Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Second printing [stated]. 24 cm. xix, [1], 286, [14] pages. DJ front flap price clipped Name in ink on fep. Michael S. Hyatt is an American author, podcaster, blogger, speaker, and the former chairman and CEO of Thomas Nelson. He has written several books about leadership, planning, and goal setting. Hyatt's publishing career began at Word Publishing while a student at Baylor University where he graduated with a degree in philosophy. He started his own publishing company, Wolgemuth & Hyatt, with Robert Wolgemuth in 1986. In 1992, Word Publishing acquired Wolgemuth & Hyatt. He was a literary agent from 1992 until 1998, after which he joined Thomas Nelson. During this period, he wrote several books about the Year 2000 problem, including the fictional Y2K: The Day the World Shut Down as well as non-fiction books The Millennium Bug: How to Survive the Coming Chaos and The Y2K Personal Survival Guide. Hyatt was promoted to president and COO of Thomas Nelson in February 2004 and was made CEO in August 2005. Hyatt also wrote several more books including Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World, a New York Times Best Seller, and two Wall Street Journal Best Sellers: Living Forward and Your Best Year Ever. It is difficult, two decades later, to appreciate the several years of concern, apprehension, and accelerated investment in upgrading hardware and software to avoid the undesirable outcomes (that is catastrophes) that a global breakdown of computing was feared would bring. How will you protect yourself and your family from the coming chaos as critical computer systems crash around the world? Michael Hyatt explains the problems and shows you how to protect yourself from the worst. But, Hyatt warns, there is very little time to get ready. Start now and avoid regrets later. Derived from a review posted at the time on Amazon: This account outlines an ominous view of how computer systems will be able to deal with the year 2000 problem. Power grids go dark, 911 call centers descend into chaos, Visa cards die, and the industrialized world is reduced to hunting and gathering in Hyatt's millennium nightmare. With lots of quotes popping out from the pages and plenty of bulleted lists, The Millennium Bug is written in typical manager-book style. It's heavy with case studies, news items, and endnote references to the author's sources. Hyatt's purpose is to alert technology decision-makers to a plausible worst-case Y2K scenario and to motivate them to do something about it. The author presents a range of possible developments, from mere annoyance with consumer services to widespread starvation as a result of infrastructure breakdown. Hyatt also foresees a plague of lawsuits filed by shareholders, the families of deceased patients, and swarms of other people harmed by Y2K failures. Hyatt's advice: move to a small town with a volunteer fire department, stockpile food, secure access to a reliable source of fresh water, and buy a gun and ammunition for fending off looters. The winter of 1999-2000 will be a hard one, Hyatt predicts, and the crisis may last a long time indeed--have reading material on hand. --David Wall.…
