very relevant to those handling temporal goods of the church
there are many reasons why this books is recommendably true and good to many readers. first it is descriptive so that every reader has an idea of what this corporation sole is all about. It is historical. It presents a historical feature of the corporation sole from one place to another and primarily in the Chicago diocese. It is interestingly inviting to those who have never been told to or have never been familiar regarding the church's inherent right to alienate, acquire and possess goods for the church herself. As a separate entity or a visible organization hierarchically structured with laws and norms, it is able to handle its temporal goods which is necessary in the propagation of the faith and the maintenance of the church property and mission. Nevertheless, it is significant to students of both civil law and canon law since it would allow them to take a glimpse of this particular provision - that is - corporation sole - to which the church is in a way benefitting in its relation with the state. Although there is such a principle of the separation of the Church and State, this book identifies the situations in which both can actively participate and join together in these concerns.

My great pleasure is seeing t romantic side of W.E.B. Dubois
I loved it. I love Dubois' fatherly spirit, his international wisdom, and the strength he has in showing this side of himself, inspite of threats that this kind of writing could end his writing career . I have read many of DuBois books, however, this is the very first time that I have even heard (1997) about a romance book. And told that it's the only one. Still, from Dubois-WOW!! And to hear him say that he really likes this kind of writing, that it's his favorite book, but others discouraged him, both Black and White. I feel very special and priviledged (though its public) to know this romantic side of Dubios, compared to his other more well-known writings. I'm glad this side of him didn't get lost.

His words of encouragement still speaks volumes to me today. Its been awhile since I read the book, and I know this posting is old. Anyway, I happen to have a book here with me that has a quote from Dubios that I believe is from Dark Princess. "I have known the women of many lands and nations, I have known, seen, and lived beside them, but none have I known more sweetly feminine, more unansweringly loyal, more desperately earnest, and more instinctively pure in body and soul than the daughters of my African-American mothers. This then-a little thing-to their memory and inspiration."

How insightful and sensitive to write such encouraging words for all the world to read. Still, I'd like to know more on what Dubois did to combat sexism in his time. I've read only small pieces of Dubios' feelings on how African American females were being slighted, I think. Did he ever speak directly to the sexism within the African-American community?

BELOVED, LISTEN TO CONSCIENTIOUS VOICES.
Fondly called W.E.B., Dr William Edward Burghardt DuBois was a conscientious voice, whose mouthpiece was just a pen. Each of his writings buttressed this point.
A bundle of intellect, all his works have remained potent till this day. Having enumerated the problems and experiences of emancipated slaves in "The Souls of Black Folk", Dr DuBois used this book, "Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil", to highlight the intricacies of the then White-Black relationships. This book has a socio-economic focus, and dealt with such associational issues like exploitative labour, voting rights, women's rights, and family values. It suggested guidance and remedies wherever necessary. The ideas and insights of Dr DuBois were general in perspective: both Whites and Blacks were thought of.
This book is more than eighty years old; however, anybody who reads it, needs only to turn a few pages before discovering that we are still grappling with most of its lamentations.
Finally, I must say that I cherished reading this book. "Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil" is a compelling piece; especially for anyone who is familiar with either "The Souls of Black Folk" or "Dusk of Dawn".

Dear America
These books are very interesting and informative. It is important for people, especially children, to read. They will only do so if the books spark their interest. My daughter has read almost all of the books in this set and loves them. they inspire her to do research and read more books about the past.

Soothing to the Soul
An inspirational book that is soothing to the soul. Dr. Deming, along with Juran and Crosby, were the trilogy of the Total Quality movement in the 1980s and 1990s. What has evolved has at its roots the 14 points, System of Profound Knowledge, and Seven Deadly Diseases--all of which are dealt with admirably in this wonderful concise book. It is a must for all followers of Deming and for those who want to learn more about quality improvement.

Virtually guaranteed to make your resume the best it can be!
I would recommend this book to *anyone* writing or revising a resume...if only it were in print! Ed Good is unfailingly easy to read, and he makes his points clearly and often humorously. This book covers topics from graphic layout to syntax to paper selection, all with the goal of helping the reader create a resume that will catch an employer's eye and secure the reader an interview. Personally, I found it an ego boost to look objectively at my past experiences and think about ways to "advertise" them. I ended up with a resume that immeasurably outshined the one I started with, but also with a much better sense of what specific strengths I could offer an employer. Regardless of how sure you already are that you know what you're doing, this book can surely teach you a few things about writing your resume.
