Slow Burn: The Rise and Bitter Fall of American Intelligence in Vietnam2 reviews
Orrin Deforest, David Chanoff

Simon & Schuster, 1990

Very Useful Memoir
Orrin DeForest's brilliant and incisive memoir serves both as an instruction manual and as a dire warning for the American intelligence apparatus. While the book was published several years ago, I can think of few volumes more relevant for our troubled times. As the United States struggles with a highly complex insurgency in Iraq, while also battling a new form of international terrorist ...

Leslie Esdaile

Pinnacle Books, 1997

Slow Burn Sizzles!
This book was suggested for my book club to read by the owner of the book store where we meet. I recall her saying that the "Cover Design" does not do the story justice. That was an overstatement. This book was fantastic! The multi-dimensional characters lives were realistic, haunting, and packed with drama. Ms. Esdaile has woven an exciting thriller. I couldn't turn the pages fast ...

loved this book
I enjoy all Julie Garwood books, her older historical fiction, as well as her newer suspense novels. I lauged out loud when her "wonder bra" saved her life and several other times throughout this enjoyable book. Suspense, romance and comedy. Who could ask for anything more.

Long Slow Burn: Sexuality and Social Science
Kath Weston

Routledge, 1998

The "Gay '90s" of the 20th century have been nothing if not, well, gay. For the first time, gays and lesbians have witnessed consistent positive representation of their lives in film, on television, in literature, and in politics. Gay culture has even extended itself to the oft-impenetrable ivory tower, where academics have been conceiving a new branch of the humanities: gay and lesbian studies. As anthropologist Kath Weston notes in Long Slow ...
  
  











  



  
Slow Burn (Leo Waterman Mysteries)12 reviews
G.m. Ford

Avon, 1999

Clever parody of Rex Stout's "Some Buried Caesar"
I've always regarded Some Buried Caesar as one of the best Nero Wolfe novels but this homage/parody of it may actually be even better. Ford takes the basic idea of Some Buried Caasar - a controversy erupts when a champion bull is scheduled to be the main attraction at a barbeque - but updates the story with animal rights activists and a crazy helicoptor delivery sequence that is nothing short of ...
  
  











  



  
Slow Burn: Burn Fat Faster By Exercising Slower28 reviews
Stu Mittleman, Katherine Callan

Collins Living, 2001

Excellent
The author is very thorough in explaining how the whole physiology while exercising works. Not in a general way but very specific to the topic and to what you need to know related to what you can implement in your daily routine. It is easy to read and brings you to the point that you can make decisions about how you want to exercise, how often and what to eat. I have been running for 26 years - ...

Slow Burn Burns Up the Pages!!!
Wow! I haven't read a Graham book in a long time and I thought I would try out one of her contemporaries and boy was I shocked! I had only read her historicals all these years. This was excellent! The characters were so real and complex, I loved them! Especially the male lead of David Delgado. Whew, does he burn up the pages!!! ~Spencer Huntington just lost her husband, a police detective, ...
  
  











  



  
The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution: The Slow Motion Exercise That Will Change Your Body in 30 Minutes a Week92 reviews
Fredrick Hahn, Mary Dan Eades, ...

Broadway, 2002

Better than Pilates for losing inches when incorporated into a more traditional workout schedule.
I have waited years to review this book: I bought it five years ago with "The Power of Ten" when I was a professional Pilates instructor. At the time, I was 33, and working as a Pilates teacher in the busiest Pilates studio in the city--of which I was the owner. I did this program for three months without following the dietary recommendations other than cutting out bread and pasta. Clients ...

Slow Burn: A Photodocument of Centralia, Pennsylvania2 reviews
Renee Jacobs

Univ of Pennsylvania Pr, 1986

A Great Photo Document of the Centralia Story
The photos in this book (and a radio interview in Philadelphia with the author in 1986) started me on what became a very deep interest to me-the story of Centralia. I was furtunate enough to buy a copy at that time (along with "Unseen Danger"). I just returned from 9 years on the West coast (I'm a native Philly boy)and hadn't ever heard of this town or the mine fire. I got to see the town ...

Slow Burn: The Great American Antismoking Scam (And Why It Will Fail)22 reviews
Don Oakley

Eyrie Press, 1999

The Truth Hurts
This is an extremely well-researched and put together history and critique of the Anti-Smoking Crusade. It is a long and heavy book, but every page is interesting reading. Every comment and fact the author shares is either marked as personal experience or he has the documentation to back it up. He doesn't try to sell anyone on the idea that smoking is good for you; he is only trying to point out ...
  
  











  



  
Slow Burn1 review
Sabina Murray

Ballantine Books, 1990

Entertaining
I really fluked into this one. A pleasant surprise. With , Slow Burn , Sabina Murray has skillfully captured the plastic existence of a well-to-do sector of Philippine society. Take out the occasional use of the country's language and specific locations , and this story could've easily taken place anywhere. A well crafted novel.
