Jane Austen, Robert Bishop

Dutton Adult, 1985

Worth paying for on the Kindle
Kindle owners hopefully are aware of the wealth of free editions of the classics which are available through Feedbooks and other sources. I obtained a copy of P&P from feedbooks originally and while it was easy to get and the price was right, the overall quality of the text is not great. I've found several typos, presumably the result of OCR errors and it's somewhat distracting. Since P&P ...

Richard C Dorf, Robert H. Bishop

Prentice Hall, 2007

Great book for getting started
If you have never studied control systems (s transforms, z transforms, root locus) then this is a great starter book. Explanations are in simple language and accompany with nice illustrations. I love this book. This edition 11, has matlab examples after each chapter. But if you are already familiar and understand many control system concepts and want a more indept analysis or more theory and ...

Emmaus Road Publishing, 2004

Much needed
Today the number of Catholics that do no go to mass, or do not have a clear idea why go to mass at all, is immense. Catholic for a reason is an excellent tool in helping those Catholics to come to know and love the Faith they received at baptism. Great book!

Robert Bishop

Prentice Hall, 2006

Good book.
Good book and software. I am currently a physics student taking a class that uses this software. I am fairly impressed with both the book and the software. If you plan on buying the full version don't bother with the student version. If however you are like me going to school and don't plan on buying the full version anytime soon then the student version is well worth the money. Book is pretty ...

Robert Arneson, Gary Garrels, ...

Pictorial Review of Arneson's greatest works

He did drawings, paintings and sculptures. If you ever want to see an artist's ego reflected in his/her work, this book is a must. Excellent quality photographs and some interesting insites to the artist. ...
