Review:This book was actually really interesting and informative. If you are interested in learning how our country has been taken over by a shadow government then not only do you need to read this book, but I also recommend you check out David Icke and read his stuff. Also next time your online type in [...] and browse around to learn more about this conspiracy. This book covers a wide range of topics ranging from FEMA camps, corrupt healthcare/Big Pharma, the bailouts,microchips, police state/marshal... Read more
Review:To bad the book is so true of whats happening to America. Does any one even care that America is becoming a Communist Nation?
Or is all that matters any more that YOU know what time the race is on and do I have some beer? Read more
Review:Currently the top negative review states, "She start [sic] off as if her problems are the problems of all women."
As a reminder to this critic, the book is titled "Sex Object: A MEMOIR." This is one woman's life, although I can imagine a commonality to the very troubling issues discussed herein; I am a man, so will only ever know of most such issues through secondhand accounts. As at least half of my friends and colleagues are women, this book is not so eye-opening and confrontational to me a... Read more
Review:Just finished this book. As a Black woman, I found the subject matter fairly interesting, but the writing style was a little too wordy for me. Also, a lot of the material was not funny where the author's intent was clearly meant to convey funny. Being much older than the author, I found that many of her references in this book were people/things I could relate too. But overall a decent read. Read more
Review:I read this book after hearing about it in an online debate. I was curious and decided to give it a try. This book is like a hand grenade in a feminist collective. Never have i heard a woman tell the truth about her own gender before.
What i found reading this book was that every couple of pages or so i would have to stop and think and inevitably i would realise that the manipulative behaviour she was describing matched my own experiance with women. It's like David Attenborough had done a fei... Read more
Review:Simplified, Jack Donovan's book can be distilled down to two major points. The first half of the book explores the difference between being a good man and being good at being a man. When the circle of civilization is small, it is more important to be good at being a man and it is from these origins that manhood--in its most essential form--is derived. The author identifies four virtues that have defined masculinity and helped human civilization survive from its beginnings. Yes, he essentializes ... Read more
Review:Great book!
Bad rip off....Recently I went to my local library for this book. I have a paper due in two weeks on the book, so I was a bit pressed to get this home.The library has the "premiere edition" but it had someone's underlining throughout,bothered by this-- I went to Amazon and bought my own version.I thought this one is worth having until....I noticed a few oddities. First the book is a bit wider, the pages are crispy white, not the tinged off white the library book had. The maps, and... Read more
Review:I can't say anything new about a book this famous, so I will just give my personal opinion about why and how to read it. Why: because it is a timeless description of how American democracy works, in both theory and practice. As to how to read it, I have this book sitting next to the Bible on my bedside bookshelf, and I read in the same way. I have been reading Democracy in America in a piecemeal way over several decades, in small installments, with time in between to think and ponder and questio... Read more
Review:I bought this book for a college class. As possible, definitely shop Amazon books to gain the best value. Campus bookstores can be expensive! I received this book promptly and it was in great condition (as listed). The subject matter was excellent! The content provides research outcomes, scenarios, and recommendations for tackling difficult conversations on most any level (personal & business). I approve the book & the seller. Read more
Review:When I started reading this book it was at the end of a long hard day after work, one of those days where I am blessed to have a job, but when I also wonder if what I'm doing is worth some of the not so blessed drama I go through. I work at a non-profit agency where its my job to assist people on public assistance find gainful employment, so in my position I hear all kinds of tales of woe and there are times (more than not) lately when I find myself becoming desensitized to the plights of my fel...
