Review:This is certainly an interesting story and a poignant look at the way mass hysteria can shape a culture. Though it was written during the Communist witch hunt in America and written about Puritan times, it certainly can be applied to modern times. It’s interesting to read through this and see that though the times may change, humans are rather unchangeable. Read more
Review:Every human in America, along with every caregiver and doctor and nurse, every nursing home administrator, and every individual who thinks that no matter the state of the individual whose care they are responsible for, should be required to read this book. What we do to our elderly at the end of their lives is obscene and obviously all about the money, not about their dignity, comfort, wants, needs, or anything else. I wouldn't treat my dog the way most of us treat our terminally ill. And we ... Read more
Review:Not sure why such a small and straight forward book needs a summary. This is about 15 pages long and only a few dollars less than the actual book. Hence my error in ordering 3 of these for my book club not realizing they were the summary and not the actual book. Fine, my mistake. I returned it but was only given half my money back. I realize it was my error but they took $10 out for shipping. I could have shipped it back at my own cost for about 2.00 since they are tiny and weigh nothing. So it ... Read more
Review:Every home schooler or public school should have this resource. Great for teaching and reviewing the core ideas. Whether you use it a curriculum or extra help, these books are great for middle-schoolers and their parents who have probably forgotten a lot since they graduated.
The layout is both fun and engaging as well as draws your eyes to prime ideas and concepts. Read more
Review:Get this book. It's great. I wish I had known about it sooner.
Here's good science information for kids and adults too. At 70 I'm enjoying this clearly presented quality content. See page 287 for Greenhouse Gas explanations and learn more about human caused global warming. See Gregor Memdel's work on pee pods and genetics explained as well as species diversity. Talk about values, the values herein reflect what we learn from science about nature's inherent value to humanity and to itself. Yep,... Read more
Review:Fantastic book. My 9 year old loves math and I've been running him through this book to feed that appetite. Its well written and fun to read (and thats saying something for a math book). I've liked it enough that I may buy my 13 year old a copy as well, to use as a reference.
If I had to identify a weakness I'd say that while it simplifies and summarizes well, it is limited in the number of exercises that it provides a student, which would be helpful in cementing the new techniques and... Read more
Review:Good resource for my 7th graders (boys) who are a little stubborn when it comes to studying / preparing for school assignments.
Well written and has been a nice addition to our study materials Read more
Review:My preschooler loved his new work books. We dove into them the day the arrived. The color and graphics are very clear and the material itself is very good for the price I paid. Will be ordering from this company as his progresses. Read more
Review:I bought several of these since my child likes for me to read them to her. These are basic toddler books. Don't expect the Cat in the House type quality. These are simpler in terms of paper quality but gets the job done. The price was very low which is great since you don't need them for to long. Read more
Review:This book contains so much information, ensuring that it will cover everything but also hindering its ability to serve merely as a review book. It has so much information that, to some extent, it might as well be a world history textbook. Based on the detailed curriculum that the College Board has on its webpage for AP World History (http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/public/courses/teachers_corner/4484.html?excmpid=MTG243-PR-16-cd), this book may contain too much information. Even if you are... Read more
