Why We're Not Emergent: By Two Guys Who Should Be

, 2008
Balanced and thought provoking
DeYoung and Kluck do an excellent job of asking tough questions about the Emergent movement, and yet they do it in a way that is representative of the faith they confess. More congregants need to be asking their leaders... "just where are you leading us?" This book will help them do just that.
Why Does He Do That?: Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men

a MUST read for ALL women
This is the best book about domestic violence I've ever read. It's the only one i've found that gets to the core of why men abuse. Rather than making excuses, he explains how abuse is a conscious decision, it's a learned behaviour, and it CAN be unlearned in the men decide to do the work (though sadly, most don't). Every woman should read this book even if she hasn't been outright abused ...

A MUST HAVE
I picked this book up at random and boy! am I glad I did. I have recommended it to All my girlfriends both married and single. In our late 30's and early 40's we thought we knew it all, seen it all and bought the T shirts, but this book was so enlightening and totally worth every penny. It is down to earth, not overly moralistic and impractical. You will certainly see yourself in some of the ...
Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (and What It Says About Us)

Knopf

A Window into Human Psychology
- If you're interested in traffic, Tom Vanderbilt's book is for you. No other book on this subject is so readable and so accessible, and so recurrently interesting. Indeed, few nonspecialist writers even recognize "traffic" as a category--an extraordinary thing, considering how much time we spend in it. If you think you don't like traffic, Vanderbilt's book is for you. Chances are you don't ...

Still great after fifty years
How to Behave and Why is the book I would choose for 7-year-olds (as my grandaughter is) who have a tendency to cheat or lie. Perhaps it is the age but she must learn that she will lose friends and fun if she doesn't play fair. This book is gentle and understanding.
Why We Hate Us: American Discontent in the New Millennium

Dick Meyer
Crown
, 2008
A skewering, barbed, funny, and ultimately surprising book.
As a rural American reading, "Why We Hate Us," I found myself asking time and again: Who are these people that Meyer is presenting? These aren't the people in my world, in my community. I argued point after point with him in my inner-dialogue. But as I continued to read, and follow his line of reasoning, which is cogent and tightly woven, I had to cede one point after another. I am sorry to say ...

Wise Like A Fish
Lovers of fishing, or Oregon, or life, or the search for life's meaning should love this book. So should readers interested in thoughtful, creative and honest writing; or of clever, insightful and profound character development. Gus Orviston is an enduring main character, and his discovery of his brother, Bill Bob's, unique and beautiful self, by itself, makes the book worth reading. With a ...

Excellent, well written book
I will admit that it can be a bit technical for a few folks. His book makes you feel that he is teaching you in a classroom. The citations and references are informative.
Why Men Hate Going to Church

Where has this book been all my life?
My four brothers, husband, three sons and several grandsons have caused me many prayer-filled hours regarding reluctance for church going. This book assembles the issues and encourages us to review the church model and see how it pushs men away. A must-read for any pastor, priest, deacon, elder, Sunday School teacher, song leader, mom or grandma. Jesus, like many men today, might find the modern ...

It's a Must Have for Bipolar Sufferers
In "Why Am I Still Depressed" Dr. Phelps brings together in one place more really important information about Bipolar II, or what he refers to as Soft Bipolar, than has been done in terms that a layperson can understand. This book was recommended to my by the psychiatrist who treated me during a recent hospitalization as a "must read". It was amazing to pick up a book that described me and my ...

Why Do They Act That Way?: A Survival Guide to the Adolescent Brain for You and Your Teen
We have found this book to be extremely helpful. Raising a teenager is an amazing experience and it helps to have some expert, non partial advice that is backed by research. We especially appreciated the fact that the author does not offer excuses, but helps everyone remain responsible for their behavior, including parents. It was so helpful for us that we bought it as a gift for two different ...

Why Is It Always About You? : The Seven Deadly Sins of Narcissism

Sandy Hotchkiss
Free Press
, 2003
Perfectly titled volume!
If you run from the narcissist in your life, you'll always be running, because there's always another one waiting around the corner. I am not speaking about physical abuse or horrifying marriages. I'm talking about the self-absorbed monsters that we frequently have to deal with at work, socially, or (God forbid) our own families. It's better to be fully prepared to deal with those who somehow ...
