Duncan's Ritual of Freemasonry

Review:An good read for anyone interested in Freemasonry. Inspired me to visit a local lodge after reading it. Also, never lend to a Freemason if you're a Non-Mason because you will not get it back from them, had to buy a second copy. Read more

The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain
The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain

Review:This book is a treasury of relevant scientific theories and findings; none of the wishy washy vague nonsense they teach in other books, this is practical real world advice, that tries to back itself up with science, and is honest about itself. The exercises are all explained, so that the reader knows the how and why, and they work. This is a must have for anyone wanting to improve their art, regardless of the level they may be at.

The Idiot (Penguin Classics)

Review:This edition of 'The Idiot' is really nice, very well designed and bound and for that it should get more than the three stars I gave it, but I have to admit that I'm really not liking the story.

Story Engineering
Story Engineering

Review:As someone fairly left-brained, this book clearly defined a means by which to express my creative streak.
