GeoDestinies
A book I pass around alot! If you are concerned about Earth's natural resources and our future, this is a must read. The author explains the coming world production peak in conventional oil and the facts of dealing with finite resources. Don't be surprised by the problems we face just around the corner in the new century in energy, minerals and water.

The Inevitable Guest: A Survival Guide to Being Company and Having Company on Cape Cod2 reviews
Bog House Press, 2000
Good for Guests Everywhere!
I read this book while a guest at Cape Cod and found it to be delightful. It is light and humerous and, with the exception of pages devoted specifically to Cape Cod, can apply to guests and their hosts in any vacation area.

Crisis Management: Planning for the Inevitable5 reviews
Steven Fink
Backinprint.com, 2000
Fink's Crisis Management text is still the best available.
When I "suffered" my own Management Crisis back in 1994, I turned to my library collection to see if there was anything there to help me. I found Stephen Fink's "Crisis Management" and started to impliment his suggestions. What transpired, not only helped me deal with the immediate issue, but started a course of action that I still employ today. Based on my own experience, and finding ...

Les Conrad
Atlas Signs, 1987
Tragedy in Santa Maria
This book chronicles in engaging fashion the terrible and true story of how a city's water supply was contaminated when multiple measures to protect the citizens failed. It presents an interesting story on a personal level of one man who recognized a problem and did a tremendous amount of work on his own to bring it to the attention of elected officials. In this sense, it is a encouraging ...

Simple Wealth, Inevitable Wealth: How You and Your Financial Advisor Can Grow Your Fortune in Stock Mutual ...6 reviews
Nick Murray
The Nick Murray Company, Inc., 1999
Every Investor Should Read This Book
Like every book by Nick Murray, this book is excellent. As a financial advisor, this is one book that I would certainly give to every one of my clients and recommend to anyone else, but not for the reasons given in the previous review. Statistics show the the average mutual fund investor consistently underperforms the mutual funds that he or she owns. Why? Because they sell AFTER the fund has ...

The Inevitable Apostasy and the Promised Restoration2 reviews
Tad R. Callister
Deseret Book Company, 2006
Great book on the Great Apostasy!
This book is a persuasively written piece of historical accuracy. The author uses scripture, early Christian writings and common sense to paint the picture of how the early church apostasized from the true Church that Christ established in the meridian of time. One only needs to read the first few chapters to determine that the evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of a great apostasy after the ...

Grant Me My Final Wish: A Personal Journal to Simplify Life's Inevitable Journey10 reviews
Renata Vestevich
Bella Vita Books LLC, 2005
Grant Me My Final Wish
Wow! I initially bought this for myself but found it so useful that I bought one for my dad. It allowed me to approach subjects with him about his future medical care and the type of arrangements he would want for himself upon his death. Most of all, it's given both of us the opportunity to record important information right in the journal so it's all in one book. Kudos to Ms. Vestevich!

The Universal Hunger for Liberty: Why the Clash of Civilizations Is Not Inevitable4 reviews
Michael Novak
Basic Books, 2006
The author humbly submits the following:
This book may be my most important since The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism (1982). It is a look ahead into the shape of the 21st century to come--its politics, economics and culture. Its focus is that bright crimson thread of human history, the search for liberty in all three spheres, in accord with the human hunger to understand and to choose freely and to take responsibility (and to evade ...

The Imperfect Homeschooler's Guide to Homeschooling: A 20-Year Homeschool Veteran Reveals How to Teach Your ...4 reviews
Barbara Frank
Cardamom Publishers, 2008
Great read for all Homeschooling parents!
I am what most would consider a "veteran" homeschooler - 10 years into it, but I always love learning new things! I truly enjoyed Barbara's book. The title is what caught my attention - I suffer from perfection-itis. If I can't do something perfectly, I usually try and avoid it - bad habit and one I am trying to break. Like my favorite mentor, Flylady, says: "Housework done incorrectly still ...

Inevitable1 review
Louis Couperus
Pushkin Press, 2006
Beautiful book
I buy Pushkin Press books for my 93-year-old mother, who is an avid reader. They are beautifully made with a very legible typeface, but compact, and fit in the palm of her hand. She says she can no longer hold a standard hardbound book because of her arthritis. These books have been ideal for her, as she is a lifelong student of literature.

Being a member of one of the families presented and having visited the area numerous times it is very insightful and presents the persons in a very interesting light. Alan Oppedal has done ...

Untaught and Unlearned Knowledge: Christianity's Inevitable Global Triumph2 reviews
Fred G Womack
AuthorHouse, 2002
Excellent
The author uses examples of other religions to show how Christianity can be our only answer in a world where we have nothing but questions. The several chapters on Islam are fascinating and include actual excerpts from the Koran which I did not know was not even translated for its own people. Dr. Womack really gets in to the nitty gritty of what faith really is and explains it in terms that ...

Allan L. Butler
Authorhouse, 2001
Helpful Tool for Singles
As I read this book, I began to drift back on my own failed marriage and realized some of the mistakes I had made. This book is an excellent tool for single women like me who are willing to give marriage a second chance. I hope more women and men will take the time to read this book before getting married.

Bertelsmann Foundation Publishers, 1997
Highly recommended, a thought provoking read
The author sets forward a plan for trans-atlantic cooperation and friendship without dithering or political correctness. He explains the ambivalent side of the relationship between America and Europe without sidetracking into lies, half-truths or pathos.

The Inevitable Domination by Man: An Evolutionary Detective Story1 review
Seymour W. Itzkoff
Paideia Press, 2000
Highly Interesting
This is an excellent book for anyone interested in the origin of man. However, you must approach the book with an open mind, as the author does not promote the "out of Africa" religion that currently dominates the field. This book is a good update to Carletoon Coon's excellent books.
