The Best out of Four
I bought four books on Acrobat 5, and this one is by far the best. It is written conceptually. It appeals to the senses as well as providing an education. Taking vast amounts of information and refining it so that it is presented simply yet thoroughly. I enjoy reading it. I also bought Classroom in a book by the Adobe Creative Team and it is work. I am sure over time I will derive a lot from ...

Absolute Necessity for Independent Publishers
I bought this book and use it extensively in formatting books for Amazon Kindle Books. It is comprehensive and easy to understand. In addition, Mr. Tallent has been more than forthcoming when I've asked him questions through his web site. This book, in my opinion should be on the shelves of every independent publisher entering the new age of e-publishing.

The Holy Grail for any Web Analytics Junkie
I've been promising this book review of "Web Analytics: An Hour a Day" by Avinash Kaushik for near six months and it has taken every week of six months to finally make it all the way through this book. I've spoken many times about Avinash and his wonderful blog "Occam's Razor" which this book being the pinnacle piece of the writings on that blog. Avinash is an analytical genus and the knowledge ...

Way Better than the Da Vinci Code
Douglas Wood has already summarized and evaluated this book, justly praising its historical worth. I'd like to add a note about its shock value; in a moment of history when anti-semitism seems to be a joke in some people's minds, surely this is a book that might make the pain and folly of bigotry "real" in terms of a single family, and therefore accessible to readers who can't empathize with mass ...

The youngest of four sisters, her perspectives as a child and through her teen years, along with observations of her sisters' marriages, gives the reader a unique view into these religion-based cults. Taught to accept without question the teachings ...

Life changing
I've had this on my bookshelf for years and never reached for it until my life was in shambles. Having grown up thinking I had strong faith in God and could accept His will for me, this book spoke to my heart and allowed me to see that I had only been managing my circumstances. After years of self-absorption and self-pity, I am now climbing out of that to understand the futility of trying to ...

Take This Bread
This was my first Sara Miles' book and I thought it was wonderful. She vividly describes the frustrations and joys of working in and outside the church. She describes how bread, Lord's Supper Bread, brought her/his to church. This is for anyone who has ever been frustrated with her own church and who has found that serving the poor is the only way to save yourself from a life that just doesn't ...

Healing Conversations: What to Say When You Don't Know What to Say

Helpful for anyone
As a therapist I've learned through long experience that often the most difficult but helpful thing I can offer others is the gift of listening with full attention. That's very difficult for us because our own emotions run away with us when we're with someone in pain. We get scared or angry and we want to make the problem go away--by offering advice or by changing the subject. Nance Guilmartin ...

The best functional guide to lean
I searched high and low for a book on Lean manufacturing to better understand its application and function. To many authors go into theory and academic explanations or dialogs of Japanese words. This was what I was looking for! I found this book so valuable that I made it required reading for my entire staff. We have now started on the lean journey.

Soul Graffiti is a gentle book, one that I was sad to finish.
There is a word that you rarely hear nowadays - gentle. Our times seem to call out people & things that are bold, that are fierce, that can do things that get noticed. You can see this fierce world raging in urban streets, in popular media and (sadly) in many communities of faith. Mark Scandrette is gentle - in a way that pulls people into his story and in the process a much bigger story. ...

The most helpful Y2k preparedness book out there.
Finally, a book written specifically for those of us who live in the city (that's 70% of us)! We have amassed quite a survival library, but we find the information in this book to be the simplest, most accurate and the most helpful. I took it with me to a preparedness specialty store and even the owner was surprised by how many questions which he couldn't previously answer were dealt with in ...

This book broke my brain
I've read five books by this guy so far, in a very short period of time. They all challenge you and make you think, but this one kinda broke my little brain. Probably in a good way, but I'm still a little shaken up by it. Most people live in a light veneer of "everything's going to be fine!" and "the powers that be will protect us!" I've never bought all that, but have still settled into a ...

Switched mode power supplies
Mr. Basso has done a wonderful job in writting this book. Many times to get all the import information on the design of Switch mode power supplies one needs to read numerous articles/books. Mr. Basso has managed to gather all important information and put it in one book. The book has all the relevant equations showing all derivations. It also has numerous design examples step by step.

I purchased this book after reading Amazon.com reviews and was not disappointed. Gulshan Esther's story not only testifies to Jesus as healer but also gives insight into the Muslim religion. It is well written and a remarkable story of Christ's power in relationship to man's pursuit of Him. Like "The Heavenly Man," I completed this biography with a desire to read it again at a later date ...

This book aims to solve the mysteries that many site owners feel about the performance of their website. Some owners don't know any better, some don't know where to start, and still others rely on false metrics to make their site seem as though it is doing better than it actually ...

Excellent book on financial planing and retirement
Bravo! This book is a must read if you're planning to retire wealthy, or at least securely. And...

I wish I had read this when I was in college... I would be $100,000 wealthier. - Dave
