Response to the physician in Florida
The physician from Florida who advised against combining phentermine and Prozac was not familiar with the literature and had no experience with the medicines. In fact, neither phentermine nor Prozac used alone cause any weight loss after three months; the patients always gain the weight back even if they continue the medicine. The phen-pro combination, on the other hand, extends the ...

Far before it became the quickest way to get around, aviation was a renegade industry filled with thrill seekers.

Don't Let Darwin Win - Read the Book!
I am not a climber, so when I had the opportunity to read Allen's "UltraSafe" I planned on a few minutes of reading per evening until it was finished or I just gave up. I opened it up one night and didn't put it down until I had reached the back cover. Yeah, some of the technical terms made whistling noises as they flew over my head, but I managed to catch most of the concepts. What makes this ...

Losing weight made easy!
A comprehensive and pratical approach to weight-loss is offered in "Beyond Phen-Fen". The author clearly explains and demonstrates how to lose weight, but more importantly keep it off. Of all the weight-loss books I have read, this book has impressed me the most and certainly helped me lose more weight and keep it off.

Excellent, experienced sober strategies and advice
Practical, levelheaded strategies and advice that obviously come from experience. Not full of polemics like many investment books...every paragraph adds to the reader's understanding toward direct application. You could read many of the popular investment books and never run into the techniques she presents which are an essential part of any portfolio manager's arsenal. While the book's title ...

Uplifting story of courage and friendship
I've read dozens of WWII memoirs by American, British and German writers. This is the best! Lt Machorton, 19 years old, wounded and unable to walk, was left to die in the Burmese jungle, 300 miles behind Japanese lines. Despite his seemingly hopeles situation, he resolved to survive, and the story of how he did so is an epic. The horrors of close-quarters jungle combat against the Japanese ...
Forgiving & Not Forgiving: A New Approach to Resolving Intimate Betrayal

What is forgiveness and is it mandatory?
12 Step programs stress the necessity of making amends to all who have been harmed. Most of the practicioners of 12 Steps confuse amends -- repairing an injury -- with seeking forgiveness from the injured party -- "I've said I'm sorry, and now you have to forgive me!" The literature surrounding these 12 Step programs also tends to make the transgressor the injured party, by having the ...

Should be on every ChE's bookshelf!
Trevor Kletz's book is a summary of a lifetime of lectures on the subject of process safety. It is a fascinating collection of observations and ideas distilled from his many books on the subject. I always prefer material that has gone through the fire, which has served as presentation material for courses and training. He has a clear message, which is defined succinctly in the appendix of the ...

Interesting, different aspect
The book doesn't just accept the sociological view of the development for certain kinds of violence--it digs into scientific research to show that biology most likely has its place in our violent world. It also shows what we can do to change the direction we're headed in. A fascinating, eye-opening read.

I have been treating individuals who have committed sex offenses beginning in 1983. I have used several different workbooks over the years as an adjunct to individual, group and family therapy. This workbook is clearly the most comprehensive cirriculum that I have found. It is an excellent resource that covers various treatment techniques focusing on the myriad of problem sexual behaviors that ...

Very hot and educational
It is a pity that every gay man is not exposed to the educational aspects of Safer Sexy. Although somewhat dated because the book was first written at the height of the AIDS epidemic, unfortunately much of the techniques shown in the book are still quite relevant. But most importantly, the book is HOT! For tender lovemaking to passionate diversity, the book is a wondeful catalog of how to ...

Easy to read, get up to speed on protecting kids on the Web
If you are not computer-savvy or if you fear your kids are outpacing you in computer skills (hint, they know more than you think they do) then this is for you. ESPECIALLY for grandparents raising grandkids. HINT HINT. The internet is a funny place, a Wild West of opportunities, scam artists, predators and information (like in a Wild West Saloon) you don't want underaged kids to see and involve ...

Grand Central Publishing

approaches essential
We found this book because Richard Rhodes raves about it in his "Erotic Journey" autobiography. The book helps enhance lovemaking... and love. First part consists of facts... anatomy, general technique. Then, the second part consists of exercises, starting with simple communication and kissing and moving to techniques for helping each other reliably achieve 30-minute climaxes. It's nearly ...
