Tickle your funny bone
A must read for any and all O'brien fans. This is one the funniest books I have ever read. The good doctor spins increasingly outragous yarns and somehow makes it all seem plausible. The writing is first rate and the characters are vivid and real.

For Beginners and Seasoned Cooks Alike
"The Cook's Book" by Jill Norman is a text that has increased my kitchen skills by leaps and bounds. Regular pizza became stuffed pizza pie, ordinary chocolate chip cookies took on a cappuccino flare, and maduros were added to our realm of savory side dishes. (See site for photos.) More than these particular dishes, "The Cook's Book" expanded my knowledge of cooking techniques. I learned, for ...

Norman Vincent Peale
Prentice-Hall
, 1948
Another Masterpiece!
Dr. Peale begins with a lesson on listening to God in "creative silence", that in a worship atmosphere, a person can tap into God's thoughts and overcome the challenges of life. Bringing a spirit of expectancy is important if one is to achieve the desired results. "...faith is the contact point with God's power" he tells us on page 12. He says a friend gave him a working definition of a competent ...

Heartwarming, funny, tender and oh so important!
I am a single man and did not read this book because I lost a spouse (though I have given it to others who have). I read it because it is simply magnificent. It touches on the human condition of loss and tells us a story of love and laughter, shares a life, a relationship,and leaves us with the distinct feeling that we are better off for having read it. It's simplicity is it's beauty, and ...

Wonderfully Inspiring!
Dr. Peale starts out reminding us that Jesus said He came to give us life and to give it more abundantly! (See John 10:10). From that Scripture he goes on to tell us that "You can do no more than you believe you can." Actions begin with the seed of belief. This book is designed to plant the right seeds of belief within its readers. Faith enables an individual to get in harmony with God. It is ...

stories of expats lost in the South Seas
This was Hall's last book, a collection of six short stories about Americans and Europeans he knew personally during his years on Tahiti. The title story, The Forgotten One, is probably the most interesting. Written half a century ago, it tells the tale of an Englishman who couldn't come to terms with own sexuality and fled to a remote atoll in the Tuamotu Islands to be alone. The story seems ...

Great Philosophy in a Great Edition
If you can track down this long out-of-print edition of Hume's Dialogues, I suggest doing so. It's far and away the best edition of this philosophical classic of which I'm aware. For this volume, unlike most editions of philosophical classics, includes very extensive editorial material; and that material is written by Norman Kemp Smith, a major twentieth-century Hume scholar. What, exactly, do ...

first good statistical treatment for general distributions
The quality movement in the US in the 1980s and 1990s has led to a great deal of quality efforts that stress statistical measurements of process capability. These indices are intended to answer the question "How often will a manufactured part fall outsided specification limits?" Certain standards and tests based on capability indices have validity when the process variation has a normal ...

A must-read for any heart attack survivors or those who know of any
Heard THE HEALING HEART by Norman Cousins (author of ANATOMY OF AN ILLNESS, one of my all-time favorite books). In THE HEALING HEART, he describes his experience as a heart attack survivor, and tells how to both overcome panic and utilize the body's magnificent healing powers . . . as he notes, "Death is not the enemy. Living in constant fear of it is." Furthermore, "Nothing is more ...

Enthusiastic about enthusiasm
This is one of the best books I have ever read on the topic of turning adversity into advantage. I have several of Norman Vincent Peale's books and loved them all - but this one beats the rest in that it seems to me to be the easiest to put into practice. There are several real-life examples of success and lots of different ways of going about it. Basically - be enthusiastic about life, ...

Excellent and Encouraging
On the second page of the book, Dr. Peale tells us that "...inspiration and motivation are exactly like nutrition. You have to keep on taking it daily, in healthy doses." He provides a strong dose in this wonderful book. He goes on to describe the importance of having an intense passion for what one does as well as for life in general. He encourages his readers to get outside themselves by ...
