As an adult, I was fascinated by this book. I enjoyed the photos and the biography. I think this is a book for adults and children to read together and to use as a springboard for dialogue about life's challenges and how to deal with them, as well as the discrimination faced by a minority. It is all about the incredibly difficult challenges that one man has gone through (discrimination, parental loss as a child, polio, etc.), and is inspiring in how he reinvented himself over the years and managed to find success.

I found this book very inspirational, as it tells the life and struggles of an artist and Hollywood special effects master. The language sparked my interest and made me want to read more. I especially enjoyed the details about Chang's work with Walt Disney Studios and the Star Trek TV show. The book made me feel that I personally knew someone famous. This is an interesting story of a man who accomplished so much. As an educator, I would recommend the book to students and to adults. It will help others realize that we CAN get past difficult times and that we can nurture our own creativity in order to see our own dreams come true.

Riley's and Rimmer's guide is a must-have for serious comsumers of pornography, covering, as it does, the years when (arguably) porn first skirted the crusted fringe of mainstream pop-culture. True, pornography perhaps first demanded critical scrunity when VHS brought it out of the ... booth in the 80s; but such a demand was, at best, muted. But when "Ass Rage 3" and "Natural Bone Drillers" (both given 5 stars in this guide) hit the shelves we witnessed an artistic reclamation which enabled the soi-disant culturally savvy elite to buff the chubster and bandy about terms like "Gen-X kitsch" and "post-PC irony." This tremendous guide is alive to that seminal shift, and indeed provides video-still evidence of several graphic examples of it. Hats off to the authors for such a perceptive treatment.

I thought that it was a very good book if you like sex and I tried a few of the suggestions on getting to know your lover with my wife and she seemed to enjoy the new me.So that is why I am interrested in futher videos and books.Please give us new material to enjoy!!!!!!!!!!

The problems are generally at the level of International Physics Olympiad competitions or higher, and are very suitable for freshman/sophomore honors physics courses. The problems are tough and very interesting, with many unique and unusual twists, guaranteed to challenge even the best students preparing for physics competitions at the senior high school and undergraduate levels. I would guess that those sitting for PhD qualifying exams will have difficulties with some of the problems. The surprise is that the solutions require no more than elementary calculus, although lots of original critical thinking and insight are necessary.

Gnadig and Honyek are both leading the Hungarian physics olympiad teams for many years, while Riley is a Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge University. Riley had a previous equally interesting but slightly less difficult problem book called "Problems for Physics Students," covering quite a few interesting Cambridge University Natural Sciences Tripos and entrance exam type questions for the best UK high school students.

If you are a physics buff, you will derive countless hours of enjoyment (and frustration - if you resist the temptation of looking at the provided solutions too soon), plus it will bring your understanding of classical physics to a deeper level.

A few other worthy physics problem books include Thomas & Raine's "Physics to a Degree" for undergraduates, and Dendy's "Cambridge Problems in Physics" for high school students aiming for Cambridge University entrance. The Russian books "Problems in General Physics" by Irodov and "Problems in Elementary Physics" by Bukhovtsev are very good too but they may be harder to find. An upcoming excellent (and tough) classical mechanics problem book is David Morin's Physics 16 course text at Harvard - still in its draft form but downloadable from Harvard website.

EASY READING. PRACTICAL AND WORTHWHILE IDEAS. GREAT BUSINESS TOOL TO BUILD YOUR PRACTICE. WILL MAKE MONEY FOR YOU AT A FAST RATE.

this is a great book that allows you to understand the dynamics of the aerial archelogy.

It is an excellent book to help any business to trace its CAD/CAM strategic path. It shows very interesting practices to take care of, and how to's techniques when making your CAD/CAM long term strategic decision.

I can now quite honestly say with conviction that others observe us in far different but still similar yet thought provoking, light-shedding manner. Wim Mertens, I believe, has done just that. Man oh man, I love nothing more than digging into a good chapter of this book. Always insightful, Mertens very colorfully relates the cause, themes, and application of "American 'minimalist' music" in a straight foward and entertaining way. A "way" that most American authors I believe have yet to go.

I read some excerpts from this book in Modern Painters and was curious. I had seen her show at the DIA Center in NYC last year, and was not sure what to make of her work. But as a writer on art, painting in particular, I think she is amazing. The book gives a good sense of what painting is fro Riley and also what is involved in the pursuit of painting today. She almost comes off as a rather cool individual, but she so straightforward and clear that I ended up feeling that she had given as much as one could want. I await my next opportunity to look at her work in person.

This is the third book in this series I have read, the other two being: Reasons for Knocking at an Empty House: Writings 1973-1994 about Bill Viola and Gerhard Richter: Forty Years of Painting about Gerhard Richter. These are beautiful, amazing books.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book about Bandelier. If you are interested in Bandelier or history it's a great read.

Very informative, and a lot of fun to read. For new readers, a great introduction to Holmes and his world; for old-timers like me, a fun refresher course! Highly Recommended!
