A Craftsman's Guide to Wood Technology - Understanding Wood
A Craftsman's Guide to Wood Technology - Understanding Wood

Review:Simply put, "Understanding Wood" is the only truly comprehensive, scientific treatment of the properties and behavior of wood, specifically written with the craftsman in mind, by the absolute. As professor of wood technology at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst since 1962, Bruce Hoadley is a (and perhaps THE) leading expert on the science of wood. Presented in a slightly simplified scientific manner, which non-scientist craftsmen can easily understand, Hoadley's book provides almost eve... Read more

Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Technology
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Technology

Review:While Mr. Whitman and associates may be experts in the HVAC field, they obviously are not effective textbook authors for a beginning HVAC course. The book is cumbersome, somewhat confusing, and very hard to follow. The end of chapter questions are more than difficult to answer based on the information given in the chapter. Little emphasis is put on "important" points and ideas. In some cases, throughout the book, a subject is mentioned with little or no detail follow-up, and in other instanc... Read more

The Complete Do-it-Yourself Manual Newly Updated
The Complete Do-it-Yourself Manual Newly Updated

Review:Impressive new version of a do it yourself manual. This was given to a couple buying their first house so I did not open it myself. Somehow playing with someone's gift before you give it to them seems tacky. I believe it offers a free version online too with this purchase. So if you don't want to lug around the book, I guess you can see the page form a smartphone?
I'd say it is worth it. For myself, when I buy a couple a book like this, I get older versions also of the reader's digest do it ... Read more

How to Make Love Like a Porn Star - A Cautionary Tale
How to Make Love Like a Porn Star - A Cautionary Tale

Review:Let me preface this review by stating that we have much bigger problems in this country than dirty books and pictures, such as our totally open southern border, but this book poses a lot of troubling questions about the porn industry and it's superstar performers, not to mention the contract performers who get chewed up and spit out on a fairly quick basis.

It is easy to see how things spiralled downward for Jenna Jameson, lose a mother in your early years, have a totally detached father,... Read more

Easy DIY Projects to Add a Warm and Rustic Feel to Any Room

Review:Expensive book for what you get. The people pictures don't even look happy! Very "staged" I might pay five or six dollars for this book, but not more. This may be like a "model home, but much of it is not practical. Seems so strange to buy something new just to make it look old, but maybe that's just me. Go to some garage sales in the country and find the real thing, because your time is valuable and the real stuff always has a story behind it! Read more
