This is a sweet story. Though short it was a good story. The characters were believable.
Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance

Atul Gawande
Picador
, 2008
A humble and thought-provoking account of performance
Gawande has a skill at communicating his quest to become a better surgeon, in a way that is inspiring to those of us in non-surgical pursuits. The stories are as interesting as a good fiction, and the message is as relevant as a properly applied fable. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

The prefect book for any couple
Tara Parker Pope has nailed what makes a relationship special and how to keep it that way. She really gets it--- to make a marriage work, you have to work at it, but it doesn't need to be a chore. This book should be handed out with every marriage license and given to anyone who is celebrating their first or fiftieth year together. And of course to all single people who think marriage is a bore ...

THE Book to Ease Your Mind about Natural Childbirth
I loved this book and used it to help convince my husband that homebirth attended by a midwife was a safe and viable option for our family. There is so much rhetoric & medical propoganda that scares people into thinking its irresponsible or risky to have a homebirth. Happy to say we had a beautiful birth experience and my husband wouldn't change it for the world. Contains lots of facts & figures ...

Great read even for the non-religious
What I love about Joel Osteen's books and sermons is that they are joyful, optimistic, often humorous and preach without being "preachy." He has a real gift and charisma when it comes to the simple solutions to a happy life. Along with his book "It's Your Time," I find myself reading and re-reading a few pages at a time...to sort of "top off my tank" with spiritual affirmation. If you want to ...

Good Ideas and Tools
I read this book the week of 12/14/2009. As with any opinion, it is only my opinion and these reviews will vary depending on who reads the book and what the reader is looking for. I was looking for ways to improve my needs assessment skills. This book certainly achieved this goal for me. On a 1 to 5 scale, 5 being the best: Readability: 3 I could handle about thirty minutes of ...

Very helpful book!
I recently bought this book after seeing a coworker with it recently and ordered it as soon as I came home. Since it is a pocket guide there aren't a lot of explanations on why companies receive certain ratings, but I actually like that because I can get on the website and do my own research and really learn and understand how to use the book. Great references and great time and effort but into ...
Woe Is I: The Grammarphobe's Guide to Better English in Plain English

A fun way to learn grammar
It is hard to believe that a college professor would choose, for a text book, a book that is this much fun to read. I am taking a ministry of writing class in divinity school and we are using this book as a grammar review. I have already learned some "rules" that I don't remember learning in my Engilish classes years ago. O'Conner makes the "rules" easy to remember.

Please Read
Personally, I believe that being a parent is one of the most important jobs on Earth. Seems rather obvious to me, but it's amazing how many people think that just because you can physically father a child, it qualifies you to be a Real father. We study for new jobs, we study for the SAT's, we even study the manual on how to hook up our new surround sound, but doesn't raising a child with good ...

Fantastic ESL tutor resource
As an ESL (English as a Second Language) tutor in a school district that has no curriculum in place and has no available resources for me to use, I have to find my own. This book is amazing! My students in middle school and high school are learning so much from this book. It is fantastic and I plan to use it daily, through the end of the school year. So many things are explained simply and ...

I Don't Have to Make Everything All Better by Gary B. Lundberg
Great book, great authors. I started to say that every parent should have a copy of this book, but in reality EVERYONE needs a copy of this book. We all have those in our lives that think we need to fix things for them - when in reality they need to fix things themselves. This book arrived in great shape ahead of schedule.

Better bones is only part of the benefit
Coming from a family with lots of osteoporosis, I stumbled on this book and WOW is it different from the usual story. The usual story goes like this: "you're getting older, you're in menopause, that means you're bound to lose bone, you can either accept it and stop doing all the fun stuff that could break your bones (like riding horses, which is my life) or take this pill (Fosamax, Boniva, ...
