Review:I like the way she writes - very honestly and straightforward. Her story is familiar to me and I felt comfortable reading her words. There is no lecture, no judgement. There is only a good description of the choices we face and why we thought (or think) that booze can help us through them. Read more

Review:Amazon sells Trump brand shoes, clothing, and home furnishings. They have also yet to publicly condemn Trump’s Muslim Immigration Ban, instead releasing a politically-neutral message to employees offering “contingency plans” for those who stranded by the ban. Read more

Review:Read just the prologue and your views on racism, but also on other messages of power and exclusion, will change forever.
But don't stop there. Reading year by year, idea by idea, voice by voice development of racism is more chilling than learning about the history of slavery and Jim Crow in high school history. The racism of both the supporters of slavery who spouted segregation but also of the abolitionists who spouted the more subtle racism of assimilation is examined in detail. You realize... Read more

Review:Really good book on stereotypes and the way that social constructions are built in society that shape  people's perspectives of one. This book really conveys the idea that the class and area in which one is born into really does take play in their economic status when they're older of their lifestyle. had to read for a sociology class and really enjoyed it.

Review:This is on my required reading list for my kids ... but not until High School. This story is tough, heart-wrenching, heart-changing and most importantly, true. I recommend it to everyone - especially those who think they are too tough, or dirty for God. Read more

Review:On her second night of college, Aspen Matis - a girl so sheltered that her mother literally dressed her every day of her life - was raped by a boy she had just met. Because she invited him to "spend the night" after the rape (the sort of confused reaction that is more understood now than it was then), the college didn't acknowledge the rape. Not only did they dismiss her claim, but they even moved her rapist into the dorm with her, forcing her to abscond to living in a hotel room that ended up... Read more

Review:In "Beyond Civilization" Daniel Quinn has yet again demonstrated his mastery of timely wordcraft. Quinn writes directly to the guilt-ridden, urban middle-class who sense something is dreadfully wrong with their lives, but are confounded by their intuitions. Once again, Quinn restates his ideas concerning the source of our contemporary cultural woes - the Agricultural Revolution which initiated a break from scavenging, gathering, hunting and Paleolothic tribal values. All this makes for ... Read more

Review:Some books make us laugh, cry, scream or jump with joy. Nothing to Tell did something greater. Not often do we find a book that touches a part of our souls. I grew up in Montana on a cattle ranch, and this book took me back to being six years old, running through alfalfa fields, climbing trees, making apple cider, and eating strawberries and carrots right out of my grandparent's garden. This type of freedom is slowly being lost in history. It was bitter sweet being taken back to those memories. ... Read more
