Never Too Late To Learn?
Although I have played saxophone for many years, I'm a rather late-comer to improvisation. In spite of a couple classes, this book has given me the most insight. By that, I think its pre- sentation of studies as connection of,let's say, various chords in ascending or descending creates a challenge to develope familiarity and smoothness one will obviously need in real life improvisation. Have ...

Very Helpful
This book helped me out a lot in my college writing class. When the teacher would correct my paper I could go back and look at some examples in the book to make my essays better. This is one book that I would not sell back after the end of the quarter.

Fun, quirky and very informative
One of the many things that I LOVE about this book is that while it is great for beginners - with many good graphics and descriptions of stitches and finishing etc - it is absolutely fantastic for those of us who aspire to get past a rigid pattern and want to try and create our own designs. It is very clearly thought out. Instructions, hints and tips aplenty. It genuinely does have something for ...

better ways to classify data?
When you have data that is present in some n-dimensional space, you often want to make clusters. The problem is that most methods have a subjective component. What is a cluster is sometimes a matter of definition, within a given method. Clusters can also be used to try to draw up regions of that n-dimensional space. This constitutes a classification of future data. Well, how to do so? Abe ...

More Practical Concepts, Less Psychology
While I don't own a physical copy of this book, I had used an electronic form of it in the course of my studies. I will first forewarn those who are interested in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) that this text does not heavily focus on the science of Psychological principles such as Gestalt Perception, nor does it concern itself with techniques/methodologies such as Threading and ...

My Bible for Costume
I found this book around 25 years ago. At that time it didn't have any explinations, only the designs and some general info in the front. I do pre 1660 re-enactment and still use and teach from my well worn copy. I put it in a notebook and lend out sheets to explain how pieces go together. It isn't totally accurate, but it is a starting place for new costumers. It is easier to explain changes to ...
