Cesar's Way, A Great Way
Even though my friend and I do not own a dog, we watch "Dog Whisperer" on TV. When my friend's daughter adopted a 9 month old basset hound, we purchased "Cesar's Way" for her in hopes it would help solve the wetting and chewing problems.

Datis Kharrazian
Morgan James Publishing, 2009
Wonderful information, Very Dense
This book does not treat the reader like an idiot. It goes into the complexities of the thyroid and all of the factors that affect it and the ways to make a change. The author is a natural teacher (and genius) and walks the reader through complex ideas that would normally take forever to comprehend. As someone in healthcare who deals with these thyroid patients daily it's basically a thyroid ...

Jerold J. Kreisman, Hal Strauss
Avon, 1991
Understanding Borderline Behaviors
I really wanted to develop an understanding of this very interesting personality disorder. Someone that I know recommeded this book to me. It is exceptional in explaining this type of personality. The writing style is for 12th grade and above. I don't know about anyone younger than that reading a book like this. It is never less than factual, which I find refreshing. The title "I hate you, ...

When the Body Says No: Understanding the Stress-Disease Connection9 reviews
Gabor Mate
Wiley, 2003
It's not a self-help book
I agree with the many positive comments made by other reviewers. This is not a self-help book, it's a discussion of the ramifications of stress (as a physiological phenomenon with distinct patterns within the body) for the lay person. The author discusses his experiences and observations with his patients as well offering a highly readable survey of the current research in psychoneuroimmunology.

How Evil Works: Understanding and Overcoming the Destructive Forces That Are Transforming America2 reviews
David Kupelian
Threshold Editions, 2010
Fascinating Look at Evil from a Conservative World View
*****
This book is a follow up to the author's previous book, "The Marketing of Evil", which I haven't read. You can read this book without having read the former; I can say that it stands alone as a provocative and challenging book that will appeal to people, primarily Christians, with a strong conservative world view. I am NOT one of those people (I am a more liberal, moderate Christian) but ...

Financial Statements: A Step-by-Step Guide to Understanding and Creating Financial Reports60 reviews
Thomas R. Ittelson
Career Press, 2009
A Real Life Perspective for Small Business Owners
This is the only accounting book I have seen that talks about common business transactions and then shows how each transaction effects the key financial statements. Most accounting books talk about an accounting concept and then give examples. In this book, perspective is reversed -- it follows the flow of ordinary business and explains how ordinary business transactions impact the books. It ...

This book was recommended by our marriage counselor for my husband. He refused to read it.. but I did. Unfortunately, or fortunately.. we are now divorcing. This book helped me to see a pattern of behaviors that were presented by my husband. It offered a written understanding of his past and behaviors. He wasn't ready for/or is not capable of change for his own self. However, it allowed me an ...

Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness Are the Keys to Understanding the True Nature of the Universe46 reviews
Robert Lanza, Bob Berman
BenBella Books, 2009
Wonderful book that makes sense of absolutely everything
I've been thinking along these lines for a long time, but this is the first book that I've read that provides scientific support for some pretty incredible ideas.
Arthur Schopenhauer said that "All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." There is always a concerted effort to ridicule or ...

Maggie Callanan, Patricia Kelley
Bantam, 1997
can't recommend it highly enough! full of hope and love!
I second what others have expressed so well, in our own fear of death, we abandon those who, we know are dying; thereby denying ourselves and them, the special final gifts awaiting us all; Without bringing religious beliefs into this revise; I will say that being with a person who, is dying is a time filled with such love, that, allowing that person to go, an important act on our part ...

Margaret Wehrenberg
W. W. Norton & Company, 2008
PRO-MEDICATION
I got the impression reading the reviews that this book was against using medication. After reading the chapter on drugs, in fact, the book is very open to meds and specifies when they are recommended in addition to the techniques which are the heart of this book. That coincides with what I have read from NIH researchers, and a little of the other professional literature. Norman Rosenthal in ...
