Nutripoints: Healthy Eating Made Simple!1 review
Dr. Roy E. Vartabedian and Kathy Matthews
Designs for Wellness Press, 2005
Still the best "no-fad" system!
Nutripoints remains my favorite book on healthy eating. Nutripoints is a "no-fad" system based on straight science and facts. Using a proprietary grading system, foods are assigned a numerical score based on nutritional qualities, taking into account both positive and negative factors. The higher the Nutripoint score, the better the food choice. Unlike some nutritional programs, where you are ...

Land and Power in Hawaii: The Democratic Years1 review
George Cooper, Gavan Daws
University of Hawaii Press, 1990
The Bottom Line of Influence Here In the Land of Aloha
Cooper and Daws thoroughly document the shifts in land and power of the last century. For anyone living here (especially on Oahu) wondering how our islands became this way developmentally, this book is a must read. Personally, living in Salt Lake and a good portion of my life in Makakilo, this book gave excellent information as to who the players were (many estates still with tremendous clout ...

The American Democrat: Revised Edition (Penguin Classics)5 reviews
James Fenimore Cooper
Penguin Classics, 1989
Masterpiece about basics of American social system.
Cooper was an acute commentator on the strengths and weaknesses of American society as it developed during the first half of the 19th century. Like a number of other observers Cooper came to be fearful that a society built upon the ideas of self-government, along with legal equality ("democracy" in the social sense), unless it is strongly bound by law and custom and unless such fundamentals as ...

The Origin of Financial Crises: Central Banks, Credit Bubbles and the Efficient Market Fallacy4 reviews
George Cooper
Harriman House, 2008
4.5 stars-Cooper has connected all of the dots except one-he missed Keynes
Cooper has written a book that currently must be judged to be superior to any other book written on the Subprime mortgage backed bond catastrope that has led the American Treasury Secretary Paulson to advocate the government purchase of about 1 trillion dollars of bank and investment bank assets about which no one has the slightest idea of what their true worth is.
Cooper simply and ...

The Mammoth Book of Fantasy1 review
Running Press, 2001
Good collection of diverse stories
Fantasy collections tend to be like the genre itself: a few gems among the dross. This collection is a refreshing exception, with many good stories and only a few that I didn't enjoy. Mike Ashley displays a great deal of knowledge about the genre and about what makes a good fantasy story. "Mammoth Book" kicks off with an intriguing story by Theodore R. Cogswell, "The Wall Around the World," a ...

Poison Widows: A True Story of Witchcraft, Arsenic, and Murder 2 reviews
George Cooper
St Martins Pr, 1999
Fantastic, interesting story of murder in the 1930's
Really interesting story. Good colorful, funny characters. I learned a lot about life in the Italian community of Philadelphia in the 1930's. I especially enjoyed the funny "voodoo" that the killers practiced and victims believed in. Very entertaining. I can't believe they got away with so many murders before they were caught. A good "gang that couldn't shoot straight" type tale. And ...

LOST LOVE: A True Story of Passion, Murder, and Justice in Old New York1 review
George Cooper
Pantheon, 1994
Shows how much things have and haven't changed
After the murder has been committed, the author spends time giving us the backgrounds of the three principle characters. Even if you aren't a history fan, don't skip these chapters because they'll help you understand the account of the actual trial. This is the story of a talented and intelligent woman who finds both the courage to leave and divorce her abusive alcoholic husband and to fall ...
