This is one of the few concise, comprehensive radiology books on the market targeted to a general audience. The ample diagrams, illustrations, and images are excellent, with clear attention to detail. Would highly recommend this book for any medical student, intern, or resident who would like a quick overview of radiology. A very wise investment.

We often entertain,and whenever we do, I always turn to this book! The selection of dishes are vast and varied enough for any palate. Instructions and ingredients are for the intermediate cook. To those beginners, it is a great learning experience and very do-able! Just follow the instructions, step by step. You will definitely impress your friends and have them begging for more! (Try the "Baked Brie and Caramelized Onions" out of this world) Every single dish has been a hit.

This book is a must have for Wine Tastings, Hors d'Oeuvres Parties, or to start off any Dinner. Buy it!

This book has 128 pages, with almost every page covered by two black & white photographs with a short caption. Chapters are: The Early South End, Places of Worship, Schools, Hospitals, Temples of Fun, Transportation, The 20th Century, The Library, and Business & Industry.

The picture captions are interesting and credit their source. The book may have benefited from more text, but it is chock full of great photoographs that bring this interesting neighborhod to life. Volumes on the Back Bay and the North End are interesting also.

Joni Mitchell, feminine/insightful social voice and poet extrodinaire.

This book is yet another example of her gift for words, through simple yet deeply profound lyric she says more, expresses more, shows more than others who toil for months even years to write a Children's book and still don't measure up to her talent. (When you got it you got it)

The illustrations depicting a caterpillar's metamorphosis is appropriate with it's metaphysical imagery. Illustrator Allan Baker captures the magic of these classic lyrics beautifully.

Why not for children? Life & Love & all of the above, as a critic I argue that children are multi-dimentional and capable of appreciating the spontaneity & playful rhymes that make this book a welcome addition to any child's (or adult for that matter) home library.

"Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air and feathered canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way."

This book is a visual treat and a treasure for any fan of Ms. Mitchell. If you haven't come to appreciate her songs/writing, get this book and see why her style has been refered to as "A Lyrical Miracle!" Finally a kid's title with substance.

"A kaleidoscope of the mind"

Based on texts from the period (many letters), the book is a chronicle of life at the court of Naples between 1730 and 1820, including artistic life, archeological discoveries, war with the French, Austrian occupation...Very entertaining and well written.

Interesting stories of life as it was before, during & after the war. Surprising these men could remember all the details in the book!

Every woman should read this book and practice what this book teaches us about the breast health. It is easy to read and understand. If you practice what it recommends, it is a good investment towards good health.

A friend loaned me his copy of this book. Now, after reading it, I want a copy of my own. I also plan to give several copies as gifts. The authors offer guidance to parents who want to build their families based on Christian principles. The first half of the book discusses several approaches that help you deal with difficult parenting issues. The second half of the books offers techniques to build the basic skills needed to succeed.

If you are a parent who thought you were alone in building your family on a solid Christian foundation, this book will offer you practical advice and encouragement.

This book is a wonderful resource for anyone who loves to grow bulbs, whether indoors or out. The authors list the bulbs by genus and includes additional information such as the best species for all relevant USDA zones. The book also explains techniques for outdoor planting and indoor forcing, in addition to suggesting planting combinations. Overall, this book has made an irreplaceable addition to my gardening library.

From old Omni magazine to current Scientific American and Discover magazines, books and online sources, I have watched Big Bang theory from the sidelines as it has developed over the years. Initially, it made sense, but as the years progressed, especially in the years after the Hubble Space Telescope opened the far heavens to us. I've read the articles, I've seen tweak after tweak over the years, claims of past ability to predict (such as the temperature of the microwave background radiation at 2.7 K) that I know weren't agreed upon until after it was measured, and the like.

The real affront of current-day Big Bang Theory, however, seems to be reflected in a purported quote of Paul Dirac's: "It is more important to have beauty in one's equations than to have them fit experiment" (I doubt Dirac was quite so single-minded, but interviews definitely have him enamoured with such 'beauty') - the seeming belief that nature will bend to equations, rather than the other way around.

This book of Mr. Mitchell's is a clear, compelling tour of the troubles of Big Bang Theory, a survey of alternatives, and a reasonable alternative of his own.

It is an interesting, accessible look at the history of Big Bang Theory, the assumptions it makes, the contradictions it has had to deal with (age of the universe versus age of the most distant structures we can see), the telescope observations that get swept under the carpet, the politics, and some special attention to Big Bang Theory's somwhat new addition, Inflation Theory, and how this extension solves some problems, but seriously complicates others.

There is a lot of repetition in this book, some typos and some spots with emotionally charged language. There is also a plethora of readily accessible math, clear explanations, good organization, a bevy of TLAs (three-letter acronyms - seemingly unavoidable with all things astronomical) and some interesting astronomical observations.

Looking for the actual origin of the universe? You won't find it here, but you will find some compelling reasons to push the origin back, and you'll likely not look at Big Bang Theory in the same light ever again.

A highly recommended read.
