This new picture book by Paul Brett Johnson features the same characters as THE COW THAT WOULDN'T COME DOWN. This time, it's Magnolia, the goose, who is causing problems for Miss Rosemary. Miss Rosemary quickly figures out that Magnolia's strange behavior is due to a frustrated mothering instinct. Miss Rosemary then sets out in her own inimical fashion to solve the problem. Then ending is both sweet and hilarious. The illustrations (especially the facial expressions of the animals) add dimension to the story. This book is already on its way to becoming another old favorite at our house.

This book is an extremely extensive coverage of Gothic Architecture throughout Europe. The quality and coverage of the work is unsurpassed. However, it only covers the architectural elements of Gothic Cathedrals and does not cover aspects such as stained glass windows, wood carvings and sculptural art within Gothic Cathedrals. If you are looking for a general work on various aspects of Gothic Art, this is not it.

There's much more to the type of Frederic Goudy than Goudy Oldstyle, and you'd be suprised at some of the familiar typefaces that came from his hand. He created over 100 types, including what is now known as Berkely and Copperplate. Most designers are lucky if ONE of their types finds its way into common use. Goudy has at least ten. This is a facsimile of a volume that appeared in Goudy's lifetime. My only complaint is that I wish it had been reproduced on letterpress -- printed pages produced by modern means do not carry the same authority, or produce the characteristic relief of the old printing methods. Nonetheless, we are fortunate to have it available.

Your body was designed to eat unprocessed "live foods". The trick is to make them taste good. This book is jammed with 1,000 healthy recipes your family will love. Gourmet Health Recipes is more than a cookbook; it is a guide to a new healthy lifestyle.

Do not be confused by the low price on this book. Health Science prints in such large quantities, they can afford to keep their prices low. This is a very popular book. Nineteenth edition, now enlarged and revised.

Paul Bragg started the health food movement over eighty-eight years ago. His Daughter, the Amazing Patricia Bragg, is accelerating their tradition of promoting the healthy lifestyle. She publishes a number of health-nutrition books and markets her own brand of apple cider vinegar, olive oil and aminos. See her picture on the bottles.

I have known Health Science and Patricia Bragg and have followed her healthy lifestyle program for over 20 years.

As the author of 113 books (including revisions and foreign-language editions) and over 500 magazine articles, I highly recommend Health Science books to anyone not tired of living. DanPoynter@ParaPublishing.com.

I am saddened to see both that this fascinating little book has gone out of print and that it has been equally ignored by the theological community. Heinz W. Cassirer was the son of one of the most famous Kantian scholars of the 20th century, Ernst Cassirer. Like his father, he was for many decades a dedicated Kantian in his moral philosophy. Briefly, this entailed a belief about the possibility of fulfilling the demands of the moral law. Kant believed that the moral law placed an inescapable demand on every individual to fulfill its demands, and he further believed that the "ought" of the moral law logically meant that we "could" keep its demands. In other words, every individual is essentially capacitated to be a moral individual. Kant also felt that it was undeniable that none of us actually was able to keep the demands of the moral law because of our sensual nature. But since the demands of the moral law were inescapable, he believed that the demands of the moral law entailed human immortality, that in an afterlife where we would no longer be enthralled to a sensual nature--i.e., a body--we would be able to fully keep the laws demands. Still, the emphasis is on each individual's innate capacity to fulfill the laws demands, whether in this life or in an afterlife.

In middle age, however, Cassirer began to read the New Testament for the first time. In it, he was fascinated by a different account of the moral capacity of human nature. Unlike Kant, St. Paul was struck by the innate incapacity of human beings to do not merely what the moral law demanded, but what they wanted themselves to do. Gradually, and against his own intellectual inclinations, Cassirer came to feel that Paul, and not Kant, provided the more accurate understanding of human nature. This, of course, opens up the possibility greatly at odds with the overly rationalized nonsectarian religion one finds in Kant. In other words, it drives one more to a religion that sees the need for a redeemer as much as a legislator, Paul's own Christian faith.

Although Cassirer doesn't seem to be aware to be especially aware of his work, his book points very much in the direction of Kierkegaard's work, in particular PHILOSOPHICAL FRAGMENTS and THE SICKNESS UNTO DEATH. In both books Kierkegaard displays the logic of Christianity, in which people who are incapable of meeting the demands of the moral law are brought into contact with a redeemer who is the only remedy. I would have loved to see Cassirer explore this, but he doesn't seem to be aware of the sharp parallels to his own reading of Kant and St. Paul.

This book is really good for children who learn the basic English Grammar. It's easy to follow and easy to understand. The illustration is good and interesting, too. I recommend this book for those who wants to learn basic English. I like this book very much, because I learn a lot from this book, too.

This is one of the all time best chess books, as Keres, many times a Candidate for the World's Championship, decided to annotate his best games deeply.

The original is now out of print, but the games and notes have been reprinted with corrections and additions by British GM John Nunn.

Put this one on your "must have" list.

Psychologists, psychiatrists, and physicians in Europe have used Graphology and Graphotherapy to identify psychological limitations for over 50 years. Yet, when this book was first published in 1966, the effectiveness of these proven tools was virtually unrecognized by health care professionals in the United States. Paul de Sainte Colombe introduced to the United States Graphotherapy, via this book- with his clear explanation of how to make helpful use of the two way circuit between the writing hand and the subconscious mind.

This book explains how to identify personality traits that are revealed in an individual's handwriting, and how particular traits can be modified through specific changes in the handwriting strokes that express them. Through the use of graphotherapy positive attributes such as power of concentration, self-confidence, generosity can be developed and strengthened and negative tendencies such as indecisiveness, dishonsty and hostility can be corrected or diminished.

Paul de Sainte Colombe, one of the founders of Graphotherapy (tested at the Sorbonne from 1929-1931) based this guidebook on his 40 years of study in Psychology and Graphology coupled with long, practical experience.

Rose Toomey, a student-now practicing Graphologist/Graphotherapist, has received approval of the Sainte Colombe trust to continue publishing their work.
