Published in 2001: Abbreviations, nicknames, jargon, and other short forms save time, space, and effort - provided they are understood. Thousands of new and potentially confusing terms become part of the international vocabulary each year, while our communications are relayed to one another with increasing speed. PDAs link to PCs. The Net has grown into data central, shopping mall, and grocery store all rolled into one. E-mail is faster than snail mail, cell phones are faster yet - and it is all done 24/7. Longtime and widespread use of certain abbreviations, such as R.S.V.P., has made them better understood standing alone than spelled out. Certainly we are more comfortable saying DNA than deoxyribonucleic acid - but how many people today really remember what the initials stand for? The Abbreviations Dictionary, Tenth Edition gives you this and other information from Airlines of the World to the Zodiacal Signs.

The Leadership Acronym is based on leadership abilities. On how a leader can gain and use influence to win over the hearts of people and to get desired things done. Anyone who have ever led an organisation, a group of people or a department has struggledat the beginningas a leader. Not because they lack ideas or have wrong motives, but because they lack the unique leadership ingredient. It takes influence for any leader to successfully lead. Without influence, leadership will be based on power and positionwhere the leader will abuse and assault people in order to carry out instructions. Leadership is not meant for a selected few. There is no one born with the wisdom of leadership. All successful leaders learn to lead.

Author APG (Anthony Paul Gipson) loves acronyms. His book Acronyms Galore: The ABCs – A History of Topics with Timely Information and Funny Stories considers many aspects of life, spanning sports to TV shows, modern culture to health. The subjects are varied and timely, and project hilarious moments. Stories include: • Assets, WA (Wealth Accumulation) • Sports, QFB (Questionable Fan Behavior) • Housing, GBC (Ghost Buster Closet ) “Throughout this book, I discuss many acronyms regarding the area of health. Some include TBB (The Big B: Blessed), LTYB (Listening To Your Body),and TWC (The Wellness Community). When reading about these acronyms, a reader will learn more about the emotional, physical, and personal challenges I experienced regarding my health.” The author states he has “used acronyms a great part of my life.” He continues, “The purpose of this book is to have readers think, laugh, and take control of their lives.” “I want anyone who has experienced a medical setback, like me, to feel reassured that no matter what the diagnosis, treatment, and recovery, we must continue to have the hope, the strength, and the desire to continue to live and enjoy life. Do not let mental or, even more so, physical scars from a surgery and/or treatment continue to make you feel ashamed, alone, and unworthy to live your life. You must decide with whom you want to share your personal triumphs.”
