Simple Love : A Book of Poetry

Refreshing!
I found this book to be very refreshing and uplifting as well as erotic. He uses eroticism just enough to get you to the edge without KNOCKING you over. My favorite by far was Check One, because of its simplicity. Love it!

Stories in Stone

Stoners of the world unite!
I'm reviewing an advanced reading copy of Stories in Stone. I read somewhere that IQ scores are rising and have been for years now. I don't doubt it, but I feel that the broad-spectrum rise has more to do with the sudden proliferation of new kinds of technology than it does with a strengthening of the US education system or improved nutrition. The report went on to say that the increase is ...

A Naturalist's Guide to Canyon Country
I have been visiting the four-corners every summer for 25 years and this is one of the most delightful books I have seen yet! In fact I just returned from my four-week summer 2000 trip and this Guide was my constant companion. Of the many guides and books I have collected over the years, this was the one that I carried in my Jeep, kept with me in my tent, and consulted on my hikes. As an ...

Lots of detailed info & resources. Sloppy editing.
This book is Pre -tsunami. & Pre-enviromental-ban for Sipadan CONS: 1) This edition is basically the same as the 2nd edition. If you have #2 then you don't really need #3. Just call ahead and make sure the LDS info is correct. 2) Although some of the information may have been updated since the 2nd edition, sloppy editing ruins the book. Maps are not on the page indexed and are not on ...
The Street-Smart Naturalist: Field Notes from Seattle
5 reviews

Westwiinds Press
, 2005
Fantastic local history and science
I am loudly and joyously singing the praises of "The Street-Smart Naturalist: Field Notes from Seattle"; this is the sort of book about Seattle's natural history that I was particularly searching for. Keeping mostly within the city limits, David Williams talks about natural boglands and bald eagles, the fossils and stones that make up Seattle's skyscrapers, naturally occuring plants and recent ...

Information technology in a global society
As a teacher of a course entitled "Information technology in a global society" i have found this book an excellent resource for both myself and my students alike. It's simple enough for an entry level reader (I have had kids as young as 11 discussing the ethical considerations presented in the book). While on the other hand it contains enough specifics and case studies to make it a suitable ...

TEM Bible
I bought this book as soon as I found out I would likely get a job working with TEMs. I had already bought a very physics oriented book by Reimer that is also excellent, but this book is simply a joy to read. Ample color diagrams and real micrographs together with witty, keen narrative make it the first technical book in years that I have read till the wee hours of the morning. I think that if ...

Understand "double consciousness"
This was required reading for a graduate course in the Humanities. William Edward Burghardt Du Bois (February 23, 1868 - August 27, 1963) was an American civil rights activist, leader, Pan-Africanist, sociologist, educator, historian, writer, editor, poet, and scholar. He became a naturalized citizen of Ghana in 1963 at the age of 95. David Levering Lewis, a biographer, wrote, "In the course of ...
MR.GEORGE ELIOT:A BIOGRAPHY OF GEORGE HENRY LEWES

Franklin Watts
, 1983
Avoid reading this "biography"
George Henry Lewes was a very fascinating man, with a broad range of knowledge. He and George Eliot were unmarried partners in Victorian England. Unfortunately, this "biography" is an extended gossip column, manufacturing drama wherever possible and avoiding, at all cost, writing about Lewes in an intelligent and interesting way. The author spends a great deal of time making snide remarks ...

An excellent textbook
This is the fourth edition of the classic text that appears to be one of the most authoritative and comprehensive on gastrointestinal pathology currently available. The book is written by eight authors who can be regarded as some of the world's most eminent gastrointestinal pathologists. The overall style of the book remains similar to the previous edition in that conditions affecting the ...

Lamar Archaeology
Pretty informative, although some of it was a bit technical. Much more needs to be written about these cultures.

Finally a book that addresses telephone security
I am a senior engineer for network security operations. I read "Voice and Data Security" (VaDS) to learn more about vulnerabilities in the voice world. A search for "voice security" here yields four results, of which VaDS is the only in-print title. Although I would have preferred VaDS to focus solely on voice security issues, I still recommend it as the only modern published reference for ...
