When Dinosaurs Die
This is an excellent book. I purchased it to read to my almost 4 year old grandson whose "grandpa" died 3 months ago. I particularly enjoyed the way the book starts out with - What Does Alive Mean? and then goes on to explain what it means and also what dead means. The artwork is great and non threatening. This has become a favorite.

What a great book
I am a nanny working for divorced family. I found the 8-year old reading the book, I was interested so I read the whole book and I was so impressed I got it for my kids too. Not that I am planing on divorce but the kids have so many friends coming from divorced families and this could help them understand situation they are going through. I think the book explains very sensitively whole process ...

Pure Feynman - a real joy
I did a course on quantum theory in the 1970s with John Ward who was recommended for the Nobel Prize in 1965 (Feynman, Schwinger and Tomogana shared it). Those close to the action will know of Ward's Identity. John (died in 2002 from memory) used Feynman's lectures as his course notes. I must confess a soft spot for Feynman. I would have loved to have been in his lectures (buy his audio ...

Birds + Bees + Kids Pick!
A great book for kids 5 and under, it covers the basic information kids need to know about how babies are made, okay/not okay touches and families. Its fun cartoon illustrations make it an engaging read for the preschool set. I love the drawings of naked boys and girls that show how we are alike and different. At this age, kids are very curious about body parts, both public and private, and ...

My seven year old daughter loves this book she is using it as her guide to get her "honey" (my husband) into shape. She has walked around holding it fussing at her father since I read it to her at bedtime. She reads passages to him and leaves notes in the refrigerator and pantry for him.

Required reading for a host
Reviewed by Dr. Letitia S. Wright, D.C. for Reader Views (6/06) Laurie Browne has created a simple book which outlines the easiest way to learn how to use a teleprompter. Over the years that I have been doing my television show, I have had at least 20 guests insist that they wanted to use the teleprompter. I wish I could have handed them this book and said read this and then come back. The use ...

Finally, a great way to teach children about the environment!
Wow - this book was a big surprise. It was something that my kids had picked out at the library, and now we are planning to buy our own copy. With it's main character, Slobosaurus, showing children (and adults too) how we take our environment for granted, the lessons of the simple ways to correct this are great for children ages 4-8 (and even up through adults). Kids learn everything from not ...

Anyone who has followed Feynman should read this
Fascinating and insiteful lectures from many of the great people in the world of physics. Amusing anecdotes, touching tributes, and glimpses into the private life of a genius who was also extremely human and persevered through very painful personal problems to help create the atomic bomb while his wife was seriously ill, yet keeping his spirits up and his sense of humor. Never a person to rest ...

essays from key authors of Standard Model
While the essays perhaps strive to reach a wide audience, the reality is that the typical reader will likely be a physicist or student of science history. If this fits your background, then the book is indeed an informative account of how the so-called Standard Model arose. Much of the book's value is that several authors were key participants in the development of the Standard Model. ...
