Extending the Table: A World Community Cookbook
22 reviews
Joetta Handrich Schlabach
Herald Press
, 1991
Not just "Christian moralizing"
All the recipes in this book are delicious, clear, and exciting, as the other reviews amply cover, but the anecdotes and essays and quotes are equal treasures. While the book is written from a missionary-Christian POV, I found it meaningful and touching as an agnostic sort-of-Jew, and never felt proselytized or talked down to, and it never seemed like the many different faiths and cultures of the ...

This book has helped me improve my understanding of why I feel the way I do at times. Using a method of laymens terms really fits the pieces of our biological puzzle together.
Extending the Linear Model with R: Generalized Linear, Mixed Effects and Nonparametric Regression Models ...

Flawed but well-explained
"Extending the Linear Model with R" is a "sequel" of sorts to the impressive "Linear Models with R" also written by Faraway. It assumes a basic knowledge of R (you don't have to be an expert) and a decent understanding of linear models. If you don't have that background, then I would start with the before-mentioned "Linear Models with R". If you read and understood that book, then you should ...

Very readable, very practical
This book brings economic theories down to earth. The Beckers are excellent writers and the book is easy to read because it is broken down into short segments. The book would be great as supplementary reading for a principles of economics class.

Fantastic resource!
This fantastic book taught me exactly how to build student understanding in place value, something I never felt my students fully grasped before. They always seemed to understand fine at the time, but a few months later they didn't see a problem when their answer to 19+14 came out to be 113. The book includes many hands-on activities that build a SOLID foundation in place value that really ...

Powerful and concise
This is an excellent book. It shows how to unleash the power of SSIS. Script (writing code) is the way to go when you need go beyond the tasks and transformations that are built into SSIS. This book shows how to customize, control, extend and monitor SSIS through code. One of the best things about the book is that it is only around 200 pages. This book won't put you to sleep with the history ...

"Fall Scaping" is very strongly recommended for any gardener with an interest in continuing to maximize their gardens
It past years, the fall season was considered as one of harvesting and getting flower beds and gardens cleaned up and ready for the winter. However the autumn of the year with its rainbow of foliage colors, visually attractive fruits, berries, and seedheads, and mild climatic conditions have changed the thinking of dedicated gardeners and landscapers as to what can be accomplished before the ...

Excellent!
I bought this book to get a better idea of how to safely interface my own circuits to the Lego Mindstorms NXT. In my opinion, you can't find a better book for this purpose. "Extreme NXT" contains the pinouts and proper usage of the NXT motor and sensor ports. It also provides a large number of the most useful homebrew sensor implementations, right down to parts lists containing part numbers for ...

The book is useful in helping the reader discover deeper issues of unforgiveness and gives careful and helpful guidance as to how to resolve these issues. As a professional psychotherapist and Christian counselor, I found ...

Indispensable Guide to Nonviolent Struggle - A Must-Read for the 21st Century
Gene Sharp has done more to advance our understanding and practice of strategic nonviolence than anyone except perhaps Mahatma Gandhi himself. Waging Nonviolent Struggle is a compendium of his wisdom developed over half a century of serious study, writing, and consulting. If I were to recommend one volume on nonviolent struggle to newcomers and experts alike, it would be this one. Its argument is ...

Marilyn Burns is My Hero!
This is a fabulous book well worth the investment. For children who have already had an introduction to fractions, this reviews some basics so that children who didn't get it the first time around have another chance, while children who did get it the first time aren't bored because the ways in which basic fractions are reviewed are interesting and novel. Lots of hands-on activities and ...

Math is fun again!!!
As an upper-elementary school teacher, I have used the activities in this book to supplement the regular math textbook with students in grades 4, 5, and even 6. The lessons are all constructivist in theory, so they are all highly engaging for the students, and most of them do not require expensive materials to implement. The students loved the math games and hands-on activities, and I believe ...

Delivering Carrier Ethernet is an excellent text on the subject. It is well structured, reviewing Ethernet fundamentals, and providing a templeted view of all the EoEverything technologies, without resorting to detailed protocol analysis. It has a good context of the evolution, and technologies. I've been in the carrier provider business for over 20 years, and this is a good as it gets. Multiple ...

Explains org.eclipse.birt for Java customisation
This book is an impressive extension on "BIRT: A Field Guide to Reporting". The latter described BIRT to a newcomer, showing how to use its features. With a minimal discussion of scripting for customisation. While the scripting certainly involved programming, it was rather minimal, and most of the text showed a declarative layout approach to using BIRT. The Integrating book is the sequel. ...

Great Book!
I love this book! I am a professional graphic designer that does not know how to write any JavaScript. I just wanted to be able to create more dynamic pdf files. The author did a great job explaining the JavaScript used in this book in a way that non programmers can grasp! Mr. Deubert was also very gracious in helping me customize one of the scripts in his book to work for a specific project ...
