Physics: Student Study Guide With Selected Solutions Vol. 1 6th Edition2 reviews
Joe Boyle

Addison Wesley, 2004

Best for use with Giancoli Physics 6th Edition but beware! This is only the first volume!
When I bought this item I thought I would get both the first and second volume of the study guide. However, amazon shipped to me only the first volume... I pretty much suspect that "Physics: Principles and Applications" by Boyle is the second volume because Boyle is NOT really the author of Physics: Principles and Applications; it is Giancoli who is the real author. Overall, this book is ...

Lao-tzu's Taoteching: with Selected Commentaries of the Past 2000 Years15 reviews
Lao-tzu

Mercury House, 2001

Finally! A Tao Te Ching with the appropriate commentaries
In Asia, sacred texts like the Tao Te Ching are read with reference to the commentaries of its key historical luminaries. Only in the west is it read by itself, with no guidance. Finally, we have a TTC with key commentaries. Plus, the author has here given a translation that may come as close as possible to expressing the Chinese in English. It is concise, even pithy. A number of other features ...
  
  











  



  
Irreducible Mind: Toward a Psychology for the 21st Century, With CD containing F. W. H. Myers's hard-to-find ...3 reviews
Edward F. Kelly, Emily Williams Kelly, ...

Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc., 2006

Brilliantly Insightful and Destined to be an Instant Classic
I think that it was Carl Sagan who said, "You want to be open-minded, but not so open-minded that your brains fall out." This marvelous book shows that open-mindedness is entirely compatible with scientific rigor. For the last century, the vast majority psychologists, psychiatrists and neuroscientists have believed that thoughts, emotions and consciousness are the product of physical processes ...

View with a Grain of Sand: Selected Poems14 reviews
Wislawa Szymborska

Harvest Books, 1995

Lost in Translation!
The Nobel Laureate in Literature of 1996 was proudly bestowed on Wislawa Szymborska, the first Polish woman to receive the prize for literature. While they are other Polish recipients like poet Czeslaw Milosz, Wladyslaw Reymont, and Henry Sienkiewicz to have received the honor, Wislawa is the first woman. While she writes poetry mostly, she has written prose. My biggest problem with poetry is ...
  
  











  



  
Leviathan: With Selected Variants from the Latin Edition of 16685 reviews
Thomas Hobbes

Hackett Pub Co Inc, 1994

Excellent edition
There are lots of editions of Leviathan around, so why buy this one? The things the editor, Ed Curely, has done to make this edition accessible yet scholarly, like: 1. Updated spelling and punctuation. Although I personally miss Hobbes' original spelling (see the Penguin edition for that), as a teacher I appreciate Ed's making it easier for beginners to read Hobbes' words. 2. Index. Most ...

Making Meaning with Texts: Selected Essays
Louise Rosenblatt

Heinemann, 2005

No one has contributed more to our understanding of the relationship between readers and texts than Louise Rosenblatt. Her classic Literature as Exploration - now in its fifth edition - introduced the transactional theory of reading and pioneered a revolution that continues today in classrooms where reading and literature are taught. She maintains that both the reader and the text are essential to the making of meaning. The reader is active, ...
  
  











  



  
Selected Verse: Dual-Language Edition With Plain Prose Translations of Each Poem (Penguin Poets)4 reviews
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Penguin Classics, 1982

Greatness that does not translate
This is a dual language work. It is a rich selection of the poetry of one of the Western tradition's greatest poets. The German original is on the page in poetry, and below in smaller print is the English translation. I believe that only a person who knows German well can truly appreciate the greatness of Goethe's poetry. The English translations do not pretend to be poetry, and do not sound like ...

Study Guide with Selected Solutions for Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry1 review
Karen C. Timberlake

Prentice Hall, 2008

Valuable asset to Chemistry class.......
This book has additional problems and answers to give the student a better understanding of the text information. I have used it to prepare for several tests. It was required for my on-line class, but we have not had any assignments from the study guide, so I think it should have been optional.
  
  











  



  
Selected Poems from the Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi: Along With the Original Persian (Classics of Persian ...3 reviews
Jalal Al-Din Rumi, Jalaluddin Rumi

Ibex Publishers, 2001

Brilliant, eloquent translation of Rumi's mystical poems
Rumi's poetry, as brought to us by the brilliant and moving translations of Nicholson, represents one of the highest forms of mystical romantic outpourings. Like Fitzgerald/Khayyam, one is judging the poetic expression of Rumi through the translation of Nicholson. The end result is one of the most remarkable collection of poems, full of emotional impact, weighty with philosophical import. ...
