Absolutely great!
There's almost nothing to complain about in this set of books - the print quality is great, the accompanying artwork good, the commentary insightful and useful! I give this five stars, and yet I have some desires... Color!! The Sunday funnies were great because they were longer and had color! Without color, they are just long daily strips. Reprint the color, guys, at least, if you can. ...

Joel Whitburn's Billboard Top Pop Singles 1955-2006 (11th Edition)
I just updated this replacement hardcover book from my earlier version of 1955-1986. It's my reference bible for songs and artists. I have a large collection of 45 rpm's (mostly from the 1950s and 1960s) and the only way I can inventory them is by referring to this book. I'm also purchasing more current MP3 songs online on Amazon.com of course. The book also lists song titles when I can't ...

The best!
This has to be one of the most comprehensive books on Yamaha racing. A few errors have been found in the book, but for the most part it is very well researched and chocked full of great pictures of some of the best riders in the sport. Past, Present and future. If you are into two-strokes, there is no better book.

Neo-Avantgarde and Culture Industry: Essays on European and American Art from 1955 to 1975 (October Books)
Benjamin H. D. Buchloh

The MIT Press, 2003

Named one of The Art Book's Best Books of the Decade (March 2003). Some critics view the postwar avant-garde as the empty recycling of forms and strategies from the first two decades of the twentieth century. Others view it, more positively, as a new articulation of the specific conditions of cultural production in the postwar period. Benjamin Buchloh, one of the most insightful art critics and theoreticians of recent decades, argues for a ...

get this, think about the rest later
when this book used to be out of print, legions of ambitous tap dancers - including myself - were searching used-book stores across the country to find a copy. i know some who ended up copying every single page in the lincoln center library. the reason is very simple: there is no other book on the subject that even comes close to gathering this much information on the history of tap dancing. even ...

Mr. Sleet's work is enlightening. . .we reflect and remember
Mr. Sleet was a very special person whose very life defined the term humanitarian. He always had time to listen, and no matter how busy, he was there to help and encourage. He wanted people to know what it meant to be black in America. Many thousands of untitled black folks walked undaunted, hand-and-hand with pain & triumph in the civil rights movement. Mr. Sleet was on the front lines ...

Great for learning and teaching.
I teach a course at a local community college and use this book as my text. The book is relatively cheap, especially for college books, and very well written. It describes some of our most influential Supreme Court cases in the past half century. The style that it is written in is ideal for learning and keeping the reader interested. First it gives a short one page synopsis of the case that ...

300- King of the MOPARS.
Having always admired the mighty HEMI motor and now awaiting delivery of a new 300C SRT-8 it was a terrific book to read in depth from the origins of the 300 series to the current model 300C with plenty of specifications, performance details and options available at the time. I did not realise how few were actually built and to continue as long as they did simply would not happen today.Plenty of ...
