It's great to have a book full of 'friends' to turn to for ideas. Covers just about every issue you'll face with a toddler. Helpful hints that get you thinking... Another great A-Z book - written from a mother/expert's point of view is Perfect Parenting - The Dictionary of 1000 Parent Tips by Elizabeth Pantley.

The Kelly Blake Teen Model series was among the best series of books I have ever read before I actually became a teenager. They inspired me to be who I wanted to be and made me a better person all around. I was not much of a reader when I was younger until I picked up these books.

Excellent book on ethnic music in America. Of most interest to me is the polka music. The title itself makes you want to read Green's book! Extensive information is given on Frankie Yankovic and the Cleveland-Style, or Slovenian-American-style, polka movement. Other areas and styles are also addressed. This is a MUST READ for anyone interested in polka music!

This really is a "must-have" book for anyone interested in the details of what Plains Indians wore. It contains hundreds of wonderful full colour plates of Ledger Drawings by Plains Indians of Plains Indians. The production values of the book are also very high indeed, so that it is not only a marvellous reference work, it is also beautiful to look at and to hold. The standard of scholarship of the accompanying text is also excellent. As an author and artist, I found it truly inspirational. The only possible criticism is that more of the Ledger Drawings themselves were not reproduced, because the references to them are tantalising.

Yes, it's a bit expensive, but this book is enormous and packed full of information. At 1200 pages, you're probably not going to read this from cover to cover. Instead, you'll want to have this on your shelf whenever you need information on production and inventory management. The book is actually a compilation of chapters by various authors. On the plus side, this results in having each topic covered by an expert on that specific topic. On the minus side, it results in some redundancy from chapter to chapter and inconsistency in the quality of each chapter.
What's great about this book is that if you need information on a topic related to production and inventory management, you are almost certain to find the topic covered in this book. I definitely recommend this as the starting point in your manufacturing operations library.

One of the weaknesses of Sherry's biography of Graham Greene is the additional information which has come to light since he began writing. This, in part, explains the fact that between the publication of the first and second volumes, the size of the work had expanded to three volumes with the second volume being far more detailed than the first.

In writing this work, West has come at it with the view that his readers would likely be familiar with the other biographies and makes frequent reference to them (including scathing rebuttals to claims made in Shelden's travesty of a biography). This ends up creating a work which helps fill in the gaps that were unavoidable in Sherry volume 1 and makes this an essential companion to Sherry's work for the serious Graham Greene scholar (or fan).

Gee! This is exactly the kind of book I wish I had written myself. Well, I did, sort of, I guess. A special thanks to the authors who provided their work for this exciting collection of essays about culture, diversity, and agency.

This is another book in the Rookie Reader series and one of my favorite Rookie Readers. It reminds me alot of the Mark and Janet reading primaries from the 60's and 70's. In this story a boy and girl wonder if it will rain (clouds, lightening, thunder.) They go through the thought process until it does rain and then they play in it. This book is a must have for teachers who teach beginning readers. The word list is easy and it tells a story that makes sense and that children can follow.

This book presents an excellent and clear overview of the principles of recombinant DNA in a clear, intelligent manner. The best I have read on the topic by far.

Eric points out in short, concisely written meditations the many slippery places, things and people that I have become addicted to or that trigger my relapses. In my case, isn't wanting more money, bigger homes, nicer cars... a good thing? When do I have enough? When am I ok? Mr. Greene asks me examine this.

I meet my addictions on page after page. Sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, somtimes raging and sometimes denying! But everytime I react strongly, Eric asks me examine the issue with strength, courage and honesty.

I recommend Mr. Greene's book for all recovery addicts who want more then cessation of our obsession and seek serenity and joy.
