This book is the greatest, it covers everything you could imagine in the ocean that can cause you harm or discomfort. I always take it along on all my dive trips, and it has really come in handy, not just for me, but for my diving companions also. We have used the information regarding jellyfish stings, fire coral and stinging fire weed, just to name a few. I would recommmend this book to all divers, as my physician recommended it to me!

Jabes is rarely easy to read - his demands on the reader are too high. In this slim volume, this is even more true for, if one has not read other works by Jabes, it would be difficult to place his primary vocabulary - page, book, Nothingness, etc. - in the intended context.

If you are familiar with his work, however, you will find all the usual reasons for loving the book. An example of an unforgettable image: "Serpent may be a word so drawn out that it cannot help crawling along its own shadow".

His look at death and freedom is etched in thought provoking images of frail birds that provokes a deep melancholy, an emotional thread much stronger than in his other works.

There is a mention of Auschwitz as a formative moment for those living in the second half of the twentieth century, but the Holocaust does not inform the whole work as it does in the Book of Questions. Rather, these aphorisms reflect on the inevitable, individual death in the face of the only truth known to us - Unknowability.

An absolutely brilliant book that marketed as his "last substantial work" reminds one how great a writer was lost in his death.

Disguise Techniques is one of the finest guides to the covert world ever written. It is filled with practical advice and information aimed at allowing the reader to master the art of disguise with the minimum of fuss. Frequent examples of actual situations in which disguise was utilised are given in this book, including a large number of entertaining factual accounts.

The thing that I liked most about this book is that it focuses more on the mental side of disguise, as instead of just how to change your appearance using make-up etc.(although this is covered in detail) Simply putting on a wig, some make-up and some old clothes will not make the grade in the real world. This book teaches you how to think like someone else, so that even your own family won't be able to recognise you.

I urge you to buy this book if you have any interest in the covert world, or if you just like a good read. With this book and "Methods of Disguise" by John Sample, you'll be able to disapear at will.

would like to know the nada book price on 1994 mazda pickup b-4000 that all .

It's great that you can get this much wisdon for 74 cents. This book beats the reader over the head with a seemingly unending variety of ways people talk that guarantee no communication will take place. After going through about 37 of them, you will scream "Ok, I get it." The world is chock full of egospeakers and you know thousands of them yourself. After you learn to recognize the pattern, you will see the rampant insecurity that leads a person down this unrewarding path. It's an old book, but its relevance is timeless. If you find yourself egospeaking after reading this (and you will), you will mend your ways.

The Encyclopedia of Gemstones and Minerals by MARTIN HOLDEN, is one of the most satisfactoring reference book that I have read. Holden professionally combined visual elements and highly detailed information in this reference book. What makes this encyclopedia special is that the readers can easily find whatever they need to find without searching the index or reading the whole table of contents! Everything is alphabetical! If You need to find anything about crystal systems, what you need to do is just to check the letter "c". What you need is always there... And one other thing: You will be fascinated when you see the beautiful detailed pictures and highly informative text.

The late, D. Edmund Hiebert, has done an excellent work which will profit all pastors, teachers and informed Christian laymen as they study the Johannine epistles. Hiebert, who was Professor of New Testament at Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary, has written a lucid commentary which deals with all aspects of textual, lexical and syntactical difficulties, without sacrificing a clear pastoral tone to it.

The only fault that perhaps is in this work, is that Hiebert seems to stumble over 1 John 1. As can be seen, this chapter helps to illustrate Jesus Christ as God (i.e. the Word, cf. John 1:1), and is used to bring people to understand Christ's work in the Test's of Life (as is the theme of 1 John). Beyond that issue, which is minor to say the least), this is an excellent commentary.

If you can have only one commentary on the Johannine epistles, let this be the one (Donald W. Burdick's The Letters of John the Apostle, is second best. Unfortunately it is out of print).

By far one of the highest and deepest books ever written. Exoterically, it is a simply story about wheat grass, growing up. Yet this simple teaching is deeper than the deepest ocean and higher than the highest mountain.

If anyone else relates with me on this book, please write to me @: erb@libertyfinancialservices.org or call me @: 800-867-8024.

Having acquired all four of the Essene Gospel of Peace Books, I have come to find Book II both compelling as well as enlightening beyond my wildest expectations! In easy to read translations, Edmond Bordeaux Szekely has added great wisdom and insight into our modern day world. One will not find it hard to understand these translated ancient scriptures in the least! For anyone even remotely interested in the Essene's, their scriptures translated from the Dead Sea Scrolls or anyone interested in exploring new paths toward Peace, I recommend this Book as well as the full series hands down! Well worth the money as well as time spent reading you will not be disappointed! Do something good for yourself and your soul and get these books!

Surprisingly spine-tingling, each story has an interesting twist to keep you guessing. Wording is easy enough for a young reader, but the stories will keep adults interested as well. While a little scary for a bedtime story, the book will guarantee clean rooms and an end to sibling rivalry.
