25th anniversary edition (A Merloyd Lawrence Book)
25th anniversary edition (A Merloyd Lawrence Book)

Review:This book is more for the psychiatric professional and not for a person who is trying to become more mindful. The first half of the book focused on mindlessness. The second half of the book focused on experiments done with various groups of people and how those experiments helped those people become more mindful. Read more

a Pioneering Oncologist Reveals Why the War on Cancer Is Winnable--and How We Can Get There

Review:A serious and in-depth review, from a primary contributor, about the difficult quest searching for cancer cures while the mighty federal government hinders almost everything science comes up with. Spreading the word about this book may cause the bureaucrats to loosen up a little.When, as is often the case, death is looking somebody in the face in the short future it makes little sense to prohibit well-founded experimentation, freely chosen, as an alternative to just marking off days on a calenda...

Extraordinary Journeys into the Human Brain - Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole
Extraordinary Journeys into the Human Brain - Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole

Review:XXXXX

Bright Children Who Talk Late - The Einstein Syndrome

Review:I found the subject of late talking children very interesting and intriging. I have a 21 month old grandson who has not begun to talk at all....not even Mama, DaDa, Bye Bye. He constantly babbles. He has been checked for hearing as well as an overall analysis of his motor skills, social interests, etc., and has come out with an above average rate.

100 Things Every Designer Needs to Know About People (Voices That Matter)

Review:This is a really interesting book and it opened my eyes to a lot of new ideas that I hadn't really considered before.
It's of those sort of books you pick up now and again when you have 10 mins here and there or great on a long plane ride when you actually want to learn something rather than just get lost in fiction. Good read. Read more

Are You My Mother?: A Comic Drama
Are You My Mother?: A Comic Drama

Review:Hard "story" to follow! Friends say it's not the format but the storyline itself, with all it's various angles. I'm on the fence... but not liking either, honestly. I felt like it was a distracted, disjunctive experience. Read more
