The Adjuster by Scott Bobrow
I loved this story. It is so real and true to the ugliness of life
in corporate america. Willard Newman has all the attributes and foul elements that the insurance industry embodies. I could definitely see Robin Williams playing this part. Willard Newman is a character I will not forget. He is etched in my mind forever. Read this book!

Delightful Reading
In the Little Sisters Anthology a reader has the opportunity to indulge in a delicious bouquet of mystery murder genres. Each story with it's own unique style and color. In Oh Hell, I found a delightful collection of characters that anyone would enjoy playing a weekly game of cards with. I would encourage readers to treat themselves to this enjoyable compilation of short stories, it won't ...

Empty Nesting: Reinventing Your Marriage When the Kids Leave Home3 reviews
David H. Arp, Claudia S. Arp, ...
Jossey-Bass, 2001
Just the two of us again
Although we are an empty nest couple, it doesn't seem that way with the pets we inherited from the kids when they moved out. We have 3 cats, 1 dog and an iguana to keep us busy now. I think the kids were easier to raise! This great book isn't just for couples who have a truly empty nest. Many midlife couples today find that their nests get refilled with boomerang adult kids, aging parents, ...

Exploring Hanauma Bay (A Kolowalu Book)4 reviews
Susan Scott
University of Hawaii Press, 1994
Short and oh so sweet
This is a great book on Hanauma Bay, and one I often recommend for visitors. It is very different from the other books about Hanauma Bay, in that it is organized as to where you are and what you'll see, as opposed to a grand listing of everything. Are you planning on just walking along the beach? Going out to the deeper water? Wading? These specific ecosystems and habitats have their ...

Route 66: The Highway and Its People3 reviews
Susan Croce Kelly
Univ of Oklahoma Pr, 1988
Photograpic view of the social life along old 66
This books contains all that is needed to make the reader -or viewer- want to travel the road, even just by looking at the pictures. It isn't called a photographic essay for nothing. The text is more social oriented and is probably one way to look at the 20th century and its cultural heritage along Historic Route 66. Those readers going travel old 66 might be a little bit disappointed that it ...

Healing with Nature1 review
Susan Scott
Allworth Press, 2003
Connecting
I was surprised and delighted at the depth of the author's observations. The writing style brings the reader into an honest and insightful connection with others and nature, especially trees.The reader feels part of the experience. After several chapters,I am curious why other therapists do not utilize this method of healing more often than not. Nature offers a safe and trusting environment for ...

Kansas, in her spare time brought nineteen of the best Business &
Personal Coaches to share their insights, in one chapter. "Success

Fighting for Your African American Marriage1 review, ...
Jossey-Bass, 2001
Avoids overly technical language and gets to the nitty gritty
The concepts in Fighting for Your African American Marriage are based on psychological principals of male/female relationships, but sensitively adapted to the typical experiences of middle-class black couples. Keith Whitfield has obviously spent a lot of time with black couples, and seems to understand both the men and the women. The book expertly addresses issues of modern vs. traditional ...

Companion to Heidegger's Contributions to Philosophy:1 review
Indiana University Press, 2001
Co-Thinking the Ab-Grund
We are enveloped in this book by an Introduction and thirteen masterful essays, on and in the Heideggerian movement of enowning, a.k.a. the event of appropriation (Ereignis). I use the word "enveloped" with care, as this book is not a presentation that the reader can enact on her or his own as if it entails simply gathering the meanings of key terms and 'ideas.' This is so because the English ...

In a textbook review process designed for ABSN students on March 23, 2006, at the Duke School of Nursing, students reviewed, rated and chose this new text as their textbook for their summer 2006 course: The Nursing Care of the Childbearing Family.
As the course coordinator, I have become increasingly frustrated with the ongoing complaints of students about the size and "massive" amounts of ...
