Princeton University Press, 2008 Appeals to the Eye and to the Intellect SARGENT IN ITALY does what many catalogues set out to accomplish but few achieve - document a magnificent exhibition while creating an art history book of great substance.

Gould University Press of Kansas, 2004 Excellent overview of Presidency from McKinley to GW Bush This book is both erudite and accessible, and it's an excellent survey of the modern Presidency, which Gould, a respected University of Texas historian, points out has been transformed in roughly the past hundred years from an intimate, folksy, at times nearly one-man operation into an unwieldy, unworkable, and dangerously out-of-touch apparatus that has far less to do with running the country ...             When Cultures Collide: Leading Across Cultures8 reviews Richard D. Lewis Nicholas Brealey Publishing, 2005 Excellent This is an excellent book. From its marketing, I thought that "When Cultures Collide: Managing Successfully Across Cultures" pertained specifically to dealing with people of different nationalities in the business place. And indeed, it is a most useful book for that purpose. However, I was struck by how much one could apply Lewis' analyses to other situations, for example, dealing with people of ...             The Power of Art2 reviews Richard L.

Vintage, 2001 Love Is Irreducible The eloquence and clarity with which Lewis, Amini, & Lannon present their general theory of love is almost as impressive as their dexterity in reducing something as elusive as love into a readable 230 pages. The authors initiate their discussion by describing the evolution of the human brain and the "brains" that comprise it: the reptilian brain, the limbic brain, and the neocortical brain, ...             Educational Psychology: A Practitioner-Researcher Model of Teaching (with InfoTrac®) Richard Parsons, Stephanie Lewis Hinson, ... Wadsworth Publishing, 2000 While covering the basic concepts of psychological theory as it applies to education, child development, human learning and behavior, classroom management and assessment, this text is written from the point of view that teaching is both an art and a science.

Other reviewers have already done a great job of summarizing the plot, so I'll just say that this gripping young adult novel about the tsunami is so much more than a heart-thumping page-turner.
