Analog Filters
Published in Hardcover by Kluwer Academic Publishers (15 January, 1996)
Average review score: 

An excellent introduction to analog filter theoryOne of my favourite textbooks, although I don't use it very often in my current research. Su's book is very well-written, and covers everything I ever needed to know about analog filters: from Butterworth and Chebyshev filters, through transformations and synthesis, active filters and biquads to switched-capacitor filters. This book is a must-have on any electronic engineer's shelf.

Darwinism Under the Microscope: How Recent Scientific Evidence Points to Divine Design
Published in Paperback by Charisma House (September, 2002)
Average review score: 

Very good overviewI skimmed this. It seemed to have a very good overview of current findings in various fields of science that either point toward intelligent design or against evolution. It has an extensive, annotated bibliography of very recent books for further reading.

Finding Kendall (Delta Justice, No 52)
Published in Paperback by Harlequin (November, 1997)
Average review score: 

Delightful sojourn into the mysterious Louisiana swampFinding Kendall was delightful. While touching on the mystery of a south Louisiana swamp, it gives the reader a taste of the beauty and serenity of the area. Being a Louisiana native, I am always apprehensive about books/movies about the state, but this one left me wanting more. This is the first Delta Justice book I've read and I look forward to reading the rest.

Global Institutions and Local Empowerment: Competing Theoretical Perspectives (International Political Economy)
Published in Hardcover by Palgrave Macmillan (October, 1999)
Average review score: 

My goal in writing the bookAs the editor, I can tell you that my goal in writing this book is to get students of international affairs to start looking systematically at what happens when international organizations like the UN or the EU decide to directly engage local non-governmental organizations in the Third World. This phenomenon, while widespread, has only just begun to penetrate the awareness of most experts in the field, and they often don't even know which words to use, let alone ideas, to describe and explain what is happening. I brought together a number of people with quite different perspectives on the issue and had them each write their own piece, after which we met together at a conference and compared notes. What you will find is that, although we use very different terminology, we all ended up saying many of the same things, that UN efforts to build up local organizations from the outside are analogous to other things in international relations, from neo-colonialism to balance of power politics to development aid projects. In other words, we already have the analytical tools to understand most of what is going on. We are also ina position to predict that these efforts to strengthen "civil society" within Third World countries is probably going to largely backfire unless it is done very carefully with great sensitivity to local political and social conditions. Enjoy the book!

Published in Paperback by Random House Trade Paperbacks (August, 1995)
Average review score: 

From a Teacher's Point of ViewAs an educator and school technology coordinator, this book gives great examples of information that can be used not only by parents but by teachers in the classroom.
A writing coordinator loved the section on writing. She was looking through this book and got so excited with the information that she asked for a copy to put in her educational library. The information about various software and how to use them as part of the writing process was wonderful.
Each chapter provides helpful hints that both parents and educators can use to provide students with a "learning adventure".

Marvels of Science : 50 Fascinating 5-Minute Reads
Published in Paperback by Libraries Unlimited (April, 1994)
Average review score: 

Nice teaching resourceThe stories in this book are nice, short, and work well to fill in extra class time, introduce subject matter, include historical perspectives, or stimulate discussion about the nature of science. I didn't much appreciate the author's liberal use of his storytelling lisence to make up dialougue and such.

SynopsisThey were both hooked. Whales were dying mysteriously off the coast of Cape Cod and marine biologist Shelby Haynes was trying to discover the cause. Which was how she found herself being hauled from the ocean by one brawny Jake Lawson, who soon regretted having reeled her in...Not only was it part of this irate mermaind's job to monitor his salvage operation, it was also obvious that she had no time for "irresponsible" treasure hunters or pirate ships.But Shelby and Jake were stuck with each other, for better of worse, and soon neither one could imagine being stuck with anyone else.
