Brandy | 2 comments Hello! I'm new to the forums and hope I'm posting this in the right place...

I noticed that the book Caring Beyond the Margins is listed as Douglas Jacoby's, but Doug actually only wrote the foreward. The author is Guy Hammond. Both are listed, but Doug is listed first and comes up as the primary author when you're looking the book up.

I'm not sure whether the foreward writer is supposed to get a credit or not (as an example, Stephen Covey has no credit for The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership: Follow Them and People Will Follow You). Can we at least swap the order to make sure Guy gets proper credit?

Brandy | 2 comments Thanks! Oh, and on the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, you pointed out something interesting. Looks like Ziglar wrote the foreword in the original, but Covey wrote a new one for the 10 year anniversary version (which is the one I read).

Scott | 8669 comments Ah, I see that now. Added Covey to the newer editions that didn't have it.
