A great resource for planning and DOING
I was a little skeptical of purchasing this book based on a few reviews here - suffice to say the book exceeded my expectations. True, it is an older book but the information is still good. The thumbnail info on size of plants, what they can be used for, how to grow them, certain things they need and so forth enables planning for even plants not previously grown. The photographs as well as ...

This is why we need literature.
I have been reading this author since I was young. I have always admired him. That said, when I read Divisadero and realized that I would not get any more information or story on Claire and Coop I wanted to throw away the book in disgust. I read some reviews recommending second readings. I tried to find my copy of Faulkner's Wild Palms to remind myself how these double stories work. In the ...

The Elegant Universe

An extremely good book!!!
I am not certain that I believe in superstring theory but it is a very interesting theory that warrants further reasearch until it is disproved or confirmed. The book starts out with some very simple explanations for some of the most complex ideas in physics making this a great book for someone like me who has a very strong interest in physics, but not a strong background. I highly recommend it.

AUTHORITATIVE
Halberstam's magnum opus will give you the best inside story on the main characters who led us down the path to humiliating tragedy. Reading this in hindsight, who couldn't see that simple hubris led Mac Bundy, Robert McNamara, Dean Rusk, Ellsworth Bunker, Maxwell Taylor, Walt Rostow, Earl Wheeler and William Westmoreland to advise LBJ to repeat the mistakes the French made only 10 years prior ...

Awesome book
I love this book, my [...] year old does too. It's fun for me to read and see if I can go without any mistakes. I'm hoping once he starts learning to read that he will enjoy reading it himself.

Buffalo Before Breakfast (Magic Tree House #18)

MY BOY LOVES READING IT
My 1st grader hates to put it down, he would rather read Magic Tree House books, than play video games. He even reads them to his class and explains the story for show and tell. In his kindergarten class the teacher would also let him read the Magic Tree House books out loud, not to give her a break, but to promote reading out loud. Great books!

Excellent Resource
My parents had this book on our shelf since before I was born, and when I was old enough to pick it up and read it, I fell in love. Even if some of the text was beyond my comprehension, the illustrations were more than enough to capture my imagination and drive my interest in astronomy. As I got older and could understand more of my reading, the book became that much more important and ...

Random House Inc (T), 1976

This book is a MUST READ for everyone!
I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone wishing to learn more about how the body fights diseases, infections and other foreign matters that find thier way into our systems. Glasser paints an incredibly vivid mental image of lymphocytes, antigens, macrophages, white cells, etc. using layman's terms and with excellent practical examples. Medicines don't cure our bodies - our bodies cure ...

A Deliciously Salacious History
Of the many reasons you may have for reading this book, you must not pick it up to learn who murdered Josslyn Hay, Earl of Errol. James Fox will give you all the facts and then let you decide. As Fox points out, "there were many people in Kenya who had a motive for killing Errol, and many who had the opportunity that night." To this day it remains an unsolved crime, a "cold case," dating to ...

I love to collect different cookbooks.
I received a copy of this cookbook as a wedding present in 1969 from my grandmother. I still have it and use it often. The recipes are easy to follow and understand. My daughters all love cooking also, and I usually have to "track down" the cookbook in order to use it. I'd loved to buy a copy for my daughters so I can get my copy back!

A Great Way to Help Raise Children!
I just took a STEP Parenting class & this was the book we used. I learned A LOT from it & have been able to use the techniques in my daily life with my 3 boys. While they are very simple, I will continue to review the book to remind myself what I need to do to be a better parent. The thing I liked best about the book is it helps you find ways to deal with issues WITHOUT YELLING!!! Over the ...
