Jack and Adam Lively have managed to put together a throughly interesting and at the same time enjoyable reader on Democracy in Britian. The most notable feature is the range of texts included: there are texts by philiosophers (Hobbes, Locke...), Politicians (Disrael, Thatcher...) and from debates in parliament as well as Shakespeare, Auden and even Rushdi. Because the authors have NOT only included specialised texts by experts on the constitutions they manage to convey the picture of a living democracy whith all its problems, issues and controversies. I would argue that many of the questions that are dealt with are also important in other countries. In this sense, the book transgresses its original purpose.

A fine collection of horror stories. The Juggler is the best of the lot, a wild story!

Ken Ham keeps amazing me with his ability to take his extensive knowledge of scripture and science, and show how they coexist.

Though over 25 years old, it is the basis of current books stressing more protein and less sugar in our diet. Makes a lot of sense.....

This block calendar has kept people around me entertained for the whole year. You can temper with it, it folds inside out and in several different shapes, folding back showing different months. It is also great as a calendar, takes up little space, looks good, and still shows no signs of wear.

...this is the perfect calendar. Hang it in your cubicle. You'll laugh, you'll cry--behind the humor it's all too true! Don't worry about your own personal pointy-haired one being angry. He won't know the calendar's about him. I'd hide it from Dogbert, though. A five-star gem!

My boyfriend and I think that this is the best adult filmguide there is

Despite what the title above says, "Sim Hell" was the fourth book in the American "Dirty Pair" series. And by that time, Adam Warren's artwork had developed to the point of being truly fantastic. This is some of the most beautiful and detailed black and white artwork you will ever see, and it accompanies a great story to boot!

Much to her dismay, Kei, one of the infamous "Lovely Angels," AKA the "Dirty Pair," is ordered back to 3WA headquarters on Shimogu for her annual "evaluative assessment," which includes a direct interface with the enigmatic 3WA Central Computer. Riddled with anxiety, she proceeds to her assessment, and seems to be doing fine. But, of course, something goes awry, and Kei's partner, Yuri, must go into the system after her.

This is a very intelligently written science-fiction story, which also happens to include the requisite helpings of dark humor, excessive violence, and gratuitous cheesecake one always encounters in a good "Dirty Pair" story. Adam Warren also has a great deal of fun with the concept of nanomachines, using them in some truly creative and shocking ways.

Worth the price of admission just for the "harem" scene, which will have you laughing hysterically. Very highly recommended to all manga, anime, and sci-fi fans. Definitely among the best "Dirty Pair" stories ever told.

Action, excitement, girls, and guns! I love this manga series, and the newly restored color version is great! The plot actually has some depth (unlike manga and anime like Sailor Moon where one episode is a complete repeat of another) and Kei and Yuri are actually smart, sophisticated, STRAIGHT women instead of stupid, brain-dead lesbians. DIRTY PAIR ROCKS!
