Skewers the paradigms of the liberal environmental fascist movement
Iain Murray well-written book skewers the fundamental principles of the radical left environmental movement, and does it very artfully. Clearly, this is a compelling book which mastefully states the case of the failures of the environmental movement, and their `liberal fascistic" approach to society. Murray shows at the very beginning that the environmental movement focuses on (1) identifying ...

Thought-provoking and challenging work
I purchased this in hardcover as soon as it came out, and when I received my Kindle I purchased it again so I'd have it handy. Simply put...this is an outstanding work. Meticulously researched yet written in an approachable style, Goldberg makes an effective argument. I found some of the themes challenging, particularly since I had to "unlearn" a number of things I had discovered I had ...

Bought it for class, keeping it for the fun! ;)
I bought this for a writing class I am required to take before I graduate. It is a great resource. I remember buying these when I was just a little freshman and they were never of much worth to me. This one is spiral bound, so it lays flat, it has sample papers to show you exactly how to use the format you need and many exercises that I have admittedly never touched. It will be a good ...

Best Book I have read all year & most important one for 2008!
I am only 3/4 of my way through reading this book. After listen to talk radio, I could not believe a Presidential canidate can have a less impressive resume than myself or anyone else I have known! He has lied in his books, lied about his family, hates America, compares us to France and China, when we are the GREATEST COUNTRY on earth, and the rest of us are d*mn proud to be Americans and live in ...

Immanuel Kant

Which translation of the Grundlegung is right for you?
There is no doubt that Kant's Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten is one of the three or four most important texts of modern moral philosophy. The only question is, if you have to rely on an English translation, which translation is best? I think that depends on why you are reading this book. If you have only a casual interest in Kant, or if you are reading this book only because it is ...

With all the mayo in the world, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken Sh****...
Other than the real encouraging, funny way that Greg and Amiira Behrendt tell these stories, they are all based on just common sense rules. Some might claim that it's not rocket science to know that you shouldn't call your ex, but the truth that when we are broken hearted, we can't even go through life, let alone using common sense. This book would be wonderful for you if you got out of the ...

Excellent Introduction to the Field of Psychology
I had this book as a textbook for my intro to psych class. It is a well written text. Unlike most textbooks, it is not dry or boring. This book uses examples for it's concepts, such as Tiger Wood's golf game and Alice in Wonderland. It also has diagrams, definitions, graphs, tables, and mini-experiments to back up and sum up the text. In short, it is set up well for any type of learner. The text ...

Book will change your perspective on your circumstances.
This book is well written, easy to understand and apply to your life now. It's so good it's worth being read more than once. The other thing I discovered is that when applying what you have read your behavior is changed and you are renewed no matter what you are experiencing.

Excellent explanation of the gospel and how it transforms us
In her latest book, Because He Loves Me, Elyse Fitzpatrick asks an interesting question: In your pursuit of godliness, have you left Jesus behind? You may be wondering, how is that possible? Do you remember the biblical account of Mary and Joseph's return to Nazareth following their celebration of Passover in Jerusalem? After a day's journey, they realized that Jesus was not with them. They ...

A message for all humans
I know this book is for kids, but I received it as a grownup's gift and was in tears before I got to the third page. The message this book imparts gives a gentle reminder that we all bring something to the world and our very existence is something to be treasured. It also reminds the reader that we have the potential to bring positive action to our world and the people in it. These are valuable ...
