Threshold Editions, 2008 Great dissertation on supply side economics The authors have written an insightful and meticulously detailed treatise on the effect supply side economics has had on our economy and way of life over the past 3 decades. There are many pertinent graphs and charts, and all explanations are thorough and logical. The lefties will despise this book, but now that Obama is the President elect, I guess we'll actually get to see if the authors' ...             America Alone: The End of the World As We Know It501 reviews Mark Steyn Regnery Publishing, 2008 Every American should read this book America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It, by Mark Steyn, is one of the most important books I've read in the last several years. I believe it should be read by all Americans and Europeans. Steyn looks at demography and discovers some chilling statistics - the birth rate of non-Muslim Europeans is well below replacement rates whereas the birth rates among Muslims, including European ...             The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism121 reviews Andrew Bacevich Metropolitan Books, 2008 Bacevich This book is a profound analysis of the shenanigans the outgoing administration played on the American public. As well as an honest criticism of our own shortcomings as citizens when we let policy makers lead us astray.             Where the Sidewalk Ends 30th Anniversary Edition: Poems and Drawings74 reviews HarperCollins, 2004 Heart and humor A completely magical collection! The imagination and wit of Shel Silverstein never ceases to amaze me as he does anything to make kids laugh (and, to my eternal gratitude) educate them. Make no mistake, the man is too intelligent to be just silly. There is intelligence to each and every poem, even if it is ust the word structure. As a teacher, I best appreciate this due to the different ...             The Road (Oprah's Book Club)1600 reviews Cormac McCarthy Vintage Books, 2007 Apocalyptic Love Cormac McCarthy amazingly makes the relationship between father and son remarkably warm in the cold environs of post-apocalyptic United States - after the bomb or something similar has incinerated all of nature. The two main characters, each nameless and referred only as man and boy, allow us to watch their journey on the "Road" in the world we pray never to know. The book is merely a ...             The End of America: Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot188 reviews Naomi Wolf Chelsea Green Publishing, 2007 Concise and compelling I thought I'd heard all I could of the political, military and social commentary of our time, but I gave this book a chance. What an excellent book, compelling, well-voiced and the most concise presentation of the socio-pilitical ills brought about by our current administration. Scary and provoking.             Wastelands: Stories of the Apocalypse24 reviews Stephen King, Cory Doctorow, ... Night Shade Books, 2008 A fine collection of Apocalypse stories by great authors With anthologies, I normally list the Table Of Contents, however because it can be viewed by rolling your mouse over the second available image below the book picture, I won't list it. There are 22 stories in this collection, by such authors as Stephen King, George R.R. Martin, Orson Scott Card, Nancy Kress, and many more. Each story begins with a short paragraph of notes and achievements by ...             Temple At The Center Of Time: Newton's Bible Codex Finally Deciphered and the Year 201215 reviews David Flynn Prophecy Publications, 2008 The Lost Temple of Solomon If you are studying the history of the Lost Temple of Solomon and when the third temple will be built, this is the book for you.             World Without End416 reviews Ken Follett NAL Trade, 2008 Love It I totally enjoyed Pillars of the Earth and now I feel the same about this book. I find it very interesting. I recommend this to anybody who just wants a good book.             Epicenter: Why the Current Rumblings in the Middle East Will Change Your Future201 reviews Joel C. Rosenberg Tyndale House Publishers, 2008 Detestable Rumblings Joel Rosenberg's "Epicenter" is absolutely the best explication of the Book of Ezekiel I have ever read! Also, one of a kind! Mr. Rosenberg--a true Jew for Jesus (and how many of *those* do we have these days, after Roman Catholicism, Martin Luther, and the Holocaust?!)--tackles the greatest metaphysical problem of our time, known as the Immanence of God - where in the world is He? Not ...             Cat's Cradle374 reviews Kurt Vonnegut Dell Publishing, 1998 Great Storytelling This is a great introductory book for those who want to try science fiction but don't want to get too deeply into robots and alien visitations. It's just a great yarn, like any classic novel: a story that will hold your interest because it's more fun than your life.             Then We Came to the End: A Novel217 reviews Joshua Ferris Back Bay Books, 2008 I Laughed, I Cried - Three Thoughts Very rarely does a book inspire me to laugh out loud, much less gasp or start tearing up. This book did all of that (which led to some embarrassing moments on the train) and more. I read it several months ago and still think about it at least once a day - although I do work in an office in Chicago that is facing layoffs, so the parallels are undeniable. But I don't want to sell Ferris short - the ...             The End of Poverty: Economic Possibilities for Our Time115 reviews Jeffrey Sachs Penguin (Non-Classics), 2006 Insightful and inspiring perspective on one of the great opportunities of our generation Jeffrey Sachs uses his broad knowledge to frame the context of a call for action to end extreme poverty in our generation. He demonstrates through detailed statistical comparisons the evolution of the widening gap of economic opportunity between the world's regions, and provides interesting narrative examples to support his conclusions. Although the statistics sometimes are mind-numbing, Sachs ...             The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason836 reviews Sam Harris W. W. Norton, 2005 It actually worked! I had been a Christian for 20 years - the evangelical sort. When I ceased to believe that the bible was the word of God, I did not give up on the existence of God altogether. I checked out liberal Christianity, and still hoped to be some sort of theist. I read an awful lot, and most books do not change my mind on a subject single handedly. But Sam's book did, because it is thorough, and ...             Death from the Skies!: These Are the Ways the World Will End . . .12 reviews Ph.D., Philip Plait Viking Adult, 2008 Death From the Skies makes you quite Wise The book is quite a roller coaster ride that takes you through all the many ways that the universe can kill us. Yet, the author, Dr. Philip Plait masterfully explains the many concepts with wit and humor rarely encountered in todays popular science books. Even those who have a decent background in astronomy can find facts and information that are absolutely novel to their thinking. Plait ...             At Grave's End (Night Huntress, Book 3) Jeaniene Frost Avon, 2009 Some things won't stay buried . . . at grave's end It should be the best time of half-vampire Cat Crawfield's life. With her undead lover Bones at her side, she's successfully protected mortals from the rogue undead. But though Cat's worn disguise after disguise to keep her true identity a secret from the brazen bloodsuckers, her cover's finally been blown, placing her in terrible danger. As if that wasn't enough, a woman from ...             The Return of History and the End of Dreams31 reviews Robert Kagan Knopf, 2008 Superb insight Well laid out sequel to "Paradise and power". All the more intriguing since it was written before the Russian invasion of Georgia--ominiously predictable from the pages of Kagan's book. Let's hope his transatlantic call to action is heeded.             12 Steps to Raw Foods: How to End Your Dependency on Cooked Food30 reviews Victoria Boutenko North Atlantic Books, 2007 12 Steps to Raw Foods: How to End Your Dependency on Cooked Food This is a very good book for those attempting to go raw in a cooked foods world.

She frankly, poignantly, and sometimes amusingly presents the reader with various possible pitfalls of making such a drastic lifestyle change, and gives tips on how to avoid them. By repeatedly referring to anecdotes about her ...             Flawed Dogs: The Year End Leftovers at the Piddleton "Last Chance" Dog Pound33 reviews Berkeley Breathed Little, Brown Young Readers, 2003 A masterpiece for dog lovers -- and everybody else `Flawed dogs' need love too Review by Guy P. Harrison, author of 50 Reasons People Give for Believing in a God Very few have fancy pedigrees and you won't see any of them in the Westminster Dog Show. Their limbs may not be of ideal proportions and their fur spoiled by a grease spot or two, but they are no less alive and no less in need of love. That's the message of "Flawed Dogs", a ...             The Other End of the Leash: Why We Do What We Do Around Dogs166 reviews Patricia B.
