A Gateway to Sindarin: A Grammar of an Elvish Language from JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings

2 reviews
David Salo

University of Utah Press, 2007

Thorough and creative scholarship
David Salo's humble attitude regarding his intensely thorough research has produced a work of profound and astounding scholarship. This book is exciting to the point of being breathtaking, for, again, it raises the expectation that Middle Earth was indeed peopled by speakers of i-lambi Eldaron and rich with a living, thriving culture in which the powers of Light finally overcame the forces of ...

Journey to the Lord of Power: A Sufi Manual on Retreat

Ibn Arabi

Inner Traditions, 1981

Secrets within secrets
Move forward in time and try to visulaize your death... then look back at your life and see what really matters in life? You have to go back where you came from and nothing can change that fact. It may not be a bad idea to get closer to the Ultimate Power in your life time. This is not a book for the beginers who are trying to figure out the meaning of life and our relationship with God but for ...

The Word of the Lord Is Upon Me: The Righteous Performance of Martin Luther King, Jr.

3 reviews
Jonathan Rieder

Belknap Press, 2008

How Dr. King spoke, and what he meant by what he said
The Word of the Lord is Upon Me is perhaps best described as a biography of the rhetoric of the century's greatest orator. Rieder mentions that part of the aim of the book is to reclaim the true Martin Luther King from the shallow appreciations of St. Martin that occur every January. King's medium was speech, and he was less saint than maestro, sampling from cultural traditions across the ...

¿Que Paso?: An English-Spanish Guide for Medical Personnel

University of New Mexico Press, 1984

Excellent, quick guide for health care workers.
I took this book to Bolivia, as a non-Spanish speaking medical missionary. Soon I was conversant, at least in the medical clinic. I am now buying a copy for each doctor on our staff, and an extra copy for the E.R.

The Lords of Discipline

169 reviews
Pat Conroy

Dial Press Trade Paperback, 2002

Duty, Honor, Country
The mark of a successful coming of age story is that you, the reader, can see yourself reflected in the protagonist. For me, this book worked very well. Will McLean, the main character and first-person narrator, a second generation Irish boy, son of a Marine, a mongrel outsider in the pedigreed Carolina Military Institute searches for himself, the man within the boy who is being molded by a ...

The Lords of Discipline
Pat Conroy

Bantam, 1987

Words of Fire: Independent Journalists who Challenge Dictators, Drug Lords, and Other Enemies of a Free Press

8 reviews
Anthony Collings

NYU Press, 2001

The Heroism of Bearing Witness in the Press
At a time when print journalism has often been justly criticized in the U.S. as medium of entertainment, without independent moral backbone, Tony Collings has written a moving, brilliant record of the deadly struggle between a free press and totalitarian goverments around the globe. Collings is an experienced broadcast journalist and an eye-witness to much of the corruption and terror hidden and ...

A Gateway To Sindarin: A Grammar of an Elvish Language from J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings

10 reviews
David Salo

University of Utah Press, 2004

True Sindarin study
This book is NOT for those who simply want to learn phrases and so on. Being a student of linguistics, and having a professor whose work is used as the official linguistic analysis in an area of Papua New Guinea, I can say with honesty that David Salo's work is the real deal. I showed this to my professor, and he was completely impressed (a feat in and of itself). Reading Gateway is not ...

On the Origins of Speaking: The Discovery of Stone Age Language or Ishkama Ishkara Pheikara
Lord Walsingham

Trafford Publishing, 2006

On the Origins of Speaking is a radical revision of conventional etymology, claiming to restore semantics to the chief role in etymology and language research, in place of the easier empirical phonology currently espoused, partly aimed at the Chomskyan grammatical speculation which substitutes a mathematical formalism for semantics. It has little do do with Ur-language research, Nostratics or ...

Yearning for the Father: The Lord's Prayer And the Mystic Journey

1 review
John Sack

Hohm Press, 2006

Great out of the box perspective
John Slack does a great job of getting the reader to think outside the box if they are from a traditional Christian perspective. I loved the way he weaved other spiritual traditions into the book. The Aramaic translation of the Lord's Prayer was great. Great job John!

Killing Women: The Visual Culture of Gender and Violence (Cultural Studies)

Wilfrid Laurier University Press, 2006

The essays in Killing Women: The Visual Culture of Gender and Violence find important connections in the ways that women are portrayed in relation to violence, whether they are murder victims or killers. The book?s extensive cultural contexts acknowledge and engage with contemporary theories and practices of identity politics and debates about the ethics and politics of representation itself. Does representation produce or reproduce the ...

House Church - Simple, Strategic, Scriptural

1 review

New Testament Restoration Foundation, 2008

Refreshing Interpretation
What I appreciate most about this teaching is that it is not simply a self-serving justification for leaving State churches, by someone with an axe to grind. Rather than simply poking holes in established traditions, (and perhaps setting up new ones which are also unscriptural) the case is made for following the apostolic tradition, and it is based upon the Bible, not merely some new and ...

Charles R. Lord

Libraries Unlimited, 2000

Recommended
The number of print and electronic resources in the field of engineering continues to grow at a rapid pace. More than ever engineers need guidance in locating and accessing information. While electronic resources are becoming more common, there is still a need for an up-to-date work that looks at print and electronic resources. This book begins with a useful description of how engineers use ...

Lord Byron, Leslie Marchand

Houghton Mifflin Company, 1972

Missing the Boat
I'm writing this to specifically respond to the remarks made by another reviewer condemning Byron for forced rhymes, self-conscious commentary, and the lack of a good finish. WARNING: This poem is intended to be funny! Byron delighted in using the jangly sounds of feminine rhymes in the most outlandish fashion possible, and his digressions are what truly make this poem enjoyable; that voice is ...

Stop reinventing the wheel
I have used Teachers's Pet Publications before, and was thrilled when I received the Unit Plan for Lord of the Flies. It contains everything a teacher could possibly need to study this book...

Little Lord Fauntleroy (The World's Classics)

18 reviews
Frances Hodgson Burnett

Oxford University Press, USA, 1993

Truly outdated
I generally lean toward old classics in selecting books to read to my precocious 6-yr old. This one is undoubtedly a classic, it is indeed very good literature, excellently written -- everything the other reviewers have said. Nevertheless, its story, its conflict, its central preoccupation revolves around a very British idea of class: one's "quality" as a person is determined by one's birth. ...

Pat Conroy

Bantam Dell Pub Group (P), 1991

The World of Pat Conroy
Pat Conroy, in my opinion, is probably one of the best authors of our time. He has an ability to use words and blend them together like a chef might use spices in a secret recipe. I would recommed his books to anyone who wants to read something like they have never read before. Pat Conroy takes you on a roller coster ride through stories so well explained that you can feel that you are really ...
