Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary (Laminated Cover) (Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary ... 65 reviews
Merriam-Webster
Merriam-Webster, 2003
The Best on the Market
Nobody puts out a better dictionary than Merriam-Webster. The Collegiate is my pick because one of my hobbies is the Over-50 Spelling Bee, and this dictionary is the reference source for that competition. The Elementary edition is what I use in my classroom. The Unabridged is what I subscribe to on the Web. I wouldn't buy any other company's dictionary because this book and its publisher can ...

Hero Under Cover (Silhouette Intimate Moments)4 reviews
Suzanne Brockmann
HQN Books, 2008
Romantic mystery with great twists!
I don't want to give it all away. Basically, a doctor is called in to authenticate a Native American "death mask" While she is attending the piece, she is assigned an agent to act as bodyguard. Their personalities are oil and water. But when serious murder attempt is tried against the doc, more than a mystery starts to heat up. Swift moving story with sharp 3-D characters.

Nothing to Lose (Jack Reacher, No. 12) 270 reviews
Lee Child
Delacorte Press, 2008
Great book!
Um . . . I don't usually argue with everyday reviewers but have to say that I sincerely believe that anyone who says he or she doesn't like this book is totally wacked. It's a fantastic read. Not much more to say than that. I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys highly atmospheric intrigue.

Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning 346 reviews
Jonah Goldberg
Doubleday, 2008
Own it Liberals
Ok Fascist is a harsh word but read how it is defined in the book. Next notice that as someone that supports individual freedom and responsibility the author sees it as a bad thing. This extensive history gives case after case of the growth of liberal fascism and gives anecdotes that liberals say are goals and are positive. So rather than have flame wars go ahead liberals and be proud that ...

Marvel Books, 2008
Roland and his ka-tet: part 2.
The folks behind this project are determined to give readers the "back story" to how Roland became the man we first meet following the dark man across the desert. The first release in this series relied on the story from "Wizard and Glass", but now the authors are on their own. From this book on, there are no more tales from Stephen King's work to guide them, only hints here and there that don't ...

Truly the missing manual
You'll miss most of the fun with the IPhone without this manual. David Pogue provides a thorough review of all the features, tips, and tricks with the IPhone. This manual is a must for any IPhone owner. A feature that I would have never found without Pogue's instruction is the double click on the home button to instantly go to "favorites" on the phone list.

From Hell - New Cover Edition95 reviews
Alan Moore, Eddie Campbell
Top Shelf Productions, 2000
A masterpiece! What did you expect me to say?
Thick as a phone-book and often difficult to navigate. 'From Hell' is a comic that demands a lot from the reader and not is possible to finish over a single visit at the restroom. But it will yet be a highly rewarding experience for whoever who dares to give it a try.
In one of his most ambitious works Alan Moore gives his version of the still unsolved crimes of Jack The Ripper. Stories of the ...

Thanks But No Thanks: The Voter's Guide to Sarah Palin22 reviews
Sue Katz
Harvard Perspectives Press (Harvard Perspectives in Current Affairs), 2008
BUY THIS BOOK INSTEAD OF GAWKING AT PALIN
I was fortunate to receive an advance copy of Sue Katz's Thanks, But No Thanks: A Voter's Guide to Sarah Palin. Wow! Not only is this book well-researched, well-written and entertaining, it makes it perfectly clear that Americans have taken their eye off the ball while they gawk at Sarah Palin's pompoms. Sue Katz's writing is feisty and informative--she dissects Palin's belief that the war in ...

Saturn's Children 26 reviews
Charles Stross
Ace Hardcover, 2008
Ignore the all the reviews posted by Americans
This is one hell of an entertaining and thought provoking book. Again, the book is almost entirely centred on a female character - one Freya Nakamachi - Baroque and Renaissance musician, professional concubine and kick-arse cybernetic dame! (you gotta be interested after a resumé like that!?) One of his best characters since Reeve in "Glasshouse" and Sue, the Lesbian Scottish cop in "Halting ...

Cover Letter Magic: Trade Secrets of Professional Resume Writers (Cover Letter Magic)8 reviews
Wendy S. Enelow, Louise Kursmark
JIST Works, 2006
Adapted for the times
As an IT professional, I found this book packed with good information. The overall style is updated and compatible with the times, and the many examples are creative and varied. Too many "cover letters" cling to the old school of "Enclosed Please Find" formality of another era. In these times, it's equally important to communicate some idea of your style and personality to give an employer a more ...

How to Land a Top-Paying Federal Job: Your Complete Guide to Opportunities, Internships, Resumes and Cover ...12 reviews
Lily Whiteman
AMACOM, 2008
Great Book for Federal Government Employment
I highly recommend this book. Lily Whiteman's book is to Federal employment what John Lucht's classic "Rites of Passage at $100K to $1M+" is to private sector employment. Her book explodes the many myths about Federal government employment, and explains in a straightforward manner (1) how to research great Federal work opportunities, (2) how to land great Federal jobs, (3) how to negotiate ...

I bought this book because it was endorsed by our pastor. He read some and I was really interested. I didn't regret that I bought this book because it is really powerful. I love the book and I learned a lot from it.

Stanton T. Friedman
New Page Books, 2008
Good reading. Buy to use as a resource
Probably your best bargain in the ufo category written by a physicist once employed (through civilian contractors) by the Air Force. Despite what the nay-sayers have written here, this is your best buy on the subject, from a no-nonsense researcher.
Mr. Friedman summarizes the best cases, though providing many resources for you to look up on your own. He explains in detail the fallacies of ...

Great item reasonable price
I just loaded the software and began to use the product today. I was a little uneasy because of some of the comments that I had read about the Bondi reader especially because my system met only the minimum memory requirement. The reader worked great. It was easly to install, good search features and displayed the pages nicely. I wish it had more options for printing. When you print the whole ...
