How to See Yourself As You Really Are

14 reviews
His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Atria, 2007

Mind-blowing...
Like a few other reviewers, I am in the beginning stages of my practice of Buddhism, and I have struggled with some of the concepts I have read about from other authors, lamas, and practitioners. However, when I read this book by the Dalai Lama, the veil was lifted from my eyes and I literally felt the sudden rush of understanding. Never have I meditated on a topic so deep and full of mystery and ...

How To See and Read The Aura (How to (Llewellyn))

20 reviews
Ted Andrews

Llewellyn Publications, 2006

Fantastic!
I bought a book on learning to see and read auras, and it was so bad it went in the garbage before I even finished it. I decided that seeing the aura was B.S. but I bought one more book anyway, just to be sure. I bought this book. It is unbelieveable. It explains things in a scientific way that validates seeing the aura. It gives specific exercises for your eyes to make them more sensitive. ...

Marjorie Priceman

Dragonfly Books, 1996

love it on many levels
This book meets all my basic criteria for reading to my 3.5 y.o daughter: 1) it depicts a female character taking initiative, being adventurous/ resourceful; 2) it has charming illustrations; and 3) my daughter enjoys it as much as I do. But then on top of that it 4)has great subtle humor (LOVE the surprise ending of the last page!) 5) offers a geography lesson (my daughter loves pointing out ...

Trade What You See: How To Profit from Pattern Recognition (Wiley Trading)

13 reviews
Larry Pesavento, Leslie Jouflas

Wiley, 2007

This book is fantastic
I am new to the world of trading, and I have already read many books, seen seminars, etc. Out of everything I have read, this book is not only the most practical and objective, but it also includes many poignant examples of both successful and failed trades. The patterns in this book are consistent and all build from Fibonacci ratios as well as the classic AB=CD pattern. I cannot recommend ...

David M. Matthews

Wheatmark, 2008

So Glad I Got This!
After reading this book, I finally figured out what has been confusing me about guys all my life. They are SO much simpler than I gave them credit for. What a revelation! Now I feel like I kind of have the upper hand in this whole relationship thing -- and I LOVE that. It's like someone just gave me the secret "guy manual," but guys don't have a clue that I have it. Yay for me...and for this ...

Mick Berry, Jason Gianni

See Sharp Press, 2003

Excellent introduction to the history of rhythms and drumming
I've been drumming for about a year, taking lessons from Mick ,the author of this excellent book. I use this book every time I practice either as a reference, to learn new stuff, or to get new ideas. I love the background information on each section and feel the book helps to understand rhythm and drumming from a worldwide historical perspective. Each section teaches solid basics and some ...

Turn Left at Orion: A Hundred Night Sky Objects to See in a Small Telescope--and How to Find Them

53 reviews
Guy Consolmagno, Dan M. Davis

Cambridge University Press, 2000

THE book to start with
For the beginning stargazer, without some sort of guide (either a knowledgable person or a great book), a new telescope is all but useless. Even computerized "go-to" telescopes are surprisingly disappointing; sure, they'll take you straight to the sights, but they won't tell you what magnification to use, or what you're looking for, or whether the thing you're looking for might be too dim for ...

Motivation to Move! Hypnosis Exercise Motivation

Beverly Hills Hypnosis, Trevor H. Scott

Beverly Hills Therapy, 2006

In the beginning I was very skeptical . . .
Surfing, viewing and clicking away at new products on Amazon one day, I'm not quite sure what led me to the 'Motivation to Move! Hypnosis Exercise Motivation' CD, but I will say this . . . I'm totally and completely glad I did and I'm sold on this product! No kidding! I've listened to many a subliminal/hypnosis tape/CD's in my day and for the most part they all turned out to be full of more ...

The Program for Better Vision: How to See Better in Minutes a Day: Without Glasses or Contacts!

12 reviews
Martin A Sussman

K-SEE Publications, 1998

Vision improves more than 25%
When I started this program, my perscription was -4.75 in each eye with enough astigmatism that I had to wear glasses to correct it. Now, three months later, I wear contacts at -3.50 and no correction for astigmatism and am seeing 20/20. I have hope that someday I might not need lenses at all.

Fred Schaaf

Wiley, 2007

The Joy of "Just Looking"
I was introduced to amateur astronomy about six years ago, and have recently realized that "I just enjoy looking." I didn't enjoy trying to take astro-photographs or much of the science, certainly not the chemistry! I just want the "WOW" factor, as Dean Koenig describes it. I think Fred Schaaf's recent book, 50 Best Sights in Astronomy and How to See Them, was written just for me (ISBN: ...

How to See: A Guide to Reading Our Man-Made Environment
George Nelson

Design Within Reach, 2003

How to See was originally published in 1977. This reedition is updated and in color. More than a guide to visual appreciation, this is a book about how to recognize, evaluate, and understand the objects and landscape of the man-made world. The pursuit of design is not about the way things appear, but rather about the way things give meaning and relevance to the human experience.

Egyptian Hieroglyphics: How to Read and Write Them

9 reviews
Stephane Rossini

Dover Publications, 1989

good word vocabulary
This book does not really teach you how to read and write heiroglyphs very well but it does show many words and how they were used on tombs and ancient manuscripts. This book is probably not the best book for someone who is a beginner and trying to learn how to learn hieroglyphs.
