston Tea Party?" Google has chosen to not list it.  Google prides itself as being the best search engine in existence, yet, this book is listed on the  IT Jungle and MC Press sites and it even gets hits on AMAZON.COM.  Go ahead and type the keywords, "Taxation Without Representation" into Google and you will see that its small business filter filters out all references to this book.  I'm glad you found it. 

 

By the way, this book provides a full copy of the U.S. Constitution, and the Bill of Rights and other founding dcuments in its appendices.

 

If you want to buy this book or any book, please go to either the IT Jungle or MC Press sites.  Thse are both reputable booksellers and they could use your business lots more than AMAZON.COM.  And, besides, wehn they sell the books for me, unlike the large tariffs we pay to AMAZON for the privilege of them selling our books, we actually make a few bucks from my books from the IT Jungle or MC Press sites.

 

We are working with a new company that is not up yet called www.bookhawkers.com. They will also sell Lets Go Publish! books.  WWW.Booksnippers.com  is being set up as we dialogue to be able to give chapters of books away as well as make book chapters in poular LGP books available for downloading as eBooks and eChapters.

A Combination Tutorial and Lab Book Designed for IBM i RPG & RPGIV based Application Development

 

Finally, there is an affordable RPG and RPGIV tutorial for System i RPG & RPGIV programming. It is much less expensive than other available self-study packages because it was built first to be a lab guide. It is designed to help students learn RPG without going broke.

 

Additionally, this book is designed to be used by Colleges and Universities as an RPG/RPGIV course Lab book for RPG. The book is packaged to be used with an IBM i library designed to make learning as easy as possible. The book also has an optional set of “talking” PowerPoint slide presentations that are based on the popular System i Pocket RPG & RPGIV Guide (text book). These slides can be an effective lecture series when used with or without a Moodle CMS. Besides all that there is a sample syllabus as well as optional quizzesto make the learning environment complete.

 

In addition to the 1-2-3 type tutorial and lab exercises in the tutorial/lab guide, it also provides lecture material that not only helps you learn the language, the material helps you get your labs done right - screens designed, programs compiled, programs executed, and output examined.

 

All IBM i Lab objects are included in the downloadable material standard with this book package. The Labs are well done and well documented and they are built so that you can complete them successfully by visualizing the solution. Since nobody likes to key programs from scratch, the lab exercises are already typed with enough important material redacted to provide painless learning. You learn programming rather than typing. The capstone lab is almost 500 statements of RPGIV learning. By the time you finish the last lab, you will not be a better typist but you will have learned RPG / RPGIV.

 

There are many RPG books and expensive self studies but there has never been an RPG tutorial/lab guide as affordable and as well-done as this. You won’t want to put down this comprehensive guide to learning IBM i RPG/RPGIV now that you’ve got your hands on it. Considering the age of RPG, this book is almost 50 years overdue. In today’s IT landscape, most IBM i System i shops support both RPG and ILE RPG. Besides its easy-to read down-home writing style, the major benefit of this book is that it is built to be a learning tool and thus it can help anyone whose mission it is to educate/train new RPG & ILERPG (RPGIV) programmers. Programmers are responsible for maintaining andextending the RPG programs that run businesses across the world.

Programming in RPG helps get business applications running sooner. Using this tutorial/lab guide help students, neophyte and novices learn the language sooner. For those with a non-IBM i IT background, this book has enough exercises to help you qualify for an entry level position upon faithful

completion.

 

It’s in there...

Is the “Best Deal In Town,” the best deal?

The All-Everything Operating System

Book Description:
Sometimes the best deal in town is a bona fide steal and you’re the one robbed. Any “low cost” server that fails more often than its equally low business value would justify its worth no more than a bushel of pencils. The deceptive allure of low pricing has played bandit in more than a few episodes of server pillaging.

Fortunately, cost is no longer the paramount factor, now displaced by business value and resiliency. Small and large businesses alike are fed up with their systems’ chronic unavailability. There no longer exists the luxury of indulging the whims and caprices of every unresponsive system or lingering down situation. Resiliency is the new paradigm. The new business world operates in an exponentially more real time fashion. Transactions and information flow with the currents of broadband. Transactions execute immediately. Tolerance for downtime has dissipated. What can a business, of any size, use to stay afloat? The all-everything operating system, IBM i, is the best answer, short of a pencil. Trust the Casinos, who currently use IBM i. Any doubts of their pressing need for systems reliability?

In IBM i, the company has made the finest, most architecturally elegant, most usable, most productive, most affordable, and least frustrating operating system of all time. Its IBM Power System, driven by IBM i, is a “mainframe for the masses” because it can be as large and big as a mainframe but it also fits just as effectively into a small business. It’s highly secure, productive, granular, and affordable and eschews the operational impediments that would diminish revenue, regulatory compliance, and corporate reputation. The all-everything operating system is designed to resist viruses and run smoothly at all times. Numerous customer testimonials aver that and much more.

This book walks you through the story of this unique operating system from its inception until today. It presents its underlying superiority, its rapid customer acceptance, development history, and its probable future. Inside, its unique architecture and interactions are discussed in easily accessible layman’s terms. Upon finishing this book, you will understand why IBM is proud to have built the finest operating system in the universe and why it deserves the name, “all-everything” operating system. Its manifold improvements and value implications are condensed here in a single collection of pages.

With a Foreword by Dr. Frank G. Soltis, IBM i Chief Scientist

Lets Go Publish! is proud to introduce a new book by Brian W. Kelly "Taxation Without Representation" that is intended for general audiences, most of whom are over-taxed and under-represented.

Better yet, it may give you that gentle push that you need to take the challenge to represent the people in your city, state, or district. Wouldn't it be nice to have some honest people like yourself as the leaders of the various governments of the United States of America?  Short of your running for office, Kelly offers a number of suggestions for how, "We The People" can get this democracy rolling forward on our behalf, once again.
