Great Building/Development Resource
Finally something on the most neglected part of so many construction projects: the landscape interface between a building and it's site. Not only does this book cover a huge geographic area for the subject of environmentally-sensitive building placement and landscape salvage/retention/revegetation, but it does it accurately. The techincal "how-to" steps are for professionals and homeowners alike, ...

fabulous introduction to implementing ECC
I bought this book because I was designing a cryptographic protocol, and wanted to know if I could use ECC in my design. It begins with an explanation of "traditional" public key cryptography (i.e., cryptography over prime fields), introduces binary fields and elliptic curves, shows how to perform computations over elliptic curves, puts this together into ECC protocols, and then includes very ...

the indispensable book for Lingo-Programmers
(excuse my english, I'm Swiss) Before purchasing this book or even knowing about it, I had some heavy problems in finding the right way (or a shorter one) to solve several problems in programming Multimedia-applications. I ordered this book and everything changed! It's descriptions are so easy (even when you aren't originally english-speaking!), because you just can read the text and know what ...

I am a gradute student in computer science and I have read a lot of books on this subject, including 1- Digital Image Compression, by Weidong Kou, 2- The Data Compression Book, by Mark Nelson, 3- JPEG Still Image Data Compression Standard, by Pennebaker. I have also browsed few other books on this subject, but one thing I can say for sure, that this is the best book ever written on the subject of ...

strong anthology reprinting legendary 1970s-1980s tales
CONAN THE SWORDSMAN, the latest reprint of the now legendary 1970s-1980s Conan revival, is a marvelous short story collection. Each story holds its own with the overall Conan mythos and most add depth to the celebrated character and his world. The delightful eight stories are well written with each tale co-authored by L. Sprague de Camp (had to be a Howard clone) with either Lin Carter or Bjorn ...

A READ WORTHY OF YOUR TIME
The lone survivor (Bat 21 Bravo) of a six-man crewed American warplane shot down by a surface-to-air missile parachutes near the DMZ and seeks cover to await recovery.

Everybody, everywhere should read it
This is a book to be read by everyone, not just city planners, not just ecologists, not just politicians or city administrators, but every city dweller all around the world. It is not too simple, it is not too complex; it addresses most important issues not just on the present problems of cities but, more important, on how to face them and on how to make more livable cities. It seems no one ...

We love this book!
This is a very hands-on and literature-based Kindergarten art book. It has a story, then 5-6 ideas of creative things to make that correlate with that story. It's so much fun! Stories include: The Gingerbread Boy, Androcles and the Lion, The Little Engine that Could, The Lion and the Mouse, and The Hare and the Tortoise. What a great way to combine storytime and art time!

Delightful and enlightening
I learned fly fishing and fly tying using my grandfather's books and gear back in the '70s, so I was already a little behind the times at the very point I started, but I've always enjoyed the sense of connection to past traditions that was inherent then. Somewhere along the way, I fell out of fly fishing for a decade or two, and when I returned, nothing was familiar anymore. Graphite rods, ...

Darrel T. (pen name used by Randall Garrett) Langart
Doubleday & Company
, 1963
A forgotten gem
"Darrel T. Langart" is a pseudodonym (and anagram) of the late Randall Garrett. Considering the popularity of Garrett's "Lord Darcy" stories, someone really ought to reprint this. How do you deal with an alien who has a perfect memory, and therefore can never "unlearn" something he already knows -- who knows that humans are inferior? The solution is, of course, obvious ...

Intercessor's Guidebook
This book was valuable to me as a scripture-based teaching tool; it prompted me to think in a new way, about the endless possibilities available to Spirit-filled followers of Jesus. The examples of actually using scripture to pray peaked my desire to learn new ways to communicate with God, and the chapter on becoming a vessel of honor, challenged me to make life-style changes that would please ...
