Excellent, also see the Congressional Deskbook
Deering and Smith's book is excellent. For how the Congress really works, see the Congressional Deskbook, which is updated every two years and comprehensively describes how Congress really works. I became aware of the Congressional Deskbook because of a review in last December's CHOICE, which described it as "A valuable, detailed, and highly functional synthesis of information about the ...

This book explains why risk management and internal controls in ANY organization are so important. Twothumbsup!
I liked this book very much. It was of interest to me because it explains why risk management and internal controls in ANY organization are so important. As a SCORE volunteer business coach I have to explain what is covered in this book from time to time. It's good for entrepreneurs to think in terms of internal accounting controls. This book is not written for entrepreneurs, though. It is ...

This book is a MUST HAVE for the serious improviser
Halpern has done it again! This book is excellent! If you're a serious improviser you need to get this book. "Truth in Comedy" is 5+ Stars and is a great book for any improviser, but "Art by Committee" takes it to the next level. Follow the exercises in this book and you will definitely see a boost in your performance level, confidence, and overall ability as an improviser... this book will take ...

Breaking Through the Illusions
This is not an easy work to review because there are two possible audiences. First, the people who are already outside the TV induced illusion of modern capitalist life will easily understand this work, and revel in the spontaneous, youthful enthusiasm of the authors who are seeking to put life on a genuine human track. Secondly, everyone else who is still sleepwalking through the TV induced ...

Competing Principals: Committees, Parties, and the Organization of Congress
Forrest Maltzman
University of Michigan Press
, 1999
Since Woodrow Wilson, political scientists have recognized the importance of congressional committees in the policy-making process. Congressional committees often determine what legislation will reach the floor of the House or Senate and what form that legislation will take. In spite of the broad consensus on the importance of congressional committees, there is little agreement on what explains committee action. Committees are alternately viewed ...

just OK.
unless your professor requires this exact book, i'd get Federal Rules of Evidence + Your State rules of evidence combo book. if you don't, then this FRE book is just fine, like all the others. advisory notes are nice, but you know all the rules and notes are on nexis and westlaw. don't buy this if you can afford not to; otherwise, it's a fine book.

a superb book
This is a wonderful book. Its content and structure are fascinating. I learned a great deal about the traditional yeshiva world and its challenges from the modern Jewish world. Each character in this novel has something important to say. I looked forward to returning to it each time I put it down. In a word, a wonderful book without a word wasted in its 155 pages.

Joins A Distinguished Group
"The Committee", by Sun Allah Ibrahim joins the work of writers including Franz Kafka, Albert Camus, and Fyodor Dostoevsky. The comparison that is most easily drawn is to Kafka's, "The Trial". While this may be the easiest parallel to draw it suggests this is just a variation on a theme and that would be a disservice to this book and the author. The unnamed narrator first petitions a committee. ...

Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine

Very informative
This book is really great! I like it because it addresses my questions as a Vegetarian, but isnt strictly so. It's for everyone. Most of the books out there dont go so far as to tell you about nutrition, and mainly give recipies and are mostly for meat eating diets. My son hates vegetables, and is a picky eater and I found that this book helped me with those issues instead of glossing over it ...
