I have been scanning it and love the print size and short, concise and easy to understand definitions. This is a perfect tool for anyone buying a house. I wish I would have had it when we bought our house and when we refinanced.

A book every Realtor® should own!

Having nearly 35 years of experience as a Realtor®, I believed that I was familiar with most real estate terminology. I discovered that while my belief was mostly correct, I did indeed expand my vocabulary and knowledge with this well done dictionary. I particularly enjoyed the clear, concise definitions, and that abbreviations were included as well as cross referencing of related terms.

Enhancing the information offered in the alphabetical portion of the dictionary is a section containing (1) The Anatomy of a House, an illustration of a two-story residential dwelling with 60 items identified; (2) a useful diagram that shows all forms of ownership; (3) a list of the U.S. states and the concurrent forms of ownership in each; (4) a most surprising diagram of the possible rights and interests in land; (5) explanation of how to calculate a mortgage payment using any of four calculators commonly used by Realtors; (6) a monthly payment matrix for a 30-year mortgage, showing intrest rates from 5% (will we ever see those again?) to 13.5%; (7) cost per $1000 borrowed on a fully amortized 30-year loan with equal monthly payments; (8) an excellent list of Web sites for real estate news, Associations related to the real estate industry, real estate finance, education, and government sites, etc. My compliments to the authors--Well Done!

This book I saw a copy of this around 20 years ago, and yup I bought it around Xmas 2001.(after searching and searching) it had been long out of print.
Lots of coffee, and too many late nights later, here's the deal.
If you are in programming, a jock, sales,news, in a radio station. You must buy this book.
Featuring some of the legends in American and World Broadcasting, the people who built Top 40 radio plus many other formats.

Although this book was written 25 years ago, the lessons for modern radio are still there. Its informative, interesting, funny and lots more.

Make sure you have a notepad and pen handy too, to note down some top tips!

Congrats to Hall and Hall for writing what for this programmer is still one of the books to have on my bookshelf

This is the best book every written on the subject of Radio Programming. If you have to choose between four years of studying radio in college or reading this book....Choose the book!

In the magical, green-leafed bower of Monk's Wood, Salema and Charles fell instantly and forever in love. Salema was prepared to travel the world with her handsome, strong and gentle Stranger. But Fate was to test their newfound passion, for Charles was the only son of the Duke of Mountaired--the elderly widower Salema's father intended her to marry! To refuse was to defy her father...yet love's honor demanded that Salema and her penniless Charles flee. At journey's end, they would find the glorious triumph of Love's most tender Gift... (large print/softcover/words from back cover) After a six year feud between the Duke and the Earl they are back on business, and their newfound friendship will test two people that are meant for each other. Incredible!

This is one of my favorites of her works. It is a dramatic story about a girl who marries a Laid of an enemy clan to save her brother from retribution and her clan from war. It takes place in tension ridden Scotland around the time of the Regent's visit. But what if the Regent is going to be assassinated and her husband, who she is learning to love, framed...

I love the historical feel of this novel. She really portrays the Scots fierce love for home-- and some antipathy towards England.

Hall, a brilliant prose stylist, has rendered an atonishing version of an underrated program. A must for lovers of rock music and literature everywhere. Bravo!

This book is so charming. The Illustrations are amazing. My sons 15 and 8 have cherished it for years. Owney, a homeless dog who wins the hearts of postal workers, found in a mailbag. True story of his adventures, a great family book.

This book is another one of the classic love stories. It brings true to life to some of her other romantic novels!!

Why would anyone want to buy the outdated, clinical-approach-only personality textbooks that are out there when they can have an updated, truly PERSONALITY-ORIENTED personality textbook such as this. This book goes into personality development in greater depth, tying current research and theory together. Written by experts in the field of personality / social psychology, this is a textbook for those who want to actually learn about or teach PERSONALITY development. If you want a clinical/therapy- oriented approach to personality, this text is not for you. If you want an excellent introductory textbook about personality development theories and contemporary research, snap this book up immediately.

This book gives you the inside look on how The Walk Across America changed Barbara and Peter. They talk about the people they met and how their lives were influenced by the people and how they influenced the lives of the people they met. They take you at different points of the walk and share some personal details that will bewilder you or just respect their drive to finish the walk. If you want to know Barbara and Peter; you will feel you know them after you read this book.

It includes recipes for things such as teas and potpourri and includes other ideas for lovely items that make perfect gifts or decorations for your home.
