How the Grinch Stole Christmas (Penguin Joint Venture Readers)

Dr. Seuss
Longman
, 2001
the best children's book EVER !!!
How The Grinch Stole Christmas is a classic tale about greed, materialism, and the kindness of man for his fellow man all wrapped up in one great big package! The illustrations are wonderful and the rhyming text impresses me. This is a story by Dr. Seuss that is so popular it was made into a Christmastime TV special; and it deserves every bit of recognition that it gets. (Note: this story is ...
The Joint Book: The Complete Guide to Wood Joinery

Small, usable, super helpful
This little book is a big surprise. It's small, about the size of a largish Daytimer, almost 7"x8". Every page is filled with diagrams and color drawings illustrating every joint that's used in American woodworking. There are plenty of color photos also. I'd worried it might be too small to be useful but it's the opposite. Because it's small (feels like a little binder), it doesn't take up ...
Getting Back on Your Feet: How to Recover Mobility and Fitness After Injury or Surgery to Your Foot, Leg, ...

Useful Detail for Learning
Much of the book is dedicated to getting around on crutches. Under "Fitting of Crutches" Pryor states "All too frequently crutches are fitted improperly - generally too long - even by trained personnel." This is exactly what happened to me. I was nearly falling off the crutches every "swing-through" step. I fitted the crutches per instructions. By the next day I had the swing-through step ...

Well, it worked
I hurt my rotator cuffs doing some bag work. I waited a long time (I'm a guy) to go into an ortho. He gave me the advice to work on my posture, lose weight and a photocopy of some exercises to do. Told me that how I injured myself didn't matter, fixing it was what counted. Well, posture and losing weight solved that problem. Had a completely different feeling problem. Went back after ...

Daniel P. Bolger
Presidio Press
, 1997
An Excellent Primer for Light Infantry Training
This is another good book by COL Daniel Bolger, this time about his battalion's (101st ABN) rotations to JRTC in 1994 and 1995. Lots of great details and observations about JRTC and the OPFOR. Bolger's battalion was badly abused in its 1994 rotation and he decided to get even the next time, which was fortunately less than a year later. Bolger criticizes the Deliberate Decision Making Process ...

CAPTAIN MEADOWS IS A FINE AUTHOR! JOINT TASK FORCE: LIBERIA IS A PAGETURNER!
I became a fan of this author when I read the fourth book in this series. It was intriguing, exciting ... a book I could not put down. (It helped that there were so many fine, young military men in the book too. I adore men in uniform.) So, of course, I had to go back and read the other three in this fantastic military thriller, starting with JTF:Liberia. Now I've read them all and each was ...

Helps me in ALL of my training
I am a teacher of Yoshinkan Aikido with 30 years of training in various martial arts, including Taichi and now Chin Na. I have been familiar with Dr Yang's works but never owned any of his books until last year. I finally had an opportunity to attend one of his seminars and now study with some of his students. I am also trying to collect as much of his works as I can. I found this book to ...
Inner Cleansing: How to Free Yourself from Joint Muscle Artery Circulation Sludge

Carlson Wade
Prentice Hall Press
, 1992
Have the first addition - very well used.
This book is the most comprehensive yet easy to follow program on the subject of inner cleansing. I like that he's not preaching or self serving, but very clear and to the point about cleaning out the "toxic sludge," that we all have, as result of eating bad food. And, it doesn't require any fancy or obscure potions or pills -- just good, wholesome foods like fresh fruit/vegetable juices. Its in ...

Classic Joints with Power Tools
I know Yeung and have taken a number of classes with him. At first, I was surprised to hear that he was writing a book on power tools. He is the master of hand work skill and sensitivity. His philosophy of furnituremaking is one of respectfulness and thoughtfulness about the wood, the design of the peice and the process of creating it. This book on using power tools carries this philosophy ...

Beautiful Investigation of Connectedness
I enjoyed this book so greatly. I love the way Mary Felstiner approaches the subject of joints, jointedness, connection, from such varied angles, using documents of cultural, personal, and medical history. Magnificent!! What a huge accomplishment this book represents. Apart from all else, I've learned a staggering amount from this gifted author about the body in a cultural context, and this ...

Donald P. Bellisario-Heads Up! Here's another TV series win
David E. Meadows has not only established himself as today's prolific author of military thrillers, he has stamped a style that TV producer Donald P. Bellisario loves. His characters have a sense of humor in the midst of dire circumstances. It's a playfulness that Bellisario hires scriptwriters to inject into each of his military TV series-currently JAG and NCIS. In his Joint Task Force series, ...

Finally!
Help! This book made me into the class "know it all". I'm in school starting my second career and I need to know anatomy. I was suppose to learn it for my first career but it never stuck. After reading Dr. Dimon's book I'm finding I know more than I thought I could know and it has been so easy. I'm begining to understand the intelligence of our design and the names of all the bones and muscles ...

Excellent book on handcut dovetails
I have plenty of articles and books on cutting dovetails by hand. I have dutifully followed the steps, instructions, etc. provided yet my dovetails are still not as good as I would like them to be. However, Kirby's book is the first one that explained the basics in a clear form, provided a good set of steps and REASONS behind why things are done in a certain order. After reading Kirby's book ...

I have read many different acupressure guides before...
I have read a number of acupressure books before. Dr. Stein's book is the easiest to use. Finally, I can understand the location of acupoints, duration of massage, and direction of force. The illustrations are black and white but very clear.

Great! Multiple readings will not diminish your fun.
I read this at a B&B in Wales; then was ecstatic to find it at Half Price Books in the States. I have lent it to many, but make strong demands for its return. You will want to make it part of your permanent collection.
