Collected Works of Samuel Alexander
Published in Hardcover by Thoemmes Pr (July, 2000)
Author: Samuel Alexander
Amazon base price: $560.00
Average review score:

Versatile methodologist
This review is about Alexander's Space, Time, and Deity, but this book isn't available on Amazon as a separate title, so I thought I would review it here in the section for his collected works.

The main thing I wanted to say is that I learned a lot about the craft of doing philosophy from Alexander. His method is interesting. He moves backward and forward between deduction, induction, historical argument, and scientific and mathematical reasoning without any sense of discontinuity in order to explain and support his proposals.

In other words, he will use whatever seems appropriate and whatever works. I liked this approach, regardless of whether I would subscribe to any of his metaphysical or epistemological ideas. He is an interesting and worthwhile philosopher if only for that.

Good general reference for nuclear reactor design.
This is a good general reference work regarding nuclear reactor engineering and design, aimed mainly at undergrad. and graduate students in nuclear engineering but also useful to engineerings and physical engineers working with extant reactors. The authors and editors do a good job of covering advances in systems control and related areas up to the 1994 publication of this edition.

Average review score:

Pure propaganda
This is pure propaganda written by the husband of S. A. Mud's grandaughter. Mudd, a slave owning, beating,and shooting Confederate mail agent is portrayed as an honost Union man. A man who had met J. W. Booth 3 times before and plotted with him is said to be an innocent bystander. This is pure lies.

Not Propaganda
Yes, Mudd may have been a slave owner, but that night of the assassination, he was purley doing his job! I am a Mudd...I believe he was completely innocent. Maybe not of slave owning, but of the helping of teh assassination.
