Here Be Dragons: The Psychological Problem, Cause & Cure

How to slay dragons
Manuel J. Smith has come out with a new and much needed book on assertiveness. Assertiveness means nothing more than making desions based on your own understanding of the facts. Doing this, as Smith explains involves using higher brain functions. When we are made to feel guilty or shameful or angry in someway, a reflex gets triggered and we adopt a flight/fright response involving the more ...

Mythological novel: Here there be five stars
So yeah, I'm a kid. You can read this if you want. I might not be the a big literary scholar or some cool book reviewer, and the first time I looked at this novel,I dismissed it. It seemed interesting, but I'm not a fan of old-time stories. The second time I got it from the library. I read 60 pages of it. I didn't like. Several months later, I checked it out again. I started getting into it, the ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 2001

What Is Life?
The book presents, chapter after chapter, the points of view of differents scientists (and a few pseudo-scientists) on the subject of life: its nature, definition, origin, rules, etc. The underlying subject is extraterrestrial life, but, in order to discuss it properly, the text does not focus on SETI only, for example, but asks renowed biologists, mathematicians, roboticists and Artificial Life ...

Here There Be Dragons
B.A., Bosaiya

wiselephant, 2006

We have come to see the world as devoid of mystery, and with these images I hope to restore some sense of wonder about the world around us. There was once a greater sense of mystery in the world, sailors of long ago would tell tales of mysterious beasts in uncharted areas of the flat Earth. Hand-drawn maps had vast areas marked as "Unknown" and the darkest corners were inscribed with the wondrous phrase, "Here there be Dragons." Those days ...

Fabulous read, give it a try.
This was the first Penman novel I read (recommended by another Amazon reader) and it's a whopper. I had serious doubts about it in the first chapter...I wasn't certain I'd be able to keep all of the historical figures straight and my unfamiliarity with anything Welsh made it difficult to follow at first. But as it turns out, after that first chapter, I simply could not put this book down. ...

Harcourt, 1993

Here There Be Magic
Yolen is one of my favorite authors, and I find it hard not to gush while describing her work. Hence, the complete and utter lack of other Yolen reviews in my repertoire (gushers can be tiresome, after all). Here There Be Dragons is one of a series of three books (the other two being Here There Be Unicorns and Here There Be Witches). In it Yolen has collected some of her best stories and poems ...

Bantam Pathfinder - Bantam Books, 1969

Classic tales
This is another book of short stories from the master writer Ray Bardbury. The shortest in the collection is three pages and the longest is forty-seven, but most are around ten pages. As the title suggests most of these stories are science fiction, but some are fantasy and some are about the magic of every-day life. In many stories there is an atmosphere of small-town-America, an America which ...
