Excellent book!
I love this book. It's a great "find-the-hidden-things" kind of book that kids love, and it teaches vocabulary in a fun way. Kids can learn the names of many different kinds of animals, as well as the descriptive words that illustrate them (e.g. who has horns, who is backward, who is sleeping, etc.) Finding the hidden descriptors is not super obvious even to adults, so it also teaches them to ...

Pamela Rosewell Moore

Chosen, 2004

An insightful Author
Speaking from the authority of someone who lived and traveled with Corrie ten Boom, Pamela Rosewell Moore dived into archived papers and her own dear memories of Tante Corrie to provide this new work. At the heart of the material is 'how is Corrie relevant to today's Christian?' and how can I as an author show that to my readers? The depth of Pamela's experience with Brother Andrew and with ...

NAVPRESS, 1993

My path out of anxiety disorder
I was gripped by anxiety and panic attacks since my early teens, but didn't realize it until my mid-40s. Once I hit bottom in my relationships, and had to face the facts, I turned to Dr. Townsend's book and found the answer. My early childhood trauma had imprisoned me in a childish emotion that I had to overcome. He not only helps you recognize where and how this can grow from early ...

A White Man's Opinion
I was in Houston visiting a friend when he pulled this book out. I was bored and started flipping through it... and then started to read it. I don't pretend to know ANYTHING about this lifestyle but I do know the book was very easy to read and very simply written - conversational style. I had no knowledge (still don't) of any of the references to hip hop or even the Hollywood references above the ...

Hiding from Humanity: Disgust, Shame, and the Law

Martha C. Nussbaum

Princeton University Press, 2006

Excellent!
This is a remarkable book. As a gay man, I found myself saying "thank you" outloud as I finished each chapter. Nussbaum is more than just a wonderful American philosopher, she's a national treasure. If you haven't read her exchange with the, in my opnion, evil philosopher John Finnis, I highly recommend you do. One final point, although I am also a fan of Judith Butler (and I know that Nussbaum ...

Prima Lifestyles, 2000

Insightful information
Excellent book if you need to know how to protect your identity, assets and any other valuable items that are in your possession. The book mentions that "almost everyone has something to conceal", and I am a firm believer in that. Whether you've got assets or just a hard working middle class person, we all have our identities. The author also mentions how to legally move your assets and protect ...

Hiding From Love: The Book that Helped Change My Life
Hiding From Love provided me with the insight I needed to understand all the why's I had dealt with my entire life. At the age of 45 I was finally able to understand why I had felt so "unlovable", "insecure" and "stupid" as a child, that there were very valid reasons for my thinking that way about myself that were NOT MY FAULT. I began to see myself with confidence, and worthy of being loved, ...

Yes, there are ghosties and beasties and things that go bump in the night!
What fun! Safe to read at home, but if I was staying at a hotel/home/building that was reputed to be haunted, I'd save this one for later. It took a good couple of hundred pages to set the scenes and the characters, but then things took off and I couldn't put the book down. In some ways I can see cutting some of those characters and still keep the main story, but I loved the whole book anyway. ...

The prehistory of and rise -- and perhaps fall -- of string theory
According to Ed Witten of Princeton's Advanced Institute (former home to BOTH Albert Einstein AND Kurt Godel), modern string theory is a piece of 21st century science that fell early into the 20th century. According to string apologist Brian Greene, sring theory succeeds where Einstein himself failed...in uniting nature's fundamental forces to form a complete explanation of reality ...

GHOSTIES AND BEASTIES AND THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT...
I have been a fan of this author ever since I read her wonderful bestselling book, "Lady of Hay". So, I looked forward to reading this, her latest book, which has supernatural portents and characters from another place and time. In this book, the mid-seventeenth century and the present converge. Ghosts from the time of Oliver Cromwell, when Matthew Hopkins, the Witchfinder General, unjustly ...

Mark C. Taylor

University Of Chicago Press, 1998

Ahead of its time
I first resisted Hiding. I wanted to disapprove of its subject matter (skin, mystery novels, fashion, Vegas, and on!). I really tried not to like it. But it's grown on me in ways that I find quite challenging. And that challenge is what's best about it. There was a review in BookForum about Hiding that couldn't let go of the central tenet of this cunning book: surface is not to be ...

a child's view of the Holocaust
Hiding from the Nazis I don't know how old I was when I first learned of the Nazi death camps; the Holocaust was an unknown word. As an adult, young children come to me asking for books about the Holocaust. I am confronted with the question, how much information to give and what form should it take? In this picture book Hiding from the Nazis, David Adler, in slightly stilted, but in ...
