One Fifth Avenue120 reviews
Candace Bushnell

Voice, 2009

Excellent - page turner - great characters
I have read every book that Candace Bushnell has written - she is a cut above the average - she speaks the language of our generation and creates characters that stick with you long after the last page.
  
  











  



  
The Fifth Elephant97 reviews
Terry Pratchett

HarperTorch, 2001

Funny, as usual
Terry Pratchett has done it again - as expected. His tour-de-force performances with practically every volume of his Discworld series has become the defacto standard that he has set for himself. Once again, Sam Vines, Commander of the City Watch of the magnificently squalid city of Ankh-Morpork, finds himself in an awkwardly uncomfortable situation. Once again, Sam Vines, Commander of the ...
  
  











  



  
The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook: Strategies and Tools for Building a Learning Organization22 reviews
Peter M. Senge, Art Kleiner, ...

Broadway Business, 1994

Nick's opinion on the 5th discipline - field book
As I found the learning method described in the 5th discipline's book a new management tool, I decided to buy the "field book", in order to help me introducing this methodology in the company where I'm the Financial Director.
  
  











  



  
The Fifth Discipline: The Art & Practice of The Learning Organization135 reviews
Peter M. Senge

Broadway Business, 2006

Senge is the Reader and That Really Makes This Interesting
Aside from content, I want to emphasize the greatness of this book due to Senge as reader. He is far from the typical reader of a business audiobook. He has a background that incorporates philosophy and meditation and his voice sounds friendly and one of humility. I listened to this book many times driving back and forth when I was working at a small software company. Like most such companies ...

Understanding Health Policy, Fifth Edition (LANGE Clinical Medicine)20 reviews
Thomas Bodenheimer, Kevin Grumbach

McGraw-Hill Medical, 2008

Excellent Text
I teach healthcare policy and am currently using this text. It does a great job covering the important issues. It's quite readable, as a new edition very topical and, through the use of vignettes, humanizes the consequences of policy decisions. It also has questions keyed to each chapter for assignment use. It is not an academic text and I am supplementing with articles (many of which can be ...
  
  











  



  
Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy, Fifth Edition46 reviews
Irvin D. Yalom, Molyn Leszcz

Basic Books, 2005

Yalom rocks!!
I love reading Yalom. He makes group therapy concepts flow like a river. I would give this as a gift to every student of psychology, psychiatry, nursing, social work, that I know. Not having won the lottery, I am thrilled to have it in my own library.
  
  











  



  
Complete Digital Photography, Fifth Edition78 reviews
Ben Long

Charles River Media, 2009

Complete Digital Photography
I have used film cameras for over 50 years and thus come from a back ground of using this media. My reason for purchasing this book was to gain knowledge of the digital photography which I have only experienced with video cameras. I am finding the book very readable and appears to answer many of my questions relating to upgrading to a digital SLR. Prior to reading the book I was feeling ...
  
  











  



  
The Fifth Child48 reviews
Doris Lessing

Vintage, 1989

Hard to Place
I read this in a state of agitation and joy. It gets off to a quick start and has a high level of suspense. For myself, I never felt any compassion for the child. Instead, I identified with the mother and hoped for the death of the little monster from start to finish. What it all means, I can't say. I read it as a parable of a kind. The fifth child is, say, Hitler? Somehow a political reading ...
  
  











  



  
The Fifth Agreement: A Practical Guide to Self-Mastery7 reviews
don Miguel Ruiz, don Jose Ruiz

Amber-Allen Publishing, 2009

Expanding on Toltec Wisdom
Don Miguel picks up where he left off in the Four Agreements. The book is again written in the first person much like carrying on a conversation with someone face to face, which, in my view, adds to the power of the propositions being offered. There is some redundancy in rehashing some issues of his previous books, but this is no reason to avoid or reject the book. From the point of view of a ...
  
  











  



  
Perfect Fifths: A Novel (Jessica Darling)75 reviews
Megan McCafferty

Crown, 2009

It's hard to live up to a "perfect" title
This book takes place a few months in the future (as in early 2010), which makes the timing of Marcus and Jessica's stories work. Jessica has a perfect job, and she spends her life on the road working. Marcus is finishing up at Princeton. When they run into each other at the airport, they talk about life, love and their relationship. The entire book takes place in one day (with a few flashbacks ...

Positively Fifth Street: Murderers, Cheetahs, and Binion's World Series of Poker127 reviews
James McManus

Picador, 2004

Best of this genre
I've read a lot of the "Can I win the World Series of Poker", "I wonder if I could be a poker pro", or "should I go from semi-pro to pro" genre. If I could choose just one book out of many, I'd recommend this one at the very top of the list. Extremely well written. This guy definitely has the journalist creds to pull something like this off in a fun, addictive and easy read. Although I ...

What Your Fifth Grader Needs to Know, Revised Edition: Fundamentals of a Good Fifth-Grade Education (Core ...13 reviews
E.D. Hirsch Jr., Core Knowledge Foundation

Delta, 2006

Great Companion to Core Knowledge Education
My son is in a charter school with a Core Knowledge curriculum. This book supports most everything they cover in school, including math, science, literature and social studies. We find ourselves flipping through it for more in-depth coverage on topics before he takes tests. The format is easy to follow and the synopses of historical figures and subjects are very helpful. It's been recently ...

The Fifth Mountain: A Novel (P.S.)61 reviews
Paulo Coelho

Harper Perennial, 2009

Beautiful prose and theme
Okay, I'll be honest with you. I don't really know the biblical story of Elijah. Like, at all. But, I had read and appreciated The Alchemist , biblical fiction is right up my alley, even if I don't know the basis, and I had picked this book up twice now (once on the $2 clearance shelf, and once at Book Bums - a coffee shop/lending library in Olde West Chester), so I figured it was time to read ...
