The Poker Tournament Formula II: Advanced Strategies 2 reviews
Arnold Snyder
Cardoza, 2008
An exception poker book!
I like this book because it doesn't go in detail on what starting hand requirements a person should play. This is an advanced concept book and is not for folks who are just starting out playing hold'em.
I won't take away from Mr. Snyder and lay out the content of his book online. You can purchase the book for all of that. However, I will describe a few of topics otherwise no one will be ...

The HOPE Formula: The Ultimate Health Secret7 reviews
Brenda Watson
Renew Life Press, 2007
The HOPE Formula - Save a Life
A no-nonsense approach to better health with out going crazy exercising. I have studied nutrition for over 26 years and this really makes a lot of sense. M.D.'s that also have a nutritional background would have a hard time arguing that this isn't beneficial and the book is endorsed by one. The book explains the details of what the briefing on PBS covered. After a few days of following I already ...

Great running book
I'm an old, but fairly serious competitive runner. Book was great set of routines to get faster without getting injured. Not as encyclopedic as Noakes', Lore of Running, but this is the book I will use to set my training schedule.

Excel 2003 Formulas22 reviews
John Walkenbach
For Dummies, 2003
Excellent book, but there's a better choice
I've found that some reviewers say that this book doesn't give enough theory or examples are trivial or you can find that all in the Help. However, I believe that only advanced Excel users might be dissatiafied with "Excel 2003 Formulas". While that's true that it's not overloaded with the advanced theory (which is what professionals look for), it does give the beginners or intermidiate users all ...

Writing Without Formulas
William H. Thelin
Heinle, 2007
Writing Without Formulas shows students how to write instead of telling them. A non-traditional rhetoric and reader intended for freshman-level composition courses, this book presents writing as an activity rather than a formula dictated by rules and learned by rote. This approach encourages students to make decisions about writing within a context of audience awareness and critical analysis. The pedagogy featured in the text lends itself to ...

March 5, 2008
I first discovered this book in my local library . After I had taken it out twice I bought a copy of my own . I took it with me when I went to Las Vegas in December, 2007. I entered 13 tournaments and cashed in three of them . In almost every case I built up my chip stack rapidly and early and, true to Snyder's own observations, I only got in trouble when I preceived I had a good ...

The BEST optics review book for O.D's
This is simply the best, most complete review book on optics I have ever seen. This was the only text I used to review for the optics portion of the national boards and I ended up scoring in the 90 percentile!!!!!!! Simply a must for any Optom or Ophthalmology student reviewing for boards. Far better than the review book provided in the AAO BCSC series. Very easy to read, concise information, ...

This is a reprint of "McGraw-Hill Pocket Guide to Business Finance: 201 Decision-Making Tools for Managers" with a single difference. The now out-or-print book came with a runtime version of MathCAD and formulas for using each of the tools, while this new version does not.

McGraw-Hill Professional, 2006
4 years of college between the covers
The fun thing about this book is that it has everthing you learned (or should have learned) getting your Engineering degree. It's all there! It usually takes some time to sort thru what all the vaiables mean, and often you have to flip between look up tables, but it is so charming to find EVERYTHING in one spot in a book so small you can carry it in your front pocket.
