Stiff Upper Lip Jeeves (Bertie Wooster & Jeeves)10 reviews
P. G. Wodehouse
Chivers Audio Books, 1992
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 ...

Closing the African American Achievement Gap in Higher Education
I recently received a copy of this book I pre-ordered directly from the publisher (Teachers College Press). So far I'm very favorably impressed.
It starts (in Chapter 1) by defining the different facets of the achievement gap in higher education and provides a theoretical framework that is applied consistently throughout the ...

Great book! Great investment!
Reviewed by William E. Cooper for Reader Views (1/07)
I don't usually read mystery novels. As a retired Chief of Police I have found many of them lack the reality of policing, the reality of what it takes to actually solve a major case. I've found many of them favor the protagonist, reducing the police to essentially negative, cynical zealots who violate one civil right after another. Even ...

text for less
This SAME book was being sold at my son's school book store for $50 MORE than the Amazon price! You can't beat that!!! And they ran out of the books at the store. There are some students 2 weeks into school with NO textbook! This was a super easy & less expensive way to get the SAME book.

Peter Stiff
Galago Publishing Pty Ltd, 2005
Koevoet's counter-insurgency war put in perspective
Counter-insurgency warfare has never been a lounge sport, and good counter-insurgency forces are always quick to be marked as the vilans. This book shows how the South African Police, during the late 70's deceided to fight SWAPO on its own terms. A fighting vehicle capable of withstanding small arms fire and landmines was developed. This new Vehicle, the Casspir, was armed and gave the Police ...

Frozen Stiff (The Secret World of Alex Mack, No. 12)3 reviews
Diana G. Gallagher
Aladdin, 1997
It's was great!
I think that this was the one of the best Alex Mack book's that I have read. It is different then the rest, and it shows a creative side of the author, even though all her books are creative! It talks about Alex trying to earn some cash, and all the trouble she goes though! As usual though, Ray and Annie, both help her. It's a great book I think, and if you like the Alex Mack series, I would ...

If one has ever worked underground in a mine this book is a
Frank Crampton didn't have to become a tramp miner, he chose too. Born well conneced, he gave it all up to discover what it is like to become a working stiff in the western mines. His discriptive writings of the every day workings under ground are so real one can smell the powder after a blast. His experience while being traped under ground in the Bingham Canyon Mine, and being cold ...

Board Stiff Too:Preparing for the Anesthesia Orals2 reviews

Butterworth-Heinemann, 2000
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.

Australia confused
The mystery part of this novel isn't the greatest. But the sideshow is a real whopper. The story is told by Murray Whelan, gofer and fixer for Charlene Wills. Charlene and her colostomy bag are Minister for Industry of the reigning Labor Party. Her advisor, Angelo Agnelli, is Murray's boss who sends him to the Pacific Pastoral meat works to check out possible political implications in the ...

Graphic, Informative and all RHODESIAN!
As an avid researcher/historian and webmaster (Selous Scouts website) on Rhodesian matters and in particular the Selous Scouts I find this book "Selous Scouts: Rhodesian War - A Pictorial Account" to be one of the most enlightening and entertaining, and not to academic and in-depth, which it was never intended to be. This pictorial is a coffee table size book that is superbly laid out and ...

Puffin Books, 2000
Bravo! A job well done!
This was an amazing book! The short stories are really wonderful and I know I would be visibly enlightened if I knew where Paul Jennings gets his inspiration. I really loved at the very very end about him and how he used to roll a ball of yarn under his bed to check if there were any monsters or such creatures, where on earth could he dream up such a fantastic idea and at such a young age! ...

Earl M. Coleman
Edwin Mellen Press, 2001
The Best Compilation of Poetry to date!
With this compilation, author Earl Coleman has far surpassed any other work of poetry in our day. His use of the language and poetic prose is amazing, and very satisfying. I could not recommend any compilation more than this one. It is nothing short of a masterpiece of modern literature.

Stiff Assignment by Skylar Sinclair
I think Skylar Sinclair believes in the fast and soon theory. I have read a book by her in the past, and it was a good story, but very short. And now this one: a good plot that I have finished in a blurr and in the end I have the feeling to have missed something. Maybe it's not a lack, maybe it means that she manages to tell us all we needed in less than 80 pages, but when I find a good story, I ...

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 ...

WORKING STIFFS by Simon Wood
Review by Nickolas Cook
Crime anthologies have enjoyed a great tradition in American literature. For a genre fiction, they get a heck of a lot less grief from publishing than horror or science fiction, and don't suffer from the ghetto slap from critics. Some of crime literature's best anthologies were the old Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery. Well, Simon Wood has ...

This book is for people that now what it is like to go that bit further to achieve an objective. It is easy reading, i couldn't put the book down. You have to take a step back and appretiate what these men went through. There is only one thing that comes to mind, they are harder than a bag of hard things, without a dought!

Quintessential Texas Cookbook
This book was written by my great uncle and is basically a family cookbook. What makes it interesting are the author's comments and reflections about growing up in Northwest Texas during the 20's and 30's that begin each chapter. I would recommend the 2nd edition as my uncle sometimes left out measurements and even ingredients in the 1st edition. The recipes are not your usual collection of ...
