Going Down: The Esssential Guide to Oral Sex

15 reviews
Ben R. Rogers, Joel Perry

Alyson Books, 2002

Fun!
Lots of good advice and information here, and after 40 years of experience (!) I actually learned a few things (some of them I'm not sure I wanted to know.... see "apadravya"). The best part, though, is the entertaining commentary, including a hilarious "quiz" that's worth the price of the book!

Littlest Christmas Tree
R A Herman

Cartwheel Books, 2007

There are only five days until Christmas, and the Littlest Christmas Tree is still waiting for a home. All it wants is for a family to take it home, decorate it, and sing its favorite song, "Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree, how lovely are thy branches..." But as Christmas nears, and one by one the other trees find homes, the Littlest Christmas Tree begins to think that no one will ever take it home. And then, on Christmas Eve, its wish ...

Design and Science: The Life and Work of Will Burtin

1 review
R. Roger Remington and Robert Fripp

Ashgate, 2007

The marriage of design and science
This cannot be a review because I am a co-author of "Design and Science..." This note alerts readers to reviews that Amazon placed in "Editorial Reviews." America's leading design commentator, Steven Heller, reviewed "Design and Science..." for the "New York Times Sunday Book Review" (June 1, 2008). Heller writes, in part: "[Will Burtin's] most influential body of work was in the discipline ...

On Becoming a Person: A Therapist's View of Psychotherapy

22 reviews
Carl R. Rogers

Houghton Mifflin (P), 1961

A humble masterpiece
This book by Carl Rogers on client-centered therapy may lack the drama, the force or the cleverness associated with some books on other forms of psychotherapy. What it doesn't seem to lack is a quiet wisdom that flowed from Rogers' many years of experience and sensitivity to his patients. Despite some redundancy, being a collection of papers and presentations from Rogers over many years, "On ...

A Way of Being

Carl R. Rogers

Houghton Mifflin, 1980

More people should read Carl Rogers
This is a good book to read in addition to "becoming a person." Reading these books will give you insight and ideas as well as refreshing your perception and making you feel great! I found Carl Rogers to elaborate many of the themes that I felt rising up in me while I sat through countless University lectures in Psychology. Rogers also deals with the future of education, and it's plain to see ...

Alone Together: How Marriage in America Is Changing

Paul R. Amato, Alan Booth, ...

Harvard University Press, 2007

A superb review of changes in marriage in the past 20 years.
Amato, Booth, Johnson, and Rogers have written a thorough, scholarly, and smooth reading book that documents important changes in the state (and nature) of marriages in the U. S. over the past 20 years (particularly, comparing data in 1980 and 2000). Their work covers a wide range of dimensions with particular focus on things like social connection (by couples) with others (friends, family, ...

American Modernism: Graphic Design, 1920-1960

1 review
R. Roger Remington

Yale University Press, 2003

Design it right and they did
Roger Remington has written a fascinating survey of American graphic design and I enjoyed looking at the dozens of illustrations especially those from the late fifties onwards when I was familiar with the work of so many American designers. The work of Otto Storch on McCall's, Lou Dorfsman at CBS and naturally the typography of Herb Lubalin was a strong influence on my work as a publication ...

7 reviews
Meg Kennedy Dugan, Roger R. Hock

Brunner-Routledge, 2006

Great Book!
I left an abusive relationship and kept wondering why me? This book really helped me see what happened and why I stayed as long as I did. I really could relate to the book well and it helped a lot with the healing process.

Roger R. Hock

Prentice Hall, 2008

Great Intro to Psychological Research
I'm a psych major in college, so I naturally enjoyed reading about these important studies. However, I think anyone could enjoy this book. It's very readable and covers crucial research from all areas of psychology. Read about one study or all forty; this is a great book!

Bonebeds: Genesis, Analysis, and Paleobiological Significance

1 review

University Of Chicago Press, 2008

Bonebeds
A brilliant book - of utility to anyone who is new to fieldwork palaeontology, is doing fieldwork, or is thinking about it. The volume is more a definitive textbook on the subject rather than a collection of palaeontology research papers. As such, you won't find researches on specific animals or sites. Instead, some choice examples are used to support the theory or ideas presented in each ...

I give this book five stars as it really helped me organise and prioritise my life.

6 reviews
Roger R. Harding, R.F. Symes

Dorling Kindersley Publishers Ltd, 2002

A VISUAL FEAST!
The photographs of OVER 200 CRYSTALS AND GEMS is worth the purchase price of this book. And I am not just talking about ANY picture of each crystal, I am talking about a GORGEOUS, AMAZING sample picture of each crystal! Some of my favorite photographs/stones included are: Opals (My personal favorite stone ok, tied with Diamond!), Aragonite, Agate, Tourmaline, Calcite, Topaz, Barite, Hematite, ...

Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning

31 reviews

Human Kinetics Publishers, 2008

Evidence-Based Exercise Info at its Best
When it comes to telling people how to train, I want to know that the advice I give is based on evidence, not what on other people say, and not on what I "think" is going to work. While you could dig around on various electronic databases, such as Medline to get such information, its nice to have all the latest excercise recommendations based on sound research at your fingertips. And if you're ...

Lester Beall: Trailblazer of American Graphic Design

2 reviews
R. Roger Remington

W. W. Norton & Company, 1996

A design library essential
Although not as well known as others from his period such as Paul Rand and Saul Bass, Lester Beall was indeed a trailblazer. Most designers will recognize his work for the Rural Electrification Act which produced some of the most monumental and striking posters ever to be designed. Beall's work is as relevant and fresh today as it was 40 years ago. His logo for the International Paper Co. is ...

Preaching to Every Pew
James R. Nieman, Thomas G. Rogers

Augsburg Fortress Publishers, 2001

The growing cultural diversity of American society is mirrored in the pews and parishes of mainline denominations and represents a dynamic challenge to the effective proclamation of the gospel on both Sunday mornings and in parish educational venues. When people from a wide variety of cultural backgrounds listen to the same sermon, it is more than likely that they will not "hear" the same message. Preaching to Every Pew, based on extensive ...

Fundamentals of Astrodynamics

Roger R. Bate, Donald D. Mueller, ...

Dover Publications, 1971

absolute classic
An excellent introduction that is VERY readable. Chapter 4 has a nice section on using Universal Formulation for time of flight. Intro books costing over $100.00 are not of this quality. This book is a rare case where you get more than you pay for.
