This book was fascinating. The author looks at the way our economy is dependant on oil and energy, shows an alternative theory for the fall of the Soviet Union, and predicts when the next oil crisis will be. Everyone should read the book so that they are prepared for this eventuality. The author believes it will be here in the next five to ten years and he's convinced me its true.

One of my favorite chapters was on energy grades, explaining why alternative energies are less viable than we have been led to believe. As a matter of fact, I've decided to put all my investments in oil and gas stocks. This book may change your life and your investment strategies too.

For those who are familiar with the field, note that this book is in stark contrast to earlier scarcity and growth books, the first written in 1964 by Barnett and Morris, as the author tells us, and the second written in 1979 by V. Kerrry Smith. It gives quite a rebuttal to their theories. It will probably break the field wide open.

In light of current world affairs, it is even more important to be aware of how dependent Americans are on foreign energy. While the book is of the scholarly nature, the author brings concepts and ideas down to a level everyone--students, academics, and arm-chair analysts--will understand.

I am amazed whe I go into a bookstore in San Francisco and find that they don't carry any of Kenneth Rexroth' many books. For many of us that lived in San Francisco during his life he was the teacher. Very few creative artists have been as generous in praising other artists.

His poetry has it's own flavor. Particularly touching are the series written over many years about his first wife Andree. Go to the library!read him!

I can say that after "federalist papers" this is the book ,which gives a reader a clear concept on the issue. If I say it is a review of Madison's articals in FEDERALIST PAPERS,it would be right comment on this book. It includes Montesquieu's thoughts and requires its implication in true sense. This is the best book atleast to tell your friends that you have it on your shellf.

"Slow Down...and get More Done" is a book filed with warmth and humor that spoke to me in terms I could relate to without getting stressed out about all the things I need to do ... in order to not be stressed out. Grab yourself a cup of coffee (or your favorite drink) and cozy up on the sofa for a delightful read that will help you find your peaceful center. "Slow Down" will gently open you to discover the things that bring you satisfaction and joy--and how to make room for them in your life without turning you into some type of time clock junkie. "Slow Down" is a must for all those who feel lost in the race of their days and who wish to find the precious in life.

This book came to me by way of my grandmother. It is one of my most prized possessions. It follows a period in the life of a burned-out executive who finds what he's been looking for -- even though he didn't know he was seeking it. If you can get a hold of a copy, be sure to read this book. It encompasses the passion and staunch traditions of New Mexico -- a state that hasn't quite lost it's edge when it comes to family, hearth and home.

Filled with helpful photos of the amazingly trim author, this book energizes me just by reading it! What a helpful, inspiring, spiritually awakened book she has created. It's well-written, well-edited and so tasteful. You'll really feel your soul connecting with your body when you follow along with these fun and inspiring exercises. Good work, Ms. Lamberti!

Top notch book, a comprehensive look at theatre history. The editors have improved a lot since their last edition. I like to keep mine under my pillow.

A great selection for anyone interested in an overview of the Crusades or the Middle Ages generally. Bradford does not offer much detail on battle tactics or strategy, but does convey quite vividly the personalities of the key participants, their political, religious, and personal conflicts, and the cultural landscape of the period. Most interesting to me was Bradford's ability to trace important aspects of modern Western culture back to their roots in the Crusades.

What makes this book interesting is that it was written between the murders and the trial. Huie knew who the murderers were, how they did it, and never expected a guilty verdict.

The book introduces you in detail to Michael (Mickey) Schwerener and all the details leading up to his murder. This detail will help you understand exactly why and how these murders took place.

This latest edition includes updates by the author to compare his early speculation against the results of the trial.
