Nelson's New Testament Survey: Discovering the Essence, Background & Meaning About Every New Testament Book

2 reviews
Mark Bailey, Tom Constable

Thomas Nelson, 2003

Great Book for study
This is one of the best commentaries to read for studing the Bible. There is a companion to it for the Old Testament that is just as good. It breaks down everything you need to know to understand the Bible.

AfterBurn: Reflections on Burning Man (Counterculture Series)

4 reviews

University of New Mexico Press, 2005

Reflections on the Reflections of Burning Man
Prior to reading this excellent sophisticated introduction to Burning Man, I had dismissed this event as shamanism and tantra for amateurs. However, these well written, knowledgeable, and at times quite learned articles, have convinced me that Burning Man allows for the creation of authentic rituals that are rife with both transformative and aesthetic epiphanies. Moreover, it appears that Burning ...

DRINK UP, READ UP!
THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTFUL BOOK. It is a great gift for any interested in authors or mixing drinks ... or both. Small but packs a powerful punch.

Courageous and Heart-Breaking
I have just returned from seeing Steve Lehman's exhibition of photographs from Tibet at the Newseum/NY- PLEASE GO SEE THIS SHOW IF YOU CAN!!! I stood before some of the most touching and moving color, black and white photographs and collages with tears running down my face at the inhumanity and humanity of the disgusting situation in Tibet. How can the United States and other so-called free ...

Oh What a Little Paint Can Do-Do-Do!!!
Reviewed by Carolyn Howard-Johnson "Back to Literature" columnist for MyShelf One of the most stylish publishers that exhibits at Book Expo America each year is Ryland Peters and Small of London and New York. The Color Design Source Book by Caroline Clifton-Mogg is one of their smartest presentations. Much more than a how-to book, this is very nearly a piece for the coffee table. The size is ...

Cyril H. Wecht, Mark Curriden, ...

Onyx, 1994

Lessons from a Forensic Pathologist
The Foreword by F. Lee Bailey tells of his friendship and admiration for Dr. Cyril Wecht. He also "highlights a truth which most Americans do not readily comprehend: that our legal system is not in its essence 'a search for truth' at all. The system is in reality a search for those truths which at least one of the lawyers want to bring to the fore, and not those truths which are too hot ... for ...

Guardians of the Moral Order: The Legal Philosophy of the Supreme Court, 1860-1910

2 reviews
Mark Warren Bailey

Northern Illinois University Press, 2004

The Glory of the Unity of the Law
This is a necessary book in both jurisprudence and American history generally. Another reviewer believes that the justices of the period read their politics (or more accurately, what that reviewer believes to have been their politics) into the Constitution. This completely misses the point of the book: the justices believed not only in the unity of the common law, but in the Unity of the Law - ...

Simon T. Bailey

Infinite Possibilities Pub Group, 2003

Read it... then read it AGAIN!
Reading this book is almost like having Simon in the room with you, cheering you along. His personality and energy jumps off the pages. His encouragement is sincere and his passion is infectious. I have seen him speak, and was amazed that so much enthusiasm can come from one person!! If you have not seen him speak... DO! If you can book him to speak for your organization... DO IT! If you ...

Bending the Landscape: Fantasy (Bending the Landscape)

Mark Shepherd, Ellen Kushner, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 1996

worth seeking out
Sigh. There are so few fantasy novels and stories with interesting gay and lesbian characters (especially lesbian). In a perfect world, this volume of short stories might only be mediocre, but because it's one of the only anthologies of its kind, it's downright wonderful! There's a wide variety of stories here; my only complaint is that there are really no "classic" fantasies, by which is mean ...

Saint

Jove, 1997

Where do our memories live?
A scientist comes up with a theory that our memories are recorded in our DNA. Using his own DNA and a chimpanzee, the results seem promising. The scientist then puts in a request to the Roman Catholic Church to use the bones of a saint. The bones he gets might be those of St. Peter himself. I picked this book up on a whim ages ago, because it looked interesting and it certainly was. I ...

Oudry's Painted Menagerie: Portraits of Exotic Animals in Eighteenth-Century France (J. Paul Getty Museum)

2 reviews

Getty Publications, 2007

Oudry"s Painted Menagerie
Fabulous book! I really enjoyed this book,and I'm so glad I purchased it. It offers a "mind blowing" experience in this genre. The paintings, the drawings all depict with much clarity an area of history I was not familiar with. No longer! Clara has entered my life with a "bang"! I was never aware of her, and the loyal following is just another example of animal rights. Again the paintings and ...

New Testament Explorer

Mark Bailey, Tom Constable

Thomas Nelson, 1999

Following the Map
New Testament Explorer does an excellent job of mapping out the arguments of all the New Testament books. The sections which survey each book's contents are considerably more detailed than most survey books. However, the outlines are much more brief and general in comparison to the detail of the surveys. Some outlines are so general, they do not seem capture the distinctives of the Bible book. ...

Prentice Hall, 1996

Assessing Infants and Preschoolers with Special Needs
This text is a timely and insightful work. The authors give a good overview of the major assessment instruments used in Early Intervention and Early Childhood Special Education. Procedural guidelines, cultural validity and family concerns are also discussed. I found that the book is a great reference tool to go back to when questions arise! I would recommend this book to anyone working in the ...

American Hollow

10 reviews
Rory Kennedy, Mark Bailey

Bulfinch Press, 1999

Tell it like it is.
In my opinion, the American Hollow is not the author's literary and photographic perception of life in Appalachia. It is an unbiased view of life in the hollow as seen by one family. The author did not attempt to label the family as being representative of the population in general. Whether the family is atypical of the average Appalachian family is irrelevant. The determination of authenticity ...

"I can think of no other time in history where the name of Jesus has been so frequently mentioned and the content of His life and teaching so thoroughly ignored". - Brennan Manning, Lion and Lamb The teachings of Jesus Christ shook the traditions that had arisen during the four hundred years between the testaments and He fulfilled the Law in a way that few had ever anticipated. To follow Him ...
