Paul Grivell

Chronicle Books, 2006

great great product
This is a wonderful product. It introduces kids to all the main principles of wet photography without the need for camera, darkroom or chemicals. It is also fascinating to observe the image appear in front of your eyes. The booklet is very informative and the templates for contact printing look nice. The kit offers an infinite number of creative projects one can do, and the resulting sunprints ...

Love Spell, 1997

A GREAT late night read!!!
This book was wonderful! You not only get one great novel, you get two wonderful reads under the same cover! Moonlight tells the classic tale of the vampire....but with a twist. It, actually, tells the lonely tale of how he came to be in our century. Most novels romanticize vampirism. This novel tells of how it would truly be to become immortal. Sunlight was a wonderful read, too. A most ...

Like "Stolen Valor," one of the more important books on Vietnam
As the public affairs officer for the 1st Infantry Division brigade that has the 1st Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment "Black Lions," the legacy unit of the 2-28 IN battalion so well chronicled in Maraniss' book, I have been seeking as much information on the Black Lions as I can find. This book did not disappoint. Like the Vietnam classic Stolen Valor, this is a seminal read on the conflict, ...

The Magic Flute, made more magical
The Magic Flute isn't one of the classic Grimms' fairytales, so I wasn't at all familiar with it and failed to recognise it in the blurb. The story looked intriguing nonetheless: Sarastro, "Mage of the Day", and Pamina, "Queen of the Night", have a daughter who spends her life with her mother until she is 16 - whereupon she must leave to live with her father. The blurb then promises treachery ...

The Healing Sun: Sunlight and Health in the 21st Century

Richard Hobday

Findhorn Press, 2000

The Truth About Sunlight
Many ancient cultures worshipped the sun, which is understandable given the healing power it contains. While I don't worship the sun, but rather it's Creator, I am truly grateful for the healing power it contains. For years sunlight has been put down as unhealthy by the mainline medical establishment. In his well researched, most imterestingly written book, "The Healing Sun," Richard Hobday not ...

Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight
This is an important book for everyone to read. We need to be informed as to our 'out of control' consumption of earth's resources and learn how to live so that those who come after us can live well too.

The Sunlight Dialogues

9 reviews
John Gardner

New Directions, 2006

Unjustly Overshadowed By Grendel-A Truly Fantastic Novel
The Sunlight Dialogues_ is truly John Gardner's magnum opus, equaling and perhaps overshadowing _Grendel_, the book for which he is best known. Grossly over-simplified, it is about the tide of discontent and change that came about in the 1960s, exemplified in the stories of a handful of people who live in the small New York town of Batavia. All of these characters' stories occur at roughly ...

Sunlight On The Lawn (Beverley Nichols Trilogy Book 3)

Beverley Nichols

Timber Press, Incorporated, 1999

Witty and Wonderful
Beverley Nichols had a rare talent. His writing is witty and humane and perfect for relieving the stress of life lived in the modern world. When you read this book you will be saddened that only two others of his sixty odd minor masterpieces are still in print. Buy this book if you love gardens, or old houses or simply reading well written stories, some of which are laugh out loud funny. Beverley ...

Mollie Katzen

Hyperion, 2002

Absolutely terrific
I regularly make delicious meals from this absolutely terrific book. The recipes are well written and come out very well. There are interesting ideas for adding soy protein powder and other ways to increase protein content if you want. There is a great variety of recipes, sweet and savory. Eggs, tofu, beans, fruit, tomatoes, as well as muffins and breads. Sure, some are treats. But I am very ...

Strands of Sunlight

Gael Baudino

Roc, 1994

Better than chocolate!
Strands of Sunlight is an absolutely wonderful book and definately the best of Gael Baudino's writings that I have read so far. She has a certain sense of reality, of truth in her words that read more like an autobiography than a fantasy novel. Her characters are amazingly well developed, the mood perfect, and the ending is not only suprising but also leaves the reader with a feeling of ...

Sunlight at Midnight: St. Petersburg and the Rise of Modern Russia

Bruce Lincoln, W. Bruce Lincoln

Basic Books, 2002

One final excellent work
It was with great sadness that I learned of the death of W. Bruce Lincoln, one of my favorite writers of history. His works on Russia have given me, time and again, new insight into that country, its people and history. This last work is another excellent example of his writing, marred only by what I think is some poor editing. I don't know at what stage of this work Mr. Lincoln died, but it ...

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 1997

Spring is in the Soul
It is winter in Wyoming and Tracy Porter's Woven in Sunlight reminds me that spring is around the corner and in my soul. Filled with delicious quotations and unmatched artwork, this book fills me with sunlight. I bought her calendar recently and realized that this woman's talent is endless. From dinnerware to wallpaper, Tracy has a complete line of home decor that has inspired me to color ...

Heal Yourself with Sunlight
Andreas Moritz

Ener-chi.com, 2007

This book by Andreas Moritz provides scientific evidence that sunlight is essential for good health, and that a lack of sun exposure can be held responsible for many of today's diseases. On the other hand, most people now believe that the sun is the main culprit for causing skin cancer, certain cataracts leading to blindness, and aging. Only those who take the "risk" of exposing themselves to the sunlight, find that the sun makes them feel and ...

Sunlight Here I Am: Interviews and Encounters, 1963-1993

Charles Bukowski, David Stephen Calonne

Sun Dog Press, 2003

Essential to the collection.
I give this book five stars because there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. It is a nice, tight collections of interviews spanning Bukowski's career and I found it a pleasure to read. That said, a buyer will want to keep in mind that interviewers often ask the same questions, so people might find this book repetetive, but as an avid Buk fan, I did not. It's hard to tell with Bukowski where ...

Kathleen Cambor

Harper Perennial, 2002

Living characters, a totally real landscape
This New York Times Notable Book develops a lyrical love story within the context of the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, flood of 1889 that killed 2,200 people. Nora, whose family is one of 100 members of an exclusive gentlemen's club high in the Allegany Mountains behind an earthen dam, would rather roam the deer trails and discover wildflowers and strange insects than socialize with the other ...

think for youself, question authority, save the world
This book is the most thought-provoking books I have read in a long time that sheds a lot of light on the current environmental and social conditions of the world. The first 2/3 of the book is very tough to get thru as the environmental outlook is very dim, however the last 1/3 is very optimistic and really makes you feel like you can make a difference (prayer is a great example). The book ...

Journey of Healing
Stepping into Sunlight tells the story of Penny, a woman who goes through a difficult struggle after witnessing a brutal crime. It was very touching and realistic. It gave me a new view into the heart and mind of someone who struggles with post traumatic stress disorder. Penny's journey back to the sunlight will encourage you to lift your eyes to the One who is able to bring healing and comfort ...

5 Months of Daily Tanning Later & Excellent Health
Dr. Kime's book is easy to read, informative for laymen, yet fully scientifically documented and researched, and most interesting reading for everyone interested in adopting a full regimen of health reform, adding daily sunlight to diet, exercise, fresh air, pure water, etc. After 5 months of 4 to 5 day per week full-body tanning, my skin feels alive and healthy, as never before. A former ...
