A great book with great ideas!

The Need for Earthquake PreparednessThe book also serves as an effective planning guide for government agencies, businesses, and indiviuals. Proper preparation is critical if this now highly developed region is to survive another earthquake or series of earthquakes such as those that occured in 1811-12.


A Good Introductory Text at the Graduate Level

Exceptional short stories

Public policy in Britain

A stimulating readThe author takes a sample of the Holmesian Canon and subjects them to careful analysis to come up with sometimes surprising results. Atkinson describes his readings as "eccentric", a view which I must support. By drawing parallels between the stories and a variety of literary, pop cultural and religious matters, some far better known than others, Atkinson reveals sidelights on well-known stories which should delight many readers.
The book would be of interest to students of literary criticism or ardent Holmesians, and especially to those who are both.
My view: a good and stimulating read that encouraged me to re-read old favouites.


more of a correction than a reviewI did rate this book, however, based on another book I have by the same author and publisher. It is Practical Psychomancy and Crystal Gazing (1907) and at 93 pages it basically has the same dimensions as this book does.
