I actually used the basic book for the Atari. Dr. Wacko has an easy style and approach to learning to program. He even includes already written programs to play around with and incourages the user to add in his\her input. This book was my favorite of around 100 books. Unfortunately, I lost the book through theft.

I was given this classic about 15 years ago. It was the basis of everything I ever knew about programming in Atari BASIC. Now I am learning Visual Basic and C++. All the basic concept I laened from Dr. C. Wacko still aply. It's unfortunate that due to the fact Atari BASIC and Atari computers have become obsolete, so has this hilarious and educatonal book. It's better than the "complete idiot's guide's" or "...for dummies" books could ever hope to be. Wouldn't it be great if David Heller wrote new books for current programming languages?

In this collection, the author gives the historical background for each of the tales. De la Torre, who completed graduate work in the 18th century, writes in the voice of James Boswell, the famous biographer of Johnson.

Although the 18th-century style and historical allusions may put off some readers, this work is a classic of the genre and a real joy for those who love historical fiction.

A Drop Of Love is Bradford Johnson's poetic celebrations all the aspects of romantic relationships. This outstanding and enthusiastically recommended collection of one hundred upbeat poems are showcased with chapter illustrations and thematic border designs by Janice Clymer. Love As A Strategy: In our unspoken pledges/we entrust each other/with vulnerabilities/that we don't even know/about ourselves;//in our labor of love we refuel smiles with sunrise,/and acknowledge the sunsets/as they lure away the/last remaining daylight.//In our chess game/with the world we search/our hearts for survival tactics/to move successfully/against the timer;/in our lust for living/we rage, rage against/the dying of what might/really be an answer disguised/within the question.//In our own ambiguities/and uncertainties we may wonder,/but we stoke the fires of action/so that, ultimately, we will/die with our boots on.

After I built my first dulcimer, it took me three years to understand how to play it. Neil's book was the key that unlocked the mystery. And, it fits right in my case!

A superb and well-researched book on the complex relations between congressional committees and federal agencies, a subject that is as poorly understood as it is important.
