Truly Understood
Christopher Peacocke

Oxford University Press, USA, 2008

In Truly Understood, Christopher Peacocke argues that truth and reference have a much deeper role in the explanation of meaning and understanding than has hitherto been appreciated. Examination of specific concepts shows that a grasp of these concepts has to be characterized in terms of reference, identity, and relations to the world. Peacocke develops a positive general theory of understanding based on the idea that concepts are individuated ...

Cold Wind Press, 2006

Pronunciation to the fullest
This book is no ordinary pronunciation book. It's "the" Book. It goes beyond teaching vowel and consonant sounds. It's about the way americans speak. For the first time I've been working with sound transitions and blendings. It feels great to notice the changes in my pronunciation.At the same time, I improve my vocabulary and learn great idiomatic expressions, up-to-date ones. As the author ...

ICON Group International, Inc., 2008

AWESOME!
This book was a joy to read. My daughter read it to her 3 oldest daughter's, a chapter at a time. They could hardly wait for "reading time" and begged for more at the end of each chapter. The life lesson in this book is so valuable. I am pleased that I have my own personal copy.

Jake always loved Ellie Matthews, even though she was married to his `best friend'. He never stopped beating himself up for not seeing what that friend did to Ellie until the night she showed up on his doorstep frightened and bloodied. Now she is divorced, and he has bided his time, building her trust and waiting until she is ready to love again. Ellie is still scared, but she knows she ...

Ms. Understood: Rebuilding the Feminine Equation

2 reviews
Jen Hatmaker

NavPress Publishing Group, 2008

Fascinating and Funny
I wish I had read this book sooner. It brings clarity to an area that can be pretty confusing - the role and identity of women in the 21st century local Christian church. Besides, what woman wouldn't need to be reminded that God can use her, no matter what her past, to accomplish His plans?! The study of women in Jesus' lineage was fascinating. Jen's voice brings laugh-out-loud reading and I ...

The Particle Garden: Our Universe As Understood By Particle Physicists (Helix Books)

Gordon Kane

Basic Books, 1996

Elementary particles for the, um, million
This is a pretty good book, but I'm still trying to work out just what audience it is best suited for. How about a bright high school freshman, one who hasn't taken physics or even advanced algebra yet? Or perhaps someone a bit older who never took much mathematics. This book really does not require much (if any) math. That might be good. Such a person might want to know about elementary ...

Excellent product.
This book helped me a lot. It reviews the spelling and pronunciation of medical terminology based on latin and greek roots, making easy to understand most of words and expressions used by doctors.

Sharon Osbourne: Unauthorized, Uncensored - Understood
Sue Crawford

Michael O'Mara, 2005

In this intimate new biography by the author of the top-ten bestseller Ozzy Unauthorized, we go behind the "marketing-genius" headlines to reveal the extraordinary life of this remarkable woman. From her emotionally-troubled childhood as the daughter of music svengali Don Arden, through the drink- and drug-fuelled years on the road with Ozzy, and her determination to make it as a female manager in a very male world, right up to her current ...

If Americans Really Understood The Income Tax: Uncovering Our Most Expensive Ignorance

17 reviews
John O Fox

Basic Books, 2004

My wife took my copy and I will have to buy another.
This is an excellent book. It has been written in a comprehensive style that can enlighten taxpayers as well as tax professionals. Every one can benefit from the collected information and well-conceived opinions of Mr. Fox. This book can serve as a wellspring to initiate questions, debate, or perhaps a citizen's revolt against our present archaic, confusing, and unequal tax system. Mr. Fox has ...

1 review

Great Product!
Stephen Covey is one of my favorite people, and his work is outstanding. This product teaches a person how to communicate in everyday life and understanding people. I think this is another great piece of work by Mr. Covey.

Mary Magdalene Understood

1 review
Jane Schaberg, Melanie Johnson-Debaufre

Continuum International Publishing Group, 2006

An interesting look at the woman at the tomb
Is it possible to understand the Mary Magdalene of the gospels? The authors of this book seek to peel away the tradition and confusion over this woman, sometimes a combination of five different women mentioned in the gospels, and to look at her through a feminist reading of the texts. Mary's position in church history, literature and even modern films is discussed along with her importance as a ...

Jesus of Nazareth: How He Understood His Life

2 reviews
Raymund Schwager

Crossroad Classic, 1998

The most intriguing retelling of Jesus' story I have read.
Schwager's telling of the life of Jesus and the early church is fascinating. Faithful to the Gospels and the book of Acts (some events are "rearranged," but plausibly so), it's like a jewel set in a filigree of Old Testament (and Apocryphal) scripture. Indeed, his working of Old Testament references into and through every thought and action of Jesus and the apostles is at times breathtaking. It's ...
