Milo Wolff

, 1991
Gentle journey to understanding the wave structure of matter
The wave structure of matter model, or the spherical resonance model, explains such things as the structure of the electron, charge, gravity and magnetism as waves and wave interactions without the need for probability and additional dimensions. In this book, Milo Wolff gently explains this model in a way that a layman can understand. There is the occasional formula but the textual explanations ...

A perfect fit!
This is our family's first year homeschooling all 3 children (ages range from 4-9) and I was SO thrilled to have found such a wonderful book to teach (and truly immerse) our kids in God's creation! Jeannie Fulbright doesn't just teach facts with these books - her approach includes total immersion into the where and how and why that fill my kid's need to know and understand God in each moment, in ...

Excellent
One of the first books I've looked at that explains color in non technical terms. It has examples of how to use these colors in your paintings. There are several step by step instructions on using different color combinations as well as many exercises for you to do on your own. There's a companion coloring book which is helpful but not necessary. An outstanding book for beginners wanting to ...

EVERYONE SHOULD WORK THROUGH THIS STUDY
This is another one of Beth Moore's "home runs." She is greatly used by the Lord to get to the heart of the matter--our heart--my heart! This is the second time I have done this study--once by myself at a very difficult time in my life--and now with a friend who is going through a difficult time. I am sure the outcome of finishing this study on the fruit of the Spirit will give both of us a ...

Gives an intuitive understanding of General Relativity
This book sidesteps the hard work needed to motivate and develop the Einstein field equations, and goes directly to one of the most important solutions of the equations, the Schwarzschild solution, which gives rise to the concept of a black hole. By exploring what observers in different parts of space-time would experience along their different trajectories (whether falling into a black hole or ...

Stop and smell the roses...
Sometimes we get so caught up in doing things and going places, we forget about the things around us that are so important and beautiful! We forget to smell the roses. This book is so easy to read and you want to read it. I was intrigued by trying to figure out what he might find next. I loved this book!
Resurfacing: Techniques for Exploring Consciousness

So simple, so powerful
The old wisdom that says the simplest answer is the best is proven once again by this book. The exercises here may look simple at first reading but actually doing them and spending time taking them to depth produces amazing results. I'm reminded of the value of practicing scales for building professional musical skills. Rather than providing esoteric or mystical instructions, Harry Palmer ...

Dr. Ballard is master of the seas!
This handsome companion to the excellent National Geographic documentary is the best overview and photographic record of the Lusitania disaster I have seen. If you only own or read one book on the Lusitania, let it be this one! It covers the key issues surrounding the tragedy: Why did the powerful, double bottom ship go down so quickly (only 18 minutes compared to over 2 hours for the less ...

Everything I needed
I am a computer programmer/web designer familiar with adobe photoshop, but I wanted to learn more about designing with illustrator. I knew how to get around the program, but was not confident in using it. This book was wonderful - it's great for beginners, and I love how it encourages you to use keystrokes to get things done, instead of the mouse (much faster).

Ultimate Sticker Book, It Is...
This is the Ultimate Ancient Egyptian sticker book. Besides being colorful and interesting, the stickers and various forms and shapes explain how they were used in Ancient Egypt and are historically correct. It is a useful learning book for any child or adult interested in ancient Egypt history and well worth the price.

Best SPANISH cookbook ever!
Let me start off by saying that I studied abroad in Spain on 2 occasions, my husband (who I met in Spain) is half-Spanish, and I have traveled to Spain a half dozen times. With that being said, I love Spanish food and I have tried it from several regions. I saw this cookbook in a local market and copied a recipe out of it. I cooked the recipe and it was amazing...it was exactly like the food I ...
Exploring the Moon: The Apollo Expeditions (Springer Praxis Books / Space Exploration)

Apollo - telling it like it was
At last,a book about the Apollo missions that does not dwell on Buzz's drinking, one-small-steps or the "unfolding human near-tragedy" that was Apollo 13. These are all great topics but they have been done to death. What Harland has done is chronicle the real reason - well, it later became the real reason - that Nasa went to the Moon. Once the euphoria ofbeating the Russians had worn off, six ...

Bob Burns Collector of Dreams
Bob Burns has written a wonderful little book titled, "It Came From Bob's Basement." This book is chronicle of a moment in time that has long since passed from our lives, but we can always take a moment to revisit. Bob grew up in the 1930's when many things, which we now take for granted, were in their infancy. Before video games, and a color television in every home, a child was more innocent; ...
Sacred Wisdom - A Mystical Journey Exploring the Purpose of Life

Simple, Relevant, Suspenseful - A Great Read
Sacred Wisdom is a great story about someone who gets caught up in the hustle and bustle of the daily grind without taking time to understand his purpose - until he was faced with some mystical experiences that made it clear that he had to. Isn't this something we all can relate to - too busy catching up with everything with no time to catch up with ourselves until we are forced to? I really ...

A great read to better understand the hidden realm of the Middle Kingdom
I've spent over 8 years in Asia with much of it in China and have always enjoyed reading books about China. Many though, do not come close to capturing the modern thoughts of China as it changes from an agricultural to industrial power as this book does. If you are looking for a deeper understanding of how many Chinese feel on the street, with threads of intrigue, history and current events I ...

Inside the Pike Place Market
Braiden Rex-Johnson has written a foodies delight. Sumptuously decorated with the photographs of Paul Soders, Rex-Johnson's exploration of Pike Place Market is candy for all the senses. This is NOT a cookbook. There are just 20 recipes (all very good). Rather, this is a delightful narrative of the history of the market, the people and products that inhabit it, and the terrific food that ...

My favorite book about education
I love this book! I loved it when the first edition came out ten years ago -- and I love it even more now, with the new beginning and ending. I also love the CD that comes with the book -- the wonderful conversation between Parker and his colleagues. Parker puts into words what so many of us have felt -- and he does it exquisitely. He says that we teach who we are, that the teacher's identity ...
