Remembering the Kanji, Vol. 2: A Systematic Guide to Reading Japanese Characters (Japanese Edition)

2 reviews
James W. Heisig

University of Hawaii Press, 2008

my friends love it
Although I learned the kanji using the more straightforward methods of flash cards, writing them repeatedly, and memorizing the meanings and sounds of the semasio-phonetic components, every person I know who has tried the Heisig method has gotten amazing results. Based on that, it seems to me to be quite effective, and you might want to give it a try if the standard rote memorization learning ...

Using In Class - Good Book!
This book has been very good when combined with an instructor who actually cares about the students learning the language. Our instructor - a graduate student who is an exchange student from Korea - prepares slide shows and other material from the book for a two hour class every Tuesday & Thursday. Physically, the book is pretty high quality. The pages should stand up to a lot of page ...

University of Hawaii Press, 1986

This is a must have if you are interested in the Hawaiian language.
This is an excellent book to use as a tool for any level, from a beginner who is just started to learn to a native speaker as a quick reference guide. Since both languages are used to find words and definitions it is a very user friendly book and easily navigated. It is a must have!

Constructive Living (Kolowalu Books)

9 reviews
David K. Reynolds

University of Hawaii Press, 1984

An oasis of sanity and reality in a confused world
I first came across "Constructive Living" in an audio catalog -- it stood out among the self-help and spirituality offerings for its practical, straightforward title. His book(s) and work have had a major influence in my perception of reality. In a world of confused and suffering people looking for ways to feel better, Dr. Reynolds offers "reality's reminders" that we have more control over our ...

Map of Hawaii: The Big Island : Reference Maps of the Islands of Hawaii (Reference Maps of the Islands of ...

Best map of the Big Island
We go to Kona every other year and I never, repeat never go there without the most updated version of this map. The detail is essential sometimes to find those hard to find, yet gloriously perfect attractions. It has been the difference between making a five minute hike from a little known, local trail; and a half-hour kahole-buster hike from the more notable access points.

Japanese Culture, 4th Edition (Updated and Expanded)

H. Paul Varley

University of Hawaii Press, 2000

Amazing detail in such a small amount of space
I wasn't sure what to expect when i bought this book - after all the title does seem a little generic and it is a pretty small book, but i was pleasantly surprised. Varley's style is incredibly terse yet still very accessible. He deals with Japanese culture chronologically, giving the reader a clear picture of the state of the country at the time any major cultural events took place, although ...

Shoal of Time: A History of the Hawaiian Islands

21 reviews
Gavan Daws

University of Hawaii Press, 1989

Haoles in Hawaii
It is true that Daws has a western scholar's perspective, he is, after all, a western scholar. This hardly invalidates the history he has written any more than it would invalidate a history of the continental U.S. not written from the perspective of the native people. Similarly, it is unfair to criticize a book because it is not all-inclusive. This book outlines the history of Hawaii between ...

Remembering Simplified Hanzi: Book 1, How Not to Forget the Meaning and Writing of Chinese Characters

7 reviews
James W. Heisig, Timothy W. Richardson

University of Hawaii Press, 2008

works and it is fast
This is a system for learning all 3000 Mandarin Chinese simplified characters. The most frequently used 1000 characters appear in the first volume of 1500 characters. Otherwise, the book is organized to provide a framework for remembering characters without any attempt to teach the most common characters first. The disadvantage is that horse and mama are characters 1453 and 1454 while they may ...

The Answer For Struggling Learners
Okay, so I've been self teaching myself Japanese over the last few years in small doses, mainly because it's difficult to focus on it over an extended period time. Most learning sources I have come across ignore this and just encourage further reading. Here, though, they don't, and it helps you understand the wonderful value of breaks. I came across this when my friend told me about it after ...

Remembering the Kanji: Writing and Reading Japanese Characters for Upper-Level Proficiency (Japanese Edition)

2 reviews
James W. Heisig, Tanya Sienko

University of Hawaii Press, 2008

A fantastic idea
As the editorial review claims, the 2000 or so Joyo Kanji are not sufficient for advanced Japanese literacy - even though I have committed to memory the Joyo Kanji, in my work as a translator I encounter kanji that fall outside the Joyo list every day. I consider these characters to be "de facto" Joyo Kanji, and putting them all together in one reference work is a fantastic idea for which the ...

New Pocket Hawaiian Dictionary: With a Concise Grammar and Given Names in Hawaiian

9 reviews
Mary Kawena Pukui, Samuel H. Elbert

University of Hawaii Press, 1992

A great little resource.
This book has around 11,000 words with adequate definitions. I like the fact that the people that compiled this dictionary included names and even a guide to assist in pronounciation. This nook is not an exhaustive researh on the Hawaiian language; but will greatly assist in research; Two Bears. Aloha nui loa (I love you very much).

Advaita Vedanta : A Philosophical Reconstruction

7 reviews
Eliot Deutsch

University of Hawaii Press, 1969

Exceptional insight into Advaita Vedanta philosophy.
Books by authors who attempt to distill the essence of a vast and esoteric subject into one volume often fall short of the mark. Advaita Vedanta: A Philosophical Reconstruction, by Eliot Deutsch, is an exception. Professor Deutsch's subject is Advaita Vedanta, and in particular non-dualistic Advaita as conceived by Sankara. Concepts implicit in Advaita are concisely exposed. For example, ...

The Best Book on Fr Damien
I visited the leper colony on the island of Molokai, the villages of Kalawao and Kalaupapa last March and this book was recommended to me. I picked it up from a gift shop there as I went round visiting the sites of Fr Damien's enormous and extensive ministry. I also heard from the tour guides, stories of the zeal and dedication with which he ministered to the ill-fated leprosy patients. I also ...

Best Korean Text Series on the Market
If you are reading this you are probably aware that good Korean texts are hard to find. Of the Korean learning materials out there I have sampled including the Korean Through English series, College Korean, FSI Tape set & book, and books published by Korean unversities not available in the US, the Integrated Korean series is by far the best. The Integrated Korean series stays away from using the ...
