Pub Weekly clearly didn't find the right reviewer in this instance. The is a fairly far-out book, but one that I've been drawn to over and over, the way the book itself is in constant flux, allowing you to follow the delicious "footnotes" or reading straight through. Readers like myself, intellectual poachers, find other ways to follow the book's many threads. The best way to describe it might be to compare it to the late novels of Samuel Beckett, the forceful quiet, the urgent diminutive, spacey and yet faintly ethical, even ecological obsessions. The music in this long poem is soft, but profoundly compelling: not unlike the dadaist composer Eric Satie...the stucture, form, and traces of melody all return and you intuitively come to understand their logic. As a young poet interested in learning to push the range of my own writing, I learned a tremendous amount from this book: ambition and restraint. It is one of the least academic books of poetry to come out in a long time.

Great book from known authors worldwide in the area of Critical-care medicine and Trauma medicine.
I have been able to review a couple chapters, which are very concise. Only one problem, many mistakes when the book was publish. otherwise I rated 5 stars.

Leonardo Boff, the brazilian priest who tried to change those old catholic dogmas describes how human is finishin animal and vegetal life all over the world in the name of welfare.

A book that will make us undeerstand how blind we all are.

This book is a well written exploration of the guilt we all carry around with us and how we find the strength to face it. A surprising twist to more modern ideas of how we deal with guilt. Definitely worth owning.

This book is magnificent! It tells of the history of movies that were censored because the were too violent or to sexy. The book covers movies from the beginning of the cinema up to the 1970's. The book's pages are also covered in screen shots of the cut scenes from the movies. Alot of them contain nudity, so don't let the kids get ahold of it. If you are a movie buff like me, then you need this book! It definitely the best book I have ever bought!

These 10 minute reviews are excellent drills for grammar practice. It does for grammar what calculaddar does for math!

Christopher Phillips provides the reader with a fascinting insight into the character of Nathaniel Lyon. Rarely in reading a biography has the reader come away with such a clear and precise understanding as to what the central character's personality was really like.
By providing this insight into Lyon's character the reader can clearly understand what motivated Lyon to take the actions he took in the troubled 1860's in Missouri. Lyon was a not very likable individual, He brought a zealot's zeal to virtually everything he believed in or did regardless of the conseqences. In the end this zeal brought about his own death. A great read...two thumbs up.

This exciting story kept me turning pages. It was a refreshing switch from the romance suspense I usually read! I am a Phillips' mystery & suspense convert. I can't wait to read the second of the Rick Cunningham series....Deadly Friendship!
