ChefMD's Big Book of Culinary Medicine: A Food Lover's Road Map to Losing Weight, Preventing Disease, and ...18 reviews
John La Puma, Rebecca Powell Marx

Crown, 2008

Eating for health
Great book. Not boring at all like a lot of health books are written. I thought I knew it all on this subject but I learned so much more. I learned new things not discussed in other books or materials I have read. I will purchase more of these books and give them as gifts. That's how much I enjoyed the book and think this information should be shared with your loved ones.

Harper, 2008

WISDOM
THE ADVICE OF AN AKKADIAN FATHER TO HIS SON. (c. 2200 BCE): "Do not speak ill, speak only good. Do not say evil things, speak well of people. He who speaks ill and says evil---people will waylay him because of his debt to Shamash. Do not talk too freely, watch what you say. Do not express your innermost thoughts even when you are alone. What you say in haste you may regret later. Exert yourself ...
  
  











  



  
Bad Money: Reckless Finance, Failed Politics, and the Global Crisis of American Capitalism31 reviews
Kevin Phillips

Viking Adult, 2008

Makes you want to put your money in the mattress
Mr. Phillips hardly needs another glowing review, but his analysis will make you want to pull your money out of whatever U.S.-based investment it is in now, and stick it in the mattress (Don't! Inflation will eat it up). What blows me away is that Mr. Phillips wrote the book I wanted to publish. In fact, the prospectus I wrote at the end of last year to interest my publisher in such a work eerily ...
  
  











  



  
The Enchantress of Florence: A Novel24 reviews
Salman Rushdie

Random House, 2008

A splendid story celebrating the power of stories
"All men needed to hear their stories told," Salman Rushdie proclaims at one point in this marvelous adventure through India and Italy. "The Enchantress of Florence", a splendid story in and of itself, is all about the power of stories, the courage and inspiration people can muster from the tales they tell about themselves. The novel is also aware of how stories bend what is factually accurate ...
  
  











  



  
Catch-22823 reviews
Joseph Heller

Simon & Schuster, 1996

Great great book
This book is so good, my weak attempt at a review is not going to do it justice. But I'll try. I knew before I was half-way through that this is going to be a favorite and I plan to re-read it immediately. The writing is so fresh, the character studies so sharp, and the satire so relevant in today's increasingly bureaucratic (corporate) society, no wonder it was so hard for me to find a used ...

Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association224 reviews
American Psychological Association

American Psychological Association (APA), 2001

APA MANUEL fifth edition
The best thing that I ever did was to purchase the APA Manuel. It has helped me with formating and the proper way to cite in text and referance in APA format. This book is much better than the Diane Hacker book on APA.
  
  











  



  
The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism227 reviews
Naomi Klein

Picador, 2008

easy read for a hard idea
Naomi is a fabulous writer. She makes reading the sad truths of our greedy corporate culture easy to digest. Sadly, this book will make you weep to know the truth. Those of us with a conscience must read the book to atone for the sins of the neocon leaders and their terrorist ilk (e.g. cheney, reagan, bushs I and II, rumsfeld etc etc...see abu ghraib...see pinochet...see and not not remain ...

Atlas Shrugged1509 reviews
Ayn Rand

Plume, 1999

the story
I love this story. I understand that it is really about objective capitalism but I don't care. I'm a sucker for a long and detailed story about people, about life. The characters are expertly rendered. The fashion is used in a truly inspirational way. It brings a whole new layer the characters, especially Dagny. Rand makes you think about your life and how you react when faced with a ...
  
  











  



  
The Condition: A Novel4 reviews
Jennifer Haigh

Harper, 2008

Another Homerun by Jennifer Haigh
Jennifer Haigh is one of the finest writers today. None of her books are anything alike, it is amazing. I was engrossed from the first page, the family and characters were very interesting and real - I totally recommend this book.
  
  











  



  
The Memory Keeper's Daughter837 reviews
Kim Edwards

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2006

"Families have secrets they hide even from themselves..."
How appropriate I found this phrase printed on the back cover. As soon as I started the first chapter, my attention was held as if of by a spell, enthralling. Page after page, the story transcendently drowns you into a captivating and emotional whirlwind and there is no going back. 1964. Doctor David Henry and his wife Norah are happily married and expecting their first child. At the ...
  
  











  



  
Our Iceberg Is Melting: Changing and Succeeding Under Any Conditions61 reviews
John Kotter, Holger Rathgeber, ...

St. Martin's Press, 2006

Amusing & Enlightening
I am usually more into serious literature, but one of my team mates in an on-line course suggested that our group use this book for an educational leadership project. It was an excellent suggestion. Not only was the book "short and sweet", but within its pages, I could actually see myself and the role that I play within the structural system of my school. I am a die hard for doing things the "old ...

Caldwell B. Esselstyn

Avery, 2008

Imagine If Tim Russert had Read Esselstyn
It so happens that I was reading Chapter 5, "Moderation Kills", in PREVENT AND REVERSE HEART DISEASE by Esselstyn when I learned of the recent, untimely death of TV news host, Tim Russert, In this chapter, Esselstyn explains why the standard 'moderate' cardiac regiman as prescribed for Russert often is associated with sudden death - and why such death is preventable. I was drawn to the ...

Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America1076 reviews
Barbara Ehrenreich

Holt Paperbacks, 2002

It IS Realistic!
This was me! For those who reviewed the book and said that Ehrenreich was "unrealistic", I'm going to share my story. Several years ago my ex-boyfriend and I could have been in the book; we were each working a full-time job and he also had TWO part-time jobs at the same time (one after his full-time job and another on the weekends). Our jobs were in electronic sales at a big chain store and ...
  
  











  



  
Havana Nocturne: How the Mob Owned Cuba and Then Lost It to the Revolution2 reviews

William Morrow, 2008

A sure bet...
Crime novels abound. There's no question that we enjoy reading fiction and non-fiction about the gangster element. This is one historical presentation that is certain to please readers. Unlike other books that often rehash well-known facts about criminals and their actions, Havana Nocturne is an entertaining review of the historical activities of the Mob in Cuba from the mid-1940s until the ...
  
  











  



  
The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression99 reviews
Amity Shlaes

Harper Perennial, 2008

It Takes an Open Mind.
This book succinctly reveals that Socialism does not correct a Depression. And the Democratics' Policies only makes Depressions deeper and longer. I know, I lived through and survived the Great Depression, despite the Socialistic Programs imposed by Roosevelt.
