50 Content Area Strategies for Adolescent Literacy (Teaching Strategies Series) 1 review
Douglas Fisher, William G. Brozo, ...
Prentice Hall, 2006
Buy this too if you're buying Improving Adolescent Literacy: Strategies at Work
I think this book is a great additional to a content area teacher's library, but is probably the second Doug Fisher book to read. After reading Improving Adolescent Literacy: Strategies at Work I understand better where and when to use the easily described/pictured strategies and am confident that I can sell the importance of those activities to my middle schoolers.
Strategies are 1-2 pages, ...

A very useful text for clinical practice

How to Hot Rod Volkswagen Engines 15 reviews
Fred William Fisher
HP Trade, 1987
Very Informative
This book gives you exactly what it claims. All the best ways to improve performance on your VW. There is quite a bit for the average bug guy but has great technical information for the top mechanics. I wish there had been a bit more on improving fuel injected engines though.

William Shatner, David Fisher
Thomas Dunne Books, 2008
William F-ing Shatner!
I bought this book at the Borders down the way from William Shatner's offices in Studio City. When I got it home, I discovered it had been autographed. Compared the signature via the Net and discovered it was the real deal. Apparently, Shatner had snuck in and scribbled his John Hancock on the front page when nobody was looking. Just for you-know-whats-and-giggles, apparently.
Kind of sums up ...

a decorative fairy tale.....
As stated in the book's introduction, the decoration of this house does indeed capture the mood, spirit and colors of Provence.

A Must
This is one of the best books I have ever read about real estate. I read plenty of books on real estate but this one does a great job on explaining how the real estate industry works. It talks about residential real estate market and its financing. Then it goes on to commercial real estate. It talks about real estate development and then the secondary market. It really is a great book that ...

During the past fifteen years, changes in technology have generated an extraordinary array of new ways in which music and movies can be produced and distributed. Both the creators and the consumers of entertainment products stand to benefit enormously from the new systems. Sadly, we have failed thus far to avail ourselves of these opportunities. Instead, much energy has been devoted to interpreting or changing legal rules in hopes of ...
