A superb book that shows how a kitten rejects his siblings and boy/girl "parents" and tries to be a tiger. He endures the privations of sleeping outside and eating grass because "that's what tigers do". In this very easy to read book, only 2 or 3 sentances per page this theme is repeated until at the end he meets a tiger in the zoo. Then he gets frightened and realises that he isn't really a tiger after all. An excellent book to reassure those who try to be something they are not and fail.

I did write one of the poems in this book, but I also purchased it, so I'm assuming that it's OK that I'm reviewing it both ways (besides, I wanna win 50 bucks!) This book is a wonderful read for anyone who enjoys poetry - it has all different types of poetry in it - haiku, free verse, patterned rhyming - everyone would love it!

I am biased, because Charles Baillairge', the subject is my great-grandfather; however, he is truly a fascinating man. The book focuses on his life's work of engineering and architecture, and is well researched. The book contains several illustrations. Recommended reading for those interesed in these fields, or for those interested in the history of quebec city.

What are the brand names of coca-cola? How can they enter the chinese market? what were the problems that they met?

Great book. It covers 14 Catholic classics including St Francis, St Augustine, St John of the Cross, St Teresa of Avila, .......and gives about an 8 page summary of each. I can then go and read the full classic after knowing what I am in for so to speak. I find that some books that are good for some are not good for you and though I am positive that we all need to read these classics at some stage in our lives - spiritually we need to be ready for them, and by reading the summaries it has helped me to see which is speaking to my soul.

This book is great. It has showed me many new areas of the city to explore. And I have lived here all my life!! Hikes are rated from easy to very difficult making it a good book for everyone... regardless of their fitness level. If you live in the area BUY IT!!!

The book is divided into two parts corresponding roughly to undergraduate material and graduate. The selection of topics is robust; the writing is clear and consise. The level is senior and above. The reader should have some knowledge of advanced math such as group theory, and analysis of algorithms. Great book! One of the best ever!

You discover your blood pressure's high, and your MD puts you on pills. Now that your pressure is controlled you can relax a little, knowing the one or two pills a day reduce your cardiovascular risk, right? Control Your High Blood Pressure Without Drugs, by Cleaves M. Bennett, M.D. is your wake-up call. Dr. Bennett explains in non-technical language what blood pressure is, why we need it, and what exactly goes awry to drive it up and keep it elevated. After convincing the reader that high blood pressure must be controlled, Dr. Bennett reviews the usual treatment regimen most practitioners employ: lip service to non-drug methods and a prescription for one or more medications. Although Dr. Bennett concedes that drugs may be necessary as a holding measure, he takes a dim view of their long-term value, showing the reader how drugs merely set up a "tug-of-war" in the body between toxic chemicals and reactions to stress within the body which brought about elevated pressure in the first place. Claiming success in weaning hypertensives off their pills, Dr. Bennett argues persuasively for life style changes in diet(low-salt,low fat), exercise, and stress reduction. He educates, motivates, even graduates the reader from the same step-by-step course in blood pressure reduction offered at his clinic. Blood pressure medicine today is available and afforable enough, and with mild enough side effects, that it is difficult to motivate doctors and patients to follow Dr. Bennett's regime closely enough to obtain dramatic results. But it is worth the effort to try lowering blood pressure without drugs. Even if you still require pills to do the job, following Dr. Bennett's guidelines will enable you to get by on less medication, as well as give you the satisfaction that you're taking charge of your destiny. Cleaves Bennett's book is a "must-read" for everyone taking pills to lower blood pressure, especially those with mild to moderate levels.

I'm a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and I think this book is really wonderful. It gives an interesting perspective on one of our nation's most fascinating college campuses and its surrounding town. Take a chance and give this interesting read a try.
