Swimmers: Seventy International Photographers

1 review
Hans Christian Adam, Stephen Dobyns

Aperture, 1988

Yay for sports photography
Not JUST sports. But people in action is hard to make interesting...especially when most of your body is in the water! These are great photographs. YES, there are nudes! My favorites are the older photos, though. From the historical and revered Aperture Publishers. Originally $55, oversized hardback, 94 pgs.

I am surprised no one has yet post a review for this one....
Honestly, I just got the book today. But guess what, I've been glued to my desk for 5 hours by now... First of all, if you know what it feels like to have ALL of your questions answered regarding the webpage you're working on then you know how I feel right now. This book is every bit competent as it was written to be - an html "reference." I am no newbie in html but still, I like how the ...

Rough Guides, 2003

Boarding Bible!
I mean, what can I say? Snowboarding is a Religion, and this book really is the Bible. I don't think there is a stone left unturned with this one. Anyone interested in Snowboarding who lives in the USA and doesn't own this book may as well give in now, and order it. The research and quality of information on hand here is perfect for anyone who boards. Great bedside reading too!

Wrox Press, 1997

Very Useful so far in learning to tie HTML to ASP w/vbscript
The short time I have been using this book I find that I can find very useful information for what I need to do with ASP. Very good examples. Very well layed out book. The number of yellow stickies shows me that I have found useful and specific examples relevant to my needs. The book uses VBScript which is just what I want. Even walks you through creating a COM component.

Better Covenant

Christian Fellowship Publishing, Watchman Nee

Christian Fellowship Publishing, 1994

The New Covenant -- How God Wishes Man to Approach Him
This book gives a simple, clear, illuminating perspective that will change your view of Christianity forever. The basic premise is that God has the ability to limit himself...to bind himself...by making a promise to us. Once he has made his promise, we can take hold of it, and hold him to it. Because he cannot violate his own nature, he must be righteous and fulfill his promise. A ...

Burne-Jones, Victorian Artist-Dreamer

Stephen Wildman, Edward Coley Burne-Jones, ...

Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1998

Here's a sumptuous feast of color and fantasy
This is a real eye opener of a book if you are looking for an in depth retrospective of the artist's body of work! Burne-Jones is at last receiving his fair due of recognition as witnessed by the recent Met show in the Summer of 1998. This book showcases his many merits, including a unerring color and design technique applied to fantastical subjects. What makes the book so irresistible is the ...

Wizards of the Coast, 2001

I hate 3rd edition, but love this!
I've been playing D&D 2nd edition since I was 12 yr's old. I didn't (and still don't) like 3rd edition. I bought this book because I was seduced by the books and I flipped out and NEEDED to RP in the WOT world. They list all the hero's but what about the Forsaken? How do you make those terangreal's? (prob. spelled that wrong) Despite these little problems, I HATED 3rd edition, and ...

Ramses: Under the Western Acacia (Isis)

Christian Jacq, Stephen Thorne

ISIS Audio Books, 2001

Securing the Peace
In the concluding story of the Ramses saga the middle-aged king is under pressure from the Hittites to prove peace is at hand by marrying the emperor's daughter. This would mean renouncing Iset the Fair, who became the queen after the passing of Nefetari, the beloved queen of Egypt. This presented a real dilemma for the king: nothing short of peace was at stake but the king must uphold the law of ...

What We Need Today
Given the complexities in life and politics today, I felt that I needed book of guidance in political matters -- from a Christian point of view. I am glad to have found it in this book. This book brings together a collection of academic essays from leading thinkers. I was moved by each of the articles. I was particularly moved by the article of Christian Kim who spelled out what Government is ...

The Tinderbox

Hans Christian Andersen

Candlewick, 2007

Wonderful rendition of Anderson's tale
Whoever reviewed this book in "editorial" needs to have their eyes examined. Grotesque watercolors? Inept humor? What are they talking about? This is the FIRST version of the Tinderbox by H.C. Anderson, one of my favorite fairy tales that I've really found to be pleasing. The three dogs with humoungous eyes are delightfully fantastic, and the hero and heroine well rendered. The more ...

Audio Literature, 1999

A tantalizing blend of action, intrigue and suspense
The prologue of The Insider is set in August 1994, in an alligator infested Louisiana swamp. There, a poacher named Neville has an encounter with a man piloting an expensive boat. The stranger claims to be an inspector with an oil company, there to inspect gauges on the company's wellheads. This sounds fishy to Neville, since he doesn't recall the company having any wellheads there. The ...
