Review:a powerful, thorough look inside the intricacies of a relationship between two people, their relationship to psychoactive powers within their universe, and nitty gritty details about the nature of politics and philosophy.
Romance and science coalesce symphonically here.
An encyclopedic undertaking that achieves success on a number of fronts, this work shatters delusions and opens your mind. There is really something for everyone here: an inspiring love story and a challenging counter-cultu... Read more

Review:The author describes India as profound and profane. That pretty much sums up her book as well. Maybe Disney Land with the whiff and splat of raw sewerage would be another summation of her india. She thoroughly investigates every single "ism" and geographic location on the sub continent. Calcutta is about the only place she doesn't visit. The book is thoroughly educational from a cultural, religious, and geographic stand point. In reading up on India for a coming visit she is one of the best... Read more

Review:For anybody who likes this book, check out Human Accomplishment by Charles Murray, a bigger (and more scholarly) attempt to categorize four thousand important people in history. I'm sure lots of readers would like to change the order (and/or contents) of Hart's list of 100 influential people, and somehow get offended that Hart ranked so-and-so higher than such-and-such, but this book is just plain fun to read, especially if you are from Scotland (which is disproportionately represented).

Review:Refreshing to have a science and evidence exploration of drug use vs. abuse (all too often we assume these are synonymous).
The personal perspective that Dr. Hart provides insights to the structural societal issues that are often more responsible for outcomes than the actual drug use or abuse.
A very timely discussion for those of us who have lived through the War On Drugs and seen only dire results. More victims from the Anti-Drug War than from the drugs themselves. Read more

Review:If you have loved the stories of James Herriot you will love this book. It is written by his son, Jim Wight. As I learned, Herriot was a pen name. Mr. Wight writes with almost the same beautiful style that his father used. It's a very easy, enjoyable read. Read more

Review:David Carr was a very courageous and talented man. His life could have easily continued to spiral out of his control had he not made significant changes for the sake of his daughters. His book was a page turner. Read more

This book was a good read. I enjoyed Kaitlins attitude& philosophies, as well as her account of what happened at Sandy Hook school (well obviously I didn't "enjoy" that but the first hand account was more informative than removed news commentators) . The only downer was how it affected her later on, I did not see that coming nor the attitud... Read more

Review:Jung's own words on his childhood, musings, and how his philosophy developed. His split from Freud, his interest in Asian spirituality and his concept of the shadow and why it is important for us, in a world where can destroy ourselves and our planet at the press of a button, to recognize that we all have a darker side. "How could this have happened?" is the response of a society in denial. Read more

Review:I loved this story written from the point of view of an English teenager on the beautiful Island of Corfu.He introduces in a funny and endearing way the life of his expat family in strange circustances (before the onslaught of mass tourism) and also makes you love his animals and discovery of birds and insect life. Recommended for the young and adults alike. Read more
