A Stellar Book for A Stellar Collection
While most authors of Tibetan art books confine themselves to the religious art of Tibet, there is another, fantastic, aspect of Tibetan material culture--the luxury goods for the clergy and nobility. Through the good fortune of having been selected as the recipient of a massive collection formed in the early part of the 20th century and augmented by various gifts and purchases over the ...

A manual my consulting business should've come with
Over the years of working in the business consulting field, I have accumulated a huge library of book on sales, marketing, and business management. Most of them cover a very narrow aspect of running a small business and at many are a tad too theoretical. Dan's book stands out as a comprehensive, very practical business manual. You can read it from any chapter. I find myself going back and ...

Not Only for Curators!
This is a great compendium of writings by some of the most prominent independent or affiliated curators working internationally today. Each was asked ten questions about curating and each responded in a different and fascinating way. This is an interesting book for all those interested in the relationship between the artist and the display of their work. It illuminates what a modern curator ...
The Baseball Almanac: Big Bodacious Book of Baseball

Best Baseball Book I've ever read...
The Baseball Almanac is more a bathroom book than a coffee-table volume. You can leave it on top of the porcelain, pick it up, read it backwards, and still get an enormous charge out of it. It was filled with fascinating sidebars and anecdotes and even though I've read just about everything, I kept saying "Gee, I didn't know that!" on almost every page. My favorite parts of the book concerned ...

Harrison's is essential
I have used Harrisons since the eighties. I am a Clinical Psychologist dealing with patients who often have multiple medical problems. Harrison's is a complete solution to getting up to the date medical information, not only the book and CD but also the Website. It is expensive, but if you only ever buy one medical text, this has to be the one.

Classic Humor
This book brought me back to my childhood, reliving the pranks my brothers and I indulged in. The 'rating' scale used to determine degrees of difficulty, embarrassment and annoyance levels for each act were great. Beware of the Flour Shower!

who needs a review?
This is Harrison's textbook of medicine, known , read and loved the world over. Who really needs an introduction to this Medical Bible? Harrison's is probably the best medical reference for medical professionals there is. As expected, the 14th edition of this authoritative reference lives up to its name. This book is not meant to be used as a textbook by medical students (or anyone for that ...

For the lay person---NOT!!!
There is a reason why med students learn anatomy, histology,embryology, physiology,and biochemistry before picking up Harrison's, so I snicker when non-MD's think they can read and understand ( with the help of Taber's medical dictionary, which by the way is used by nurses, physicians in training use Dorland's) a medical textbook, especially one like Harrison's.( What is especially humorous is ...

Essential reading for any percussionist
I just received this book a couple of days ago, and I'm telling everyone I know about how incredible it is (whether they play music or not). This is essentially a cookbook containing tons of patterns and rhythms in 4, 6, and 8 beat phrases. Mr. Martin uses an ingenious notation system that is understandable even to people with no musical background, and the claves are presented layer by layer; ...

"I Love Our Earth" is an amazing little book
Dan Lipow's visually impressive photography combines nicely to illustrate and showcase the informed and informative text co-authored by Bill Martin Jr. and Michael Sampson in "I Love Our Earth", a 32-page introductory survey to the wonderful sights, sounds and colors of the earth for children ages 3 to 6. From deep oceans, blue skies, and blowing winds, to the snows of winter, to the sunlight of ...

Very Enjoyable and Somewhat Original
This was originally published as Night Visions 5, a horror anthology series. It's got some neat stories. It's interesting to see people so critical of a work that was never meant to compete with Hemingway. These stories are clever and fun and, as they are supposed to, entertain. I recommend the book as an interesting diversion...unless you're looking for Hemingway!

WhereDoAllTheseIdiotsFeelTheNeedToBeTheFirstToPostAReviewWithoutKnowingAnything
I agree with Harry - I don't know why everyone feels the need to post reviews before they actually read/use the products. This definately goes to all the losers who posted reviews on the latest Harry Potter book seconds after it came out. Or spoiled it by insisting on reviewing right after they finished it. I really don't care if you lined up for a two hours at midnight and then read it cover ...

Amazing
Great work of new american plays - one of the best Humana Festivals I have read. The cast of actors, directors, designers, and fight choreographers are top notch and excellent resource of up and coming people to see on stage. The performances of these plays only helped to illuminate the writing - reading the words is just as great as seeing the productions - Actors Theatre of Louisville's ...
Vertigo: The Making of a Hitchcock Classic

CLASSIC
"Vertigo" is not only my favorite Hitchcock film; it is also one of my top five favorite films of all time. It is a film that, at first viewing, seems merely like a slightly irregular, well-made, not quite formula murder mystery. You go away from the movie with doubts in your mind (questions keep pricking you over and over) and then the "Vertigo" vertigo starts: How did they do it? How did ...

A Great First Novel
One day it dawned on me that I had to leave and that I had to do it quickly because they knew where I was and how to find me. I don't know how I knew, but it didn't matter. This is the day that paranoid schizophrenic and mental asylum escapee Rich Jones heads to San Francisco and starts his new life as alternative newspaper reporter, Mitch James. Told in a stream of conscious-style of ...

Good, Bad and ugly? No, just the seventh highest scorer in Pro Basketball Tellin' it like it was, his way
Daniel Paul Issel is one of the top 50 players in Pro Basketball history. He was with the Denver Nuggets since 1975 until he resigned in 2002. He couldn't stand the losing. Dan was a memeber of Kentucky Coach Adolph Rupp's 'Runts', who won the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship team in 1967. Issel played 1971-86. He played F on the greatest Pro team ever, the Hubie Brown Coached 1974-75 ...
