Where research and practice meet
Finally!, a book that engages visual communication practice with cognitive neuroscience and psychology research. Too often these areas live separately and as a graphic designer professor, I find the Kosslyn's content invaluable. As producers of visual communication, students should know what is going on in the mind of their users. I plan on adding Clear and to the Point to my course ...

The Dream-Hunters aren't Dark-Hunters
I had to post this review because I don't think Once Upon The Midnight Clear has been done any justice by other reviews. I think the whole problem is that people are expecting the Dark-Hunters and the Dream-Hunters are gods and these books deal more with mythology then Ash and his mad, bad, bitterly betrayed, sex-deprived Dark-Hunters. So, if you've never liked the greek mythology part of the ...

What a Relief!
This book was such a help. As a compliant parent of a very strong willed, hot headed 4 year old I was wearing myself out with all the work it was. I was even a director of a shelter that taught kids and parents behavioral modification and I felt I was really failing. The book normalized my sons' limit testing, showed me how to change my techniques in dealing with him and we have begun to see ...

An excellent text
i have been teaching Business Research to MBA classes for 5 years. I have gone through many text books and tried out several as recommended reading for my classes. None come even close to the readability and sheer ease of use of this book by Professor Zikmund. It is well organised, and gives comprehensive coverage to all aspects of research without getting bogged down in theory. The examples, end ...

A wonderful way for an adult to improve reading and spelling skills!
To Dolores Hiskes: I would like to thank you for your wonderful book! I am a 58 year old woman who learned to read without phonetics....the word recognition method. This method has not served me well either as a young student or as an older reader. I have always been a very slow reader and my spelling has been poor. I have always wanted to improve my reading skills but felt pretty ...

Right of the dial and on the money
Alec Foege has written a well put together monograph on the closely related demise of commercial radio and the increasing influence of the giant Clear Channel organization. Though certainly not the only culprit in the destruction of our most intimate medium, the arrogant buffoons from San Antonio were not only at the wheel of the bus that ran over radio; they also backed it over most of the ...

Liberating
Whether you buy into feng shui or not, this book could change how you look at what you own. I first encountered this gem of a book when it initially came out, and over the years I have bought multiple copies for friends and family members. The basic premise is simple but liberating: If you don't love it or it is not useful, get rid of it. I was so motivated after reading this book that ...

Even better than "Economics In One Lesson"
I think this is the best book out there to help quickly spread a basic understanding of economics and therefore how the world works. The knowledge and importance per page ratio is the highest I have ever read. Even better than Harry Browne's intro to economics from his famous first 80 pages of "How you can profit from the coming devaluation" . Pages 13 - 90 are the heart of the book. That is ...

A Life Saver!
If you are having problems with acne, this is the book for you. Everything finally makes sense. I love how the authors broke up the book and included every aspect that would influence acne. They explain everything so well. I learned more about acne from this book then talking with my dermatologist! I never realized how a little life changes could clear my acne. This is a must have!!

Overindulgence: a plague on our society.
I have found this book to be extremely practical in its application to everyday life, both as a parent and beginning-therapist. It provides readers simple ways to identify overindulgence and methods for avoiding or overcoming it. This is a must-have for parents who believe that children benefit from clear boundaries. WARNING: it may cause you to rethink your parenting style and increase ...

Once of Clancy's finest Works!
This is an incredible book. Mr. Clancy has managed to weave an extremely complex story of drugs, betrayal, murder, honor and ultimately justice. Woven throughout this book's pages are many great moral values, creating a truly positive reading experience. QUICK NOTE This book has high levels of violence (hey it's a military novel) and not a little swearing. (Comprable every two hours of reading ...

Excellent Introduction to Buddhism especially psychology
This book, written in a flowing conversational style, has 7 sections: an introduction, an extremely fine rendition of Buddhist psychology-aimed at human emotions, the "current situation" on cyclic existence/karma, the future-Buddhahood, the path to take, the past-brief Buddhist history; & conclusion. Overall, it's a very fine introduction to basic Buddhism & a terrific companion to Ven. ...

Beautifully human
This book is rich with geographical details of Wyoming and history of the Shoshone and Arapahoe people. O'Gara skillfully and lovingly describes the Wind River Valley like a sculptor shapes his beloved work. He is an excellent storyteller. What I loved most was O'Gara's deep attention to human relations, personal histories, and character. He always tells the tale with the human in the center. He ...

Dr. Stanley shares solid, biblical insight to enable people to effectively handle their trials, challenges, and troubles. When trials seem too great, sorrows too deep, and stress too prolonged, people wonder how they will be able to continue. They ask, "Can anything good come of this?" When God is involved the answer is always yes. The right response to every trial we face begins with faith in an all-knowing, all-powerful God who loves ...

Read to the end before writing a review.
I don't understand why anyone would write a review before finishing the book. Especially when the introduction states "you'll probably be tempted to try out the methods as you go, but I encourage you to read the entire book before using them with your children..." The book is a terrific tool in understanding how we parents unknowingly contribute to the "dance" of misbehavior, and you will laugh ...

Misled : (
I have not read this book enough to give a fair opinion on it. I will say though, I bought this book thinking that it was a brand new Q/A book about bible difficulties and it ended up not being that. This book is a republication of an older book titled, When the critics ask, a popular hand book on bible difficulties by Norman L. Geisler and Thomas Howe which was published in 1992. I checked ...
