I teach high school freshmen in a state-history survey class, and I feel that this book is a great learning tool for that age group, as well as any age-group above. Howard Johnson give the reader a clear understanding of what the midwest was facing at the time of settlement by describing in wonderful details the geography and wildlife, as well as the hardships faced by early pioneers. My students, who usually don't enjoy anything I assign them to read (or at least tell me they don't) - were very perked-up about this novel, and were disappointed when they were through. I feel that they truly learned a lesson about early pioneers and their experience, much as what the "Little House" books did for me when I was 8 years old. It's just a shame that this book is so short. Those in Indiana, esp. the Indianapolis region, will really get a joy of reading this book as it takes place in Marion Co. However, any student of midwestern history, no matter how old will find it just as satisfying.

This was probably one of the best books I have read on Home Schooling. The Moore's get back to the basics with the teachings of our children. The information is nothing new, but it is something that hasn't been done in the last 50 yrs. They have brought back the training of kids from how it had been done for hundreds of years to how it is done now. After reading the wonderful suggestions and life stories I feel I to can do this wonderful thing for my children. Thanks again Dr. and Mrs. Moore.

Rosalie More's Honor Among Thieves is a superbly written novel of suspense, intrigue, and gunplay set in the Old West as a woman on the run and an outlaw must work together to rescue their loved ones from marauders. Romance and fierce action combine in this enthralling, adventurous, thoroughly entertaining saga. Honor Among Thieves is the stuff of which blockbuster movies and high-rated television mini-series are made!

This work of Richard Moore is more than worth your time: both the graphics and the content are going to enchant you.
As suggested by the title: 'Horny Tails' this graphic novel is a compendium of several erotic short stories.
As said, these stories are worthwhile - but the most interesting part of it is the variety in the graphical and narrative style.

I have not read the entire book and am not qualified to give a proffesional review I thought it was a book that reveals the deepest side of manand of nature.Thank you for letting me and others read it.I always like to read a good vampire novel... You never know what's out there.

In How To Live In The Kingdom Of God: Challenge Of The 21st Century, freelance writer and Bible teacher Richard Rundell addresses the essential questions concerning the nature of the Kingdom of god within Christian tradition and scriptural understanding. Beginning with what and where is the Kingdom of God; through rankings in the Kingdom, to the concept of "storehouse" has it pertains to the Kingdom, every aspect of the Kingdom of is addressed in a clear, scripturally sound textual narrative. How To Live In The Kingdom Of God is especially recommended for anyone seeking to satisfy their spiritual hunger for a deeper understanding of what the Kingdom of God can mean to them and for them as they live out the days of their lives here on earth.

If you're like me and you like the sound of hand tools working wood, developing fine motor skills, saving money by making things yourself and the challenge and reward of making your own tools, then this book is for you. If you believe that happiness is another power tool then you'll be dissapointed. If you value ingenuity, creativity and simplicity in the workshop then you'll be impressed with the design of the tools in this book as well as the materials that are used.

This book has detailed plans for hand planes, clamps, and many other critical tools for the carpenter and cabinet maker.

There is also a little bit of history/context for this book. The authors explain that they developed these tools to stimulate the economy of rural Africa. Local artisans could not afford to buy expensive factory made tools, so by showing them how to make their own tools they helped these people earn a living.

I bought this book a couple of weeks ago and it was an easy read. It has a lot of good tips in it. I really appreciated the part about websites, since reading this book I built my own art site and I have more knowledge about making money in the arts. My only dislike is that in the back of the book there is a lot of resources for artists, but it's just for American artists. It'd be nice if there was a list of resources for Canadian artists too.

I read HYPERSENTIENCE shortly after its publication in 1976. It is a fascinating book, full of interesting case histories based on Marcia Moore's work with past-life regression, and full of information on techniques which she used in the course of her work. Interest in the therapeutic value of past-life regression has spread widely through the psychological and psychiatric community and resulted in the invaluable research of Raymond Moody, Roger Woolger, Brian Weiss and others. All of them - not to mention their clients - owe a powerful debt to Marcia Moore.

The book, frankly, is a how-to guide for past-life regression, and debunks many of the myths surrounding that particular discipline. First of all, it emphasizes that, contrary to the work of sensationalistic authors like Frank de Felitta (author of AUDREY ROSE), one cannot be seriously harmed by it. If Marcia's techniques are used, the client (whom she calls the sensor) remains totally in control at all times, and if the memories that come up are so painful they can't face them, the subject can come out of his or her trance at will. (I had this happen more than once with my clients.)

The second myth she debunks is that the facilitator (the regression therapist) simply plants suggestions into the mind of the sensor. In Marcia's technique, the facilitator bends over backwards to avoid planting suggestions. There are ways to "prime the pump" and bring up memories without planting suggestions.

The third myth that Marcia dashes is that the memories that come up are always to be accepted as gospel truth. No facilitator worth their salt believes that. It's not that the technique is faulty. Memory is faulty. How well can you remember everything that happened to you last week? But Marcia did believe that even if regression material was mistaken, or off track, or even faked (and yes, people do fake it - but a good regression therapist can spot a faker easily) it still told the therapist something valuable about the sensor. So even if one doesn't totally accept reincarnation, studying HYPERSENTIENCE can shed light on new ways to learn more about the human psyche.

Marcia Moore died long before enlightened and open-minded scientists, primarily students of modern quantum physics, took a second look at the questions of immortality and reincarnation - and began to wonder if there wasn't something to it. Some have even formulated theories that Marcia knew about way back in the early days of the New Age. Wherever she is, I'm sure she is gratified that the latest discoveries about the nature of the Universe are beginning to coincide with the theories surrounding immortality.

I worked with Marcia Moore from 1976 through late 1978, shortly before she died - and with her encouragement wrote books of my own about reincarnation and its implication for society. Yet whenever I give a workshop in past-life regression, I still use HYPERSENTIENCE as a text - even though it's been out of print for a long time. Would that some enlightened publisher would bring it back into print.

Actually, the I Ching is not the world's oldest book - some from Egypt, Babylonia, and even the Chinese Classic of Poetry are older. But it is something more important: the world's oldest book which has been in continuous use, an honor it shares with the earliest books of the Hebrew Old Testament. Most of the JudeoChristian Bible however is almost 1,000 years more recent than the I Ching whose earliest parts were recorded about 800 BCE, according to current scholarly opinion. The I Ching is also the all time best selling book published by Princeton University Press and consistently ranks quite high on Amazon's rankings.It is one of the books that everyone should read.How has the I Ching has been able to stimulate the imaginations of the ancient Chinese and modern Westerners equally? There is a mystery about this;one's first contact is likely to be a bit startling since much of the work is terse and obscure.One is inspired to meditate on what the Changes meant to readers three milennia ago and what its allure is today.

There is no better way to discover the extremely wide range of ideas stimulated by the Changes than this Annotated Bibliography.There are entries for all the established authorities such as Edward L. Shaughnessy and Richard Rutt but equal place is given to those who are distinctly unorthodox, even bizarre, in their views. Nearly all entries are annotated and in an objective manner.Doctoral disserations, journal articles and reviews are included.The effort that has gone into this is staggering and all interested in the Changes must be extremely grateful to the authors.

If you have any interest in the I Ching whether as a scholar of ancient China or for divination, or as significant element in the transmission of Eastern culture to the West, this work should be at the top of your list for related reading. A bibliography may sound as if it would be dry but the annotations are fascinating and give a idea of the range of thought regarding the I Ching which can be obtained in no other way.
Highly recommended.
