This is the first book I have EVER found myself in. I have always been fascinated by psychology, but have never fit into anyone's theory or box.

It has a number of interesting twists and turns that make it hard to put down. I also had to force myself not to look ahead. While the focus of the plot is the space shuttle, there's actually a lot more to it. It has a glossary in the back but there's just enough ...             Piano: The Making of a Steinway Concert Grand24 reviews James Barron Times Books, 2006 A Captivating "Biography" I took my copy of "Piano: The Making of a Steinway Concert Grand" to the beach with me.

Starr Twilight Times Books, 2008 The Last Protector Good science fiction and fantasy can be hard to come by these days and the biggest problem is a lack of characters that seem real. Too many are absurd extensions of silly comic book style heroes, all strength and no weakness and never any deeper than a cookie sheet. But "The Last Protector" does not suffer from this problem. The characters are real and seem like people you could meet in your ...             The Secret of Atlantis8 reviews Otto Heinrich Muck Times Books, 1978 The best book written on Atlantis It's not even a close call. This is easily the best book ever written on Atlantis. Speculation is kept to a minimum while scientific analysis prevails.

Anthony in Her Own Words6 reviews Lynn Sherr Times Books, 1996 A Wonderful Book - buy it. My youngest daughter (7 yrs old) needed to do a biography on a famous woman for school and chose Susan B.

I could do this ...             Past Due: The End of Easy Money and the Renewal of the American Economy7 reviews Peter S. Goodman Times Books, 2009 The definitive analysis of the global financial meltdown Peter S.
