Roger Love

Your Coach in a Box, 2005

Amazing!!!
I have been doing the daily exercises for slightly more then a month and they help tremendously! All the information Roger Love gives you in all of the CDs is all you need to understand how Vocal Power really works. The only thing thats missing is personal coaching, but thats only if you want further advancement or feel like you need it. Recommend it to anyone who wants to develop charisma, ...

Patrick Slattery, Dana Rapp

Allyn & Bacon, 2002

Most people would die sooner than think -- in fact they do so.~Bertrand Russell
Philosophy grounded in the real world and in the art world. I have taken this professor's class and what he does in his class and in this book is a rare thing. He examines our society's assumptions and the end result of its actions honestly.

Real Family Values: Leading Your Family into the 21st Century with Clarity and Conviction

Robert Lewis

Multnomah Books, 2000

Pretty good read, a quality book
There is much about this book that I really liked, but I will find it difficult to highly recommend it to others because of its length and complexity to read. That doesn't mean that I wouldn't suggest it to a serious reader who is looking for an excellent book on how to better prepare their family for the spiritual chaos of the world - Lewis does a very good job of confronting several very ...

Conviction Without Compromise: Standing Strong in the Core Beliefs of the Christian Faith

3 reviews
Norman Geisler, Ron Rhodes

Harvest House Publishers, 2008

Norman Geislerr Does It Again!
Conviction Without Compromise is new (2008) and a great one-volume treatise on the Christian faith. The book categorizes the doctrines of salvation, revelation, and interpretation. Dr. Geisler and his co-author, Dr. Ron Rhodes, are of the same ilk and those who have read their books (numbering more than 100) will find this book impelling and thoughtful. It is written for the layman and ...

Norma McCorvey, Gary Thomas

Thomas Nelson Inc, 1998

Straight Talk About Abortion
I just finished reading the book "Won by Love" and highly recommend it to all. In fact, it was a quick read because I didn't want to put it down once I started it! The book reflects Norma McCorvey's own personality -- frank, engaging, and down to earth. She tells it straight, both regarding her conversion to Christianity and her involvement in the abortion industry prior to that. For those ...

Maureen McKade

Berkley, 2005

Excellent Romantic suspense!
This is my first time reading this writer and I must say I was wonderfully surprised and impressed. It was a well written romance and a true who done it. I loved it and I am planning to get back copies of this writer earlier writings.

Conviction

3 reviews
Taylor Mali

Words Worth Ink & The Wordsmith Press, 2003

Mali's writing and his voice complement each other well
Several friends with whom I have shared "Conviction" insisted that Taylor Mali must be a stand-up comedian because of the track "Totally Like Whatever" and his poem about proofreading. Then I let them listen to the profoundness that he instills in poems about teaching, his father's key-labeling habit and an old family dog named "Winchester," and they tilt their heads to the side and nod. Mali ...

Previous Convictions: Assignments from Here and There

1 review
A.A. Gill

Simon & Schuster, 2008

Classic Gill
If you are, as I am, a confirmed despiser of Celine Dion, Siegfried and Roy, and Las Vegas in general, you'll love the tone and humor of this book. I had to read his chapter on Las Vegas twice. Gill's description of Dion's personal theater at Caesar's and her over-rehearsed, mock-sincere act, not to mention the vicious rapier-skewering of the German animal-act duo, are spot on. I have to say ...

The Conviction of Richard Nixon: The Untold Story of the Frost/Nixon Interviews

7 reviews
James Jr Reston

Three Rivers Press, 2008

Gripping slice of history
I saw the wonderful play "Frost/Nixon," which is based on this book, and I loved it - very funny, totally compelling, with several great moments of pure theater. But the book is more satisfying, on many levels. For one, it's just a great story -- Reston knows how to keep your attention, and the quest to nail Nixon on camera is told like a courtroom thriller: will they or won't they convict him? ...

Beyond Belief to Convictions (Beyond Belief Campaign)

5 reviews
Josh D. McDowell, Bob Hostetler, ...

Tyndale House Publishers, 2002

Why We Believe and Why It Matters
Over the years, Josh McDowell has become well known for his logical and factual arguments for the Christian faith. In this book, he takes his work to the next level. The premise of this book is clear. In an age of relativism, we are loosing the youth of today because they don't believe in truth any more. Many believe that Christianity is just one acceptable way out of many and Jesus was a good ...

Convictions: A Prosecutor's Battles Against Mafia Killers, Drug Kingpins, and Enron Thieves

4 reviews
John Kroger

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2008

Unputdownable
"Unputdownable" is an adjective normally used to describe potboilers, not non-fiction books written by attorneys about their cases. Yet once you start reading Convictions, by John Kroger, it's impossible to put it down. With intelligence, insight, candor and a healthy dose of self-criticism, the former assistant US Attorney tells stories of chasing mobsters, fighting (and losing) the "war on ...

The Courage of Their Convictions: Sixteen Americans Who Fought Their Way to the Supreme Court

12 reviews
Peter Irons

Penguin (Non-Classics), 1990

The Courage of Their Convictions: Sixteen Americans
This was a fantastic book! People may know about some Supreme Court decisions and its impact but I do not think people understand why such important cases were brought before the Supreme Court. We never learn in school who these people were, (they are everyday people) and exactly how much courage and determination it takes to fight your case to the Supreme Court (after all I think S.C hears ...

Conviction: A Novel

54 reviews
Richard North Patterson

Ballantine Books, 2005

Hard to review without giving away the end, but I'll do my best
After I finished Patterson's last book on gun control (Balance of Power) and felt like I had been attending a lecture, I wasn't sure I would read any more of his books. I had always liked his legals thrillers, but I didn't like the preachy quality in Balance of Power. I was pleasantly surprised by the first 1/2 to 2/3 of Conviction. Although it's a derisive issue - death penalty - and there is ...

Dead Ends: The Pursuit, Conviction and Execution of Female Serial Killer Aileen Wuornos, the Damsel of Death ...

4 reviews
Michael Reynolds

St. Martin's True Crime, 2004

Not Great Literature, But A Page-Turner
It seems peculiar that Reynolds' 1992 account of the life and crimes of Aileen Wuornos has not been promoted in conjunction with the Oscar-winning film MONSTER, which was based on Wuornos's life. Perhaps the substantial liberties which the screenplay takes with the facts are the reason. MONSTER is a work of art, whereas DEAD ENDS is a fast-paced factual presentation of the crimes. Ty, Lee's ...

Being Vegan: Living With Conscience, Conviction, and Compassion

22 reviews
Joanne Stepaniak

Lowell House, 2000

Essential for the Vegan Bookshelf
I loved this book! I thought it was very well written and had some very good commonsensical advice. While I'm not an animal rights person (more an "animal welfare and good/responsible care") most of the rest of the philosphy/ethics makes good sence after reading the book. Ms. Stepaniak provides practical answers to many issues that might come up when someone decides to adopt a Vegan lifestyle. ...
