Simply inspiring
If you think you have it tough, pick up Miracles in the Andes. It is simply one of the most inspiring books you will ever read. It moves along very quickly. And as good as Alive is, Miracle in the Andes is even more enjoyable and enlightening because it reaches into one man's mind and heart in exploring those hard-to-define characteristics that some people have in survival situations. That said, ...

Paper Moon

Joe David Brown

Chivers Audio Books, 2003

Excellent and complementary
Written in the style (and context) of Steinbeck, this book is excellent. The remarkable thing about the book, though, is that it is one of the few instances where you should read and see both the book and movie. If you liked the movie, the book provides more stories and adventures; if you liked the book, the movie brings the characters, setting, and geography to life. The book is very ...

THE book for stamp carving!
If you are interested in learning how to carve your own art rubber stamps then you need this book as well as The Weekend Crafter:Rubber stamp carving. Both books provide clear cut instructions on how to carve your own stamps to make artistic and fun stamps that are one of a kind. But this book is much better of the two and I'd suggest this one if you can only buy one book on the subject of ...

Thomas Jefferson

Library of America, 1984

"Men of Men" (born of Women)
I will never be able to write a suitable review for this book - the scope of what lies between it's covers is far too great to do justice to in a review, and I am vastly inadequate to the task in any event. So, the one I write today comes from the heart - as one of the "posterity" they speak of as they went forward in their remarkable undertaking. As one of those they "did it for." The ...

Left quite an impression...
Loved this book as a child. Fast-forward thirty-some years, I am a computational linguist with a fascination for exotic writing systems. Coincidence? In think not.

Christopher James

Delmar Cengage Learning, 2008

Detailed, Informative AND Fun
I'm not really one for writing reviews, but thought I would do for this book to show my appreciation for it. 'Alternative Photographic Processes' has so many ideas that you can pick and choose from, yet I enjoyed reading through the whole book start to finish, even though I don't intend trying out everything here....This would take a lifetime. It's backed up by photo history which really ...

Arnold Bennett

Simon & Schuster (Paper), 1962

When it comes to self-help books, quality dilutes with time
With the advent of the Industrial Revolution first in England and then quickly following in America, more and more of the workforce transitioned into what we call white-collar jobs, where the workplace was outside and often far from the home. Because these new jobs more reflected our modern 21st-century jobs, in which the work was tedious, repetitive and the ambiguous results not always readily ...

Dean Oliver

Potomac Books Inc., 2004

A Mature Look At Pro Basketball
Oliver's work shows a maturity that has been lacking from many basketball evaluation books--John Hollinger's "Basketball Prospectus" being another exception. Not only are players evaluated statistically but their roles on their teams are considered in context in relationship to their numbers. If you want to gain an understanding of basketball as perhaps you've never had before, and are willing ...

Donald E. Knuth

Center for the Study of Language and Inf, 2004

Read this book first
Knuth's most famous work, the "Art of Computer Programming" series, is justly famed. Bill Gates said something like "If you can read it all the way through, write me and I'll hire you". But most people can't make it through -- they're put off by the use of assembly language, or by the amount of mathematics. I have to agree that the use of assembly throughout is overkill, and I always wished ...

Scribner Paper Fiction, 1993

A straightforward and compassionate follow-up to On Death and Dying.
Questions & Answers on Death and Dying is an extremely helpful resource to those who are bereaved or are on the cusp of being so. It is also a good introductory book, as was its predecessor-On Death and Dying-to the area of counseling psychology, specifically thanatology, the study of death and dying, for there are many issues in the dying process that are addressed: nonverbal symbolic language, ...

book with a difference
I just bought this book a week ago and I have already framed two pictures that I have painted with its help. I enjoyed painting them, they were simple and not challenging, just how I like painting. You can use the author's ideas with your own style thrown in. I'm happy that I bought this book.

THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED was A Life Altering Experience
Dr. Peck's landmark book "The Road Less Travelled" is a well-used book in our home library. With an open mind and the desire to help oneself, this book is of enormous assistance. It enlightens, examines, provides a plethora of goals and aims for one trying to find his/her way through a maze of psychic pain, emotional distress, and/or true depression. It was recommended to me by a physician ...
