World Made by Hand: A Novel

Thought Provoking and an Absorbing Story
I almost didn't buy this book despite having bought all of Kunstler's non-fiction books, going back to his early books on architecture and urban design. "So... he's written a novel... hmmmm..." Is he the next Faulkner? Well, no, but this was actually one of the best novels I've read in the last year or two. He has a real command of the basics: a good story and interesting, realistic ...

saved my life
I wrote a review years ago after I read this book. Still today, regardless of all the notoriety, I give thanks to James for writing this book. Unless someone has walked in the shoes of very early sobriety and recovery from drug addiction as well as alcohol abuse there can be no understanding of how powerful this book is. Bottom line: it saved my life and my MIND. Without this book God only ...

Governor of the Dead
Most of the folks here already know that The Walking Dead saga is a compilation of stories by Robert Kirkman that expand on the story that is well know to any zombie movie fan....The main story. The one started in earnest by George Romero in 1968 with Night of the Living Dead [and was later remade in 1990 (the version that I prefer) by Tom Savini (with Romero oversight)]. The Walking Dead ...

Delicious recipes, good layout, clear and easy to follow
I've been preparing raw food for a couple months now. Juliano's RAW uncookbook was my first book (I wouldn't recommend it for starting out, I didn't get really into raw food until the two books I bought after). I got this book and ani's raw food kitchen at the same time. They're both great books with delicious recipes. I use them a lot, and like them for different reasons. This book is more ...

how ego maintenance exacts a huge price
Who wants to admit he was wrong, made a mistake, exercised poor judgment, was misled or conned? None of us do, but most of us are skillful at excusing or justifying those acts. This absorbing book explains why and how we reduce "cognitive dissonance" to maintain a favorable self image in spite of overt misbehavior or failure. Beyond that, the authors show how destructive this tendency can be, ...

Liberal Fascism Book
This was a very deep and historical book. There is a lot of stuff in here I didn't know. I didn't know that the lady that originally started the Family Planning organization did not believe in abortion at all but only believed in birth control. Hitler got many of his ideas from people right here in our country! The true goal of abortion is eugenics, which means to eliminate the unwanted ...

A must read!!
There are alot of idiots floating around out there that don't see the potential pitfalls of giving the Federal government expanded powers. If you are one of these folks, please read this book. The work is relatively short but the lesson that it gives is powerful. I believe it was Benjamin Franklin who said this but I believe it encapsulates every being of this book "people willing to trade their ...

A LATE DEVELOPER BURSTS INTO BLOOM
I'm what you might call a late bloomer. I saved myself for marriage, and stayed a virgin until my wedding night. Naturally, I didn't have anything to compare it to, and I definitely did not reach an orgasm that night. I remained faithful and married to the same man for 20 years. During that time, I never learned to masturbate or pleasure myself in any way. I could count on one hand the number of ...

Fantastic glimse...
I read this book on a business trip and almost missed all my meetings because I didn't want to put it down. Forget the movie...or at the very least...READ THIS BOOK before you see the movie. It was amazing and I'd say a good read for both men and women.

Dr. Pitcairn's New Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats
This book contains very valuable information. My Persian cat has food allergies since three years and she has been treated with prednisone and other medication since that time. Thanks to the simple suggestions of Dr Pitcairn, I have been able to reduce prednisone and go without it for long periods, clean her eyes using almond oil which seems to be gentler that the commercial eye cleaners, ...

Great book!!!
I bought this for my husband for father's day. He's a huge Phillies fan, but he's said that even if he wasn't he would love this book. It's an inspiring story and a quick read. Would recommend to anyone, even if you're not a Phillies fan.

Ingenuity. Imagination. Depictions. Diagrams.
Put these four things together--ingenuity, imagination, depictions, diagrams-- and you have a double ID toward understanding how things work. David Macaulay and Neil Ardley put together a magnificent volume for children and children at heart containing a way of understanding the laws of physics and mechanics. The first illustration even shows God busy creating the rotation of the earth. Then ...
