A great study in more ways than one
This study has really blessed me - and convicted me. It hit me right where I needed it. The study involves about 20 minutes of work daily, and it's really fun. The book guides you through a program of reading, note taking, marking the text, memorization, and other tasks that result in a deep and personal knowledge of God's will. I've heard about the "observation, interpretation, and application" inductive approach since becoming a Christian and this book has proved how valuable it really is.

Right off the bat this study on 1 Thessalonians showed me how God is able to work through people who wholeheartedly turn to Him and become obedient. If you want to learn methods of digging deep into your Bible while being fed at the same time, this book is for you.

A great book for the non-statistically minded
I found this book greatly supportive to a non-statistically minded person such as myself. The authors realise that not everyone feels comfortable with doing statistics and, indeed, actually dread it. Since I need to do a Statistics for Psychology course to continue in Psychology it has been a relief that the main text used has been written to aid the statistically impaired. It is fulled with many mind-easing comments etc. and, with the combination of this book and my lecturer at the University of Canterbury, I am actually learning to enjoy something I never thought I would enjoy. A big thank you to Arthur and Elaine Aron. You have helped me continue my studies in the field I wish to remain in - Psychology.


Stereoscopic Drawing: A Theory of 3-D Vision and its application to Stereoscopic Drawing

A delightful reference for 3D drawing
For anyone amazed by the concept of stereoscopic drawing, 3D images, virtual reality, and 3D graphics in general will get a lot out of this definitive reference work on 3D vision and 3D drawing. Filled with illustrations, examples, and exercises, the book explains in clear detail how we see in 3D and how to exploit this to create 3D images on paper or in the computer. I've worked in this area for some time, and I learned a lot about viewing planes, stereopsis, and 3D vision in general. The book includes explanations of stereoscopes, random dot sterograms, 3D comics, and impossible optical illusions. An excellent, "how to", practical guide.


Stonewall Jackson : Confederate General (Famous Figures of the Civil War Era)

An excellent juvenile biography of Stonewall Jackson
Well, it is clear to me that all of the volumes in the Famous Figures of the Civil War Era series are going to refer to their subjects by their first name, and while calling Stonewall Jackson "Tom" throughout this book does not bother me as much as calling William Tecumseh Sherman "William," I still have a fundamental problem with juvenile biographies that build familiarity between the subject and the reader by this tactic. This is especially true when you are talking about military leaders who led armies slaughtering one another.

That reservation aside, this is an excellent series for teaching young students more about some of the most important figures in the Civil War. Martha S. Hewson does a nice job of capturing the remarkable transformation of Thomas J. Jackson, from an odd professor at the Virginia Military Institute into one of the most brilliant leaders of American troops in the nation's history, immortalized as "Stonewall" Jackson. Hewson does an especially nice job of explaining some of the tactical maneuvers that earned Jackson his reputation. When, after Jackson's death, Robert E. Lee contends that the Confederates would have won the Battle of Gettysburg and therefore the Civil War if Jackson had still been alive, young readers will be inclined to agree. This book is illustrated with historic etchings and paintings, but, surprisingly, no photographs. Side-bars explore details from Jackson's life, such as why the Civil War was called "The Brother's War" and the importance of mapmaking to Jackson's campaign in the Shenandoah Valley. This is an excellent series for providing young students more information about the Civil War.

Best "non-winery" Guide for Sonoma Valley
This book is lots of fun to use while traveling around Sonoma Valley. You can't go a mile or two anywhere in the valley without passing by some landmark that's been written up. Each point of interest is described with an amusing story behind it. There are also fun (and scandalous) vignettes that relate to the Sonoma history.

All in all the perfect book to accompany any wine tour.

Wonderful book of stories from the past
These stories were taken from the poetic romances mainly of the 14th century, formally labelled "the middle ages", though somewhat past that. The tales perhaps descend from much earlier. The prose is modern and simple. There are stories from William and the Werewolf, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, King Horn, Guy of Warwick, and others, some 44 tales, collected into a wonderful book of short stories. The book is illustrated with 50 woodcuts. The cover and spine are gold embossed in the manner of mediaeval manuscript illumination, the most beautiful I've seen in an ordinary book of such wide distribution and low price. The paper is good quality. Read this book to escape and relax before going to bed.

An adequate introduction to the Arthurian legend!
I've always been fascinated with all things Arthurian and so I picked up _The Story of King Arthur_ by Tom Crawford. Included in this book are stories of the Sword in the Stone, the Round Table, Sir Lancelot, Morgan le Fay, Merlin, Guenevere and much more. I feel this book would be a nice way to introduce children to the legend. It contains just enough magic and daring exploits to keep them interested. It would also be satisfactory for older children or adults who want to reacquaint themselves with the tale. Though certainly not the best I've seen, the illustrations were nice and used in such a way as to bring the story to life while not taking from it. All in all, a pleasant, quick read at a great price.


A Stranger and Afraid

A Riveting Read
This book takes you back to Arthur's life when he was 8 years old and evacuated from London to the country for his safety in World War 2. It has many highs and lows and you wonder how any of the evacuess coped with such a drastic change in their young lives. It is thoroughly captivating to see how he survives his new school, religion and way of life.
A story which should be told to all and every generation.
