Prescribed Burning for Brushland Management : The South Texas Example is a great reference tool for anyone interested in the mechanics, costs and benefits to prescribed burning on rangelands. Although this book is best suited for Texas, as this is where much of the study was conducted, it is a great reference tool to have on your shelf. The book goes into detail about the evolution of fire on rangelands, how it produced the landscape that our forefathers first set foot onto, and how to manage it for ecological and economical means. The first few chapters explains how fires actaully work, to give the manager a broader knowledge of what's actually going on. Guidelines on when to and when not to burn, such as seasonality, relative humdity, temperature, and topography are all taken into consideration. I have taken a Range Vegetation Manipulation class at Texas A&M University under the instruction of co-author W.T. Hamilton, where this very book was part of the required text and know first hand that he has many, many years of prescribed burning experience under his belt. He has worked with such organizations such as the King Ranch, The Texas Agricultural Extension Service, and Texas A&M University, to name a few, and is pretty much the "guru" of prescribed burning.

The book is very complete, covers most of the field in protein NMR studies. The book is well organised, with plenty of figures to facilitate easy understanding of the subject. Overall, I find it is very helpful for anyone who will be interested in protein NMR research. I have actually seen quite a number of copies in a few NMR laboratories and I would recommand this book to all those who are looking for an complete introductory book in NMR and protein study.

Its really a very cool RPG, its a jewel like the other Robotechbooks, you must have it.

This is a complete reprint of one of the author's 40s pulp novels that has never been published in book form. Overholser shows his mastery of the form weaving togehter several threads into an exciting tale. ALong with the requisite love interest and cattle rustling plot, there is the mysterious Carne's Cove where the Carne family has built a fortified gate to keep outsiders from glimpsing their properties. There is plenty of gunplay in the pulp tradition and all of the threads are gathered at the end to Form the denoument of an excellent Western adventure. Overholser is a must for any Western fan.

It describes details about running a presidential campaign. It gives a lot of examples and shows the negative sides of campaigns. What I like most about the book is that it lists good resources available on the web. This book should be able to answer any questions about presidential elections.

Anyone who would like to have an "insider's look"--into the process of "making a run, for the White House"--should definately check out this book. You just cannot write fiction, that is as interesting (and entertaining) as this. "Politi-philes" (so to speak) will love this book.

I found this book to be informative and interesting when I used it to research on the topic of American Isolationism during the second world war.

What makes Schooling Choices so helpful is that it approaches the same topic from several different angles. Proponents of public school, private school and homeschool all respond to the same battery of questions. Then they respond to each others' responses. The book is specifically aimed at giving insight to Christians deciding on the best place to educate their children. The tone is respectful yet forthright.

I,thankfully, first read this book when our oldest child was in preschool. My spouce and I, both being educated in private schools, planned to follow the same route with our own children. When I read the first section of Schooling Choices, about public schools, I took notes, thinking some very good points were brought up. When I read the next section, on private schools, I felt confirmation for our plans to school that way. Then, when I read the final section, on homeschooling, I became convinced that this was the method for us.

It was assuring to know that this change of plans was not brought about by some convincing speaker or group dynamic, but by a careful assessment of the issues. Five years later, I am as convinced as ever that the decision was the right one for us, and was greatly aided by Schooling Choices. I also believe that different people could come away from reading the book with other decisions that would be just as right for them.

H. Wayne House has done parents a great service by researching and editing Schooling Choices.

I laughed, I cried, I was taken on an adventure. It appealed to my love of things medieval...to my enjoyment of fantasy...and a desire to be taken to another time another world. The author has mixed lovable characters with strong heroes...memorable women and evil villians with skill. There was one foot in reality so that a reader could immerse themself with conviction. But there was always a wonderful twist around every corner. I very often felt like a fly on the wall...he created such vivid scenes that put you right there in the story.

This is a good investment for people who can't afford to hire an attorney to fight a traffic ticket in Virginia. And it contains information likely to be useful in other states as well.

Fast, clear writing that probably includes lot of surprising information you just didn't know. It was written by an attorney who noticed that many people with winnable cases were making mistakes that got them convictions.

For example, the author advises against being too anxious to prepay a ticket. Depending on the circumstances, it may be better to go to court, where you might win -- or get the charges reduced or amended.

On the other hand, it's never a good idea to say something smart alecky or childish to an officer who gives you a ticket.

Likewise, don't lose your temper in court and don't call an officer or any witness a liar -- even when you are convinced he or she is lying. It's smarter to just gather and present the evidence supporting your version of events, and the book gives suggestions on how to do that.

It also explains the difference between a actual defense and an excuse, with the excuse not likely to get you very far. And even if you are found guilty there are things you can do to try to minimize the chances of harsh punishment.
