Ibiza Man
In Ibiza Man, Michael Lieberman gathers an array of inventive and unforgettable stories. In this, his second collection, he demonstrates his abilities in precisely distilled, unflinchingly honest studies of human connection and disconnection. From the deliverance of an English working girl's dysfunctional relationship to a spoiled aristocrat by the mysterious Ibiza man; the fate of a trouble female attorney's long lost lover revealed at a lunch with Mike Arnold; a rock star's return to his twentieth high school reunion, including a dance with his most potent past muse; to the punch line, the exclamation point to a well-intentioned, but disastrous family reunion, Lieberman evokes painful and tender truths, poetic, painful, and deeply political. The well-meaning protagonists of Ibiza Man are caught to both disastrous and hilarious effect in the maelstrom of family and social upheaval, life in the modern world, and the intimate connection between the foreign, familiar, and the inescapably human. In Ibiza Man Michael Lieberman delves deep into the heart of modern life in a work that overflows with hilarity, heartache, and irony.

Multivariate Analysis for Strategic Decisions
For more than 25 years Michael Lieberman used his statistical paintbrush to define problems and set in motion the process that links the producers, customers, and end users to the marketer through information. This information is used to identify and define marketing opportunities and problems and improve one's understanding of marketing as a process. When embarking on a strategic decision, it is often best to start at the end: What does the client want in his hand at the end of the process? This volume is a collection of procedures based on statistical methods and inference to solve strategic marketing issues, define choice motives, forecast the optimum price of items, instruct graphically what the marketing problem needs to solve, and discuss thought within the marketing, research, and strategic consulting industries.
Social
Being social is as fundamental to our survival as our ability to navigate the world through vision and reason. In this book, Matthew Lieberman draws on the latest research in the newly emerging field of social cognitive neuroscience to show that social interaction has moulded the evolution of our brains: we are wired to be social.

What It Means to Serve the Public In a vigorous defense of public life, Senator Joseph Lieberman, renowned as one of our most articulate and respected politicians, defines the duty, the honor and the privilege of public life in the face of Americans' perennial cynicism about it. Drawing widely from his own experience as a politician and his pride in public service, Lieberman makes a passionate, hopeful argument for the value of public life -- its place and necessity in our democracy and our need for more Americans to embrace it if we are to sustain our self-government.
