Shorter Christian Prayer: The Four-Week Psalter of the Liturgy of the Hours Containing Morning Prayer and ...13 reviews

Catholic Book Publishing Company, 1999

Superb condensation of Divine Office prayers and readings
Shorter Christian Prayer is a slim, pocket size version of the Divine Office or Liturgy of the Hours for Roman Catholics. It is perfect for travel, or if you want the simplest form of getting into one or more of the "hours" of prayer. It has the 4-week Morning and Evening Prayers & Psalms (150), and the standard one week cycle of Night Prayer. It does not have the Liturgy of the Hours for the ...

What Terrorists Want: Understanding the Enemy, Containing the Threat17 reviews
Louise Richardson

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2007

Indispensable History and Much Sage Advice
Using as her canvas, the history of terrorism, including the 100 years of terrorism in her own country of Ireland, this author paints a profoundly realistic picture of what terrorism is and of what it is not; of how to face and fight it smartly and courageously and how to do so incompetently, cowardly and without regard for the lessons of history. Here in one book is more history on ...

George Gamow

Cambridge University Press (Canto Imprint), 1993

An alltime favorite!
A lovely reprinted edition of a peral from Gamow. The original edition has been out of print for a number of years. This 1993 edition has added commentary and a fascinating bio of Gamow. He was born in Odessa, in what was then Russia, --before the Soviet Union. The story of his escape to the West is straight out of a thriller. Only it is real! Gamow was referred to by a journalist, some time ... 		  
  







  
  
The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments: Revised Standard Version/Catholic Edition Blue45 reviews
Catholic Biblical Association of Great B

Ignatius Press, 1994

The Bible of Catholic Scholars
I was drawn to this edition of the Ignatius Bible after purchasing a hardback edition. I use this as a spare: one for the car and for for the desk. I love both of my RSV Catholic Editions because they're so much better of a translation than the USCCB's NAB. Take, for example, (The Gospel according to) Luke 1:28, which is one of the Scriptural sources of the "Hail Mary" prayer. The Ignatius ... 		  
  







  
  
Hal Leonard Pocket Rhyming Dictionary: A Concise and User-Friendly Resource Containing Nearly 30,000 Words3 reviews
Jana Ranson

Hal Leonard, 2003

Very user-friendly
This is the only reference tool I really need as a songwriter. It's helpful when you're looking for that last line to wrap up a tune. I like how it's organized phonetically, & by word endings--you don't have to waste a lot of time finding what you need. For its size and price, it's been incredibly useful. 		  
  







  
  
Irreducible Mind: Toward a Psychology for the 21st Century, With CD containing F. W. H. Myers's hard-to-find ...3 reviews
Edward F. Kelly, Emily Williams Kelly, ...

Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc., 2006

Brilliantly Insightful and Destined to be an Instant Classic
I think that it was Carl Sagan who said, "You want to be open-minded, but not so open-minded that your brains fall out." This marvelous book shows that open-mindedness is entirely compatible with scientific rigor. For the last century, the vast majority psychologists, psychiatrists and neuroscientists have believed that thoughts, emotions and consciousness are the product of physical processes ...

There are many forms of prayer. This little book provides the kick-start, spiritually, for more formal and regular prayer-living. Centered on the psalms and holy scripture, any Christian or person interested in Christian prayer life can gain much for a small dollar investment. By one and get one for your closest friend. Pray together! 		  
  







  
  
Complete Pattern Library: With a CD Containing 100 Classic Patterns You Can Color, Alter, Scale and Print8 reviews
Keith Hagan

Harry N. Abrams, 2005

good for illustrators
First of all - the book DOES contain LAYERED, VECTOR images. Next - many of the items are traditional and therefore you will not be in violation of anyone's rights if you use the material judiciously. The author states that "a number of the patterns included are traditional and can be seen in many sources" Finally - there is plenty of raw material for creatives here. I came to Amazon today ... 		  
  







  
  
Yoga Philosophy of Patanjali: Containing His Yoga Aphorisms with Vyasa's Commentary in Sanskrit and a ...7 reviews
Swami Hariharananda Aranya

State University of New York Press, 1983

The Book on Yoga and Samkhya
For both theoretical and practical study of Yoga Sutras and Samkhya philosophy this is the book to buy, read and keep reading. I don't know of any book on Patanjali's Yoga and Samkhya that comes even near the quality of Hariharananda's book! It has the original texts of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras and Vyasa's commentary in both Sanskrit and English and Swami Hariharananda's own Commentary translated ...

How to Say It and Write It Correctly NOW: The Ultimate Reference Book, Containing Practical Grammar, ...3 reviews
Santo J. Aurelio

Synergy Books, 2005

Words Can Be Fun
This is one of the few fact-filled books that is easy, and FUN, to read. Dr. Aurelio has a big smile on the cover, very warm and friendly for a Ph.D., and in an interview with our local public radio station, he came across the same way---with local trivia about his home area around Boston, and even the meaning of some common baseball words (in honor of the Boston Red Sox, who were getting their ... 		  
  







  
  
Star Myths of the Greeks and Romans: A Sourcebook Containing "The Constellations" of Pseudo-Eratosthenes and ...3 reviews

Phanes Press, 1997

An excellent translation, with one big flaw
This book serves very well as a translation and commentary for the Catasterismi of Pseudo-Eratosthenes and the Poeticon Astronomicon of Hyginus. I would recommend this book to the scholar and archeoastronomer. However, reading from the text, it is clear that this book is primarily a labor of translation rather than Astronomy. In order to identify stars, Condos compared the texts of ...
