Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

The Complete Guide to Online Investing: Everything You Need to Know Explained Simply

Excellent book for anyone diving into the stock market. Trading terms are explained in clear, easy to understand language. Examples of the many types of stock trades are shown and the book actually walks you step-by-step through how a trade is done. The book is absolutely loaded with clear, easy to understand, pertinent information. What I really liked about the book is the number of websites listed for additional information. Government websites, stock company websites, financial sites, stock tracking sites, needed but not commonly known or easily found websites, the list is phenomenal! Some of this information I have been trying to find for years. You can find the information quickly and easily. I wish I had this book when I first started investing! Very, very clear explanations on how to do online investing, great tips and suggestions on keeping your money safe, the types of retirement vehicles and why it is important to get started young and why not to panic if you are older, non-boring tax information, the difference between after-hours trading and day trading, how to start an investment club, how to chose between a broker and an investment advisor. I highly recommend this book to ALL high school and college students. In fact, I really wish this book would be taught in all high schools. Knowledge is power and Online Investing is the beginning for a powerful, new life.

This book covers everything from A to Z on copyrights, trademarks, and patents. It is very detailed with clear definitions and explanations on how and why you need to copyright/protect your art, whether it’s writing, music, dance, or any artistic expression. There is a fascinating history of how copyright laws came into existence and why they are needed. Matthew L. Cole has written a very handy guide. This book is an excellent resource for writers, artists, business people, and inventors. It provides clear guidelines on how to secure copyrights, trademarks, and patents. It details the nuts and bolts of why you need to protect your intellectual property and how to go about doing it. Every inventor in America needs to read the sections on Patents. There is a clear plan, step-by-step detailing why a patent is needed, the way to secure a patent, what to watch out for, and how to make the process as easy as possible. Examples of finished forms clearly demonstrate how to complete them properly. Cole couldn’t have made it any easier to file patent paperwork! The Complete Guide to Copyrights, Trademarks, and Patents should be on everyone’s resource bookshelf.
