EXCELLENT
The story was enthralling, and I could not put the book down until I had read the last word. I loved the characters, and all the past lives Doug experienced,and how everyones lives revolved aroung each other. The only disappointing aspect of the book was that it ended. I want to know more about their lives and what happens to every-one. I hope Bill Rowe and Peter Cooper contiue to write, and keep entertaining us all!!

Wowsa
This is a highly readable discussion of the 33 and 34 act requirements of the SEC as they apply to accountants. I think it is essential reading for any Controller/ CFO or independent accountant about to perform work for and SEC registrant or private company about to file an s1.

I find it highly readable. The CD alone is worth the price.

Very good book!
God's last day armourbearers is for men and women who are willing to accept the challenge to come up higher in areas where they can be fruitful in the advancement of God's kingdom on earth.

This book will encourage you to put your fears behind you and step into your role as one of God's last day armour bearers. There are not many books on this subject and I found this book refreshing to have a different authors view of armour bearing.

An important contribution to 20th Century Chinese history
This is the very readable interesting story of Grace Divine, an aspiring opera student from Chatanooga, Tennessee, who married a Chinese engineering student, moved to China in the 1930's and raised a family. It is the story of the Japanese occupation, the civil war in the 1940's, the political changes of the 1950's, the Great Leap Forward, tne Cultural revolution amd various and sundry changes in China during the 40 years from 1934 to 1974.

All told in the most interesting and contiguous manner. The book is historically interesting - telling how a courageous woman raised her family through it all. An inspiring true story which should be read not only for inspiration and enjoyment, but can also be used as a reference book for those who want to know more about China during this period.

Greatest Time of Design!
this book is a real find! there are some truly magnificent and stylistically ground-breaking samples of early 20th century graphic design here. most of the selections represent the pinnacle of the german and russian avante-garde designers of the 1920's and 30's, including alexandr rodchenko, el lissitsky, lazlo-moholy nagy and many others. But there is also a decent overview of french and american designers as well.

this period of work is profound because of it's ingenuity, daring graphic experiments in text and layout, and it's use of collage, photos and text, and dada influences to create bold graphic statements. the pieces included in this volume span many different media in the graphic arts...war propaganda, art exhibition posters, product advertising, civil program posters, packaging, publishing, and even fine art.
it is a testament to this collection of designers, because many of them worked simultaniously in many different mediums all at once, especially those involved in the bauhaus movement and the russian avante-garde artists.

this book is an excellent overview of this period in graphic design, and would provide endless inspiration for anybody involved in any field of design. i cannot recommend it strongly enough!


Managing Windows NT Server 4

This is a very well-informed and in-depth technical referenc
Unlike many books of this genre, Managing Windows NT server 4.0 is a well thought out analysis of each component of Windows NT server and how they interrelate. Rather than skim the surface, this book plunges head-first into the depths of the operating system to increase the reader's understanding of Microsoft's flagship product.

Examples of this include the chapter on Disk Administrator, which stands out as a sterling example of technical reference. Clear, concise and revealing, it is a pleasure to read.

The command-line technical reference is also stunning in its depth, and often reveals more items than digging through the manuals.

In all, an excellent volume.


Real Estate Investment: Strategy, Analysis, Decisions: Problems and Casebook
Published in Paperback by Georgia State Univ Pr (1983)

Amazon base price: $16.95
Average review score:

Comprehensive, Well Organized, Well Researched
As a real estate investor I often refer to this book when I am in need help making a decision. It is the next best thing to having a seasoned partner who has been through many market cycles. As a Licensed Commercial Real Estate Appraiser and Broker I am impressed with the material as well as how it is presented. While lifetime of practical knoweledge is somehow reduced to a single 900 page plus book, it is not "dumbed down" for mass appeal purposes. Although I was introduced to this book through a course at Boston University I found it's format more interesting than academic.When investing your money in real estate it is better to read a book like this and learn than, to "just do it" and learn the hard way, believe me. This book is a keeper for your professional library.

Epistemological, religious, and pragmatic matters
The Unity Of William James's Thought by Wesley Cooper (Professor of Philosophy, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada) is a uniquely presented survey and an engaging examination of the philosophical works of eclectic personality and pioneering philosophy of William James. Professor Cooper rejects the commonly held view that James' philosophy was fragmented, countering that there is indeed a logical system and doctrine to be found in James' writings and legacy. Epistemological, religious, and pragmatic matters are analyzed and discussed in this scholarly and persuasively argued treatise. The Unity Of William James's Thought is a welcome and scholarly contribution to History of Philosophy supplemental reading lists and academic reference collections.

One of the great literary wonders? No...but...

The man's name has become synonymous with ecstastic exaltation...I mean he symbolizes all I hold dear and virtuous in this sometimes dirty world...trust me, there's nothing better...nothing even compares...this is in its own category, its own stratosphere...orders of magnitude clearer, less perverse, and more shiny than any other...you gotta do it...do it!...please, i beg you, get it done. O'Ransky, progeny of the Bull Even if you don't, make sure someone else does...someone you love...or someone with whom Stanhope could share.
