Lots of applications for Christians in business
I found this book just by searching on the title after reading a paper that a friend in India wrote on kingdom business. I have been hungry to learn what it means for me as an entrepreneur to have a Matt 6:33 'his kingdom first' mentality in running a for profit venture. I devoured this book and found it to be one of the most helpful I've seen yet, even though a primary focus of the book is ...

Kim Williams, Rob Mies, ...

Little, Brown and Company, 2002

Excellent Bat Book!
Last Christmas I got a Bat Detector (from Bat Conservation International). The instructions with it were very poor so I asked a local naturalist if she knew of any good bat books and specifically any that would indicate what frequency to tune the bat detector in to for our local bats. She recommended this book and its terrific! There's a short section up front that talks about bats and how they ...

The Villas of Palladio

5 reviews
Giovanni Giaconi, Kim Williams

Princeton Architectural Press, 2003

The best drawings of Palladio's Villas
Finally a beautiful book about Palladio's architecture that deals only with drawings and not photographs. I find this book extremely interesting and absolutely beautifully produced. The format, the paper and the quality of the reproductions give the reader a beautiful chance to enjoy and admire the linear proportions and symmetry of Palladio's architecture. More interesting is the fact that ...

If you can buy only one book on .NET remoting, this is it
By now I have read numerous books on .NET remoting. ".NET Remoting" by McLean, Naftel and Williams is by far the best. What I like most about it is the writing style; it is clear and concise. What's more, the writing is grammatical and at times best described as elegant. Kudos to the authors. In my opinion, this book is a "must have".

William Stafford

Milkweed Editions, 2003

If A Book Could Save the World. . . it might be this one.
As a review of this book, I offer only that after reading less than a third of it, I ordered additional copies to give away to others. I can't think of another time that I have done this.
