Tick... Tick... Tick...: The Long Life & Turbulent Times of 60 Minutes

8 reviews
David Blum

HarperCollins,, 2004

Entertaining Look at People, Stories, Behavior and Ethics
60 Minutes is one of those television icons that all of us know something about. My daughter has a list of "The 50 Greatest TV Shows Ever!" on her bulletin board and it lists 60 Minutes in 6th place. But how many of us have watched every broadcast? Probably no one saw them all but those who worked for the show from the beginning. Certainly, if you're under a certain age, you haven't ...

David Blum

University of California Press, 1980

An approachable text on interpetation from a master musician
David Blum writes an insightful and rewarding text based on notes taken from rehearsals, master classes, and personal conversations with Pablo Casals. According to Blum, the idea for the book came from Antony Hopkins who encouraged him to take his notes and memories and document them so that other musicians could benefit from Casals' musicianship. The book provides a study of the "laws of ...

Quintet: Five Journeys Toward Musical Fulfillment
David Blum

Cornell University Press, 1999

Of all the arts, music must be the most elusive to capture in words. The writer trying to pin down how a particular work--no matter how familiar--casts its spell over listeners grapples to reach a seemingly quixotic goal. And, particularly when faced with the unique alchemy of personality and technique that goes into performance, too often the result is either distressingly abstract, absurdly reductive, or glib and empty-headed puffery that ...

Overload: Attention Deficit Disorder and the Addictive Brain

3 reviews
David K. Miller, Kenneth Blum

Andrews Mcmeel Pub, 1996

A Must Read For All Substance Abuse & ADHD Treating Clinicia
I have found an either/or philosophy amongst my colleagues regarding the treatment of these disorders. While Substance Abuse Clinicians treat symptoms of ADHD as Relapse Symptoms AND ADHD Clinicians treat the ADHD assuming the substance abuse problem will automatically disappear, this book shows why those illusions are not only inacurate but dangerous treatment approaches. This book bridges ...

Revelation (Shepherd's Notes)

2 reviews
Edwin Blum

B&H Publishing Group, 1999

A readable commentary for the young Christian.
This commentary is aimed for the young Christian and the group study leader. It is well designed and easy to navigate. It is also reasonably detailed and readable. Generally it gives the various alternative interpretations for difficult texts, including the rapture and millennium. The text of Revelation is in bold, and the comments are on one or two verses at a time, with the fragment of text ...

Harold P. Blum, Morris Eagle, ...

New York Review of Books, 1995

Freudians Release Their Pent Up Hostility
Frederick Crews really knows how to tap that deep reservoir of hostility found in modern Freudian psychoanalysts. In 1993 and 1994 FC wrote two essays in the New York Review of Books debunking Freud in the first, and tearing to shreds the recovered memory movement in the second. These two essays and the letters in response to them have been put into the book The Memory Wars. As someone trained ...

Flash in the Pan: Life and Death of an American Restaurant

1 review
David Blum

Simon & Schuster, 1992

underrated classic
I first heard about this book from the introduction to "Kitchen Confidential," where the author Anthony Bourdain compared it to Orwell's "Down and Out in Paris and London." He was right. It's hard to find but worth the wait. This story of "The Falls," a hip New York City hangout in the early 1990's, is a wonderful portrait of the backstage world of restaurants -- the fish-crazy chef, the owner ...

PDQ Statics: Great overview!
If you like to understand where each part of statistics fit in with other parts, start with this book. This is a Macro view of statistical analysis, not a nuts and bolts one. Nevertheless, one needs to understand the major distinctions of the categories and subcategories of statistical analysis, and this book does a wonderful job at it. Recommend it for anyone who cares about the logic of ...

David Blum

Harper Paperbacks, 2005

An insider's view of the most successful show in the history of TV, 60 Minutes. The most popular TV show in America isn't American Idol, and it's not Survivor. Month in, month out, the most–watched program in America is 60 Minutes, drawing a staggering 25 million viewers in an average week. For its entire 34–year history, 60 Minutes was the brainchild (and personal fiefdom) of Don Hewitt, the take–no–prisoners ...
