Seeds of Destruction: The Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation

5 reviews
William F. Engdahl

Global Research, 2007

Sobering Conclusions
Engdahl lays bare the partnership between government, the major foundations and the agribusiness industry in their eternal quest for global domination with extensive citations, tying it all together well. The Rockefellers do not shine with this exposure. This book is a sobering analysis of the situation we are facing with respect to destruction of the globe's biodiversity and the indigenous and ...

The Organic Gardener's Handbook of Natural Insect and Disease Control: A Complete Problem-Solving Guide to ...

28 reviews

Rodale Books, 1996

The perfect handbook
The book really is complete, easy to consult and delightful to page through. I live in a tropical area outside the US and was afraid the book might not cover the (many) pests we withstand here. But they were all there, and were referred to attacks against tropical foliages, which actually amazed me! The detailed pictures of insects and disease symptoms are accompanied by an informative text, and ...

The Anti-Estrogenic Diet: How Estrogenic Foods and Chemicals Are Making You Fat and Sick

Ori Hofmekler

North Atlantic Books, 2007

Good book, interesting and correct information.
I have been researching and testing diets and weight loss programs for almost 20 years. They all work if and when you are ready. This one has very correct information about the estrogen issue, and it is well worth reading, even if you are not willing to follow the instructions to the "t". It will reshape your views on food and nutrition.

Uncle Tungsten: Memories of a Chemical Boyhood

Oliver Sacks

Vintage, 2002

I wish all children were introduced to science like this!
Sigh...as a science educator who sees students turned off of science in spite of it being much more interesting and useful then English and history, it's frustrating to read about a child whose family managed to convey the fun of science. I've enjoyed Oliver Sacks books so much. He is such a great person, a great neurologist, a great writer who manages to introduce the world to his scientific ...

The Periodic Table

13 reviews
Adrian Dingle, Simon Basher

Kingfisher, 2007

great book for middle school chemistry!
This book describes over 100 elements of the periodic table from a first-person point of view, making the elements seem like they are people. Each element has a two-page spread, with one page containing information about the element and the other page showing a cartoon picture of the element. The information listed includes the element's symbol, atomic number, color, and date of discovery. ...

The Appeal

407 reviews
John Grisham

Doubleday, 2008

Overly Political and not Grisham's best
I think the name of my review says it all. While I have not read all of Grisham's books this is the first that I have read that has a clear political message - it yells "HANDS OFF TORT REFORM" and "JUDGES NEED TO BE APPOINTED". While I don't have a problem with the point that he is making (I am personally against too much tort reform) his delivery is far from perfect. Grisham relies too much ...

Pihkal: A Chemical Love Story

34 reviews
Alexander Shulgin, Ann Shulgin

Transform Press, 1991

Highly analytical, relevant and a record of reality......
I purchased PIHKAL from Amazon and read it in it's entirety. The most poignant aspect of this book reveals that as we are organic machines, our consciousness is just another chemically induced perception and therefore only one valid reality predisposed by evolution for survival. Shulgin's Genius is honed with such objectivity, innocence, dedication and clarity that he is able to both ...

Solid chemistry in a down-to-earth approach to learning...

This is the EXACT book you need to get in order to rekindle that love or to pass it on to a new generation... Illustrated Guide to Home Chemistry ...

Brooks Cole, 2005

students and penny-pinchers
the international paperback version of this book is exactly the same as the hardback version and it's considerably less expensive. it comes with the CD-ROM but does NOT provide OWL or online access codes to the web based program- but you can purchase those separately at the thomas learning website... and you'd still be saving money. as for the book, I've only been using it 3 weeks but I like ...

Alicia Grosso

Adams Media, 2007

Alicia has done it again!
I've been an artisian soaper for over seven years. I found this book wonderful! Very well written with up-to-date 21st century information. The essential oil section is especially useful for knowing which essential oils that "come through" in cold process or hot process soap. I had to learn most of this the hard way through trial and error, and spending alot of money on research. There ...

Mandy Aftel

Gibbs Smith, Publisher, 2004

Fascinating! Delightful!
Essence & Alchemy was a really wonderful adventure in reading. From the history of perfume to the process, old and new, involved in extracting essences, to the follow-along steps to creating your own perfume, I found this book to be entertaining and informative from the first page to the last. The comparison between perfumery and alchemy was insightful. The illustrations were charming and fun. ...

Quantitative Chemical Analysis

Daniel C. Harris

W. H. Freeman, 2006

Why can't all chem books be like this?
The explanations and reasoning behind doing certain procedures and calculations in this book is outstandingly good (most of the time). Each chapter provides detailed workthroughs of problems with easy to understand explanations and in a wide enough variety of ways for one to be able to do most of the problems in the back of the chapter without TOO much trouble. The life saver though is the ...

The Hundred-Year Lie: How to Protect Yourself from the Chemicals That Are Destroying Your Health

45 reviews
Randall Fitzgerald

Plume, 2007

More horrifying than the best Stephen King book
Many of us have heard bits and pieces of what's contained in this book -- chemical body burdens, unintended and disastrous side effects of drugs, toxic households, lead in toys, etc. -- but to have it all together, in one well-researched book, was literally more horrifying than the best Stephen King book. This book was an epiphany for me -- and I haven't had one of those in years.

A SPLENDID BOOK
This book is not only visually stunning, it is also a fascinating read. This is the first time that these beautiful and unusual fabrics have been given their due recognition both as designs and as an important part of Russian/Soviet history.

Now in it's sixth edition, this book has become the standard text on the design and construction of buildings made of wood.
