The content of this book has many strategies with constructivist focus that help to the teachers for to organizate the class in the best form

This is a thumb's up for a woman. Clear, comprehensive, like an owner's manual on mini-vans. Recommend for the "auto un-educated"

Even though it is not a golden standard for books (it does not show color pictures or hard covers,but instead simple paperback pages and b&W photos), it might by termed an excellent reference for all who are involved in major car restoration or model building projects, since it presents reprinted articles of contemporary magazines, with road impressions, specifications and performance figures fully illustraded. It is a good history reading for all who are not in the hobby, nevertheless, as it show us typical thinking in the mid 60's.

A great book on the history of one of America's most legendary carmakers. It has just enough history on John and Horace Dodge and their early beginings. It also goes into good detail about the later years after the company was acquired by Walter Chrysler. This is a must read for the avid automotive buff, especially for Dodge, Chrysler and Mopar fans.

This is an excellent resource for those few of us that are interested in making Mopars handle as well as modern cars. Much of what is in the book is a little outdated, but there is still a lot of information that is not available anywhere else. I wish SA would publish an updated version (yes, I know there is Chrysler Performance Upgrades, but it does not have the hardcore info in Mike Martin's book). There is no other RWD Mopar book that even mentions autocross, for example. Buy it if you see it!

This Sonoran desert guide to common plants is published by the Southwest Parks and Monuments Assoc. It is an excellent guide to keep in your day pack as you hike southwestern deserts. Black and white illustrations are well done and are a great help in identification. Plants are organized by color of flower blossoms which makes it easier for the everyday hiker who is not familiar with botanical taxonomy. The book includes commons species of cacti, desert trees, shrubs, annuals, and perennials. I particularly enjoy the inclusion of details about medicinal and/or edible uses of the plants by native Americans of the area. My appreciation of our desert plants is greatly enhanced when I understand how the plants have been used -- and can still be used today. I am a 30-year veteran educator, and use information from this book regulary when on nature hikes with students of all ages. The book has only 4 pages of color photos of plants. I would rate the book as 5-star if it had more color-photo pages. Other desert plant I.D. books have more color pages, but are also much more expensive.

Actually a paper or thesis, it gives some good insight into the truths around hackers, crackers, and the "scene" around them. The survey they undertook at H2K and DEFCON 8 gave great insight and disproved the common myths and perceptions of the hacker/cracker culture.

A chapter written by Carolyn Meinel, insight and background to some of the more public "hacker" cases and how the scene has developed, give this a good read for anyone in Information & network security or IT for that matter. What is the beginnings of 2600? Detailing the White, Black, and Grey hats or the scene and culture, this is a definite read.

This book is probally the most valuable tool you can own in your tool box. The manual covers not only full engine overhaul but also tune up procedures and general maintance.

The manual is laid out very well and allows those with little or no car experience to easily perform numerous tasks and trouble shoot problems they may have.

You can't go wrong at the price because even if you use it once it's more than paid for itself.

I would call this book a classic. I read it and had it read to me as a small child. I should hope this book continues to be read to children of elementary ages.

This book was a blast. A simple pulp western that entertained me to a high degree. I bought "Dan'L" thinking it would be little more than a filler book between more substantial reads. It surprised me.

Dan'l and his pals, Nolichucky Jack and Choctaw Indian Zeke Morningstar in particular, are in constant danger as they head north along the Natchez Trace trail from New Orleans to Boonesborough, Daniel Boone's self made hometown. Loaded with silver as payment for delivering large ice blocks to that southern port city, Dan'L and his crew are forced to battle through numerous traps and sneak attacks as they traverse northward.

The story is engaging, the characters well drawn and interesting. Dodge Tyler has an infective style. At times, the the rural, late eighteenth century period slang spewed by the characters is hard to follow, but man, is it fun! Tyler marinates every scene with local flavor and period history without slowing the story down. What I loved most is the humor Tyler laces throughout the book. I belly-laughed many times. Tyler is at his best when he creates a scene involving dialogue banter. Characters continually sling poison-tipped barbs at friends and foes, which broke me up and had me wondering why Tyler isn't more well known.

It's a fun book, Dan'L is a worthy, engaging, hero/protagonist, and I will definitely read more of Dodge Tyler. A three star book bumped up to four stars because Tyler remembered that adventure westerns are about escape and enjoyment. I had a blast reading this tale.
