Brooks Cole, 2005 Good for beginners in practice/good resource for veterans I had this book last semester as a MSW student at WVU. I have found it useful as a resource guide for my current practice as a family-based therapist as well. I would recommend this book to all those out there in practice. Deborah M. Migyanko, BSW             The Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Workbook: Your Program for Regaining Cognitive Function & Overcoming ...11 reviews Douglas J. Mason New Harbinger Publications, 2004 Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Workbook Excellent book for providing patient education about TBI, and provides exercises that persons with TBI can complete during therapy sessions or at home.             The Artillery of Gettysburg2 reviews Bradley M. Gottfried Cumberland House Publishing, 2008 Solid shot at a vital component of a great battle Bradley Gottfried's "The Artillery of Gettysburg" is a solid account of the part that artillery, both Union and Confederate, played during the Battle of Gettysburg. The story of the battle is narrated in a straigtforward chronological fashion, with the role of each artillery unit described in turn, detailing how each battery acted and reacted to the avalanche of events during the three days of ...             The Maps of Gettysburg: The Gettysburg Campaign, June 3 - July 13, 186322 reviews Bradley Gottfried Savas Beatie, 2007 Excellent map resource on the Battle of Gettysburg! This book follows the Battle of Gettysburg in short increments of time and provides a map for each of these short increments. This format makes the complicated flow of action very easy to follow. I highly recommend this book.             The Transparent Cabal: The Neoconservative Agenda, War in the Middle East, and the National Interest of Israel Stephen J. Sniegoski Ihs Press, 2008 Although it is generally understood that American neoconservatives pushed hard for the war in Iraq, this book forcefully argues that the neocons' goal was not the spread of democracy, but the protection of Israel's interests in the Middle East. Showing that the neocon movement has always identified closely with the interests of Israel's Likudnik right wing, the discussion contends that neocon advice on Iraq was the exact opposite of conventional ...             The Battle of Gettysburg: A Guided Tour1 review Edward J. Stackpole, Wilbur Sturtevant Nye, ... Stackpole Books, 1998 Concise yet complete tour guide with great graphics The editorial reviews on this paperback are right on the mark. It is an excellent 124-page booklet that follows the formal tour guide route. The front tour section starts by providing just the right amount of "selected" detail (with some well-cropped and selected photos)on each of the 16 stops (36 pages). I was able to take the book out and use it as a quick stop tour. I found the positons ...             Klimt (Big Art)4 reviews Gottfried Fliedl Taschen, 2006 Revealing, Educational and Loads of Photos First of all, the book is not covered as shown in the amazon photo which shows the famous "kiss" painting. The book, apparently updated in 2006, shows a cover photo of Klimt's famous Danae (1907-8) oil on canvas painting. I think this cover is more provacative and more organic and softer than the famed Kiss painting which reveals a couple entwined in gold looking rather stiff. Danae was ...             The Courtier and the Heretic: Leibniz, Spinoza, and the Fate of God in the Modern World35 reviews Matthew Stewart W. W. Norton, 2007 Baruch Wins by a Knockout! So many reviews already! Mine will be brief. Matthew Stewart's exegesis of Spinoza is brilliant, the clearest I've ever encountered, and should be taken as a challenge from the past by all adherents of "Intelligent Design". Leibniz is portrayed less sympathetically, indeed as a bit of an intellectual opportunist, as if Voltaire had not already convinced all the world that "Pangloss" was a hapless ...             Unleashing Web 2.0: From Concepts to Creativity1 review Gottfried Vossen, Stephan Hagemann Morgan Kaufmann, 2007 Excellent Executive's Guide to Web 2.0 Technologies This book is an excellent book on Web 2.0 technologies and how they can be used to provide value to users in a Web 2.0 world. The book is a light on technical (programming), but rich on concepts and the business side of Web 2.0. What makes this book useful is the fact that it reintroduces common concepts such as blogs in a way that an executive can understand and take advantage of. The first ...             The Austrian Theory of the Trade Cycle and Other Essays7 reviews Ludwig von Mises, Murray N. Rothbard, ... Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 1996 Powerful and Remarkably Timely This is a very insightful collection of essays from many of the leading "Austrian School" trade economists. They run from essays in the 30s aimed at countering the wave of post-depression social planning to essays in the 70s arguing against Keynesian economics. The key economic insight across the essays is the temportal nature of the Austrian view of business cycles. An artificially low ...             Theodicy: Essays on the Goodness of God, the Freedom of Man, and the Origin of Evil4 reviews Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Open Court Publishing Company, 1988 This is the motherload! This, and other of Leibniz's writings are, ..... I don't know. Profound? That is an understatement! Paradigm shifting? At least a few? These are some of the most powerful and poignant thoughts put into writing. This is the man who discovered the calculus with meaning (as opposed to Newton, who also gets credit, but had a different basis). Leibniz gets some bad neglect in history, largely ...             Philosophical Essays3 reviews Gottfried Wilhelm, Freiherr von Leibniz Hackett Publishing Company, 1989 A necessary compendium of a formidable oeuvre The greatness of Leibniz is undermined by the vastness of his oeuvre. It stands of no single definitive works. Like the monads that he espoused, Leibniz's writings are here, there and everywhere, each bit mirroring the whole--the universe that Leibniz envisioned. Short of an encyclopedia of Leibniz's oeuvre, this book can serve as a nearly-comprehensive collection of the 'goods.' The major ...             Neo Rauch: Neue Rollen2 reviews Markus Bruderlin, Gottfried Boehm, ... Dumont, 2007 Endlessly and compellingly intriguing I keep returning to this book over and over. I find Rauch's work endlessly and compellingly intriguing. A recent tribute to the late filmmaker Ingmar Bergman included the following description of Bergman that could easily apply to Neo Rauch: Kael had "observed that in much of his work 'the imagery derives its power from unconscious or not fully understood associations' that could cause Bergman ...             The Fold: Leibniz and the Baroque9 reviews Gilles Deleuze University of Minnesota Press, 1992 Between Two Worlds While my French is not good enough to judge others, I find it very easy to believe that this translation is not good. I found this book the most difficult of Deleuze's works, and I think the translator did not understand his task. To recover I needed to undertake a rereading of Leibniz so I could see through the English text before me and re-establish the original terms and questions. Still, if ...             Hildegard of Bingen's Medicine (Folk Wisdom Series)4 reviews Dr. Wighard Strehlow, Gottfried Hertzka Bear & Company, 1987 Great Book !!! If you are interested in your health and nutrition with a spiritual element to it, this book is perfect! I loved this book and have recommened it to many of my friends. I have used alot of the nutrition recommendations, spelt, fennel,and almonds and have seen an improvment in my health.             Brigades of Gettysburg: The Union and Confederate Brigades at the Battle of Gettysburg9 reviews Bradley M. Gottfried Da Capo Press, 2002 Hard to keep in the book case My library contains a number of Gettysburg books but this is the one most used. In very clear writing, each brigade's history including losses is summarized. Summarized is not the best word for this concise brigade history. The book is organized by army, corps, division and brigade. This groups units together and allows us to easily follow the higher-level unit too. An excellent book that ...             Schaum's Outline of Engineering Economics6 reviews Jose A. Sepulveda, William E. Souder, ... McGraw-Hill, 1984 Good supplement of an engineering economics book This is a good compendium of pills and problems useful for practicing and for quick reviewing engineering economics concepts. It does not, however, stands alone as a book on the subject because it lacks unity and completeness in its treatment. The book was helpful for me to revisit some points and to clarify a few others, and I think that was the main purpose of the authors. For the price it is a ...             Transactional Information Systems: Theory, Algorithms, and the Practice of Concurrency Control (The Morgan ...4 reviews Gerhard Weikum, Gottfried Vossen Morgan Kaufmann, 2001 Up-to-date ... sends an old friend into semi-retirement Before this book was published my primary reference and personal favorite TP book was "Transaction Processing: Concepts and Techniques" by Jim Gray and Andreas Reuter. At over 1100 pages that book thoroughly covered the basics and drilled down into the nuances of transaction processing in a way unmatched by other books on the topic since it was first published in 1993. This book changes that by ...             The Artist's Guide to Human Anatomy2 reviews Gottfried Bammes Dover Publications, 2004 Great 2nd anatomy book to those with a main one! I bought this book for the study of the different styles of human anatomy. This book is a great complement to Constructive Anatomy or Artistic Anatomy. Excellent!             Action Painting1 review Robert Fleck, Jason Kaufman, ... Hatje Cantz, 2008 action painting and Jackson Pollack's place in the field Jackson Pollock is named in the title for being the primary model and pivotal artist in action painting. Action painting stands out as a type of painting in the post-World War II art movement "concentrat[ing] above all on the true essence of painting" for exceptionally capturing the essentials of "color, painterly gesture, and immediacy" which were the movement's ideals.
