Stephen C. Lundin, Harry Paul, ...
Hyperion, 2000
Makes work fun
Fish! is a great book that teaches you how to have fun at work and make your job into something you enjoy coming to each day. It tells the story of a woman who goes through a transformation to learn this very thing from an unlikely source: the fish mongers at a Seattle fish market. A cute story and helpful book that has been used effectively in my company.
Another business fable I just came ...

Easy Mind-Reading Tricks 4 reviews
Robert Mandelberg
Sterling, 2005
Best buy for the money.
I have just finished reading Robert Mandelberg's Easy Mind-Reading Tricks and, as there are no reviews posted, I would like to air my thoughts. I have been actively involved in magic and mentalism for over 40 years, and I have read much of the published literature in the area. For the average amateur, I firmly believe this book is the best, and most reasonably priced, source of material I have ...

Bantam, 1994
so glad I read this book
I recently lost a brother. A friend loaned our mother this book. The book didn't answer all my questions, but it did address a significant portion of them. I found her story captivating and comforting, and I intend to buy my own copy so I can highlight the most meaningful portions. The author describes heaven as a place so wonderful that she did not want to return to her body. If you're ...

Harper Collins, 1998
Soul Food
The writing is exquisite. It feeds the part of me that responds to poetic language. I take time with this book as a gift to myself when my Spirit is feeling parched. Thank you, John, for sharing your word mastery.

Eternal Echoes: Celtic Reflections on Our Yearning to Belong17 reviews
John O'donohue
Harper Perennial, 2000
Touches the soul
This book is from the soul, and we all need soul food every now and again. I picked it up in Ireland while chilling out from a broken marriage and it spoke to me like no other book has ever done. With prose like exquisite poetry, John O' Donohue touches the soul with a true taste of spirituality.
Very inspirational, it's wonderful to read a work of art that is so "biblical" in it's ability to ...

An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness328 reviews
Kay Redfield Jamison
Vintage, 1996
Kay Jamisons credentials
I'd just like to correct something is one of the reviews.
Kay Jamison is not a psychiatrist. She is a psychologist who heads a psychiatric department. If you have read this book, you know that.
I've read over a dozen books on Bipolar Disorder. Being Bipolar myself, I really felt a kinship with Kay. My family also read this book and tell me that they now have a better understanding of my ...

The Well-Educated Mind: A Guide to the Classical Education You Never Had43 reviews
Susan Wise Bauer
W. W. Norton & Company, 2003
Very good book
Helpful and very well organized. The author takes a very daunting task (to become "well read" and classically educated) and truly encourages and motivates the reader.
She offers her lists which, she explains, are just a starting point and not exhaustive. They are set up chronologically and she encourages the reader to make the lists their own by adding to or subtracting from the list.
She ...

Beyond Fear: A Toltec Guide to Freedom and Joy - The Teachings of Don Miguel Ruiz43 reviews
Mary Carroll Nelson, don Miguel Ruiz
Council Oak Books, 1997
Excellent way to understand the four agreements even better
If you enjoyed "The Four Agreements", you'll love this book. After reading Don Miguel's book, and even taking a spiritual journal down to Mexico City to do the work in Teo, I picked up this book and that's when it all made sense. This book provides you with a wonderful way to learn even more about the four agreements and to process this work and make it your own.
Absolutely highly ...

Palm Reading: A Little Guide To Life's Secrets (Miniature Edition)15 reviews
Dennis Fairchild
Running Press Miniature Editions, 1995
Small bargain
This book on palm reading is an excellent little bargain. It is small enough to fit in your pocket and teaches just the right basics. Much cheaper than what you pay for a professional palm reading. Works great for a conversational opener regarding romantic interests too. Trust me. *wink*

First Language Lessons for the Well-Trained Mind, Level 3 4 reviews
Jessie Wise
Peace Hill Press, 2007
He's getting it
We bought this after my first grader's successful results with the first book. It is systematic, comprehensive, and the language is not overly simplified. The author doesn't condescend to my third grader, a voracious reader who recognizes "dumbed down" speech and writing and is turned off by it. New material is presented in a no-nonsense, sequential manner, and as each new part of speech is ...

Mind Performance Hacks: Tips & Tools for Overclocking Your Brain (Hacks)23 reviews
Ron Hale-Evans
O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2006
Valuable and entertaining
This is a valuable book that is also very entertaining.
The book is a compilation of seventy-five "hacks" designed to help us "overclock" our brains. Catchy! What it means is that the book is a collection of tips and techniques that speed and enhance our mental abilities. And they do.
The tips deal with memory enhancement, perception, decision making, math applications, and general ...

Miss Julia Speaks Her Mind: A Novel (Miss Julia)129 reviews
Ann B. Ross
Harper Paperbacks, 2000
It's hard to title this
Before writing this commentary, I read all the one star reviews, and I must say that I don't understand them. This is NOT Jan Karon's Mitford series--or any other. It either stands on its own or it falls flat, and I think it works pretty well.
The book is by turns funny and then melodramatic and then a social commentary. I liked that mix. Miss Julia has been taken care of her entire life, ...

Easy terms to master
Im just another guy who bought this for the game. I use these techniques not only to impress but to weed out the ones that arent worth getting in your life. This book explains all you need to know in juvenile, easy to understand, terms. Trust me, whether you follow DeAngelo, Mystery, Gunwitch, or even Jeffries, you'll appreciate what you will learn in this book and the more you practice(sarge), ...

You Are Psychic: The Art of Clairvoyant Reading & Healing22 reviews
Debra Lynne Katz
Llewellyn Publications, 2004
Wow! Great Book and Exercises that WORKS!
I went for my first Clairvoyant Aura Reading at InVision (here in Chicago) last Saturday as I was curious how different this is from consulting fortune tellers. I also want to develop my psychic abilities and learning to read the aura. My first clairvoyant aura reading experience was very good. They were very accurate. I highly recommend having this kind of reading as opposed to fortune tellers ...

First Language Lessons for the Well-Trained Mind, Level 3 Student Workbook5 reviews
Jessie Wise
Peace Hill Press, 2007
Wonderful books
I used "First Language Lessons for the Well-Trained Mind" for grades 1 and 2 and was thrilled that Jessie Wise came out with a book for grade 3. I wasn't, however, thrilled that I now had to purchase a second "workbook", but I did it anyway and BOY! am I glad I did. This workbook makes grammar a breeze. It is well worth the money. Trying to duplicate everything on paper would be more headache ...
