Fundamentals of English Grammar, Third Edition (Full Student Book with Answer Key) 3 reviews
Betty Schrampfer Azar
Pearson Education, 2002
Great explanations, many exercises, answer key
As a teacher of many grade levels and English fluency levels, I found this book very useful. It has perhaps the best explanation I've read on "perfect" tenses. My ESL student couldn't understand why he should use a simple past tense versus a present perfect tense, and this book helped him.
The book features many useful charts on major and minor grammar topics. I find the charts very effective ...

Thomas' Calculus: Media Upgrade 26 reviews

Pearson Education, 2007
Great Graphics = Easy Teaching
I took calculus back in college in the early 1970s and I was very pleased to see how much color graphics have done to make this subject understandable. I was using this book to tutor my daughter and I found it much easier than I thought it would be to teach her about the Taylor Series (for example) because of the clever use of color on the graph (showing how fit improved as more terms were ...

The Inmates Are Running the Asylum: Why High Tech Products Drive Us Crazy and How to Restore the Sanity 134 reviews
Alan Cooper
Sams - Pearson Education, 2004
an essential handbook for designing software
Cooper's argument in this book is simple: you have to know your users, and you have to understand what they're trying to accomplish with your software. The method that he puts forth for achieving this understanding is personas, richly-described archetypical users.
The book is easy to read and understand. He begins with a detailed description of the problem with software design as carried ...

exam cram life and health book
great format and actually interesting to read. This subject cant be broken down and organized any better. Each topic explained well, and given quick examples, which makes it much easier to understand. Short exams after each chapter, which helps reinforce your learning. CD included to practice like the actual exam - what else could you want.

This book is definitely worth the money. I am the type of person who learns better from reading than listening to (mostly) boring lectures. For that type of person this book is perfect. It is one of the best science books I've ever used.
The main thing to say about this book is that it is very readable. The chapters are relatively short (15-25 pages) and are broken up into nice length ...

Pearson Education, 2007
Well organized and synthetic
This book contains the basic principles that any HR or General Manager (especially in the US) is supposed to know. I have been using this textbook as a guide for my MBA studies. I found it very useful in that it clearly explains and organizes almost every important topic about HR management. It gives practical clues on the kind of considerations a manager needs to be aware in day-to-day ...

A Lifesaver!
My friends and I all swore by this book during our studying. It's nice and to-the-point. It's easy to get through and the questions are very good practice. All of us have used this book and we've all passed. None of the other NCLEX books we invested in were near as good a help as this one. Definitely worth the money, I'll be recommending this one to every nursing student I know!

Learning American Sign Language: Levels I & II--Beginning & Intermediate (2nd Edition)16 reviews
Tom L. Humphries, Carol A. Padden
Pearson Education, Inc., 2004
I use it as a supliment in intermediate class
As a sign language instructor, I do not use this book for my beginning ASL Class. I use "A Basic Course in American Sign Language". After students complete the beginning course and move into the intermediate class I use "Learning American Sign Language" as a review which ultimately takes them into the intermediate level. Neither book should be used without an instructor. I also use the DVD ...

Amazon, You Have Mixed Up Your Reviews
Dear Amazon,
I am the author of this book. The review you have posted does not pertain to this book, but pertains to a different book that I published back in the 1980s. I hope you will soon correct the erroneous impression that this review makes with regard to Using MIS, the book that was published in 2006.
Please fix.
Thank you,
David Kroenke

The latest and greatest...
Logic is not just for Spock; deduction (which, if you read this book, you'll discover is rather different) is not just for Sherlock Holmes. Many if not most students of philosophy over the past 50 years have had their beginning logic training from an edition of this book, 'Introduction to Logic' by Irving M. Copi, now in its twelfth edition, also now with a co-author listed, Carl Cohen.

Excellent book from an excellent practitioner/professor
This book was one of the readings in the core marketing class I took 2 years ago (the author was the professor). The class was excellent, and the book is too, especially its integration of a strategic perspective throughout the entire book. I have referred to it many, many times over the past couple years. Of course, if you're already a marketing expert, this book may be too basic for you. For ...
