Furniture Makers Exploring Digital Technologies (Furniture Studio series)

1 review

The Furniture Society, 2005

Not to be judged by its cover...
I really looked forward to this book. Even ordered it before it was released. But, now that I've received it, I'm more then a bit disappointed. The problem is this: The title of the book, the cover and the well done introduction all are focused on how furniture makers are utilizing digital technologies in their work. It got me interested. Seems reasonable to expect the content to be there, ...

Wonderful for Early Readers
My son listens to these over and over with or without the book. He enjoys the narrators and has almost memorized the books.

Mostly I walk." ?from All the King's Horses Michèle Bernstein's novel, All the King?s Horses (1960), is one of the odder and more elusive, entertaining, and revealing ...

Rachel Harrison: If I Did It
John Kelsey, Rachel Harrison

JRP|Ringier, 2008

Gracing the cover jacket of Rachel Harrison's highly anticipated second monograph is an informal monument to the man who holds the Americas' namesake. The only hint to this memorial for the 15th century Italian explorer, Amerigo Vespucci, is an apple resting on an outcropping of neon-green cement; of course the fact that the apple is not only artificial but has a bite taken out of it suggests otherwise to the discovery of these "Edenic" ...

The Twofish Encryption Algorithm: A 128-Bit Block Cipher

5 reviews
Bruce Schneier, John Kelsey, ...

Wiley, 1999

fascinating to a limited audience
Bruce Schneier is the Yoda of crpytography and information security, if you've heard him there's no need to ask anyone else. This book would probably only appeal to the genuinely avid crypto fan, its Greek to anyone else. It is a thorough exposition of the making of the Twofish cypher, the latest attempt to secure information as absolutely as possible. You must be well versed in cryptography ...

John Clare Eman Poet Lib #27 (Everyman Poetry)

1 review
Kelsey Thornton

Everyman Paperbacks, 1997

Beautiful, glorious
Clare is a true poet, and strangely neglected currently it seems. Really he is one of the essential poets of the wonderful romantic era which includes Wordsworth, Shelley, Blake, Coleridge, and Keats. Why is this just about the only book of his work being published? I think you're lucky to find this one, and you can find many poems of his on the web to see yourself. Cheers

Basements: How to : Real People-Real Projects (Hometime Series)

John Kelsey, Pamela S. Price, ...

Hometime, 1999

Real People-Real Projects (Hometime Series)
I'd rate this book in the middle of the scale simply because it didn't really give me what I wanted (but may be fine for others). I'm already well versed in do-it-yourself projects so I don't need baby stepping through basic electrical, drywall etc. What I was really looking for was tangible information on both the interior design aspects of a basement (lighting consideration, codes etc) and ...

Tool Making for Woodworkers

2 reviews
Ray Larsen

Cambium Pr, 1996

Excellent introduction
If this book were bigger with more projects than I'd heartily give it 5 stars. As it is, the projects are interesting, and I feel that there is enough information for me to start making tools. Some areas are lacking, but the bibliography at the end more than made up for the void. I knew next to nothing about blacksmithing before and now I feel I can start making tools. Actually I've ...

Christian Spirituality and Thinking for the Layman
It is an excellent book to search the roots of our western world's religious heritage. The spiritual reality is presented as a reality, even for old fashioned Christianity in the world of the esoteric. The book reads very well, for which a college degree is not needed.
