Howie Long, John Czarnecki

For Dummies, 2007

Do it for your country.
First of all, I didn't know jack about football strategy. Scratch that, I knew some. The point is, if you wanna be the ultimate "go to" guy when you and your pals are watching the game, read this book. You do wanna be the "go to" guy, don't you? Yeah, you do. The layout is wonderful and easy to understand; even a dummy can understand it. Offensive strategies, defensive strategies, salaries, ...

For Dummies, 2009

This is the users' manual for the "new" Facebook
This newly revised, 2009 edition is the missing-- actually non-existent-- users' manual for the "new" facebook. Some of the previous reviews were written about the first edition, which is, as the reviewers say, indeed obsolete. This is a very good summary of Facebook's features for it intended audience, people who are new to social networking in general and new to Facebook specifically. As ...

For Dummies, 2007

The Dummies have done it again
This book cover the Windows Office Suite. It is not intense on any of the programs but gives you a general knowledge of each. If you want to get more in depth you should get a one program only Dummies book or if you want to get real technical get a program bible. But to get a basic knowledge of the 8 programs that make up the suite, this is an excellent choice. Dummies make a good line of books. ...

All I Need To Know About The D90
This is the manual that should have come with the D90. I come from the old school of Nikon F bodies with film. I cannot help but think in terms of F-stops and shutter speeds. This book, with quality paper and color images, has everything I need to know about using the D90 in my own terms. I highly recommend this book for anyone using this camera. My first DSLR was a D70 and I never found a ...

IPhone review
This book is extremely helpful. Certainly more helpful than what comes with the IPhone. I was not happy with that at all. This was worth the money. I've learned more about the IPhone and I've already had it a year. Elizabeth Blocksom

I cannot say enough great things about this book. I started sewing a month ago and had literally never touched a sewing machine.

For Dummies, 2009

A must have item!
This is a great DVD. This is my first SLR camera and I know very little about the many, often daunting and intimidating, features of my camera but this DVD explained them clearly and intelligently. I now feel confident about using my camera and have already had some good initial results. Olympus should include this DVD with every camera.

For Dummies, 2003

Don't Be Fooled by the Title
Catholicism for Dummies, like the rest of the "Dummies" series makes understanding the subject easy, in this case, Catholicism clear and easy. It is one of the best purchases that I have made at Amazon.com. Whether you want to know what Catholics mean by "holy water" or "Hypostatic Union", "Tabernacle" or "Transubstantiation" it's there. If you want to know what the difference between the ...
