Professional SQL Server 2005 Performance Tuning from Wrox ROCKS!
I have long been impressed with Steven Wort as a result of his work at Microsoft & his promiscuous, insightful posts on various SQL Server sites. When I learned he was the lead author of "Professional SQL Server 2005 Performance Tuning" I could scarcely wait for its publication. Now that it's been out for a bit I'm shocked to see only two reviews here on Amazon. This book is a worthy read & ...

Good Lost 1930s Lawyer-Sleuth Mystery
I've heard about the legendary Gillian Hazeltine lawyer-dectective series, but never had the opportunity to read them before. They are delightful, fast-reads, clean and wholesome, if you like Carr, or Christie or Gardner, you will love these novels! They mix humor and mystery and the hero is no handsome superman. The way he wins some cases would shock Perry Mason. The book's promotional copy ...

Australian satire
Mathers published this novel, a wild, eccentric and often ribald romp through many locations in rural Australia across two generations, in 1972. His first, Trap, an urban novel targeting racism in a then apartheid country under the White Australia Policy,won Australia's most prestigious literary prize, the Miles Franklin, in 1966. This kind of novel doesn't often get published in Australia these ...

This book will deepen your understanding of brewing.
This book is a wonderful update to what was covered by Jean DeClerk in the 1940's. What was emperically known at that time is more scientifically explained in this book which brings your brewing knowledge to a whole new level of understanding. The 'science' gets heavy in some parts, but if you really want to know, this is a fine book.

Concise and full of information.
Plenty of practical and useful information here and well documented with summaries of past research. I learned quite a bit about dosage, brands, and the most recent theories about how St. John's Wort works. This herb appears to work on three neurochemicals: dopamine, norephedrine, and serotonin. Prozac and other antidepressents don't work on dopamine. Many people with attention deficit ...

War and Penelope
I hope that those who read my review will forgive me because I would like to talk mainly about Penelope, the wife of Odysseus. When I read the Odyssey for the first time, I thought it was a wonderful adventure book with beautiful and dangerous women and I laughed with that half-wit of a Polyphemus, one of the cyclops. But near the end something was missing, it was not what it should be. Odysseus ...

St Johns wart is an effective natural replacement for prozac and other anti depressive drugs having few side effects due to one's using the whole plant and not just the possibly dangerous raw chemicals contained in western medicine.

Nothing like it out there...
As a Neuropsychiatrist, I find this book has it all - and in a simple to understand, concise and organized way. Whether you're a consumer looking to learn more about what your physician is prescribing, or a health care provider, this should be a "must have". It puts many of us "professionals" to shame. You can also see my comments in the book - but suffice it to say that if you want to learn ...

Don't worry if you can't speak German
I first bought this book in the late 1970's on the Obersalzberg and still enjoy it. There have been many pictorial books about Hitler's mountain idyll above Berchtesgaden, but this is one of the best. A downfall is that there are no colorized photos inside, but the quality of the black and white images is very good. The text is also accurate and interesting, if you can read German. But the book ...

Brilliantly Mocking, Insulting & Enlightening
Before anyone even starts reading this book, think Dave Barry or PJ O'Rouke. The tone of this excellent piece of writing is both sharply insulting and brutally honest. Gita Mehta's book deals with the spiritual equivalent of some financial bubble. Disillusioned by their own culture, many Westerners flock to the East to seek enlightenment. Exotic India became their spiritual resort. Many ...

Helpful info
This little book gave me enough information on St. John's Wort and other herbal treatments for depression to make my decision on whether or not to use it. This is definitely not for one who is severely depressed and not for myself. Regardless, the book explains an interesting fact that St. John's Wort is widely "prescribed" for depression in Europe. If you are suffering from mild to moderate ...
The Diamond Bullet Murder Case
1 review
PageTurner, 2001
entertaining lawyer-detective series
From the 1930s this series supposedly inspired Perry Mason. Attorney Gillian Hazeltine pulls rabbits out of the hat to save his clients. There are Lincoln like qualities about Hazeltine, he is gawky and not at all handsome. At the same time, the series has a slight tongue-in-cheek satrical quality, like a good screwball comedy. Worth reading if you like your crime nostalgic.

The author initiates his discussion of Hypericum/St John's Wort with a detailed investigation of the key active ingredients of the plant, their various molecular structures and biochemical action. Besides its efficacy against depression, Hypericum is also used for mental problems like anxiety, panic, nervous exhaustion, insomnia and addictions.
