Review:A book where the quality of the leather binding shows AND the price was very reasonable - under $30 !!!
The paper is high quality as well and has a sewn in ribbon to use as a book mark. Delivery was quite fast and was packed very well. I've read half of the book which has close to 700 pages !! Well written, and a pleasure to read and learn from. I will certainly be ordering more leather bound books in the very near. Can't miss !!!! Read more
Review:I was disappointed to find this book so repetitive in nature. There are about 10 core interventions presented, but very little that feels new, or particularly tailored to each concern addressed. I was also irritated by a noticeable number of typos, grammar and punctuation errors present in the text, the worksheets and the diagrams/illustrations.
Finally, I was very surprised to find extensive references to Christian faith throughout the book. If this works for you and your clients, great; if ... Read more
Review:I really like the way this workbook is put together. So far I have only gone thorough part of the book, but it is really helping me manage my anxiety and giving me a lot of different skills that I can use in my daily life. I will write a full review after I finish working my way through the workbook. Read more
Review:This story was exceptional, as I've come to expect from Tracie Peterson. The way she is able to twist several story lines into one major theme keeps the reader fully engaged. It's hard to put her books down, which is the types of stories I like best. Read more
Review:My early impression is that the book is thorough, well researched and presents a very plausible hypothesis, but it seems a bit disjointed in that there could be clearer distinction between hard evidence and anecdotes. I may have a more detailed comment after further study Read more
Review:Great workbook to work through problems and stresses in your life. It's very helpful to write things down, it makes you delve into your true feelings and focus on it to understand. The more you understand your own issues, the more you can begin to make changes and heal. Read more

Review:This book is wonderful but sad and horrific concerning the things that have happened to african american women. The book is detailed so you must be able to read about gang rape, etc. If these issues are a trigger for you then reading this book is not a good idea. Certain parts made me cringe, and I had to stop reading at certain parts. With all of that said, it is a great read because it gives you another point of view of Rosa Parks and not just the Bus Boycott. She accomplished so much more ... Read more
Review:I found out about this book by watching Ladies Day on the Colbert Report TV show. Several things got my attention about the book. The author, Ariel Levy, seems about my age so I figured our world views would be similar. I'd been watching the reality TV show, Flavor of Love season two on VH1. The jaw dropping behavior of the contestants both appalled me and made me feel like an old fogey. For instance, there was a scene when the women decided to have a stripper pole dance contest. Most of t... Read more
