Concise Classic from a Master of Masters
John Calvin is among the clearest, and most systematic of the Reformers. "Instruction in Faith" is an early work, written when Calvin was no more than 29 years of age. In this small volume Calvin has no polemic goals in mind. He is only interested in expounding Biblical Christianity, as he understands it, with as much pith and perspicacity as he is able. It is a superb introduction to Calvin and the Reformers and a nonpareil brief systematic theology. Indeed, it is in that capcity that the volume has the greatest value. I know of no more succinct summation of Christian doctrine (excepting, of course, the Westminster Shorter Catechism and in many ways I prefer this) and certainly know of no other with an author of comparable authority. This is well worth the time of any Christian young or old. Paul Fuhrmann's introduction is quite informative as well.

(Annual) Definintive guide to aircraft and engines
For almost 80 years Jane's has published an annual guide to currently produced aircraft (including Remotely Piloted Vehicles, Balloons, Sailplanes, Sport (homebuilt/experimental) aircraft, and aircraft engines. It has become the definitive guide to aircraft. Detailed descriptions of the aircraft, performance, systems and design are included. Jane's style is dry (arid) but well developed. Any reader whose interests are in the romance associated with a maker or model, or who delights in the vicarious thrill of climb power and roll rates will find this a dull text. The reader who need to determine which models were manufactured in which years and equipped with which engines will find a data trove within these pages.

Good summary
This book provides a concise and very readable summary of John Paul II philosophy of the human person. The main section of the book presents John Paul's philosophy of education by gathering together his many written thoughts on the matter -- works from both before and after becoming pope.
The entire book is very readable and understandable for all, whether or not you have a good grounding in philosophy. It gives some good "food for thought" for all educators.

John Paul II's Book of Mary
I find this book to be very inspirational and insightful to John Paul II's, one of the holiest men alive, knowledge and understanding of our Blessed Mother in the Catholic Church today. The author has taken 17 different titles of Mary and taken many different speaches, writings, etc and put them together to show JPII's desire for us to know who Mary is and what she does for us. I really took a great deal from this book as I not only use it as a prayer meditational, but also as a refernce helping me to grow in my devotion to Mary.

Inspiration for living
Pope John Paul II has beatified some 1,786 Saints during his pontificate, and will canonize another 150 in the Jubilee year. The number alone exceeds the number canonized by any other Pope in history, leading some to describe his pontificate as a "Saint factory." This book provides an exhaustive glimpse into that factory with the hagiographies of more than 300 canonized Saints and 700 beatified Saints. The book includes such inspiring biographies as Blessed Gianna Beretta Molla, the Italian wife, mother and doctor who unselfishly gave her life for her unborn child; the handsome, young, mountain climber Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati; and Mexican martyr Father Miguel Pro.
Having just completed one of the bloodiest centuries the world has ever seen, Pope John Paul II is trying to tell us something. These stories are examples of his vision for the Church. They provide inspiration that he knows we will need as we face the century ahead of us. Furthermore, the stories prove that anyone can become a Saint -our friends, neighbors, co-workers, children, and maybe even ourselves.
