Hauling Up the Morning (Izando la Manana): Writings & art by political prisoners & prisoners of war in the ...1 review
Dalou Asahi, Bill Dunne, ...

The Red Sea Press, 1990

Poetry, Essays and Art Work by Political Prisoners
From back cover: "This book is the answer to a lie. The lie is that there are no political prisoners in the United States. The truth, as reflected in these pages, is that U.S. prisons hold almost 200 men and women jailed for their political acts. They are held because of their protests against racism, injustice, and imperialism. They come from almost every national and ethnic group. ...
  
  











  



  
Primal Fear65 reviews
William Diehl

Unabridged Library Edition, 1993

Psychological & Legal Thrilller!
This is my first book by this author, and I hope to read the next two in this series. I was saddened to learn of the author's death. Primal Fear is a real legal-psychological thriller. I suspected the ending, but it still was a shocker the way it was presented. I have not seen the movie, and probably wouldn't have guessed the ending had Law & Order SVU not done a similar story like it. ...
  
  











  



  
Thunder Bay: A Cork O'Connor Mystery (Cork O'Connor) (Cork O'Connor)20 reviews
William Kent Krueger

Brilliance Audio on CD Unabridged, 2007

Great book!!!!
I always feel like I've just returned from a visit to Northern Minnesota when I finish a Cork O'Connor book. Loved Thunder Bay! Sat down to read for awhile yesterday evening and read the entire book from cover to cover before heading for bed. WKK's character descriptions are so good I feel that I know these people -I'm not just reading about them. His descriptions of the North Woods make ...
  
  











  



  
Red Knife: A Cork O'Connor Mystery (Cork O'Connor) (Cork O'Connor)11 reviews
William Kent Krueger

Brilliance Audio on CD Unabridged Lib Ed, 2008

Krueger writes a darn good myst ery
I am a mystery junkie. And I think my list of favorite male mystery writers is topnotch: James Lee Burke, Michael Connelly, Robert Crais, and Lee Child. But included in that list is Minnesota's own William Kent Krueger. His Cork O'Connor novels _are Minnesota at her best and worst. Krueger's knowledge of the Ojibwe is deep and respectful and his beliefs about violence are thoughtful, if not naïve ...
  
  











  



  
A G-Man's Journal19 reviews
Oliver Buck Revell, Dwight Williams

Pocket, 1999

For the Record
I'd like to set the record straight about the rebooking of Chris Revell's flight and the speculation that his Father "saved his life" and not others. Chris Revell's flight plans were changed at least two weeks prior to Thanksgiving that year in early or mid-November. Chris had more leave-time than he had first thought and asked me to get him a direct flight from Frankfurt to Washington D.C. ...

Mahabharata25 reviews

Motilal Banarsidass,, 2000

"Once Hearing This, Who Can Bear Listening to Other Stories?"
India has two great Epics, the Mahabharata and the Ramayana, which have influenced popular Hinduism more over the last 2,000 years than the Sacred Scriptures, the Vedas, themselves. The Ramayana tells of how Sri Rama, helped by the monkey/god Hanuman, rescues his wife Sita, kidnapped by the demon Ravana and held captive in his fortress on Sri Lanka. The Mahabharata is a more complex tale of ...
  
  











  



  
Bayesian Approach to Interpreting Archaeological Data (Statistics in Practice)1 review
Caitlin E. Buck, William G. Cavanagh, ...

Wiley, 1996

Great treatment of archaeological modelling and probability
Although the later chapters are a bit difficult for the mathematically uninitiated, the early chapters provide a very readable and sensible introduction to the use of modelling and probability in archaeology. Those who have been intrigued by some ideas of Bayesian analysis but who found its concepts difficult to follow will benefit from this book. I think it should be in every serious ...
  
  











  



  
Ramayana17 reviews
William Buck

University of California Press, 1981

Amazing
I was enthralled with this story years ago and continue to be. This condensed translation I think is excellent because it allows those who don't want to read an exhaustively long original version to experience this masterpiece of mythology. As an influencial piece in Hindu culture, understanding this writing is crucial for understanding human nature. But I am appalled by the writer from ...

Believe: A Horseman's Journey6 reviews
Buck Brannaman, William Reynolds

The Lyons Press, 2004

Buck's way has changed my life.
Please read my review for Buck's book "The Faraway Horses," and read that book before you read "Believe." I can't say enough good things about Buck-- his way has truly changed my life. This book has the added dimension of having every other chapter be a true account from individuals whose lives have been changed and affected for the better by learning about Buck's way. Highly recommend.
  
  











  



  
Fatal rat-bite fever--Florida and Washington, 2003.: An article from: Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report1 review
W.J. Pollock, R. Cunningham, ...

U.S. Government Printing Office, 2004

Informative but overpriced
An fascinating article on diagnostic and forensic medicine. It gave me a bit of a start to see an article I'd used in a paper turn up on an Amazon search though; I don't understand why it's being sold here when the CDC gives it away on the MMWR site. A visit to the CDC website and an hour spent reviewing the Morbidity and Mortality archives is time well spent for anyone who wants to learn ...

William Hart Hayt, John A. Buck

McGraw-Hill Higher Education, 2004

Very good book
There are lot of books on undergraduate electromagnetics. This would be in my list.The books I have and recommend are 1) D.K Cheng 2) Hayt and Buck 3) Ulaby 4) Edminister - Schaum's outline electromagnetics. 5) Spiegel - Schaum's outline vector calculus. 6) You should use Finney and George - calculus along with these books. The book you should avoid is one by Kraus!!. If you ...
