It's exactly what you are looking for
The fact that you have looked up this book and are reading the reviews is an excellent sign that you are ready for this book. My challenge is to share my feeling that this is a "wonderful" and "you must read this" book without sounding like another boring cliche. So how can I say this without saying it? For me, this book came into my life at just the right time and the right place. It is not ...

Terrific Book!
This is a fantastic read! The book discusses the plight our society faces when the bill comes due on pensions and health benefits for many corporations, city and state governments. It prompted me to look at the state of Nevada pension plan for teachers. The plan is grossly underfunded and guess who gets to pay for these benefits when the plan runs out of money. Me, the taxpayer. As of June 30, ...
7 Weeks to Safe Social Drinking: How to Effectively Moderate Your Alcohol Intake

A Winner for Anyone Questioning Their Drinking
This book has been a lifesaver for me. For years I enjoyed social drinking without problems, but the last couple of years I've questioned if I was drinking too much. This program showed me how to pace my drinking, how to make a drinking plan in advance before I started drinking(which really worked)and how to stick to my limit fairly easily. It also made alcohol less important to me - a huge step ...
Perfectly Legal: The Covert Campaign to Rig Our Tax System to Benefit the Super Rich--and Cheat Everybody Else

Easy but difficult read
I cannot offer enough enthusiasm in the written word to tell all Americans to read this book. It is easy and clear reading; but, I also add difficult because I could read only a few pages before having to take a breather. The book, by its revelations, so incenses me that I feel as though the top of my head will blow off. How can we, as adult citizens, allow the wealthy and their hirelings ...

Great Book, really works
This diet realy works and is surprisingly "painless" for a big eater like me, I was amazed at the results, although I have almost 40 lbs to lose, it gave me good head start. You MUST follow the directions religously though, it's the only way it will work :-)
The Marriage Benefit: The Surprising Rewards of Staying Together

A must-read for marrieds
I loved this book. One of my favorite pieces of advice is "celebrate your differences." To me, this was a real mind opener: you don't have to turn him/her into a clone of yourself; differences are okay and even enriching; improving a bad pattern is more a matter of modeling something better than trying to change your partner. Another great recommendation is "have real sex"--messy, funny, human ...

I have life to look forward to again
If a person WANTS to get well - at all costs except another Doctor's visit, this book is invaluable. I was looking forward to the next 40 years in misery fighting chronic pain. This book was a great help in discovering what I needed to do to stop the cycle. I'm still sticking with green juice until I know for sure everything I can or cannot tolerate, but there is definitely a light at the end ...

Good Research, Poor Conclusion
Aviva has loads of well documented studies that say one thing, vaccines do not work. If you do any bit of thorough research on vaccines, you will see that they do more harm than good. Aviva's book contains that research, so what's the problem? Her conclusion. After heaps of evidence about how harmful, or infective vaccines are, Aviva does not speak out against them, but rather says ...

Outstanding Job Rachel Gathercole: Excellent For Minorities
Thus far, this book has been extremely: informational, detailed oriented, and reassuring. It gives you an opportunity to know and understand just what socialization "looks" like in the day to day of lives of homeschoolers versus these false assumptions many have about home schooling being isolated endeavor. I also like that fact that's it's not bogged down in any religiosity from any ...

Healthy eating
I love the food. I never realized there were so many different Herb and spices and what they were for. I always used Garlic salt instead of real Garlic. I replaced our regular salt with sea salt.Our cooking oil is now extra virgin olive oil. I am not only enjoying great food but healthier meals and I feel great.

Very Helpful and Objective
I found this book helpful and objective. For example, this book explains that Hep B becomes a danger when your child is a teenager and makes the choice to use intravenous drugs or have unprotected sex. And by the time infants become teenagers those shots they had as infants are not effective anymore. Facts like this are very helpful. I am only sorry that I was not aware of this sooner since my ...

The information offered here will be useful whether you are a neophyte or seasoned gardener. I've been gardening for most of my 72 years and have nearly100 ...

Most comprehensive
A most comprehensive treatment of Outlook. Extremely well suited for an experienced Outlook user, with many details on the use in a server/business environment. Describes the interrelationship with Windows Outlook Express. Probably a little too comprehensive for the single system user just trying to read and write a few email messages. Subject matter is exceptionally well presented and ...

Solutions for Adults with Asperger Syndrome
This is a great book. We need more books about adults with Autism and Asperger Syndrome. It would be nice to find a book about people who are older than 50 years old to see how they cope in their later years and to see how sucessful their livies have been, especially after their parents have passed away and they no longer have people looking out for their welfare. Thanks again for the great ...
