Vince Flynn
Pocket, 2002
Separation of Power
The Mitch Rapp series are fast-moving compelling novels. Separation of Power is a real page-turner. I didn't want to put it down. Mitch Rapp, the main character, is a CIA assassin, who unabashedly believes in execution as a way to solve political problems. The book's author,Vince Flynn, uses Rapp's rationalizations for violence as a device to persuade the reader that there is nothing wrong with ...

Separation of Church & State: What the Founders Meant 2 reviews
David Barton
WallBuilder Press, 2007
The real perspective
This book is exactly what the title says it is, the founding father's view of religion's place in government and government's place in religion. Mr. Barton describes the origin of the phrase "seperation of church and state" (which isnt in the constitution)and describes how this phrase has been used contrary to its original purpose. This is a great book, easy to read, and well worth buying.

McGraw-Hill, 1999
calculated decision
In the heat of a break up, this book gives practical advice on how to discern what is the best route to take. It was recommended on a chat sight for divorcing couples and I would highly recommend it to people who are still within a disfunctional relationship.

Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles (Includes Unit Operations) (4th Edition) (Pie)3 reviews
Christie John Geankoplis
Prentice Hall PTR, 2003
Good for separations techniques
The only review that I can give for the text would be for the separations sections, of which our class concentrated mainly on the distillation regime. Excellent structured pairing of chapter labeling with homework and example problems. Open-ended problems required a sufficient level of engineering skills.
