Lost Indianapolis (IN) (Images of America)

6 reviews
John McDonald

Arcadia Publishing, 2002

Wonderful book...from ex-Hoosier
I grew up in Indianapolis and really enjoyed reading about all of the things that have gone away since I was a little kid. I used to love Burger Chef, and the downtown Ayres store. I remember the Riverside Amusement Park sitting closed there for years when we would pass it going out to the Speedway. The author also has a webpage called "Lost Indiana" which talks about some of the Lost Indy ...

The Sum of All Fears Part 2 of 2

Tom Clancy

Books on Tape, Incorporated, 1991

My most unusual review
I picked up the hard copy edition which was more than two inches thick containing 798 pages and wondered if I really wanted to read such a large book. Since I had read seven of Clancy's books and "Search for Red October" was one of my favorite movies, I decided to give it a try. Soon after starting the book, I knew it was going to be a thriller that I would like but realized that there was ...

Daily Life in Hitler's Germany

3 reviews
John McDonald, Matthew S. Seligmann, ...

Thomas Dunne Books, 2004

The Picture of Evil
I must agree with with other two reviews of this book about the rather poor text. While it does occasionally bring up an interesting point, a number of its arguments are discredited by a large number of contrasting studies. That said, what is important are the photographs. Here is the face of Nazi Germany. One of the most frightening pictures was of the young men, students and SA, burning ...

The Message of a Master

19 reviews
John McDonald

New World Library, 1993

The Truth
If the process of manifestation suggested in this book were to be sincerely followed, you can manifest your own reality. As someone who has read innumerable 'secret of success ' books , I hold very high regard for this book because I have had practical demonstrations of its truths. The one point that the master does not dwell upon is while visualizing the desired situation , one has to ...

Strategy in Poker, Business & War

6 reviews
John McDonald

W. W. Norton & Company, 1996

Excellent Strategy Primer
This book is really a study of games - specifically strategical games such as poker. Strategical games are those where information is imperfect. The author uses poker as a model for describing strategy in business, war, and politics - Three of life's other strategical games. He correctly deduces that the optimal strategy in poker is not to have one - that is, to vary unpredictably. Poker playing ...

Seismic Physical Modeling (Geophysics Reprint, No 15)
Daniel A. Ebrom

Society Of Exploration Geophysicists, 1994

For more than half a century, interpreters, researchers, and teachers have used physical model data to better understand and communicate the behavior of seismic waves. Seismic interpreters faced with ambiguities in data analysis have long struggled with the dilemma of either puzzling through the real seismic data or looking at computer-generated synthetic data. Physical model data lie at an intermediate position between these two extremes. The ...
