Early Film Noir: Greed, Lust and Murder Hollywood Style

For Anyone Who Loves Movies
Choosing a book to read is often like delving into Forrest Gump's box of chocolates: You never know what you're going to get. You sample all the nuts, chews and creams and finally you come across that one that is so good, so special, that you just can't get enough of it, you want more. That's the way I felt after reading "Early Film Noir," by William Hare, a book that takes you into the realm ...

Hitchcock And the Methods of Suspense

"Hitchcock was a director of meticulous contrasts"
As a film lover fascinated by auteur theory, I decided that I'd overlooked film director Alfred Hitchcock for far too long, and so I approached William Hare's book, "Hitchcock and the Methods of Suspense" with eagerness. Obviously a labour of love for the author, the book traces Hitchcock's phenomenal career with an emphasis on the films and Hitchcock's techniques. This book is not a biography of ...

Harvard University Press, 1979

William James's Introduction to Philosophy
Throughout his life, William James had the ambition to write a book presenting his philosophy in systematic form. He alluded to this goal repeatedly in his published books of philosophy, particularly the "Varieties of Religious Experience." But, as was the "Varieties", James other philosophical works such as "Pragmatism" and "A Pluralistic Universe" consisted of lectures while "The Meaning of ...

One of the best UNIX books ever written.
This is one of the best UNIX books ever written. Period. It's too bad that New Riders never bothered to update it, as it is kind of dated nowadays. It is still very useful, and not a waste by any means, but an update would be nice. It hits on every major aspect of UNIX and has examples. I have found things in there that I didn't find even in the Nemeth books. This belongs on every UNIX ...

A Great Book that Makes These Great Films Even Better
Following up the triumph of his first book devoted to the "Noir" genre, the incisive and entertaining "Early Film Noir: Greed, Lust and Murder Hollywood Style," one of the best books ever written on the subject, author and film historian William Hare surpasses his own benchmark with this offering, his second volume on Film Noir, "L.A. Noir: Nine Dark Visions of the City of Angels," a ...

Struggle for the Holy Land: Arabs, Jews and the Emergence of Israel

William Hare

Madison Books, 1996

IF YOU CAN ONLY READ ONE BOOK ABOUT ISRAEL, LET THIS BE IT!
This was absolutely the BEST book I have ever read regarding the history of the conflict in Israel. I had been unable to find books about the early history of the area that didn't seem biased toward one point of view or the other. STRUGGLE FOR THE HOLY LAND provides a point of intersection in which the interests and aspirations of each side are carefully evaluated. William Hare is truly a ...

Tasha Tudor: The Direction of Her Dreams

Oak Knoll Press, 1998

A bibliography is not a biography
The authors spent nearly 15 years of their life researching and interviewing Tasha Tudor, her students, associates, and family members. This book was ultimately sanctioned by Tasha Tudor and it is a bibliography and not a biography. Just for the record, a bibliography is "the history, identification, or description of writings or publications." A biography is a "written history of a person's ...
