Review:The rating: this book talks to my own self telling stories; it pacifies my soul and behaviors. It makes me a better person not only to others but mainly to my own self.

I am becoming a patience person and this book helped me to see that "I AM OK" which makes me very happy inside out.

I am recommending this book as well as the other books that Don Miguel Ruiz wrote. Read more

Review:This is a book that is not for everyone. This is as true as the fact that Tim Grover's teachings and program are not for every athlete. However, if you are now doing well but want to raise your game or business to another level, you cannot lose reading this book. I recently finished the book and have started reading it again. It is all about getting yourself into a zone of focus and determination to be the best you can be. If you are doing well but know that you have room to improve and grow, Ti... Read more

Review:After reading the information about this book , I believed that it was aimed at tweens. But as a 55 year old woman I did not want to stop reading Fire Mage. Fire Mage truly held my interest and I hated when I came to the end of the book. I work with 10 to 12 year old children and they all would enjoy this book. It is well written and makes you want more. The details are clear and the charters are likeable and the book is enteraining. At times as I read Fire Mage I felt that I could see and smell... Read more

Review:Authenticity is becoming scarcer in American society. Not so within the pages of this book. I've been to and worked along the Arizona border where the author spent part of his Border Patrol time. I've seen and lived some of what he did--as a civilian by foot, horseback, and automobile--from the mid-1970s, up to today. So, I could not be tricked by a manufactured narrative. It's more than a read, it's an experience. But what kind is up to the reader. Read more

Review:Taleb eplores of one of the least understood forces in all of our lives; mistaking luck for skill.

Here is a person with a single, but large topic, who spent his life exploring randomness vertically and horizontally, maturing it, getting into its most interesting wrinkles. The book is a feast to read and re-read. I laughed a lot while reading the book and had to think even more about Taleb's deep understanding of the philosophy of probability. He's amazingly articulated so you can see his... Read more

Review:You are high status and no one, including yourself, can tell you otherwise. Although, I’m not 100% onboard with everything in the book, the author makes it well-known that you don’t have to be. Find the elements that work for you and repeat them! Read more

Review:Very interesting history of the U. S. plans to survive the Cold War, and its successors. Fascinating to read about the reactions of our government to various real and imaginary threats. Well worth the time to read. Read more

Review:Thomas Cahill's "Sailing the Wine-Dark Sea: Why the Greeks Matter" is another in his series of books entitled "The Hinges of History" in which he focuses on an historical civilization and tries to show their impact and relevance on the modern Western world, all written for a general audience. This is a very shallow and unenlightening survey of Greek culture, tinged with some annoyances of Cahill's writing.

Cahill's doesn't try to deliver a general history of Ancient Greece. His discussi... Read more

Review:I love Patricia Cornwell and have read many of her books. I read the previous book she did on this topic and found that one quite interesting. Perhaps because I had read the first book (the name escapes me), I just didn't get the point of this one. While it did provide some additional detail as to why She feels as though she has identified the Ripper, it just didn't seem enough for another entire book. I feel as though the book was written as a message to her critics, as if she was defending... Read more

Review:Quantum Mechanics introduced and explained in layman's terms. Still an abstract concept to understand, but great insight to the research being done and that this left to do. Reads reasonably fast given the nature of the content. Read more
