The Devil is Precise
On my walk through the LoA edition of Arthur Miller plays I bypass The Enemy of the People, the Ibsen adaptation, which I think is a waste of everyone's time, and go straight to the Crucible, which I had never read, nor watched on stage or screen. Very odd. It is a truly gripping piece of modern classic stage writing. Of course AM needed to educate us always, so this story is not just a story ...

Making Children Thoughtful Readers Is So Important
Teaching young children to think and especially think about what they read is so important. Too often children read words with no idea about what they are reading. As a teacher I constantly use children's literature to teach comprehension. Two of my favorites are:Life's Little Lessons: An Inch-By-Inch Tale of Success and The Big Squeal: A Wild, True, and Twisted Tailwhich not only have fabulous ...

By Far The Greatist Graphic Novel I Have Ever Read
This book was amazing. It kept me guessing all the way to the end, which in my opinion was ripped-off. It has great character development and a complicated but superb storyline. Highly reccomended.

Rat Race Lost, State of Denial
Hopeless fathers & sons were a favorite theme of Miller. The pressure of failing aspirations. The horror of failure. Drawn between overconfidence and self-doubt. Flashbacks on scenes from a dreary life. Lies to others and oneself. Failures in job and family. The play is one of the quintessential pieces of modern American theater. Its themes are known and have been expounded endlessly. Why is it ...

Brief, direct and to the point...
The author keeps it brief and direct, but he hits the nail on the head. Time to quit pointing the finger at everyone else and get to work. If I owned my own company, I would make this mandatory reading for all my employees.

Great book!
Originally was out to just purchase Watchmen. Several reviews for that book said it was very good like DKR. Also noticed that DKR was on Amazon's top 100 seller list (along with Watchmen). So I went ahead and bought both. I can't match the other great reviews out there for this book but I still wanted to add my 5 stars to it.

Best "Christian" Book I've Read
What an awesome book! This is the best book I've ever read that could be called Christian. It is totally honest and funny. I hope every Christian will read this book. To the reviewer who says that Donald Miller used a bunch of cuss words in his interview with The Door Magazine, I say that he is lying. I read the interview, and he used one cuss word (not many) that had to be blanked out. I ...

GREAT
If you are a fan on the Batman movies, the comics, or the batman mythos at all then this book is a must read. I have always been a fan of the batman series since I can remember. This book offers a great history of the caped crusader. Not only does it introduce the hero of the story but a few of the major supporting characters and how they came to be. It really shows how far gotham has fallen into ...

Just what I needed
When you finally have a resource in your hands that shows a mirror to the child you're trying to help...well, you know what a great feeling that can be. While I could re-read many sections so that I could better understand the deficiencies my child's nervous system has, I came away from this book knowing that I finally have a handbook on his problems. It's a very comprehensive collection of both ...

Helped with interview
This book was well worth the money and the bit of time to read it. It prepared me well for my first interview shortly after reading it. I just completed my third interview with the same company (different people). It also gave me some ideas outside of the box.

Motivated
The book is written by academics for academics, but I think it is well written for the layperson who is interested in the topic. This is a good book for anyone who is interested in methods for changing behavior.

Subtle, but gets the clear message across
My 2 year old daughter loves animals and when she was only really talking for a couple months, 50% of her vocabulary was probably the names of the different animals. Thus, it was no big surprise that she LOVES this book. I got it because my pediatrician talked to me about potty training at our 2 year check-up, though dd showed absolutely no interest in potty training at all and I wasn't even ...

Fantastic
As a student of Business and having a limited acquaintance with law previously, I have to admit that this text is worth every penny. For those of us embarking on an entrepreneurial path, knowledge in the realms of torts, constitutional law, copyrights, cyberlaw, etc. is absolutely imperative. The text contains recent cases, lower court decision, their backgrounds, abridged text submitted by ...
