My thanks to Gordon Padwick. Integrated Office Application lifted the veil from my eyes and I finally understood how to control one MS Office application from another. It has great, practical examples of how to control Excel from Access, Access from Excel, Excel from Word, etc. Learning about CopyFromRecordset (an Excel Range method) was enough to justify purchase of this book! I grok it now.

If most interiors books/magazines leave you feeling like someone else is trying to impose their taste on you, this is the book for you. It helps you identify your own personal style (easier said than done I find, especially as most people only get to decorate an apartment once every few years - you have to live with your mistakes). If you've just got one or two whimsical foibles, and a few strong likes or dislikes, it helps you locate these in one of six categories - e.g. pure. maverick, urban. Most of the time - and you can try the exercises on your friends - it gets it exactly right, and, more excitingly, makes you realise things about your taste you never would have guessed otherwise. In short, a lot of fun - and a much cheaper investment than buying something only to discover it doesn't go with any of your other stuff.

This set of books is very informative. The entries are interesting as well. It has lots of good pictures too. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in life science.

I am a huge fan of DK reference books and this book did not disappoint - beautifully set out, utterly readable and throughly researched. I have taken this book out of the library again and again and finally decided that I just couldn't do without my own copy. How much do you know about rolfing, tragerwork or the Feldenkrais method? This book gives you an overview of all sorts of therapies and it's colourful pages inspire you to study them all - if only I had enough hours in the day!!

All the information on the ANGEL himself. Now see his life from his point of view, exploring what makes him, him.Complete with pictures.

This excellent book is a sequel to the Frahm's first book, and is written for anyone who wants to develop healthy lifestyle choices, especially in the area of nutrition. It is practical, well written, and easy to understand and implement.

This book is extraordinarily well written. I read the book after having a biopsy on calcifications in my breast (which were benign, thankfully). But this was a full three weeks after I first heard about the problem with calcifications on my mammogram, and since I knew nothing about them, I spent many anxious hours worrying if I were going to lose my breast, die sooner rather than later, etc. Had I read the book at that point, my mind would have been so much more at ease.

This is fairly easy reading, with helpful graphics and excellent explanations, even of technical and medical terms. The explanation of the different types of biopsies is very good, as is the chapter on the risks of breast cancer (diagnosis rates and mortality rates). It's not as scary as we've been led to believe by the media.

I recommend this book to two audiences: 1. Women who have been told they have any sort of breast problem, whether cancerous or not. 2. Medical practioners who do not specalize in breast health, but who talk to women with potential problems. For example, my GP didn't know as much about calcifications, the biopsy procedures, and treatments, as I do, now that I have read the book.

To Whom It May Concern: Buy this book! Or borrow it your literary neighbor, or steal it from the library; anything, just get you hands on it. Out of This World is a comprehensive lexicon of of the life of the infamous St. Mark's in the Bowery Poetry Project. From Ginsberg to Ashberry, from O'Hara to St. Francis, from the down and dirty free verse of Paul Beatty and Jim Carroll to the the luminous prose of Mary Montenegro, this book is finger lickin' good. While it is dissappointing at times not to have more that one or two pieces by each poet, it gives you a scope that few works do. Elegantly edited and sequenced by Anne Waldman, the project's long-time director, Out of This World is a five-pound gem worth dodging library security or the wait for an out of print copy. Dig it.
