Another wonderful story by Hijuelos
I believe I have now read all of Hijuelos' books and this one didn't disappoint. Although the oldest sister is the focal point of the story, the reader really gets to know the entire family -- each girl with her strengths, weaknesses, dreams, disappointments, and triumphs, and then there is Emilio surrounded by all those women in his life. The writing is so readable; the words just seem to ...

Brookings Institution Press, 2000

Amazingly Insightful
This is truly an amazing book. Gale and the other editor (Janet Rothenberg Pack) have assembled an outstanding bunch of essays dealing with various problems in urban affairs, including "Tax Incentives and the City" and "Does Gentrification Harm the Poor?"

Butterworth-Heinemann, 2004

Superb for Metalurgists...
However, it is not the best source book for mechanical design. (This refers to the seventh edition) As a design engineer, I find it most useful when finding information on CTE's and other thermal properties, and also to get a good basic understanding of a class of materials. For straight forward stress analysis, resources like MIL-HDBK-5 and the ASM References often prove more useful. If you ...

My 3 yr old gal loves this book!
I found this book about 2 months ago, & have read it out to my then 34 mths old girl. She loves it when we read this story - it is easy/simple to understand the story, & my girl can identify herself in Joey's role! She will also point things out - Joey brushes his teeth, listened to stories, before he goes to sleep, & that Joey's mummy read the bible at bed-time (just like us)! I would ...
