The Hardys continue to impress and inspire
I read this book as soon as it came out, and things in the career of the Hardy Boyz has changed a lot since then. However, this book was fabulous. I loved learning more about them, their matches, their family and their career. I think it's a great book and any wrestling fan needs to read this. Even if you aren't a wrestling fan this book might turn you onto wrestling.

Master the Police Officer Exam, 17th edition (Police Officer)

5 reviews
Steinberg

Arco, 2005

In a class of its own
I closely scrutinized a half dozen cop test prep books and purchased another besides this one. 'Master the Police Officer Exam' is significantly above the others. Its greatest strength is that it seems to be written by someone who knows specifically about cop tests- not just tests in general. There is above and beyond detailed information not just on the many aspects and types of written exams, ...

This book helped out a lot. It was exactly the same format at the actual test.

The DailyCandy Lexicon: Words That Don't Exist But Should

Editors of Daily Candy

Virgin Books, 2008

Hysterical Book
I knew anything that came from Daily Candy was going to be funny, but I just didn't know how funny until I sat and read the book in one sitting. Every word in this book should be a real word. I use "phone zit" all the time now. If you need a good laugh, buy this book.

The Joy Luck Club

Amy Tan

Vintage, 1991

A Book Remembered After 13 Years
The Joy Luck Club had stayed with me all these years even when I examine my own personal life in the current time. I had read the book when I was in the seventh grade and had a remarkable teacher. She was Mrs. Lattimer (and yes, she was white), a Harvard graduate teaching at an impoverished neighborhood from where I used to grow up. Sometimes, I wondered why she never taught at one of the more ...

Police Officer Examination Preparation Guide: The Path of the Warrior (Cliffs Test Prep)

Larry F. Jetmore

Cliffs Notes, 1994

Complete Information
This book contains exactly what it says it does. The general info is presented in an interesting way so it makes for an easy and informative read. I'm not sure how useful test preps are for police exams as the exams test a general approach to policing rather than specific knowledge. The author's comments for each answer profide information about what approach to take and what things to ...

Protocol: How Control Exists after Decentralization (Leonardo Books)

5 reviews
Alexander R. Galloway

The MIT Press, 2006

A must-have if you're interested in the art, tech, or culture of networks
Galloway is a triple threat: he's fluent in the esoteric dialects of poststructuralist theory, Internet geekspeak, and network aesthetics. There are plenty of books that try to tackle the art and politics of the Internet age from one of these angles, and a handful that try two--but if you're looking for a three-dimensional treatment of the subject, this is the book for you. Protocol's ...

Tales of the Cryptids: Mysterious Creatures That May or May Not Exist (Darby Creek Publishing)

Kelly Milner Halls, Rick Spears, ...

Darby Creek Publishing, 2006

Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!
I am always on the prowl for books that will excite my eight-year-old sons, particularly if they don't have to do with underpants or wizards. With apologies to Dav Pilkey and J.K. Rowling, both of whom write fantastic books, I need a little variety. And so I was ecstatic to find TALES OF THE CRYPTIDS on the new non-fiction shelf in the library children's room. So ecstatic, in fact, that I kept ...

God: The Failed Hypothesis. How Science Shows That God Does Not Exist

142 reviews
Victor J. Stenger

Prometheus Books, 2008

Proves the case!
Most reviewers of Stenger's "God: The Failed Hypothesis" fail to recognize the unique contribution he has made to the logic of the debate. The methodology he uses is different from most of the arguments against God, and it is important to understand this, because his book is a major step forward on this topic. Stenger basically sets out to prove a negative. Although many light-thinking ...

H. Edward Wesemann

AuthorHouse, 2004

Not Just For Law Firms . . . And Long Overdue
This is a great read and a fabulous guidebook to overcoming the ingrained biases in your thinking and addressing those seemingly impossible problems and tough issues inherent in managing a professional firm. The author, Ed Wesemann, manages to delightfully provoke the reader's thinking: "most firms would be more profitable if they fired 80 percent of their clients," and "you can't get anything ...

Let's Review: Global History and Geography (Barron's Review
I am a 10th grade World History teacher in California. This book is the best resource I own. It not only helps the students, but allows me the chance to review prior to lectures and activities. It is must for any world history or global history student or teacher.

Letter To A Man In The Fire: Does God Exist And Does He Care

6 reviews
Reynolds Price

Scribner, 2000

A Good Guide
As one who watched his own father, a retired minister, die a horrible, lingering death this past year after 15-year battles with cancer, heart disease and diabetes, I found Mr. Price's "Letter" to be both thought-provoking and helpful in my own search for answers to the questions posed in the book's title -- more helpful than my re-readings of Ecclesiastes and Job were. No one in this life, ...

How Does Anyone Know God Exists? (Tough Questions)
Garry Poole

Zondervan, 2003

This revised edition of the Tough Questions series of small group curriculum faces head-on the difficult and challenging questions seekers ask about the Christian faith.

Thought to Exist in the Wild: Awakening from the Nightmare of Zoos

5 reviews
Derrick Jensen

NoVoice Unheard, 2007

Piercing, Beautifully Illustrated Attack on Zoos
One need only read the title to know that this handsome book is not a celebration of zoos. It is, rather, a full frontal attack on them. Jensen provides a poetic text written from the heart, and while his bibliography excludes some important writings on zoos, his criticisms are piercing. "Zoos are about power," he says, meaning our power over animals and our control over nature (or at least the ...

God Doesn't Believe in Atheists: Proof That the Atheist Doesn't Exist

25 reviews
Ray Comfort

Bridge-Logos Publishers, 1993

Great book that proves God
This book is incredible. I take that back, Comfort just lays the truth out in the best way that it can be laid out, because athiests will always have excuses. Comfort tackles many excuses atheists use and proves them wrong. Great book

Answering the New Atheism: Dismantling Dawkins' Case Against God

15 reviews

Emmaus Road Publishing, 2008

The Best Book Against the New Atheists
I must admit that I am rather excited to finally be reviewing this book since it's taken me some time to actually find it. I searched everywhere at my local book stores in hopes to get a glimpse and I finally had to resort to buying it here on Amazon. Needless to say, it was worth the wait and the hassle. In the short sum of 151 pages, "Answering the New Atheism" lives up to its title. As a ...

20 Compelling Evidences That God Exists: Discover Why Believing In God Makes So Much Sense

7 reviews
Kenneth D. Boa, Robert M., Jr. Bowman

David C. Cook, 2005

Grips your interest and provides ammunition for the beleaguered Christian
Just as its title says, 20 Compelling Evidences takes a deep look at how we can know for sure that God exists. The Foreword is an interesting discussion about our relevant doubts and how to find answers for them. Then the evidences begin. Commencing with reality, knowledge, and existence, the authors reach outward to the Universe, life's origins, and a fallen world, and then take a hard look at ...

Review Text in American History

Irving L. Gordon

Amsco School Publications, 1986

A Good Compact Text
This is a good book to use in an advanced high school course or for a college course. It explains things in a very concise way. Still, the lack of art or images makes the reading a little dull. I recommend the text in conjunction with a standard history textbook, along with a text like Zinn's People's History of the United States or Loewen's Lies My Teacher Told Me. Furthermore, the book lacks ...
