....a gem of useful, compact, condensed, and well-written information on the art of writing clearly. Interesting, lively, informative, a must-have for the writer.

The release process in the "Golden Bridge" revolutionized my life. It has totally cleared the negative emotions listed in the book, not only from my present and all past lives, but released those emotions on all levels--conscious and unconscious. If a new negative emotion impacts me, I utilize the same process to release it on all levels. It has so positively changed my life that I cannot recommend this process highly enough to anyone who wants to be free of negativity in their life!

The best thing about Golden Cables of Sympathy is that it introduces many more questions than it answers. The real historians who'll review this book will praise its scope (75 years, dozens of countries and the works of hundreds of women), its research (McFadden visited libraries on three continents, and even went so far as to search an Irish courthouse to uncover the death certificate of Anna Doyle Wheeler, whose date of death had been lost), and its indisputable place in women's history. But I more appreciate the fact that Golden Cables of Sympathy will open doors for many college students. Undergraduate history majors and master's candidates will find a hundred topics that beg for further research and analysis. Golden Cables of Sympathy treats many of the "stars" of women's history (George Sand, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Margaret Fuller, Harriet Martineau and others), but students will profit more from learning for the first time about Ernestine Rose, Phoebe Palmer, Anna Knight and more who were absolutely part of the developing women's movement; they influenced, assisted, argued with, changed and were changed by those with more familiar names. McFadden's book (and the depth of her research), will surely generate more discovery, and her research lays the groundwork for a generation of great student work. Read this book for pleasure, but read first for inspiration.

this children's book is outstanding. A classic. It is moving, gripping, mysterious and in the end, utterly satisfying.

Anyone interested in animal totemism will love this book. Nicki Scully provides a unique opportunity to travel in guided imergery with an assortment of animal guides from North America and Egypt. Thoth, the ibis headed god, is central to the book. Nicki's frequent travels in Egypt and her considerable knowledge of the Egyptian pantheon lends it a unique and fascinating flavor. Art work by the artist of the astounding Medicine Cards, Angela Werneke, adds a stunning sensual aspect.

This book covers Spanish History from the beginning of Charles V's reign through Phillip III's reign. The book concentrates mostly on Charles V and Phillip II. It was written about forty years ago and is the from the first revisionist books about Phillip II. Davies examines many of the famous rumors about Phillip and debunks them. Davies also was one of the first to examine Phillip's method of government. Geoffrey Parker's book on Phillip II is one of the latest books on Phillip II and his method of government. Alot of the revisionist ideas of Parker's are in this book, which for some reason he doesn't quote. It is a very clearly written book, and unlike Parker's book follows through all of Phillip's reign. The majority of the book is about the political events of the period. But, there is also a chapter on Spanish Culture during this period.

As the first bible I was ever given, I read this book as a child. The text was not only easy to understand but the pictures helped me to embrace the stories that have played a role in shaping my faith. I highly recommend it to any young Christian or parent that wants to acquaint one's child with the scriptures. As an adult, I passed my copy on to my nephew and my husband and I gave a new copy to our god child at her Christening. It was an honor to do so. I looked at several other children's books but, I wouldn't stop searching until I found this specific text for her.

This work of fiction takes place in Nero's Rome between A.D. 54 and A.D. 68. Political turbulence and social instability are the norm, incorporating evil, corruption, immorality, sometimes in graphic and gruesome descriptions. In these conditions Christians gather to form a church, cope with opposition and work out their faith in daily circumstances, even as they find disagreements in their own ranks. Exciting, attention holding, thought provoking, historically accurate--all these I found contributed to a "good read."

An outstanding book for preteenagers. The author has an incite into young people, and truly holds the readers' attention. I have given it to all the youngsters I know and highly reccomend it.

This is a small book - just 36 small pages, but is worth it's weight in gold to me.

The cards are line drawings, and are not very artistic (e.g. in the Knight of Cups the waves show through the horse's back feet), but along with the appendice very enlightening.

I guess Westcott wasnt as good an artist as Pamela Smith or Lady Harris (or wasnt trying hard), so the drawings are not good art per se.

Comparing the pictures with the court cards from Wang's Golden Dawn Tarot Deck shows that Wang's minimalistic pictures are faithful to the source - the original drawings dont have a lot of details, though they're a bit more detailed Wang's.

The appendie contain such information as tables of colours correspondences to astrology signs, planets, notes, tree of lifes, etc and some explanations of symbols that appear in the cards.

This is not an instruction book - it's just card drawings and tables manuscripts, but the information is not widely available elsewhere.
