The Full Tilt Poker Strategy Guide: Tournament Edition

27 reviews
Andy Bloch, Richard Brodie, ...

Grand Central Publishing, 2007

Please don't read this book
In the world of poker literature, no limit hold em advice dries up and becomes useless pretty quickly these days. One year after its release, this underrated and underread book still holds advice that has yet to find its way into most tournaments. Almost every chapter regarding NLHE offers insights into the game that blows almost everything else away. Dare I say it, I think it even makes HOH ...

Yes, Master: The Chun-tzu of Magical Spontanaeity
Chun-Tzu: The ideal of a person who uses divination to order his/her life in accordance with the Tao rather than willful intention." -Stephen Karcher, translator of the I-Ching On the highway, it is not rare to see a wave, all alone, one wave separated from the ocean. It is absolutely useless, does not constitute a set. This is a case of magical spontaneity. - Henri Michaux, from "In the ...

Mark Morris Institute, 2000

An almost overwhelming amount of information
If you are one of those people that want to be able to find answers to questions on your own, no matter how technical, this is a good book for you. First, this review is being written from the perspective of a pet owner, NOT a veterinarian. I do have 20 years experience interacting with human clinicians (doctor, pharmacists, nurses, etc.) so I am familiar with more medical jargon than most ...

From the first photo of Beth Hopkins and her mother to the last photo Sanclary Saunders with her hat, "without no veil," we are treated to respectful photos from the artful lens of Michael Cunningham.

5 reviews
Michael Craig

Career Press, 2000

Terrific book -- readable, smart, even fun
This is when business is at its most exciting -- when the façade of carefully laid plans and beautifully executed plays fades into a reality of last-minute decisions, Hail Mary passes and ego-driven competitiveness. This book looks at 50 such moments, dividing them into ten categories, such as "Do Your Homework" (The disastrous formation of Cendant from the merger of HFS and CUC Int'l) and "Take ...

Crc Pr I Llc, 1997

Very good material
This book covers a wide area of subjects related to Client/Server architecture, networks, architecture design, implementation guidelines, strategy, security... There is a good balance between theoretical and practical knowledge. Due to the extend of the subjects, it can not go in depth in all points, but it is definitely a very practical and usefull reference book, probably aimed at managers ...

En Divina Luz: The Penitente Moradas of New Mexico

2 reviews

Univ of New Mexico Pr, 1994

An extremely beautiful book on a mysterious subject.
I am a landscape photograper, like Mr. Varjabedian is, but not as good. His photographs are some of the best I have ever seen in my entire life, even better than Ansel Adams. This book is about "Los Hermanos Penitentes," or the Penitent Brothers, a Catholic lay brotherhood that was founded because of a lack of preists in New Mexico. The Brother's activities have always been very secret, but ...

Mcdonald's Blood Flow in Arteries: Theoretical, Experimental and Clinical Principles

1 review
Wilmer W. Nichols, Michael F. O'Rourke

A Hodder Arnold Publication, 1998

Simply amazing...and probably over your head
This book is an amazing reference. It is a hardcore scientific look at the flow of blood through arteries. It's about time this edition was released, because the last edition is more than ten years old. The book is separated into chapters that are really monographs on their respective subjects. The authors do an excellent job of giving a bird's eye view of each topic and then go into far more ...

Michael James, Steven C. Warner, ...

Ave Maria Pr, 1995

Excellent combination of songs for meditation and background
I have listened to this tape many times while traveling on long trips. It is soothing and stimulates prayer. The combination of songs are thoughtfully arranged and very well performed. I recommend it highly for meditation or as background to drown out the daily noise. I wish it was in CD format also.

Five Apples Press, 2007

Spice Up Your Life!
Some people may not remember the 1990s fondly, but for me personally, it was the greatest time of my life. When I found out that a trivia book had been published about the Pop Culture from the 90s, I knew I had to purchase a copy. I'm certainly glad I did, as this book is amazing. The book covers all aspects of pop culture during the decade, from television and movies to music, books, even ...

Ping pong helicopters to go!
Mike Craig's ability to 'karate-chop' the picket fences without convention, re-lace a glassy thorax with a corset, and carry us into his talc-dusted waiting room [Borandaho,yes?] is astonishing... his [poems] are visions akin to Blake, but swing and attend to the world like Neruda. I hesitate for a moment in his lobby of 'protractions and regional artifacts', but as a great artist, he lives in ...
