hysterial and realistic
This book was SO funny!! Alexa is at times ridiculous and absurd-which is what makes her such a realistic and believable character (which almost NEVER happens in chick lit!). Sometimes (more often than not, actually) she does the wrong thing. But you know what? So do I. Everybody does, basically. And I loved that she was unafraid to be who she was: flawed, imperfect, funny, paranoid, silly, ...

the absolute best of it's kind
I read this book in a desperate attempt to alleviate the chronic insomnia that had plauged me since the birth of my daughter. It was the only book of it's kind (I purchased two others) that made me feel genuine hopefulness about my condition. Mr. Wiedman does not make light of insomnia - to the contrary, he sincerely understands what you are going through. This man has been through some truly ...

Read this book!
This is a delightful book. It has a chatty, breezy, easy-to-read style (I am reminded of the style of a good review in the New York Times Book Review). It is interesting, educational, persuasively argued, and thought-provoking. After reading this book, I felt like I had learned some interesting things about some interesting people, and I wanted to know more. At times, it can be clever or ...

A unique contribution to eating disorders literature
For 10 years I was lost in the world of my eating disorder and then in 1988, I met Viola Fodor, a psychotherapist. She spoke to me about many things, such as true self, inner wisdom, meaning in life. What she told me helped me to turn my life around and heal completely from my eating problem. She's now encapsulated the essence of her teachings in this remarkable book, which doesn't talk about ...

a new approach to Menander
The editors wanted to make the comic drama come alive for a new audience....the goal was to use the complete Dyskolos (Grouch) and reconstruct the fragments of survivng plays by using as models copies by Terence and Plautus and fragments of other plays by Menander to give the sense of what New Comedy was and how it influenced the comedy of generations to come.
Desperately Seeking Paradise: Journeys of a Sceptical Muslim

A very welcome book!
At long last, a book that presents the Islam of the optimistic, socially compassionate critical thinker! I'd always known that Islam was not the malicious, vengeful, monolithic bloc that it is often seen to be in the West, but I now know much more about what it IS like, at least through Sardar's eyes -- he illustrates its rich diversity of thought and practice, past and present, and teases out ...

One of the finest entrepreneurial how-to books ever written. Buy this book right now.
I am shocked that anyone could have rated "What Rich People Know" anything less than FIVE STARS. As a three-time published author and owner of two successful businesses that I started from the ground up, I can speak from personal experience that this book is essential reading for all entrepreneurs. True: it is not a -how-to-get-rich-quick book (which is what a lot of critics were probably ...

Pop culture criticism at its best!
Whether you're a devotee or detractor of the lady in question, "Desperately Seeking Madonna" never fails to entertain (and even educate). Sexton features an impressive array of contributors (where else can you find essays by both Camille Paglia and Henry Rollins?) and himself uses Madonna as a springboard for such thought-provoking questions as "does our culture need to pigeonhole women in order ...

Invites you to think... and participate
The author has done a good job into proposing ways we don't have to remain a passive TV viewer giving ideas of the way we can make out TV programming better. The audience is what TV companies need, so we must decide what we want to see and how we want to see it. If you're interested in reading what audiences can do, this is a great starting point.

Desperately Seeking Dad: Love Inspired #91
Chief Mitchell Donovan isn't the father of Emilie, but Anne Morden believes he is. Anne has to get Mitch's signature to adopt Emilie, and you guest it, they fall in love. Although we expect it, it is a good book, becaues it is typical. I love it. I also like Susan Fox, Essie Summers, Helen Brooks, Jessica Steele, Rebecca Winters, Eva Rutland, and Diana Palmer for the same reasons. PS I stop ...

Dustin Harp
Lexington Books
, 2007
Desperately Seeking Women Readers considers explicitly named women's pages in U.S. newspapers to understand how the newspaper industry has constructed women readers. Special pages for women developed in the 1890s but by the 1960s had disappeared. The book investigates the creation and collapse of these pages before considering contemporary case studies to articulate why newspapers during the 1990s recreated sex-specific pages. The author argues ...
