MINING For Gold by Michael A. Podolinsky is certainly NOT a book written to teach gold miners the right way to dig, pan, slush or whatever gold miners tend to do to get at the precious ore.
Instead, this book (published by Pearson Prentice-Hall) is really for those who seek easy and ready answers in their quest to facilitate meetings or training sessions successfully, such as what to avoid and what must be done to make their events more successful, in order to get their teams to be more productive and their company to perhaps be more profitable.
