Refreshing and Unique
I was delightfully surprised by a Patterson book that escapes the confines of his usual murder mystery novels and suspends the very reality that makes many of his other novels so powerful. I related greatly to Jane as a child, and it brought back many of my own painful memories that were good to visit in a positive environment. The authors didn't dwell on the negative and made what could have ...
The Princeton Companion to Mathematics

A major event in mathematical publishing
The Princeton Companion to Mathematics is such an extraordinary book that I am still amazed that the chief editor, Timothy Gowers, managed to pull it off. The renowned mathematician Doron Zeilberger announced that if he could take only one book with him to a desert island, it would be the Princeton Companion to Mathematics. Why such high praise? Simply put, the PCM gives a single-volume ...

The Non-Twilight Companion
This book was a waste of my money. I am a huge fan of Twilight. No wonder Stephenie Meyers didn't approve this book. All it has is quiz's that do not relate to the books, or movie. Also as other reviews for this book warned, Edward bites Bella. Not even close. All I can say, is that I wasted $$ on this book.
Paintings in Proust: A Visual Companion to In Search of Lost Time

The perfect companion to Proust
As a dedicated Proustian for twenty happy years, I have read his long novel several times but this new book by Eric Karpeles has taken my pleasure to a new level. Although I enjoy looking at paintings, I have a very limited knowledge of art history and, as a result many of Proust's allusions and even many descriptions were wasted on me. Vermeer's `View of Delft' is such an important part of the ...

Valuable book for Breastfeeding Moms!
I found this book to be very useful. The appendix of drugs that are safe to take while breastfeeding is invaluable when you are sick, but scared to take anything for fear of hurting your baby. This book has informative sections on latching baby on, solutions to common problems such as sore nipples, as well as information on newborn jaundice. I would recommend this book for any breastfeeding or ...

A Wonderful Glimpse into the Process
Never before had I seen that much thought and effort go into a project. It was January 1985 and I was representing DC Comics to the British talent. Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons and I spent a delightful afternoon reviewing the project and Dave showed me sketches for the characters, the covers and even a marketing campaign that was as sophisticated as it was smart. It's a terrific that so much of ...

This be a good book you scurvy Pirate!
This is a must-have for all you scurvy pirate dogs out there. It's chocked full of cool things that are part of the book, but not just printed on the pages. Like hidden treasure maps, a bag of gold dust, letters from pirates that are in compartments which are secured by tied yarn strings attached within its pages and a real working compass built into the cover. Not to mention lots of cool ...

My Baking Bible
I received this book as a gift this past Christmas, and it is by far the most-used cookbook I own. I have a special penchant for baking, but am only still learning (before this cookbook, I'd only ever really baked cookies). I can say, then, that this cookbook is excellent for the learning baker. This is the book I used to learn to bake bread (like their delicious and easy Vermont Maple ...

For the dead travel fast
"Dracula" was not the first vampire novel, nor was it Bram Stoker's first book. But after years of research, Stoker managed to craft the ultimate vampire novel, which has spawned countless movies, spinoffs, and books that follow the blueprint of the Transylvanian count. Eerie, horrifying and genuinely mysterious, this is a book that was crying out for the kind of loving annotation that "The ...

I am quite pleased with the easy to follow information in this book. Really love the fact that they have menus and recipes also. This makes following this life style ALOT easier for me. My husband and I both are impressed with our new eating regimes and although we are not the SAME blood type I am not having any difficulty making meals we can both share and enjoy. And we have both lost ...

Superb
I have been using point and shoot cameras for some time now but decided to make the leap to an SLR. I bought the XSi without knowing anything about SLR cameras. I just knew I wanted to learn how to take better pictures and had read reviews that stated the XSi was a great entry level camera. When I picked up this book, I was looking for something that would be pretty basic, but also get into ...
