This tape is a great relaxer after a stressful day
at work.

This cassette was produced by a board certified music therapist, Sr. Jean Anthony Gileno, Ph.D. The piano runs on this tape were composed to facilitate relaxation as well to elicit an awareness of our unique spirituality and purpose in the universe. (See Doves of Peace.)

I was given this book by a Friend when my husband died suddenly and unexpectantly. I gained great comfort and peace from this little book and I then sent it to a friend just recently who had also lost her husband. I highly recommend this book for the comfort it gives.

When my daughter was killed I was inundated with inspirational, uplifting books. I was in great pain, not ready to be uplifted. Someone who knew me well gave me this one.

It is full of poetry & prose about how I was really feeling, not how I SHOULD be feeling. It made me cry a lot, which was the best thing in the world to be doing in the beginning. I was reminded over & over again by characters from the Bible, from the classics, from every walk of life, that I was not the first person to feel this way. It reassured me that I was in stellar company, King David to C.S. Lewis, & I too would recover. I carried it with me for more than a year. Better than a live-in "shrink."

It's rare that I encounter a book in English that I need to read with a dictionary handy. Anthony Burgess' autobiography is the first book which has forced this in quite a while. The life itself was rather fascinating, covering primarily that portion of Burgess' life before he became a writer. This is the point in a writer's life which is interesting. After they settle into the task of actually writing, their lives tend to become dull as dirt.

Anthony Burgess, the great linguistic writer of the 20th century, has succeeded in publishing something quite out of the ordinary-- he has written an autobiography actually worth reading. With most autobiographies, the authors tend to center on themselves, writing with the condescending bathos that only exists when one is talking of oneself. Burgess, on the other, hand, establishes his literary hubris early on, yet it never becomes condescending nor immitigably self-centered. He writes as one who realises both his genius as well as his shortcomings. The former he shows in his erodite vocabulary, his obscure puns, and his awe-inspiring knowledge of etymology; the latter is shown in his failure in school, his impersonal and inadequate personality, his extreme shortcomings as a husband, and his extessentialist-like apathy regarding death.

What ultimately sets him apart from other autobiographers, as mentioned earlier, is that he seems to center on others moreso than himself; in "Little Wilson and Big God, the tumultuous 20th century is viewed through a myriad of reference frames, all of which are given equal importance (even those, strangely enough, that would be seen to disagree with his opines).

Being a Burgess novel, one can expect to see highly established vocabulary; he frequently makes references to and puns in foreign languages, from Anglo-Saxon to ancient Gaelic. In one case, he tells of translating popular song into Latin. However, as opposed to his Clockwork Orange, he does not speak in some imagined colloquial dialect, and his excellent points are therefore not lost to the audience.

If someone is looking for an autobiography that can actually offer insight into the mind of a genius, look no further than this gem of a work.

This review is for the book: Living Heart Diet
by Dr. William Debakey, et al.

This is an excellent book for those who have had heart problems and for those who do not want to develop heart problems. Poor diet (high fat/cholesterol) is one of the main risk factors for heart disease -- excess cholesterol lays a foundation of plaque in your arteries that can eventually cause heart attacks and/or necessitate heart surgery. This book was developed to help us all eat right and help avoide disease. This book contains recipes, education about heart disease, and nutrition and sodium tables for most of the foods you eat. This is an excellent resource! Use it in good health!

I'm a diabetic and recently had a quadruple bypass. After being introduced to this book, I devoured it and now live it.

Simply the best work available on Indian Removal, in my opinion. It is highly regarded among academic historians. Wallace did a tremendous job of writing clearly and making the plight of the Indians understandable to anyone. It is short, it is lucid, it is interesting reading. Plus, it is balanced. This is not a work that treats Indians as childlike, passive victims, but it does convey the injustice and unnecessary hardships to which they were subjected. It also does not portray the government and non-Indian Americans simply as aggressors. It's an important work for understanding what happened to the tribes. It won't take a lot of your time, so do yourself a favor and read it.

An Indian activist or just an amature historian, everyone should read this book. Though short, it gives an excellent narrative of the removal of Indians and their trama from the East by the American government. This book is amazingly well written and is for both students (like myself who read it in a class) or for casual readers. Please concider this book to find out more about the emerging stories of what really happened to Native Americans.

This is by far the best book to have for a Lotus Seven through Type Four and the Caterham. It is very through and well written. It covers the history of the Seven. It also give you very complete mechanical description of the different facets of the car. Everyone that has a Seven should own this book. It is out of print so get it where you can. You won't be disappointed. Enjoy your Seven!

Written by a Lotus insider, this is a premium reference for all with an interest in the legendary 'Seven'.
Whether for owner, restorer, intending buyer, dreamer or (purists may suppress a shudder here) replica builder, the comprehensive text and informative illustrations presented by Mr. Weale are a practical guide, a significant historical reference, and a thoroughly inspiring read.

The Lotus Seven was a unique concept. Starkly functional, but with style; designed by Colin Chapman to provide an affordable, high performance sports car that could be assembled, maintained and raced competitively by an enthusiastic amateur.
The outstanding success of his radical approach to automotive engineering and design is reflected in the iconic status of this over-forty-year-old design that is still in production by Caterham Cars. (and being copied in backyard sheds all over the world, such is its' universal appeal.)

This book will be invaluable to owners who like to ensure their treasured Seven receives the maintenance a classic deserves, restorers seeking original specification or buyers researching covenance. The historical, technical and developmental detail contained in these pages will provide inspiration and priceless insight on components, materials and construction techniques for (I must plead guilty) imitators of Mr. Chapmans' magnificent design.
A highly recommended addition to your library.
(I must buy another copy for guests, my current one is much used and victim of the oily hand.)

This was a very easy read and one that I found I didn't want to stop reading. I am hoping that Mr. Asalone will be writing more books along these same lines. I think many people can and will get inspired by much of what is written.

"LOVE LETTERS FROM GOD has the ability to heal those in need and inspire those who are searching for a way"

No other book but Pippi Longstocking has been as much fun to read out loud to my daughter. The prose is simple yet carefully chosen to roll off the tongue easily. A perfect bed-time story length, the tales captured my 7-yr-old's imagination so thoroughly that she now goes to bed with her nightgown inside out and asked to sprinkle dill weed in the corners. (Read the book, and you'll know what I mean.) As an adult, I enjoy the humor and appreciate the gentle lesson or two. Now, please excuse me--I have to go set a bowl of cream outside the back door...

my kids were entranced by these tales of those feisty spriggans and knackers. These are the wonderful stories to read to grandchildren , or have them read to you, about the really Olden Days when there was magic all over the world! The pictures are great. I wish we could have a spriggan on a T-shirt!

I have to confess that I don't own the audiotape, but I've read the book several times and think it's one of the best mystery novels ever written. It definitely, but definitely does not deserve to be out of print! Humorous mysteries are often not well plotted, but this is an exception; it's wickedly funny and ironic, yet it's also cunningly structured, with a story full of twists and turns that lead to a truly satisfying surprise ending. The character of Dr. Bickleigh, the hapless protagonist, is truly a hoot, and the supporting cast is fabulously drawn as well. Don't miss this one.

High quality meets high readablity! I wish everything I've read could meet such high standards of full character development, and intriguing, original, yet beliveable plot. This book is definately deserving of precious leisure reading time.

My brother-in-law handed me this book one day and said it was worth reading. I had no idea who Colin Fletcher was or what the book was about. I learned a lot about Colin Fletcher, the guru of walking, but even more about a remarkable man who's life would have passed unnoticed had Mr. Fletcher not stumbled on a very remote cave south of Las Vegas Nevada in the late 1960s. This man had come to live in the cave for part of a year and Mr. Fletcher decided to find out who and why a person would choose to live there. Through tough detective work the author develops some leads about when the habitation of the cave occurred and what sort of person lived there. The man in question turns out to be a very colorful prospector and through amazing luck and perseverance Fletcher uncovers his life story. He finds this man to be much like himself. Mr. Fletcher portrays him as both saint and sinner at times, but always makes him human. Quite a good read.

In my opinion, this is one of the more fascinating of Colin Fletcher's very enjoyable writings. While pursuing an on-going project of walking the length of the Colorado River, Fletcher discovered a lonely cave in Nevada with evidence that a remarkable individual had called it home sometime in the early part of the century. Fletcher wondered who this could have been, and what had led him to this very out-of-the-way location (as Colin Fletcher himself had been led there). Years of research and discovery, aided by a not inconsequential amount of dumb luck, led Fletcher to the most probable identity of the cave dweller, and he also learned much about American history along the way. This book is a real-life mystery; it is a biography of "Chuckawalla Bill" Simmons and of Colin Fletcher himself; and like all of Colin Fletcher's books, it is also a work of philosopy. Not surprisingly, the "Man From the Cave" proves to be a man very much like Colin Fletcher himself.
