Review:Used this textbook for an introductory Sociology class. The author did a wonderful job explaining complex concepts and using relevant and up to date examples. I read the entire book, and had no desire to skip any chapters! Read more

Review:One of the most important books to be published in recent memory. Jung's seminal oeuvre is not only important as a psychology book and specifically the study of the "Archetypes"; it is a critical study in the history of Western scholarship in general.

Review:Mr. Marshall's history of Crazy Horse and the upheavals in the Lakota culture make for a spell-binding book. It is very interesting to view history from a Lakota perspective, as opposed to the white-written history books many of us were force-fed in school. The people who lived on the plains in the 1800's were not the "savage and untamed" monsters depicted in many history books, just as the white forefathers (Washington, Jefferson, etc.) were not the "holy saints" they were portrayed as being.
