The Best Book on Diana
I found this book to be the best Diana book I have read. I do belive this story. I think Diana and Dodi did care for each other and I think Rene is telling it like he saw it. the book lets you see the personal side of Diana as well as Dodi.the book also tells you what happened the night of the crash. this book is the only book on Diana that I did not get bored with.a great love story.

From a non-economist
I used the book, particularly Eichengreen's chapter on modern perspectives, for a scholarly article I am writing. My field is speech communication rather than economics, and it seemed like a reasonably coherent book to me.

Stiring the pot of religion
I have a friend who likes to "stir the pot". If there is a controversial side to an issue, he'll take it. If there are questions to be asked or alternate points of view to consider, he'll ask them and find them. He's something of an instigator, though to those he's questioning or instigating he's seen as more of a troublemaker. I'm not sure why he can't "just let things be". I don't know why ...

Informative and Practical
I've had arthritis for a long time, so I was happy to find this well-rounded, informative and practical arthritis book. I learned more from this book than I have from all the others I've read - combined. It gives a good overview of all kinds of arthritis, the ways they diagnose it and treatments. It also talks about the drugs used for the disease, their pros and cons. There's also good ...

Rallidae Extraordinaire
This is by far the most comprehensive text dealing with the rails and relatives. Contains excellent biological, reproductive and ecological information. The distribution maps are somewhat general but probably intentionally so. The color plates are descriptive and accurate. Even includes the most rare and extinct species. An asset for the wetlands ecologists and Gruiformes specialists.
Matrix of Meanings, A: Finding God in Pop Culture (Engaging Culture)

Flipping the Script
(Note: This review not only attempts to review the book, but also engage some previous reviews.) What Detweiler and Taylor have done here is what Detweiler calls "reversing the hermeneutical flow" (a.k.a. "flip the script", to quote "8 Mile"). In other words, rather than taking the Bible and looking at (a.k.a. criticizing) Pop Culture through what we think the Bible says, they take a thorough ...
