Satire Ahead - Keep Tongue in Cheek
"I hope they have chocolate in hell. Why? Because that is where I am headed." (page 250, @2008 New American Library, 1st edition) The author reminds me of a prissy great aunty who is a teensy bit snobby, and you would just hate her, if you didn't love her to death because she is so wickedly funny. Sharp-eyed and glib-tongued, McCorkindale satirizes her leavetaking from both the city, and, ...

Tim Phillips is on the beat!
People may think it is cute and trendy to have a counterfeit handbag and may believe they are getting back at big pharmacy by buying their meds on-line. Sadly the damage done by counterfeit product traffic only hurts the consumer. Product counterfeiting is not just for luxury items anymore but can be found in just about every type and grade of consumer good from razor blades to shampoo to peanut ...

An important, life-changing book
The first time I went to the grocery store after finishing this book, I found myself unable to buy formerly favorite products. The documentation of the way food is altered, adjusted, shaped, and -- yes -- adulterated is both convincing and habit-changing. Bee Wilson takes a subject that could easily be dull and turns it into a fascinating history of the industrialization of the food supply. ...

As a budding gold coin collector, this book is a must have. Currently, I have 4 gold coins in my collection. Two have been graded and are genuine specimens, one was returned counterfeit, and one I have yet to send in. Now, I have a guide to help me screen my coins. The picture quality alone of the coins shown in this book makes it a buy. They are most helpful in showing you what to look for. ...

BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN ON MONEY, POWER AND POLITICS OF COLLEGE SPORTS
This book is poignant, shocking, and true. I've read over a dozen books on the problems of college athletes and college athletics and all the hypocrisy and failed attempts to solve these problems. What makes this book so fascinating is that it's not a dry study or philosophical discussion. This book is first-hand information. The author actually was a superlative football player at Notre ...

Must Reading.
I worked in the mental health-social service industry for many years. From the beginning it was impressed upon me that clients without economic value to the agency get booted out the door. And on numerous occasions I observed how families were broken apart because the government will spend money on professionals but wont spend money for a motel and a few meals or a car repair. On the ...

Phenominally written and argued
As a former member of the Charismatic movement, I belived that the doctrines of the charismatic movement were "obviously" Biblical and that the issue was black-and-white, and that there were few if any legitimate reasons to agree with cessationism or to question the basic tenents of the charismatic movement. If this describes you, think again! After reading this book, I will never again be able ...

Whoa - What a Book!
Short commentary from an extremely satisfied reader. I read this book in 1982 or so during a Biblical research class. The Challenging Counterfeit, in my opinion at least, has to be the best book of it's kind. It is most descriptive and detailed. Authored obviously by a person who has been there and survived well enough intact to write about it. Should you ever decide you want to dabble in ...

A Regency Romance with a Royal Navy Connection
Elizabeth Mansfield's regencies are usually enjoyable and this one is no exception. Camilla, Countess of Wyckfield lives with her late husband's family until she tires of her sister-in-laws sermons. My favourite character in the book is Pippa, Camilla's daughter, who befriends Thomas one of the footmen.

A MUST FOR PURCHASERS OF ANCIENT COINS
For a long time there was considerable confusion about the authenticity of ancient coins. While considerable quantities have been found in the former ancient sites, and they have been collected since ancient times, few works were available to help the collector distinguish between the actual ancient works and fakes and copies made after. Works that are available are hard to find, usually ...

More than most can handle
Spady is ahead of his time and could have saved us from the crisis our children now face. We've reduced "educated" to a simple skill set and now children are learning to hate learning. If you are interested in developing a population capable of doing more than jumping through academic books, this book is for you.
