This is one of the best school age books writtern about General Grant. Gives an overview of his whole life, not just his life during the civil war. Nice illustrations and black and white photographs of his later life add a nice touch.

Susan Gregson has written a well-researched book about a complex Civil War figure. This colorful, heavily illustrated overview of the famous general will appeal to children and adults alike. Well-known Grant scholar John Y. Simon consulted on the book, assuring the book's accuracy.

Ulysses S. Grant has been shafted and misunderstood throughout the century since his passing. This book rectifies that slight. I've exhaustively examined the author's interviews and notes for this book and can attest that his scholarship is unparrelelled. Garland truly and completely understood his subject in his many nuances. This is the premier Grant biographty, unsullied by the passage of 100 years since its publication. If you seek to know Grant as he really was, Garland's bio is a MUST HAVE.

A veritable time machine, this book picks you up and drops you down in the middle of the 19th century where the you will be treated to the most incisive and unbiased view of Grant this reviewer has ever seen. Garland interviewed people who actually knew Grant and the immediacy of his observations shines through. You'll never get this kind of a portrait through the filter of a century of history. One of a kind.

This book is well written and documented with a wealth of information gathered on the subject of the afterlife. The author holds true to his writing style of easy to read and understand language for the average individual. As with all his work, thus far, it's based upon the information from the Edgar Cayce Readings as well as other informative documentation.
I highly recommend this book to anyone with questions regarding the afterlife.

As a certified past-life therapist, I realize that Barbara Lane has put into words what I have instinctively known for years about accessing clues to past life memories. It is no accident that we tend to be attracted to or fascinated by specific people, places, occupations, or to scenes from movies, books, etc. Ms. Lane's book is insightful and very well written. I believe this book will be most helpful for anyone who is curious about his or her past-life history.

If you think that there are insignificant details on the Bible....THINK AGAIN!!. It will make you want to go deeper in what the bible says and what it REALLY SAYS.

Ever sinse I heard about it I felt the urge to buy it.....And it didn't disapointed me. It gives you a reason to be more carefull and more aware of little "insignificant" details of the Word of God. Everyone that I have told somrthing I read wanted to know more.

The authors clearly know their material and. perhaps, most importantly, know how to convey this information in a clear and forthright manner. Facts and statistics saturate the content of the text, and do so in the professional style one would hope for. Historical, with expert research always evident, this is a resource which ought to be on the desks of all of those professionals who are involved with the complex and often tedious demands surrounding actuarial assessments!

This is an excellent book about the development of actuarial tools to determine risk for Violence and Sex Offender Risk. The books content covers the history of research in this area over the last 25 years and methods and measurement. The Chapter on clinical judgement is excellent and sets the stage for the need of actuarial assessments to enhance our ability to determine risk. The appendicies contain the two risk tools developed by the authors: 1) Violence Risk Appraisal Guide (VRAG, and 2) Sex Offender Risk Appraisal Guide (SORAG). I highly recommend this book!

This book is simple to read and easy to implement. It is an alternative method to traditional medicine. Everyone should have it in their home. It shows in a step by step method how to heal headaches to shoulder pain to tooth aches and on and on. I have used the method(s) suggested in this book and it works. This is what the nursing profession would probably call the healing hands method.

After reading the book, I was amazed at how simple the author was able to relate such a seemingly complicated theory. After trying some of the techniques myself, I am thrilled to find healing at my fingertips.

This book lays out the simple truth--having any chemical imbalance that affects mood is no more "sinful" or shameful than having poor vision that requires glasses to correct. Helps us to get past the judgments we lay on each other--that if there were enough faith or a "real" conversion, then this kind of problem just would not be present.

Instead, in encouraging, scripturally-based writing, Dr Mullen brings correction and solutions to problems most believers want to deny are even present. Thank you, Dr Mullen!

The myths and misconceptions and guilt we had were corrected by this eye opening book. Thankfully, there is a source of information that taught us the reality of depression--that it isn't something you can just "get over"; it isn't just a "bad mood". But, also, that it isn't hopeless--there are answers out there. It is also comforting to know you are not the only family out there dealing with this. With more understanding from books such as this, there is hope that the embarrassment and stigma will disappear, and the healing will begin for many, many more.

Having heard Micheal Grant Speak while/before his book was being published, I just want to say this man could be a genius!!!
