Bless you, Amazon
I bought this book for my daughter, who has Borderline Personality Disorder, to use as a tool for practicing her coping skills. The program she had just gone through didn't even have this, or suggest it to her. She works with it every couple days, and it helps her get through some rough patches. People with Borderline have a very specific set of needs, fears, and issues. I won't go into it ...

What you need to know!
From how to rid yourself of parasites, to how to build a shelter ... this book has it all. Lots of good 'how-to' and 'what-if' solutions for surviving without modern technology, medicine, power, etc.

"Maman died today."
At the beginning of the novel Meursault the main character - who lives in Algiers - gets a message from the home where his mother resided that she passed away. Meursault doesn't show any feeling at all. And during the voyage to that home, the wake and the funeral, and the voyage back home, it's as if his mother never existed or that she's a perfect stranger to him. He spends not a single thought ...

Their goal: the mapping of a long-term plan for financial regulation reform. The Squam Lake Report distills the wealth of insights from the ongoing collaboration that began at these meetings and provides a revelatory, unified, and coherent voice for fixing our troubled and damaged ...
Yoga Anatomy

Human Kinetics, 2007
Good illustrations - not so good "how to."
This book does an excellent job of explaining which part of the body is used in each asana (muscle groups, tendons, etc). I particularly liked the very in depth intro describing the anatomy of how humans breathe - very useful in yoga practice. The illustrations were also great and they covered quite a variety of poses. However, I was expecting more of a how to guide for each pose. Possibly ...

Need more stars, please!
Where's that sixth star when you need it? "Shop Class as Soulcraft" is thrilling, not like a Tom Clancy novel is thrilling, but thrilling to see someone as articulate as Crawford explode the myth that what America needs is millions more "knowledge workers" creating PowerPoint presentations about abstract concepts and taking out their frustrations with their meaningless jobs in fight clubs and ...

Wow, picked it up last night and I HAD TO FINISH THIS!!!!!
Well. i haven't read a real non-picture book in a while. But, after getting a copy of this book i briefly read the first 2 or 3 paragraphs, however, by the last sentence, i had to keep reading this book. The character is awesome, the pace of the book did not bore me at all. I refused to sleep last night and read the entire book when i got home from work. The story took me to a very dark place ...

A wonderfully helpful book
My 10yr old son started having anxiety issues following a long bout with illness. We did contact the local counseling center, but it was going to take 4 weeks to see the therapist (we live in a very rural area). We got this book hoping to find some way to help him deal with his worry. It made all the difference in the world. We would work on it a little at a time each day, and he would practice ...

Hardball: How Politics Is Played Told By One Whoe Knows The Game
The book purchased was listed as in like new condition. The only mark on the book was black marker on the outside edge which did not effect the book. The book arrived at my home a lot quicker than I thought it would and wouldn't hesitate to purchase another book for the seller.

Kaboom
Matt Gallagher's description of his tour of duty in Iraq is riveting and, at times, heart-rending. He details his daily experiences in a format that vignettes his experiences without political judgment. His ordinary approach to his extraordinary career as a junior officer in the Army and in Iraq makes his observations captivating and compelling. I look forward to whatever he does next.

I'd like to say that it is a super book on latest WPF techniques for both tutorial and reference. It may be the most comprehensive book that readers can read from cover to cover, or refer any topic randomly. The only suggestion I'd like to say is: Since the book is titled as "Pro", should it include some design patterns specific to WPF, such as MVC, MVVC, etc? I recommend this book for any ...

This Story Stays With You!
You will definitely feel sorry for this entire family, including Jason! It just goes to show you how poorly mental illness and the mentally ill are treated. These kids should have been removed from the mother and not allowed to grow up in such a dysfunctional home situation. I read the entire book in one day (riveting) because I couldn't put it down. I keep going back to it and repeatedly reading ...

Spot On!
I've never bothered to write a book review before, but this book promises to be a life changer. I hope others will find it as useful as my daughter and I already have. Dawn Huebner and Bonnie Matthews are spot-on with their examples and illustrations depicting our personal situation. It's almost as if they've been peeking through our windows. Like some of the other reviewers, my daughter pitched ...

A good resource
This is essentially a mental health workbook. I find it concise, logical and easy to follow. The introduction explains that not all chapters are necessary to work through for all problems. It then directs you to how to determine which chapters and exercises will help for your own needs. Even though I don't need all the chapters and exercises, I find myself reviewing chapters about worry and ...

The Best of it"s kind!
Through out the history of the christian church God has always given teachers. No man is, or will ever be perfect, but for the children of God to neglect to use them, these teachers, is a crime!I have just ordered my second set of Matthew Henry, my first set is held together with duct tape, and written in all over the pages are falling out. Commentaries are very useful if used correctly, and are ...

Perfect
This book was perfect for the clerkship board study. It is small enough without being daunting and presented in a way that you can know every detail of this book before the shelf exam, and look at DSM guidelines for supplemental information on your patients. This and a question book is all you need for this rotation, what a nice change from clerkships like Internal Medicine!

4 Hearts from TRS!
Though Aidn and Bailey have crossed paths at a fetish club they both belong to, the first real meeting opens the story. The conversation is a bit stilted and awkward but totally fits the situation and shows how human both characters are. Neither of them is willing to end the encounter, though, because they can both feel the electricity and desire that arcs between them. The heat between them ...

Excellent self-help book
I'm a psychotherapist. This is one of the best self-help books I've read. The authors are extremely knowledgeable, the book is very well written and unusually well organized, and the exercises are based on solid, evidence-based cognitive therapy principles and techniques. It is unusual to find a book that is both based on serious psychotherapy concepts and at the same time easy to read and ...
