It's a very good textbook!
I read this book before I puchased it. It's good for students who don't have the strong background in statistics because the authors used very clear words to explain the statistic formulas.
I love the summary of key concepts and formulas very much. I strongly recommend evryone to buy it because you will love it.

The next best thing to a front row seat!
Starring the incredible talents of Jason Alexander and Edward Asner, this 93 minute, one-cassette, audio theatre production of Bruce Friedman's Steambath also features the narrative talents of Mary Gross, Ruben Sierra, Arthur Hanket, Gerrit Graham, and Paul Mercier. Directed by Robert Robinson, Steambath is the metaphysical story of unique and unforgettable characters in the steam room of a bathhouse and their engaging discussions of their lives, dreams, and desires. Steambath is as entertaining as it is thought provoking, and with its excellent technical production values, a welcome addition to any personal or community library audiobook collection.


The Stolen Jew
Published in Hardcover by Henry Holt & Company, Inc. (April, 1981)
Author: Jay Neugeboren
Average review score:

A complex read with a book within a book.
If I could bring this unusual book into popularity, I would be doing many readers a favor. It is a story about family, about self, about Judiasm. Many complex relationships with people who have issues in their lives. The main character is an author and his book is set into the larger book so that the reader is actually going between the two stories. A trip to Russia to aid refusniks is woven into the plot. If you like books with great substance, do yourself a favor and get this one.

Studies in the Theory and Method of New Testament Textual Criticism (Studies and Documents, Vol 45)
Published in Hardcover by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. (September, 1993)

An insider's look at the forces impacting modern NT versions
Are you aware of the many textual changes, not due to translation, that have affected New Testament versions since the Reformation? Perhaps you have been puzzled at the addition, subtraction or differences between verses, even whole paragraphs, that exist among the translations from that time up until today. If you wonder why your Bible is changing, you need to read this book.

My first Bible was the King James (or Authorized) version. I read from it, studied it and cherished it as my most prized possession. Unfortunately, I also found much of it hard to understand. Naturally, as many Christians do, and have done, I started looking at more modern translations of that noble Book, and what I discovered was disturbing.

Though I found many of the newer translations to be much easier to read, I discovered that certain verses were missing. Not translated differently, but MISSING! I wondered what was going on. After reading further, I discovered that other verses were added, and, once in a while, entire historical accounts were either entirely missing, significantly changed or noted to be of doubtful originality. I had to get to the bottom of WHY these changes were made, and WHO made them-- so I began what to this day has proved one of the most rewarding studies of my life: the study of New Testament textual criticism.

Textual criticism is the science that attempts to reconstruct the purest, most original form of text from the many thousands of, at times, conflicting and divergent documents that span, in the case of the New Testament, many centuries. This volume, actually a compilation of seventeen studies, provides a fascinating, insightful look into the discoveries, and the theories that attempt to accommodate them, that have impacted the very form of today's New Testament.

Authored by two experts in the field, this volume will serve as an excellent introduction to the science of New Testament textual criticism. You will learn the basic terms and ideas endemic to this field of study, and survey the varying methods (and underlying theories) used to determine the most original form of the Christian New Testament. I highly recommend this valuable book-- with an important qualification.

The potential reader should be advised that this volume is written by two individuals who, though recognized authorities in the field, represent a particular theoretical approach, popularly known as reasoned eclecticism, that is only one among several currently taken. As with any historical science, differences of opinion exist among the experts, so proceed with an open mind, and enjoy!

The Supervisory Encounter: A Guide for Teachers of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis
Published in Paperback by Yale Univ Pr (September, 1997)
Authors: Daniel, Md. Jacobs, Donald Jay Meyer, and Paul David
Average review score:

An invaluable resource for teachers of psychotherapy.
This is an essential book for the supervising psychotherapist, be the supervisor a psychologist, a marriage and family therapist, a psychiatrist, a social worker or an analyst.

The authors succeed in conveying the subtleties and nuances of teaching psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis in an easy to read and well-organized manner. The content is serious and clinically sophisticated. The authors' candor and many real life examples keep the reader riveted as specific supervisory encounters are presented along with clinically well thought out teaching strategies. Throughout the text suggested supervisory interventions are accompanied by clinical explanation.

This book lends a refreshing clinical depth to the chapters dedicated to the opening phase of supervision, supervisory interventions and termination. In my opinion, the chapters on Self-Esteem Issues for the Supervisee and The Supervisor's Role reach the core of the delicate balance of the supervisory relationship. Other chapter titles include: Inductive and Associative Modes of Thought, Affect and Professional Development and, How Personal Should Supervision Be?

In The Supervisory Encounter there is no dogmatic stance but instead the reader encounters an attitude that is tolerant of different individual styles of supervision and of learning. This attitude conveys compassion and respect for both the supervisee and the supervisor while maintaining the boundary and the distinction between psychotherapy and the teaching of psychotherapy.

Synthesis and Backward Reference in Husserl's Logical Investigations (Phaenomenologica, No 131)
Published in Hardcover by Kluwer Academic Publishers (February, 1995)
Author: Jay Lampert
Average review score:

Rigorous Study of Husserl's Epistemology
Lampert's study of Husserl's Logical Investigations systematically works through each of the six investigations to establish the exact fashion in which experiences bind themselves together to produce the experience of a coherent world of objects and a coherent subject. The analysis is complicated, detailed and difficult, but extremely rigorous and very illuminating, both about the nature of meaning and about Husserl.

Through his careful focus on the specifics of the text, Lampert is ultimately able to conclude that Husserl's project of phenomenology is of a piece with the projects of dialectics and deconstruction, inasmuch as Husserl's is a philosophy of self-organizing meanings that are not governed by an independent telos. Experiences tend towards synthesis, and in so doing project beside, ahead of, and behind themselves a coherent context for themselves. In particular, Lampert focuses on "backward reference" as a crucial form of synthesis, according to which meanings present themselves as having been awaited by the past, that is, they project behind themselves a past that was anticipating them.

Lampert's book should be required reading for all serious students of Husserl. It is an education in itself, as well as being an essential guide to the rigorous demands of Husserlian phenomenology.
