Review:Aside from a few salacious tidbits about Hillary's foul mouth and Bill's temper, as well as their attitudes towards African Americans and Jews, there's not a lot of new info here.
Half personal rant, half National Enquirer.
See Clinton Cash for more relevant material. Read more
Review:I originally purchased this book because it was such a "twist" on the Three Little Pigs and was curious about it. It became one of my family's favorites because it's so different. Enjoyable reading and a good ending.The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig (Pop Up Books) Read more
Review:As someone who followed John Kasich's campaign from the very start and voted for him in The North Carolina GOP Primary, I was anxious to pick up this book. Trust me when I say that it doesn't disappoint. Kasich's optimism and hope for America shine through each page, at a time when America's path looks full of doom and gloom, Kasich provides ample reason for Americans to remain optimistic. Read more
Review:The writing is very concise and easy to follow. There are a lot of facts and names but it only adds to the reading and does not hinder the progress. This is really a story about love and hardship to win a goal that all should be able to enjoy. It is enlightening and terrifying at the same time. Read more
Review:I have found this meditation book to be extremely refreshing. It always seems to be in line with what I am going through. I especially love that it has a table of contents in the beginning so I can just look up what it is that I am struggling with and flip right to it. The messages are unbelievably accurate. Louise Hay has a profound way of speaking into the lives of others. I work at a halfway house for chemically dependent women who struggle with various life issues on a daily basis. I have ma...

Review:I saved a lot of $ by purchasing this older edition rather than the required text for my class. So far everything has been fine as far as material matching up and key concepts. Completely worth it for me and I would recommend. Read more
Review:I wish I could convince everyone who avoids older literature to read Candide. This book is hilarious, dark, bitter, snide, and beautiful. If you love Vonnegut novels, you will likely enjoy Candide. The satire from yesteryear is just as applicable to the personal and political interactions of mankind today. Read more
Review:While there is a great deal of philosophical thought covered in relatively short order (500 pages in print version), the device of question and answer between the teacher and student is tedious. The puzzles in the interludes between pedagogy lead to a mind-boggling conclusion. My sympathy to the young narrator Sophie and her guide to the world of thought, Alberto, who finally melt away like the Cheshire Cat. Be hopeful and remember, "The only thing we require to be good philosophers is the facu... Read more
Review:This is a great book about modern society and men. Even through it was written nearly 20 years ago, it is still completely applicable, if not more so. Written in a textual analysis of an ancient story, the author weaves current observations about our society into a discussion of how human societies evolved over thousands of years. This is a great book if you have a young boy, or work with a Boy Scout Troop or school. Read more
Review:Excitedly I enter these words to stress the overwhelming gnosis that poors through the veil of the onlooker as one treads down the road to new and different thesis. It is stunning to note that what seems to appear so real to some can so easily be changed by the appearance of another perspective. Jesus being married and having a bloodline no way defies any real traditional belief of what is so-called Christianity, However so many are so very misled in that what they believe the Bible is teach...
