I just finished reading this book. It's left me stunned to think that this really how broadcasters are. This guy Kenner is a nutcase and there is something wrong with his mind. Some of the other characters in the book--the callers mostly--are lost souls trying to latch on to somebody and Kenner appears to the the warped mind they connect with.

This is a great book. I'm sorry the delivery took so long, but it was worth the wait. If this book portrays radio, I wish I'd've gotten into it! I've told my friends to buy this one. The ending really got me. I didn't expect what happened.

This book is an exciting read. Joe Kenner makes his first mistake when he throws away his life with his first love and partner on the air, Barbara Miller, known as Lumpy. He makes his second mistake when he marries Alice Bradshaw who is not even remotely close to the woman he should have to help and understand his quirks. After that, he makes mistake after mistake, abusing alcohol and women and living in the fast lane. He's aided in his career by a program director who believes in him and even there, he has the nerve to steal the man's idea and desert the ship in favor of his own personal gain. Joe Kenner is cold and uncaring. Not the type person you would want to have for a friend, but probably well-suited to the industry to rise to the top. I liked the book very much, would recommend it, and will read it again to catch the clever lines I might have missed the first time through.

This book was a gift. Someone must really hate me. It was the sickest thing I've ever read. The innuendoes are perverse. Very much fiction considering cats only get it on 3 hours a year. Definitely not for children. P.S. I am not a Puritan, it's just sick.

I got this book when I was ten and I thought it was so funny. The artwork is great too, the way they draw up the letters to look like real stationary is fabulous. I still have this book. I love it. Any cat lover would love it too.

This is a great light hearted book, with several sets of "love letters" from different types of cats in all sorts of love. A great fun book to read before you go to sleep at night

As a great fan of Western history, this story proved to be a bit disappointing. Max Crawford is certainly knowledgeable about the location for his tale and the sad story of the last days of the Comanche Indians. In this respect, he's done his homework well. My main complaint is that things just don't seem to flow. Episodes occur, often times not seeming to relate to one another and the author often cuts short things I wish he had expanded upon. The highlight of this book is Crawford's description of the awesome landscape and the difficulties the men had in coping with it. While not a gripping story, it's worthwhile reading if you're a fan of the Old West.

Although lengthy, descriptive paragraphs describe setting and plot, I found this book interesting and informative concerning the fading out of the once powerful Comanche Indian nation in Texas during the l870's. I enjoyed the poetic prose thoughout his narrative.

Crawford spins a good yarn, and the book is replete with lots of interesting and accurate Texas history. However, the guy ain't no Steinbeck! I wish he would have had someone edit his long and often convoluted sentences. As a tired old retired guy with thick glasses I think Crewford tends to keep typing much too long before he decides to call it a paragraph. When a paragraph goes on and on for a page-and-a-half my eyes get weary. However, it is worth the effort to read this book.

I read several books in this serious and I, well, hated them. They are depressing. These people seem to have no joy in their lives-they are very somber and come across as rather nit-picking, self-righteous characters who are sometimes bound by things that really seemed to have no great basis in Christianity. They made me mad.

Yes well... what to say....Okay. Well I though that this book was well written and wasen't nearly as wishy washy as I thoug it wouls be. While n ot up to par with well known titles such as Lord of the Rings, To kill a Mocking bird, and Jane Eyre this book does have a charm. Its one you can currle up with and finninsh ina day if you really wanted to. I personally do not enjoy romances but this one kept it at a minumum and was well balenced with other areas. i also do not read many inspirationall novels but found this one exceptable. Even if you are liek like me you'll find this book to be a good quick read. Give it a try.

THIS SERIES WAS MY FAVORITE OF ALL INSPIRATIONAL FICTION BOOKS, I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN I BORROWED IT FROM A FRIEND , SHE KNEW HOW MUCH I LOVED IT & SHE GAVE IT TO ME.

This book is truly inspiring. I have used Ms. McQuade Crawford's book for years as a reference for myself, my family, friends, colleagues, and clients. Filled with humor, insight, good science, and years of practical herbal knowledge and application, The Herbal Menopause Book helped me and will help you to understand the physical and emotional complexity of menopause. This is a terrific book to introduce the concept of wholistic therapy to both the novice and the experienced healthcare provider. Some may be put off by her light tone, but you get the feeling she really loves what she does, which is helping women. Why bother with health fads when there are qualified herbalists like Ms. McQuade Crawford, and indispensable books like this one.

Drawing on her extensive practice as an herbalist, the author provides dozens of specific herbal and other natural remedies for women facing health issues that arise in perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause. The nature and physiology of the most common health concerns are clearly explained, and herbal formulas to ease the transition are detailed. The author also offers guidance on nutrition, vitamin supplements, exercise, massage, visualizations, and other natural therapies.

if you buy just one menopause book, this is THE one to get. The Herbal Menopause Book includes much good information not only about the herbs and formula combinations but includes a wealth of knowledge on the entire process of menopause. Amanda simply yet thoroughly explains the transformation womens bodies undergo during this incredible time of life. Sound nutritional advise and "wise food choices" are listed under each condition. Amanda also dedicates a whole chapter to the issue of HRT, and how to come off it safely with the use of herbal medicine. The book is not just an herbal - it is filled with widsom and wit all underscored by Amanda's flair for empowering women of all types and ages.

All the information is there if you know terminology and can find it in the book.

The book assumes that you have a working knowledge of computers. It would be helpful if tasks were assigned and were solved.

I am an instructor and PC Professional. I use this book to teach persons with little PC experience. It's a great desk side companion and handy reference book. Excellent tops and tricks, easy to read and reference.

Eveything you need to get going with Windows 98 presented so you can understand it. No nonsense and straight to the point. No filler. Good price, too.

I found this to be excruciatingly boring. The material is at best obsolete and of little value. A waste of time and money and not appropriate to one searching for a history of Jesus.

I hold this book high and dear, despite a few disagreements. Anyone doing Jesus research should have this tome in their library. While I do feel this book is outdated (being it was written at the end of the First Quest and we are now in the Third) I do feel that better scholarship has been done out there that is more reliable and less blasphemous (such as John Meier, N.T Wright, Ben Witherington) and basically, while Schweitzer really did have a VERY good overview of the entire spectrum of historical Jesus studies, this book can be considered somewhat "outdated". The Jesus Seminar, as well as such scholars as Robert Funk, J.D. Crossan and Marcus Borg in both collaborated and singular efforts have claimed to not only carry on the legacy of David Freidrich Strauss, the supposed pioneer of what came to be the First Quest for Jesus, but they claim to take it further. While I heavily disagree with the Jesus Seminar and many of these "scholars" out there, I agree that they do take it further than any work in this book.

Scweitzer, however, outlines the book MASSIVELY well. He does not skimp on details and progress of the studies for each scholar he mentions and being a Theology professor himself, I do tip my hat to his studies. He does them well. He states more the studies of other scholars and does not go so much into what he has discovered. But I do feel that since this was written, there is much evidence against claims made in the book and, if you agree with the progress of the Historical Jesus studies, much better work out there, even by the Jesus Seminar.

This book is a great read, I recommend that if what I wrote interests you, buy it. However, you will definitely need much supplementary materials from both liberal and conservative scholars to revise your frame of thought.

Albert Schweitzer wrote this great classical study in 1906, back when historical criticism was predominantly a German enterprise. "The Quest of the Historical Jesus" eulogizes the quest of 1778-1901, indicting every scholar of this period for making Jesus over in his liberal self-image, for replacing the original Jewish apocalyptic prophet with a moral and ethical teacher suited to the Protestant temperament. As the reviewers below have observed, Schweitzer demonstrated that everyone had been peering into the well of the Gospels only to see themselves at the bottom. It's now become a cliche in historical-Jesus studies to speak of the painting telling you more about the painter than the subject being painted.

So who was the historical Jesus? For Schweitzer, he was an heroic, albeit deluded, messianic prophet dominated by the conviction that he was God's chosen instrument to announce the imminent end of history -- burning with apocalyptic zeal, marching to Jerusalem, confident that he could compel the Kingdom's arrival on earth through a voluntary death. But the anticipated divine intervention failed to occur, and Jesus was crushed by the system he defied, the entire drama ending on the cross. No resurrection.

Even if Schweitzer's portrait of Jesus is a bit extreme, he at least got the basics right -- that is, Jesus as an eschatological prophet -- and he rightly sounded the death knell for the liberal quest of the historical Jesus. And Schweitzer was a true prophet, for there has been a resurgence of the liberal quest, particularly in the work of the notorious Jesus Seminar. Just as the quest of 1778-1901 made Jesus into a liberal German Protestant, so now the Jesus Seminar has made him into a liberal North American humanist, fitting this mold in the guise of a non-eshatological cynic-sage divorced from Judaism. This Jesus is, as Schweitzer could have easily predicted, made over in the image of the Jesus Seminarians.

For more up-to-date works which follow Schweitzer in depicting Jesus as an apocalyptic prophet, see E.P. Sanders' "The Historical Figure of Jesus", Paula Fredriksen's "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews", and Dale Allison's "Jesus of Nazareth: Millenarian Prophet". Allison's book, in particular, is worth its weight in gold.

The authors know their stuff, but have no idea how to present it in a creative way.

Sadly, this text, in its 22nd edition, is the standard real estate "salesperson" study manual in the state of Florida.

It is far too long and boring. Much more could be conveyed in fewer pages if the authors either undertook an overhaul or let a creative writer edit the copy.

But hasn't this text already been through 22 editions? Yes, but changes only seem to be made to reflect changes in law and not in updating or freshening the overall presentation.

This oversized book is nearly 500 pages long! In my estimation, more could be said in half the space.

As far as the end of chapter and end of book test questions go, they are too simple. The authors review manual, sold under seperate cover, includes many more questions that more closely reflect the standard of difficulty the state uses in its actual exam.

The authors of this text know they have the monopoly on the "salesperson" text book in the state of Florida. Because of this, do they really have an incentive to make it better? No, not unless they want to challenge themselves to improve it.

If the text were better it would most certainly make the practice of real estate in Florida...better.

I am currently taking the FREC Salesperson I course and this is the book, as you know, we must use. If you are not taking the State Exam, there is no real reason to buy this book unless you just want to educate yourself. Reason being -- the book's goal, like most of it's kind, is for the student/reader to pass the state exam in the end. Hence, there are probably other books out there that convey similar information that aren't booged down with useless details that only exam takers need to know.

I was reading a few reviews about this book. The answer keys to the end of chapter and practice question at the end of the book are available through your instructor. Please note that this book alone will not allow you to take the state exam without a 63 hour Pre-lic. Course. For those who don't understand the material and want the answers to the questions in the book should ask their instructors when they take the required pre-lic. Salesperson FREC I course. As far as the text book, the text book material is excellent!

I have not read this book, and so I'm not sure why there's a review for it here.

I am so grateful I found this book, if nothing else, for Marylyle Rogers' story "Fairy Dreams". It relates to the stories she begins in "Emerald Enchantment" (a collection of short stories) and her's is "The Fairie's Tale" which begins these stories of King Comlan's clan, of the fairy realm Tuatha de Danann. I have since read the continuing stories of this marvelous clan in "Once Upon A Time" "Happily Ever After" and the final story in "Long Ago and Far Away."
I am sure that by the time you are done, you will be so in love with this family of the Tuatha that you will be so happy that you, too, bought this book that began it all.

Now, not to forget the other stories in this book, as they, too, are marvelous. I truly loved the story "Magic and Mahem" and the tiny Irish Sprite, Misty Dawn, sent to protect her mistress in the new land.... well, unbeknown to her people back in her Irish homeland. Misty just wanted some excitement and when Shawna was sent to live in the new land, well, what a perfect chance, but to stowe away in her pocket.

Equally cute is the story "Ever True." Never underestimate the power of your assistant for he/she might just be a fairy!

"Fairies Make Wishes, Too" - what a marvelous story of a young fairy in love with a mortal she watches below her fairie realm. She grieves for the love she'll never know except in his dreams.
When the Queen Fairie forbids young Enya to visit the mortal world she falls victim to the temptations of an offer by an ugly troll who gives her 3 days to win the love of her dream man or loose her life. The catch? She can't tell him that she's his dream lover or that she'll die in 3 days if he doesn't profess his love to her by then. What's a girl to do?

Anyway, I love this book! I hope you will, too.

I have always loved fairy tales and always will. This book was sheer magic to me-especially the tale by Marylyle Rogers. I am her biggest fan and have never been disappointed in any of her stories. All her books are very collectible.
