Outstanding!
A must-read for anyone with any semblance of intellect. The poetry of Jennifer Schalliol, in particular, simply blows one's mind, among other things. How could such great creativity be issuing from such a small person? It is the eternal question, as this splendid poetry will live eternally in the pages of Salt and in the hearts of readers like us.

If you read it, a cliche wil vanish
Somewhere along the road the phrase 'if you build it, they will come' has come to signify a sort of brainless reassurance. In fact, the message of the book is that if you build something with a clarity of vision and purity of heart, there will be results worthy of your effort. Reading this beautiful book about baseball (and make no mistake, it's really about baseball)will liberate you from the ...

Genre-bender
In this remarkable book, Cambridge based Australian poet John Kinsella highlights what genre is and how genre works. Composed as one continuous, unbroken paragraph, the text suddenly switches gear, sometimes in mid-sentence, from science fiction to memoir, from art review to personal correspondance. Even the assesor's report to the publisher about this book turns up in the book. The conceit ...

Fine Irish historical geneology
Wonderful handsome volume of early and medieval Irish history and genealogy focusing on Leinster and the Clan Kinsella. Brian Boru and the later Norman invasion of Ireland and Dermot macMurrough are looked at carefully. Not another quick knockoff to make a quick buck this beautiful book had a lot of care in the book production and the footnoted research. This is for the hardcover edition.

A collection of Tennyson's best
This is one of the best collections of Tennyson's poems I have ever read. Tennyson's wonderful poems are artfully compiled into this book. I would recommend it to anyone who loves Tennyson's poetry or just wants to see what its all about.

Handbook for Implementing an ISO 14001 Environmental
It is often the curse of wise, visionary ideas: When they're new and haven't yet gained widespread use or brand-name familiarity they somehow seem more complicated--and difficult to implement--than in fact they are. This "appearance" of complexity keeps well-meaning people or companies from moving ahead--and so progress stalls. For those directly involved, and for the rest of us. Such is the ...
Peripheral Light: Selected and New Poems

Postmodern pastoral
Not many books of poetry are enacted as vividly in the cinema of the mind as John Kinsella's "Peripheral Light." Nearly 150 pages of poems, arranged without any overt sense of chronology or categorization into "new" and "selected," spool out a brocade of violence, labor, danger, natural presences, hardship, and beauty in (primarily) rural Australia. Poems set later in the book also make jagged ...

Advances in Food and Nutrition Research
Academic Press
, 1992
Intended for researchers and graduate students in food science and nutrition. This volume includes updates on two major nutrient classes, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and proteins. Comparison of the beneficial effects of both the N-6 PUFAs (known to affect plasma cholesterol) and N-3 (from fish oils and seafoods) indicates that these exert different physiological effects. The digestibility of proteins is discussed and is an active ...

Jack of all trades, master of none !
I so much wanted to love the poetry written by C K Stead, hey I'm a kiwi and we've got to stick together ... OK so you know what's coming next ... a endless rendition of mindless rhetoric. So how can I sum up his poetry ... blah, blah blah, so what, blah blah blah. To me poetry has to evoke feelings within, whether they are calm or disturbing, yes he can write a story and yes he is well versed, ...
