Microbiology: An Introduction with CDROM 1 review
Gerard J. Tortora, Berdell R. Funke, ...
Benjamin-Cummings Publishing Company, 2006
Good Book but Sheisty (sp?) Customer Support
This book seems to be pretty informative and well laid out. However, my book states that it comes with online access including access to the ebook. When I logged in however, I was denied access to the ebook. I wrote to customer service and they told me it was not included with my book (even though it says so right there on the cover). I have access to all the other online features, but just ...

Systematic Theology: An Introduction to Biblical Doctrine129 reviews
Wayne Grudem
Zondervan, 1995
Most Helpful Book to Me Besides Bible Itself
A friend who attended seminary and learned under Dr. Grudem introduced me to this book. I have read it nearly two times through so far and anticipate reading it periodically for the rest of my life. Besides the Bible itself, this is the most influential book I've ever read. It has profoundly affected my theology. I am most impressed with how Dr. Grudem always proves every conclusion through ...

The Selfish Gene: 30th Anniversary Edition--with a new Introduction by the Author277 reviews
Richard Dawkins
Oxford University Press, USA, 2006
One of those milestone books
I love the way Richard Dawkins writes. Highly logical, and always covering his tracks to avoid misinterpretation as is so likely to happen in this case. I loved the second chapter. For a long time I had wondered how evolutionary theory could explain the beginning of life. That insurmountable mountain is truly difficult to climb. But this book seemed to have a plausible answer. In his second ...

Benjamin Cummings, 2006
I miss it
This was the required text for the microbiology class I took. I found this book to be very informative and helpful. The class was an introduction to microiology and this book was perfect for it! And I'm sure that, had this book been that bad, the instructor would never have selevte it for the course. My only regret is that I sold it back to the campus bookstore at the end of the semester; I ...

Light: Science and Magic: An Introduction to Photographic Lighting 85 reviews
Fil Hunter, Steven Biver, ...
Focal Press, 2007
Wonderful book on lighting!
Lighting is what photography ("light writing", in Greek) is all about, right? If you haven't mastered lighting, you're not taking photographs; you're making snapshots.
This book is a masterful guide to light in all its forms and uses. Read it to learn what you can really do with your camera. I recommend it highly. I find myself returning to this book as a reference time and time again.

Introduction To Rubrics: An Assessment Tool To Save Grading Time, Convey Effective Feedback and Promote ...7 reviews
Dannelle D. Stevens, Antonia J. Levi
Stylus Publishing, 2004
Exceptionally clear explanation of rubrics
I had a basic understanding of grading rubrics before I began, but it wouldn't have mattered, as the authors provide such a clear explanation that I think even someone with no prior knowledge would grasp the concept almost immediately. The book is loaded with examples and a step-by-step walk-through of how to build effective rubrics. Perhaps most importantly, the authors explain why just about ...

To the Lighthouse169 reviews
Virginia Woolf, Eudora Welty (Introduction)
Harvest Books, 1989
An insightful, sensitive reading.
The idea of Virginia Woolf's fiction being read aloud effectively has struck me as an impossibility. The very interiority of Woolf's style seemed to suggest that readers hear the narrative voice within themselves. This reading proves me dead wrong. Virginia Leishman's reading--and interpretation--added much to my passion for a novel I have always loved. Readers--and listeners--new to Virigina ...

A Great Book If You Want An Intro to Special Education
I love this book! I purchased a used copy in 2001 to help prepare for my (then) upcoming Massachusetts State Teacher exam in special education, which I passed on my first try. It is a very useful source of information and contains a ton of facts. It presents special ed topics in a logical fashion and has a nice companion website. I practiced all the online questions since I had to learn a ...

Enochian Vision Magick: An Introduction and Practical Guide to the Magick of Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley6 reviews
Lon Milo DuQuette
Weiser Books, 2008
iaosun93 is wrong
I respect someone who tries to keep people honest, but unfortunately iaosun93 is wrong in claiming that the book is not available yet. As someone who has enjoyed many of Mr. Duquette's books, I am troubled to see someone wrongly make a negative review. The facts are that for some reason Amazon has not yet made the book available, but it is already available elsewhere. The book was available by at ...

Introduction to Algorithms167 reviews
Thomas H. Cormen, Charles E. Leiserson, ...
The MIT Press, 2001
The best textbook on algorithms, but it is not a programming book.
I used this book for a graduate level Algorithms course, and I really liked it. It is packed full of content on a wide range of topics. While this book does provide some high-level implementations of algorithms in pseudo-code, you will not find any examples of how to program algorithms in this book. That's really not what this book is meant for anyways.
I found the reading to be easier than ...

Want it rough? This is the first thing to get.
Want to play whips and chains? Read this book first!
Seriously- the first half is safety, safety, more safety! Te Deum safety. But there's been a few bad accidents that could have been avoided by reading this book. There are reasons for avoiding certain things, and proper ways to do others.
About halfway through- the fun starts! This really is an excellent primer for anyone with Those Urges- ...

Alif Baa: Introduction to Arabic Letters and Sounds54 reviews

Very complete
I have been using this book in my college Arabic classes three years now. It is an excellent book and is very complete. The DVDs supplement the book nicely. It would be almost impossible not to be able to learn the Arabic alphabet and some basic vocabulary with this book. The problem I have with using it for my classes is that you have to complete 7 of the 10 chapters before knowing all the ...

The History of Sexuality: An Introduction28 reviews
Michel Foucault
Vintage, 1990
Hard...but worth it.
Foucault is one of the most important thinkers of our time. He is a historian, a cultural theorist, and a philosopher. When looking at the History of Sexuality Foucault does not see powerful figures repressing sex, but actually encouraging people to discuss it. This discourse was encouraged so that sex could be controlled and this discourse actually created what is today called sexuality--a norm ...
