Interesting subject, cadavers!
Interesting subject for a non fiction book,cadavers, but who is not a little bit curious what happens to us after we die. Very informative, very funny, curiously touching impecably reseached. Mary Roach deserves kudos for what she put herself through to bring us this little gem.

"I write about dead people!"
It's difficult to imagine an entire book dedicated to telling the average reader about those folks who write obituaries for a living. This book, however, takes on that daunting task, and fully delivers, with information and humor. Those of us who don't do this kind of writing can't imagine that it is an intense experieance for the writer, especially those who sytrive to give the reader a close ...

Perfect!
I as a student had Saxton math books. I didn't like them very much. When I got into High School we were introduced into the Heath mathematics course. These books have real - life applications and real life equations in them. They also get you ready for the math courses you take in College.

From a teacher's perspective: Best Algebra Book in Print
I've been teaching math for 10 years and tutoring longer. Twice I've been awarded teacher of the year and I've been very involved in determining the accreditation of other high schools. I've seen a lot of algebra texts. This is the best text book from which I have ever taught. It gives excellent explanation for the student and the ancillary materials available to the teacher are great. It's ...

BEST BOOK EVER
Don't listen to what the other people are saying. I got first hand experience on this book. I must say that this is probably the best and most easy to understand math book i have ever used. The answer key in the back allows the user to assure that their answers are correct. If you are considering buying this book, i must say YES, DEFINATELY BUY THIS BOOK, IT WILL BE WORTH YOUR WHILE!!!!

An Excellent Start !
I WAY over-studied for the Orals (passed Sept 2005). This book was almost the exact format I had in my 2 exams. Don't be fooled by the simplistic approach they offer, it really was how the test went. "Would you give blood to this patient ?" "Yes, I would" "Why", etc. NOT- Whats the MAC of enflurane in this Patient, and other minutia that some of the board review courses push. I ...

WODEHOUSE + CECIL = A SPLENDID READING
Just as we believe some actors were born to play a certain role or a singer was born to sing a specific song, I'm convinced Jonathan Cecil was born to read P. G. Wodehouse. The British accented Cecil voice delightfully inhabits the personas of Jeeves, Bertie Wooster and sundry other characters with charm, humor, and distinction. My first introduction to the talents of Cecil was with his ...

A Working Stiff's Manifesto: A Memoir of Thirty Jobs I Quit, Nine That Fired Me, and Three I Can't Remember

Random House Trade Paperbacks
, 2003
Both funny and tragic
Iain Levison can find work but not fulfilment. The frustration of dead-end, deadhead labour induces a frustration syndrome as the realization sets in that his college degree in English literature will gain him little by way of psychic wages on the job. He is adrift in a workaday world where one human is as good as the next and all are expendable. Meaningless promises abound, "like when they were ...
