The Incredible Hulk: What Savage Beast23 reviews
Peter David

Berkley, 1996

Peter David writing the Hulk.....what more can one ask for?
I've been a fan of the Hulk for almost two decades now, so I was very excited when I first heard he would be featured in a full-length book. Having been ousted by his former Pantheon teammates, the Hulk is left with only one alternative: to keep a low-profile and try to lead a normal life with his beautiful and understanding wife, Betty. However, things have never been that simple for the ...

Muy Bueno
Compré el libro y me lo mandaron a mi casa en Santiago, Chile, dentro del tiempo estimado sin ningún problema. La guía es muy buena porque además de ser muy completa es muy práctica en tamaño para llevarla a terreno.
  
  











  



  
Sigmund Ringeck's Knightly Art of the Longsword9 reviews
David Lindholm, Peter Svard

Paladin Press, Boulder, CO, 2003

Excellent resource
I have been studying historical longswordsmanship for more than 7 years now and I can only wish this book had been around the whole while. I began studying Ringeck several years back and have only recently felt as though I have really grasped the elegance of the Liechtenhauer style. This book is perfect for cementing your basic concepts and for clearing up most questions a practitioner might ...
  
  











  



  
Paper Moon15 reviews
Joe David Brown

Thorndike Press, 2002

Splendid!
This is one of the best books I've had the pleasure to read in a while. I was already familiar with the basic story, having seen the movie "Paper Moon" (which I recommend highly!). When I started reading this, I was uncertain whether I'd be able to adjust to the change in location and dialect from the movie; the movie was set in the Midwest, the book in the Southeast. My doubts were quickly put ...
  
  











  



  
The Complete Guide to Adventure Racing19 reviews
Don Mann, Kara Schaad

Hatherleigh Press, 2001

Get Out There and Do It!
The adventure racing world waited a long time for a resource as comprehensive as this one. It is no surprise that we were finally provided this resource by the man who founded Odyssey Adventure Racing, a company that produces more races than any other US AR company and also offers a great racing academy. One of the best features of The Complete Guide to Adventure Racing is that rather than ...

Peter Biadasz

A great asset to any library!
A thought-provoking book!I am using Powerful People Lead healthy Lifestyles as a tool to encourage others to research what they read about health and well-being.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff (Rabbit Ears)13 reviews
Holly Hunter, Tom Roberts, ...

Rabbit Ears, 1995

One of my boys' favorites!
Cute book with pictures that keep their attention. My boys walk around all the time saying "who is going over my bridge" in their gruff little troll voice! "Don't eat me... I too little," they say. I am so glad I added this book to our collection.
  
  











  



  
Lincoln: An Illustrated Biography8 reviews
Jr. Philip B. Kunhardt, Philip B. Kunhardt III, ...

Gramercy, 1999

Brilliant narrative and photography of Abraham Lincoln
Philip B. Kunhardt is to be highly commended for this outstanding photographic history of Abraham Lincoln. Not only are the photographs captivating, but the narrative of Lincolns life and the important events during his lifetime are interesting and enhance this book. Many interesting stories go along with the photographs of Lincoln from his 40's to his last days, however the most interesting ...
  
  











  



  
The Cook's Book11 reviews
Marcus Wareing, Jill Norman, ...

Dorling Kindersley Publishers Ltd, 2005

Beautiful book to own
Beautiful book and great "techniques" depicted. Have still not cooked from it, but I collect cookbooks and unlike "America's Best Recipes" type books which ponder on and on about what they don't like, this one shows you "how to do it" but also have some "lux" meals that you can try. the el bulli master decomposes foams. you can make that "foam soup" you tried at haute restaurants. the ...
  
  











  



  
The Incredible Hulk: Future Imperfect (Marvel's Finest)11 reviews
Peter David

Marvel Entertainment Group, 1994

The enemy is me.
Another masterpiece from the mind of Peter David, Future Imperfect is praised by fans and critics not only as some of his best Hulk work, but as some of his best work overall! Brought forward in time ninety years and arriving in a post-apocalyptic future, the Hulk is beseeched by a group of resistance fighters to take down the being responsible for all the devastation. A being known only as ...
  
  











  



  
The Physiology and Medicine of Diving5 reviews
Peter B. Bennett, David H. Elliott

W B Saunders Co, 1998

Excellent diving physiology text
This is an in depth treatment of the physiology of diving. We use it as a reference at the UCLA Gonda Center for Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Medicine where we operate two large recompression chambers. The style is readable and useful, but I believe that interest in it will be limited to physicians, physiologists,and kinesiologists. For those interested in a less in-depth treatment consider ...
  
  











  



  
Christianity In Jewish Terms (Radical Traditions)5 reviews
Tikva Frymer-kensky, Peter Ochs, ...

Basic Books, 2000

A model for authentic Jewish-Christian dialogue
I wish I could give this book six stars. I can't remember the last time a work of Jewish-Christian dialogue seized my mind, challenged me, and opened up new avenues to understanding. It's a series of essays penned by Jewish scholars, each of which is followed by a pair of response-essays, one by another Jewish specialist, the other by a Christian. Topics include the law and ethics, salvation ...
  
  











  



  
The Race Card: White Guilt, Black Resentment, and the Assault on Truth and Justice6 reviews
Peter Collier, David Horowitz

Prima Lifestyles, 1997

Deserves a wide audience
This is one of the most disturbing books I've read in a long time. Some of the essays are chilling, and all are informative, well-written and compelling. There is little here in which one can take comfort. A must-read for whites and open-minded blacks as well.
  
  











  



  
Unnatural Leadership: Going Against Intuition and Experience to Develop Ten New Leadership Instincts6 reviews

Jossey-Bass, 2002

Breakthrough, Compelling, Useful.
What a terrific book! Unnatural Leadership stimulated my thinking on a number of levels. I read it on a cross-country plane trip, and came away feeling: --A newfound sense of commitment to the work I'm doing; --Energized about the possibilities of leveraging the principles as they relate to my own business; --Eager to apply what I learned toward my own personal development efforts. Not bad ...
  
  











  



  
Maze (Dinotopia)7 reviews
Peter David

Turtleback Books Distributed by Demco Media, 2002

interesting book, interesting characters
The characters in this book were fun to read about, and the plot itself was interesting. Older readers might enjoy this as a nice quick read, as I did. Younger readers will love this well-written and nicely paced adventure.
  
  











  



  
Giants Land,sea & Air6 reviews
David Peters

Random House Children's Books, 1986

Please put out a new edition for the sake of our children
This book has been checked out from the library at least 10 times before we found a copy of our own. We also have another David Peters favorite in "Strange Creatures", and can't wait to get a copy of our own. I only wish that someone would put out a new edition of the books, so we could get them new. With the scale pictures, and the wonderful drawings, it keeps our 8 year old reading for hours ...
  
  











  



  
The Dinosauria6 reviews

University of California Press, 2004

The Dinosauria
"The Dinosauria" edited by David B. Weihampel, Peter Dodson, and Halszka Osmolska is for the serious dinophile and for those with some science and paleontology backgrounds. This book should NOT be tackled by the casual reader as it can be very serious when reading this volume on comparitive anatomy of dinosaur bones. I found "The Dinosauria" to be very well-written and very informative and it ...
  
  











  



  
The Frasier Scripts6 reviews
David Angell, Peter Casey, ...

Newmarket Press, 1999

It is an original!
This book is great because it is an original! You have the original storylines and no additions from other authors. You learn how such a series is made and how important the actors are to bring the action to live.
  
  











  



  
It's a War, Stupid!5 reviews
David Horowitz, Peter Collier

Second Thoughts Books, 1997

Lock and Load and Get Ready to Rumble
Conservatives are no longer political novices so it's time to start acting like it. Part of "growing up" (as Barry Goldwater said) is getting with the program. That means learning the system and working it to your advantage. Unless and until Conservatives start seeing the political struggle the way Liberals do (i.e. a war over culture, spirit, identity, destiny, etc.), Conservatives will be ...
  
  











  



  
Sex Flex: The Way to Enhanced Intimacy and Pleasure6 reviews
Deborah Phd David, Paul Acsm Frediani, ...

Hatherleigh Press, 2000

Great Bonding Book.
This book was great! My wife and I are very busy, and this is great for us to spend some time together. We get to do something that we both enjoy. We are also more limber than we have been in a long time! The pictures were great. Nina and John really looked like they were having a good time, which actually made it easier for us to relax. Reading the credits, I was pleased to see the use of ...
