books about: decent     books:       Rules of Civility & Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation10 reviews George Washington bnpublishing.com, 2007 Ageless advice for "civil" conduct. Whether this little 30 page book is worth the price or whether George Washington copied these as a penmanship excercise from an english translation of some 16th century French Jesuit writings is immaterial. After you read these "Rules of Civility" you will feel like carrying this little red book around with you and handing it to rude people to read Rule # 1 "Every action done in company aught to ...             Washington's Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior In Company And Conversation1 review Cico, 2007 Very cool!

Have you ever pondered the question, What is a decent society? Does the thought keep you awake at night, wondering, is the society in which I live decent?, and if not, do we sincerely ask oursleves, for example, am I decent anyway? and if not, and so on, do I need to do anything to change that situation?

When this book was originally published in the late 1970s, it caused a firestorm of controversy due to its savage critique of the conduct of both the CIA and military advisory units within Vietnam. Written by a career CIA officer who resigned in disgust over the ways in which American policy both undermined and betrayed the very purposes we were supposed to be in Vietnam to promote, the book ...             Towards Full and Decent Employment1 review Zed Books, 2008 Full employment is urgent now. The subject of the book "Towards Full and Decent Employment" is very timely in late 2008. The book itself was published in 2007. Distinguished contributors wrote it under the auspices of the United Nations. Most of its chapters are written in a scholarly style, which can make it difficult for the average reader, among which I count myself. I have only had time to look at several chapters. The ...             George Washington's Rules of Civility (and Decent Behaviour in Company and Conversation)3 reviews George Washington Digireads.com, 2006 Thanks, this is great. It seems to me that it would be better that this book should have some comments about the author George Wshington.             Restoring Hope: Decent Care in the Midst of HIV/AIDS Palgrave Macmillan, 2008 "Restoring Hope" is a grounding of decent care in a human-ethical tradition, providing a unique interfaith convergence of ideas at a time when religion is said to be at the source of so much conflict.This book provides a unique approach to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, linking health and religion. This book is the result of a global consultation and has international appeal. It identifies the ethical foundations of the 'right to health' and the Alma ...             Decent Interval: An Insider's Account of Saigon's Indecent End Told by the Cia's Chief Strategy Analyst in ...9 reviews Frank Snepp University Press of Kansas, 2002 A Classic, for good reasons In the 31 years since the "Fall of Saigon" no book has come out that better explains the events of April 1975 more thoroughly or more engagingly. Snepp had the advantage of actually being not only in Saigon for several years before and during the collapse but of being in the CIA. His insider's view is fascinating and honest. A must read for anyone interested in the topic.             Social Rights Under the Constitution: Government and the Decent Life Cecile Fabre Oxford University Press, USA, 2000 This book theoretically examines the recent and topical debates over democracy and social rights, arguing that there are four fundamental rights that should be constitutionalized; minimum income, housing, healthcare, and education. The theoretical discussion is explored within an analysis of important legal cases.             A Decent, Orderly Lynching: The Montana Vigilantes9 reviews Frederick Allen University of Oklahoma Press, 2004 A fair and balanced - and thorough - look at the Montana vigilantes One tends to associate the dark legacy of lynching almost exclusively with the South of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but in point of fact the most extensive episode of vigilante justice in American history actually took place in the Montana territories in the 1860s. The Montana vigilantes have long been hailed as heroes in Montana (Montana Highway Patrolmen, for example, still bear a ...             Decent exposures Peter Simon Wingbow Press : distributed by Book People, 1974             Clean and Decent: The Fascinating History of the Bathroom and the Water-Closet1 review Lawrence Wright Penguin Global, 2005 Completely Hygienic! Who would have thought there was so much to learn about toilets and bathroom culture? This is a great primer for those who wonder just how people did bathe and perform 'ablutions' before the days of indoor plumbing and water-trapped toilets for all (or at least those of us in western countries). Written in 1960, it assumes a bit more familiarity than most of us have with English-style boilers ...             Halfway Decent Sinners4 reviews Michael Cleary WordTech Communications, 2005 Exceptional poetry, highly recommended The back cover photo of Michael Cleary captures a man with twinkling eyes and mischievous smile. His poetry reflects that humor, but Cleary's work is multi-faceted. One critic extols his "eloquent exploration of our flawed human condition." This book is, indeed, drawn from a world he observes with a keen eye, then mourns or celebrates through a facile weaving of words.
