Very detailed
I have looked at this book several times, and it is pretty detailed and helpful. I haven't finished studying for the test yet for lack of time. I think it is going to help me quite a bit, because it is also repetitive, which in this cas is good.

DC at it's best
First off, I don't actually own this book - I have the comics in their single issue format. If what the previous reviewer wrote is true (that 40 pages of the original 10-issue run of Aztek comics wasn't printed in this book), then I should have given this book only 1 star for being such a disappointing let-down. For those who don't know, this series (in addition to Morrison's work on Animal Man ...

Great book
I really enjoyed this book. When I look at my two kids I think, same parents, same household, TOTALLY different kids and wonder what really influences them. It's apparent it's not their parents. This book presents an interesting theory on why kids from the same household can be so different from each other.

The end of all self-help
It took me a long time to get through this book. I had it sitting on the shelf amongst several other self-help titles, and when I reached certain portions of the book I found myself bored or disinterested in taking the kind of actions suggested, so I moved to another title. I later realized that by doing so I was exercising my own 'control strategies' as Russ puts it, which really didn't do ...

Moon Knight is the Best
Its been a little more than a year since volume 1 came out, and I've found that volume 2 is as good or even better than the first one. The art continues to improve, and being in black and white just adds to the mysterious feel of Moon Knight. This volume contains issues 11-30 of the first run of Moon Knight comics, first published in the 1980's. It continues Moon Knights battles with the ...

A must-read for anyone interested in mock trial
While working with my mock trial team at Georgetown University, I urged everyone on the team to buy a copy of this book. Because we didn't have a coach, having some source of authority on numerous issues relating to mock trial was critical. This book fit those needs perfectly. Not only do the authors walk through the basics of a trial, but they also include numerous tips for those already ...

Unique Architecture Is Vulgar, Commonplace Is Beautiful!
In Architecture of the Everyday Harris and Berke produced an anthology of essays on the architecture of the everyday. It is ordinary, banal, and quotidian. Yet such a normative, or major, theory encompasses the authority of examples from history. We can only learn how to conjecture, and thereby design, from history. New ideas, or minor theories also abound and are expressed as critical ...
The New Sjogren's Syndrome Handbook

Oxford University Press, USA, 1998
A Must-Read for those with Sjogren's Syndrome
This is one of the best books out there on Sjogren's Syndrome. Because Sjogren's Syndrome is an autoimmune disorder that can affect many different parts of the body, it can be very difficult to live with...however, this book goes into detail about every possible manifestation of the disease and how to cope with them. It's very comprehensive and very scientific at times, but well worth the read.

I laughed till I cried - the second time I read this..
After 2 years in Denmark this book still managed to provide insights into the Danes. I find myself quoting it when trying to discribe Denmark to others ... and even gave it to my Danish boyfriend to give him perspectives on what others see as 'Danish'. His constant 'you mean other people dont do that' where only interupted by his laughter. What is more it has been used as a textbook in a ...

University of Toronto Press

In recent years scholars in a range of disciplines have begun to re-evaluate the history of the Society of Jesus.

They have also looked at the Jesuits as emblematic of certain traits of early modern Europeans, especially as those Europeans interacted with 'the Other' ...
