Exposure: A Novel

Alan Russell
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2002
Folks, Alan Russell is a treasure!
This is a story of mayhem, intrigue, sex, high-speed suspense, and plain old-fashioned fun. Alan Russell has a way with the turn of phrase and plot that keeps you amused, guessing, and waiting for the next morsel of wit or intrigue. He is a wonder and a man whose work is to be savored like a bite or French gourmet or a taste of exquisite wine. Truly a wonder and despite my own literary efforts, I ...

Dylan Schaffer

Funny, rich, and compulsively readable
I'm not a huge fan of legal mysteries, but Schaffer doesn't write your average courtroom potboiler. First of all, this book is funny as hell. Gordy is a great character, a perfect combination of pathos and humor, and I was rooting for him from the first chapter on. The lawyer aspects engaged me more than I would have expected---being a lawyer himself, Schaffer takes us through a trial that ...

A must have for northern exposure fans
This cookbook is so much fun and a must for any northern exposure fan. All the recipes you heard mentioned from Adam and the zabaglione he whipped up for Eve on their first date to the Cassoulet Chris had at the monastery. It has a little intro to each recipe done in character by the character. There are simple funny recipes like Joel's Jell-O and Marilynn's potatoes and more detailed ones ...

Worth Having as a Reference
I classify business books as follows: read and forget, take notes and dump, keep for reference. This book is definitely in the latter category. For small businesses, typically characterized by a tight budget, PR is often a mystery. How do so many businesses get into the media - sometimes repeatedly? This book demystifies PR in plain language. It also has formats, elements and numerous examples of ...

Autoimmune disease, environment and medicine all in one place
I am, admittedly, a fan of the book because it tells a powerful story of a neighborhood activism in Buffalo, NY, and I was involved in that story in a small way. But the story of folks with undiagnosed autoimmune disease, how this poor, minority community had the strength of will to ask difficult questions, identify scientific collaborators in the local University, and lead a groundbreaking study ...
The Negative: Exposure and Development: Basic Photo 2
35 reviews
Ansel Adams
New York Graphic Society
, 1980
An excellent technical reference
Concisely written in Adams' own scholarly style, "The Negative" is a valuable resource for photographers learning the foundation of technically correct (as opposed to generally good) base exposure in a variety of scenes, both pedestrian and those that are more conflicting. One must, however, consider that more than 4 decades have passed since the techniques were founded and the technology ...

Photoshop CS2
I was really surprised this was such an excellent book. Usually I just read the chapters I am interested in , but I read this whole book--it was just so instructional and one that I will keep close to the computer for reference book.
Understanding Shutter Speed: Creative Action and Low-Light Photography Beyond 1/125 Second

Bryan Peterson

, 2008
Fantastic Book!!
Not technically brillant at digital photography, I purchased Bryan Pettersons book Understanding Shutter Speed in the hope that it would enlighten somewhat so I could go out and take reasonable photos. I read it and then went and purchased Bryan's other book "Understanding Exposure". Both these books are absolutely brilliant (unless you are already a pro photograher - and even then, you would ...
The Expert's Edge: Become the Go-To Authority People Turn to Every Time
17 reviews
McGraw-Hill, 2007
Expert status is effective marketing
How would *you* market a new product? The usual approach is to talk about your product - and talk and talk and talk. Brag about it. Tell the world how amazing it is (or how cheap, or how desirable). Common wisdom says that the louder and longer you brag about it the more you will sell. Ken Lizotte has a very different approach. He points out that people buy particular products or services ...
Maggots in My Sweet Potatoes: Women Doing Time

Susan Madden Lankford
Humane Exposures Publishing
, 2008
I expected something different but was greatly surprized
When I received my copy of Maggots in My Sweet Potatoes I thought that this would be an easy read, a simple read. Firstly it looks a bit like a coffee table book. I thought that this would be something to browse, but just a harsher subject matter. Boy, was I fooled. Susan Madden Lankford was not there at the jailhouse in San Diego simply to snap photos so that we could see "the inside". ...

Fantastic Nude photography
I've got an entire shelf of books on nude photography, but this is certainly one of the best. No "average people are beautiful too" here -- all the models are gorgeous and well developed. The pics are in both color and black & white, and usually take up the full page. Heavy paper, large size, tasteful clear photos, and gorgeous women. Fantastic.
Darkroom: A Family Exposure (Associated Writing Programs Award for Creative Nonfiction)
6 reviews
Jill Christman
University of Georgia Press
, 2002
A good read!
This book is a perfect example of the possibilities of creative nonfiction. Like the originator of the personal essay, Montaigne, Jill Christman chooses her self as her subject-the "I"-yet, in doing so, is really writing about all of us-the "we"-of humanity. Like more modern writers-Woolf, Stein, Eliot and so on-Christman also brings to her work a richness of prose, an understanding of ...

Lippincott Raven

Great but very expensive book
I believe all hospital libraries should hold a copy of this excellent book. The price is rather steep for an individual and therein lies my only crib against this book. I had to fork over almost a month's pay to get my copy. On to what I think of the content. Clear descriptions aided with crisp colour drawings make most exposures a breeze. This is an ideal book to look through before stepping ...

A Great Historical Look At ECW
My initial viewing experience in Cleveland (OH) with the ECW television program was through shows airing on a small station based in Akron/Canton (OH) that was not picked up by most cable outlets outside that area. I was lucky enough to have a Sony Watchman that picked up the station. Based on that TV show and word of mouth, ECW sold out its first show in Cleveland at the Agora nightclub, ...

I'm so glad I found this author.
Since I am from the Mississippi Delta only 15 miles from the setting, I was excited about finding this book. Then I was really impressed with the writing and plot and could not put this book down until I had read the last line. My husband read it and thought it was excellent.My mother, having recommended this one to me, was able to find two more of the author's earlier books at the library, ...
How to market a product for under $500: A handbook of multiple exposure marketing

Jeffrey Dobkin
Danielle Adams Pub
, 1995
Big book, lots of practical ideas, low cost techniques
This is another book by Dobkin covering his multiple exposure marketing methods. There's over 350 pages of checklists, resources, and great ideas. Here's a synopsis of the contents: I - Big Results from Free Press (publicity) - 30 sections outlining how to create a PR campaign that gets published. This was very well done, and I wish he would come out with a book on this topic exclusively. II - ...
Ch'ang Hon Taekwon-do Hae Sul - Real Applications to the ITF Patterns: Vol 1
8 reviews
Stuart Paul Anslow
Exposure Publishing, 2006
Interesting reading.
I found the pattern applications to have a fair amount of resonance with my own training. (Not to mention Mr. Anslow's usenet postings and older articles which I'd already read elsewhere.) I thought the historical explorations of the pattern stories, and the look into what each pattern was generally intended to teach was the most compelling reading.

Domino Effect
David Begelman, powerful head of a studio thinks he is above the law, until an actor by the name of Cliff Robertson exposes him. This book is a well written tale of immorality in a town known for it's lack of scruples. Hollywood insiders should not be surprised at this tale, but I was. The check Begelman forged was for a small amount. The man made more than that in a month. The book exposes the ...

Excellent Book
I couldn't be happier that I have this book. It explains everything that I needed to know about exposure, in such detail that a monkey could take better photos than Ansel Adams. I am so serious, If you have a DSLR, and you want to learn everything you can about it, you must have this book.
DES Stories : Faces and Voices of People Exposed to Diethylstilbestrol

DES - alive and well
If you thought DES was a thing of the past - guess again. DES is alive and well. All you have to do is look into the faces staring up from the pages of this book and listen to the personal stories of the people exposed to this drug to know you are in the presence of a powerful force. No, I'm not referring to DES, although its impact is profound. I am referring to the miraculous ability of the ...
