Preparation for Death: Considerations on Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell5 reviews
St. Alfonsus Liguori

T A N Books & Publishers, 1982

a catholic classic
This is the best catholic book ever written on preparing for death. The scholarship in this book is enormous. The book shows us that we are here to prepare our souls for heaven. The author uses the most logical and forceful arguments to show us this is the case. Point by point, he shows us why we are on earth, the vanity of life and the distractions people attend to instead of working to save ... 		  
  







  
  
Choosing Assisted Reproduction: Social, Emotional & Ethical Considerations10 reviews
Susan Cooper, Ellen Sarasohn Glazer

Perspectives Press (IN), 1998

Don't start infertility treatment until you read this!
I can't believe that anyone let me start the process of infertility treatment (beyond the clomid stage) without telling me to read this. I found it on my own when having to decide whether my only chance to have a child, egg donation, was right for my husband and myself. I only WISH someone had told me about it sooner. It would have helped me think about all of "this" in a not so crazy ...

The Magic in You!23 reviews
Sally H Taylor

Outskirts Press, 2007

Incredibly positive message for children
Sally H. Taylor's first children's picture book, The Magic in You!, is an enchanting introduction to an author with volumes of talent. The story tells of a little flower that grows by the roadside. The flower's self-confidence wanes after one of her shiny petals is eaten by a Billy goat, and dims even further when a car runs over one of her leaves. Depressed and lonely, the flower is visited by a ... 		  
  







  
  
What Makes Biology Unique?: Considerations on the Autonomy of a Scientific Discipline10 reviews
Ernst Mayr

Cambridge University Press, 2004

An excellent overview of a great man's thoughts on his field
After more than three-quarters of a century as an evolutionary biologist, Ernst Mayr offers us, in his final book, his thoughts spanning the most important issues he's struggled with over his career. This is as much a book on the philosophy of science as on particular scientific issues within biology. Of special interest are Mayr's thoughts on how biology differs from other physical sciences ... 		  
  







  
  
Walking in Victory: Experiencing the power of your identity in Christ15 reviews
Dennis McCallum

Xenos Publishing, 2002

Secondary companion to one of the Bible's favorite teachings
I really like this author's body of work. I've read all his non-fiction. He's very objective and can sound a little bit like notes from a lecture. But it is also emotionally productive, without the bells and whistles, unlike many Christian authors, and has genuine feeling and vulerability to appeal to anyone's subjective sensibilities. This book is my favorite from this author. He wrote that ... 		  
  







  
  
Twelve Words: Considerations for a Clear and Balanced Day6 reviews
eQuanimiti joy

Hobblebush Books, 2004

A quietly powerful book
Each time I return to one of the twelve words from the poem "Considerations", I find a new insight to savor, to linger on. And I enjoy the state of calmness I feel in myself and around me. The Twelve Words are always a pleasure to explore. 		  
  







  
  
Considerations on the Assassination of Gérard Lebovici4 reviews
Guy Debord

TamTam Books, 2001

Blurb from Richard Hell
"It cannot be said too often and it's never said enough that the mass news-media have low-to-no standards of accuracy, whether in relatively minor or peripheral areas of their reporting where their interests may not be obviously at stake (except in that it's in their interest not to go to the expense of bothering to check facts, and to conceal this) or in the larger matters where their prejudices ... 		  
  







  
  
Corporate Divestitures: A Mergers and Acquisitions Best Practices Guide7 reviews
William J. Gole, Paul J. Hilger

Wiley, 2008

Substance Over Form
This is great guide for people interested in executing a successful transaction. It's not your typical M&A book that is filled with professorial theories and indecipherable MBA lingo. This is for people who need to make it happen. Its step-by-step approach provides clarity and confidence to those who look to turn theories into action. 		  
  







  
  
Organic Disciplemaking: Mentoring Others Into Spiritual Maturity And Leadership20 reviews

Touch Publications, 2006

A Practical and Comprehensive Resource
In the long tradition of The Lost Art of Disciple Making, Multiplying Disciples, and Disciples Are Made, Not Born, Organic Disciplemaking: How to promote Christian leadership development through personal relationships, biblical discipleship, mentoring, and Christian community is designed to do more than tell about the need for making disciples of Jesus. This is a book that painstakingly provides ... 		  
  







  
  
Considerations on France3 reviews
Joseph Marie Maistre

McGill-Queen's University Press, 1974

A Critique of Modernity.
Joseph de Maistre is one of the harshest counter-revolutionary critics of the French Revolution. He calls for a return to traditional Catholicism and the Restoration of the monarchy. The book _Considerations on France_ takes a look at his arguments for that tradition and his understanding of the dark side of human existence through his unique Christian perspective. De Maistre was both a ...

Clinical Considerations, Surgery of the Intracranial Aneurysms and Results (Microneurosurgery)3 reviews
Mahmut Yasargil

Thieme Medical Publishers, 1984

A fundamental text-book
MG Yasargil is the father of miconeurosurgery and, in my opinion still one of the leading sources from whom to learn, not just "the tricks", but equally, "the trade" itself. His trans-sulcus approach to intra-parenchymatous tumors provides for good exposure with less surgical trauma. Dr. Yasargils experience and his passion for the field comes through in his writing. Though this may not be the ...

Harper San Francisco, 1996

Great gift for Father's Day
I enjoyed reading and re-reading this inspirational book of short thoughts for fathers. This book is a very easy read, its advice and insights make complete sense. This books supports the values that everyone, not just fathers, should ascribe to 		  
  







  
  
Wilson: A Consideration of the Sources4 reviews
David Mamet

Faber & Faber, 2000

Twisted meta-history
If you locked Vladimir Nabokov's "Pale Fire" and Mark Z. Danielewski's "House of Leaves" in a dark room together, the resulting love child might resemble David Mamet's "Wilson: A Consideration of the Sources." This quirky, twisted "novel" takes a look at literature, pop culture, and... oh, come on, no one can tell. Imagine a future where the literary history of the world has been put on the ...

Seeding Your Soul: Six Considerations for Spiritual Growth3 reviews
Dianne R. Costanzo

Bolchazy-Carducci Publishers, 2005

This book changed my life
I was raised in the Christian religion, but stopped attending church at age 13. In the last ten years, I've read lots of spirituality books--mainly Buddhist or Buddhist-inspired--by Pema Chodron, Caroline Myss, Thich Nhat Hanh, Natalie Goldberg, and others. I usually shy away from "Christian" books, but Seeding Your Soul is so much more than that, perhaps because the author is trained in Aikido ... 		  
  







  
  
Considerations of persistence and security in Choices, an object-oriented operating system (Tapestry ...2 reviews
Roy Harold Campbell

Dept. of Computer Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 1991

The World Reduced to Grass and Insects
This book attempts to conceptualize the idea of a full scale nuclear exchange between the cold war superpowers, since the idea itself is now "unthinkable". To explore this lack of understanding the author first explains in detail the immediate and long lasting effects of full scale nuclear war. Then, he comments on the situation, making a bid for sanity in an insane situation. The author believes ... 		  
  







  
  
Due Considerations: Essays and Criticism3 reviews
John Updike

Knopf, 2007

The Master Speaks
The master speaks in this latest collection of what Updike calls his freelancing. What a pleasure to survey literature from his perspective. Beautiful language, fascinating views of technique in others' writings, and brilliant, poignant comments on so many times and places in the American experience. Like a modern day Hawthorne, or a latter day Edmund Wilson, we hear the master novelist review ... 		  
  







  
  
Congenital diseases of the heart: Clinical-physiologic considerations in diagnosis and management2 reviews
Abraham M Rudolph

Year Book Medical Publishers, 1974

Aged, but not outdated
Although it doesn't contain the latest developments in the field of pediatric cardiology, it isn't outdated. It doesn't try to propose the definitive treatment modality to the various heart abnormalities encountered in children, but explicitly explains various aspects of the disorder. Dr. Rudolph begins by explaining the physiology of the fetus, the neonate and the child, to help the reader ...
