The Selfish Gene: 30th Anniversary Edition--with a new Introduction by the Author

284 reviews
Richard Dawkins

Oxford University Press, USA, 2006

Some people never get it.
After reading this book a while back, I really did not get the impression from it that many people got. Some became depressed because of it?! It just does not make any sense. This book does not tell us that we are no more than automatons, or that we are no more than our genes, or that we live a purposeless life, doomed to live out whatever was programmed into us by our genetic code. Sure, ...

Leadership: Theory and Practice

29 reviews
Peter G. Northouse

Sage Publications, Inc, 2006

A High Quality Book
According to Kurt Lewin, "There is nothing as practical as a good theory". This is an apt comment in reference to Peter Northouse's book "Leadership: Theory and Practice". The author methodically and clearly explained the major theories and concepts of leadership in a readable and easily understandable manner, in a way that readers can easily implement them. Northouse stresses the need to link ...

Network 3000, 2000

Very insightful.
Let me begin by saying this is my first review ever written for a book on Amazon. I recently received this gem this past summer and just now (November, 2007) read it, and it two days I may add. This book offers a lot of insightful tips and tricks on what is proactive in communicating ideas to those you are conversing with. Everything from posture to subtle wording of phrases and sentences. ...

Peopleware: Productive Projects and Teams (Second Edition)

78 reviews
Tom DeMarco, Timothy Lister

Dorset House Publishing Company, Incorporated, 1999

A must for project managers
It's hard to find at Amazon a book rated with deserved 5-stars. Even harder if it's got a good review by Joel Spolsky. Peopleware is one of them.Simple language, short chapters with plain ideas inside and a touch of psychology, altogether produces a confusing feeling. It seems as if the book tells you nothing you didn't already know but there is where its power lies: you end up thinking that you ...

Dorian Solot, Marshall Miller

Da Capo Press, 2007

A must-read
Anyone who is female - or anyone who sleeps with females - needs to read this book. It's written in a clear, friendly, sometimes funny way. It provides a ton of great information and insights. I learned a lot from this book, as I think would anyone. I loved that it is also inclusive of everyone, straight or not. This would also be a great book to give to a girl before she becomes sexually active ...

The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities

87 reviews
Dossie Easton, Catherine A. Liszt

Greenery Press (CA), 1997

Required Reading For All Couples
So I was serious when I meant that the Ethical Slut should be required reading for all couples. Not that I think that polyamory or ethical sluthood is for everyone. In fact- let's be honest, it's not. But the chapters on communication and jealousy are amongst the best ever written. The message is clear- you have to own your own happiness and emotions, and be able to clearly communicate your needs ...

The History of Sexuality: An Introduction

28 reviews
Michel Foucault

Vintage, 1990

Hard...but worth it.
Foucault is one of the most important thinkers of our time. He is a historian, a cultural theorist, and a philosopher. When looking at the History of Sexuality Foucault does not see powerful figures repressing sex, but actually encouraging people to discuss it. This discourse was encouraged so that sex could be controlled and this discourse actually created what is today called sexuality--a norm ...

Guide To Getting It On!

93 reviews
Paul Joannides

Goofy Foot Press, 2006

Please don't get the older editions
Sorry, but I'm the author of this book, and they wouldn't print this note unless I gave the book a star rating. We've been wrestling with Amazon for the past year to have the current 5th edition of the GUIDE TO GETTING IT ON come up first when shoppers do a search. It still doesn't. Instead, the 3rd edition from 2001 comes up. Heck, the German edition comes up before the current 5th edition! ...
