Review:This book really helped me understand the difficulty of spanning the gap between the black culture and the "privileged white." I am white and failed all these years to see that, while do not consider myself discriminatory toward people of color, for sure I have not had to put up with the downcast looks or being pulled over by a cop because I look like I might "cause trouble" or that "might" break a law.

Review:Just a paperback, but powerfully written. I revisit this book ever so often, so as not to forget the damming effects of slavery on the human psyche. This is a sobering revelation of the cruelity of mankind. Read more

Review:White Like Me takes no prisoners in exposing this country's sordid racial history and its present-day vestiges, which every thinking person should realize are alive and well—thriving, in fact, under this current administration. He takes an admittedly squirm-worthy subject and makes it superbly understandable through his user-friendly, almost "folksy" chronicle of his personal life experiences of white privilege. I couldn't put this book down, which is usually not the case for me with non-fiction... Read more

Review:Extremely worthy effort by Kendi. An important and significant review of the history of racism in America. Page after page of so much that was unknown to me. I have recommended this book to many people. Read more

Review:This is not an easy read, as it is a scholarly work with a lot of charts and tables, and considerable discussion of the statistical techniques and regression analyses that Lott used in arriving at the conclusions presented here. But I would categorize it as a "must-read" for anyone who has a serious interest in the gun control debate, and who is looking for facts - rather than emotion - upon which to form an opinion. Lott's conclusions are compelling and well supported. He also deals, in a st... Read more

Review:Peter Vronsky's fascinating book is jam packed with an abundance of cultural, psychological, sociological and investigative insights into how and why serial killers emerge. The amount of detail and in-depth exploration in this work will certainly carry a reader into the dark unimaginable inner realm of human evil. And there in an abundance of case histories (some notorious, others less so, but still unimaginably horrific and disturbing) from which Vronsky cites. However, before he journeys into ... Read more

Review:Good personality analysis but little suspense buildup. The long list of victims made it hard to keep track of who's who. Book provides food for thought for potential "Bundy killing-type victims"...POS Read more

Review:Though a little slow going do to too much repetition, it is filled with a tremendous amount of well documented information. With just the right amount of human feeling it allows the reader to understand the enormity of this tragedy. Read more

Review:When I bought the book I expected some new stories but it turned out to be recycled content, just the manuscripts of previous Lore podcast episodes. Don't get me wrong, I'm in love with all things Lore but I was a little disappointed. That's why it's getting 4 stars instead of 5 Read more

Review:This is a great, hilarious, but also helpful book. Being a therapist myself, I found his approach particularly awesome. He uses aspects of CBT and DBT to get his message out about "kicking anxiety's ass" and dealing with having a "douchebag brain." I loved his "talking to a friend " language. I highly recommend this book for people dealing with anxiety but also depression, as well as fellow therapists. Quite enjoyed it! Read more
