Exercise With a Twist
I'm a weight lifter. When my massage therapist told me about this book and told me it was about muscle strength, I thought that no one could be stronger than I was. I tried a couple of the exercises in the book and realized I was not as strong as I thought I was. All I can say is give it a try you will be surprised how much more effective you become in the weight room and with all exercise. I can lift more and I look better. My body is leaner and more cut. I also enjoy my workouts more because I am not sore afterwards. I particularly enjoyed the CD-ROM. It is a very effective way to learn about this therapy and to try it for yourself. I recommend this book highly to anyone who wants to look and feel better.

Feeling Like a New Person!
I have had pain for the majority of my life and have sought various treatments including physical therapy, chiropractic, massage, acupunture...you name it, I've tried it. Everyone of whom said they could help me. No one did. My doctor recommeded this book saying it would help me. He was right. A sceptic by heart I tried it halfheartedly. But couldn't believe how much better I felt in a week. I immediately called the clinic and booked myself in for an appointment. Today, I am still doing the exercises every day, running, dancing and enjoying my life. Thanks to the people at Symmetry.

Best Book Available
This book is one of the better ones available for business proposals. It IS the best book on the subject for people who work in businesses related to science and technology.

The author's approach is straightforward, without the usual sales mumbo jumbo in other books. I found his strategies for improving the odds of success very effective.

The book is a bit expensive, but after winning a couple multi-million dollar contracts that price seemed very small.

Absolutely Awesome. Very Usable and Comprehensive
Unlike most books about proposal writing, this book really gets down to the nuts and bolts. But it also provides persuasion strategies that really help land the client. The book would work with business or technical applications.

I've read many books on proposals, but this is the only one I would recommend. You won't need another book if you have this one.

A photographic window into African-American history
"All Around Town: The Photographs of Richard Samuel Roberts" combines the subject matter of the title with an easy-to-read text by Dinah Johnson. An author's note at the end states that Roberts was a self-taught photographer who documented African-American life in Columbia, South Carolina, and other places in the 1920s and 1930s.

This book is full of wonderful images: a proud graduate in cap and gown, a baseball team, uniformed schoolgirls, a couple posing with a classic car, a man with a dog, a young soldier in uniform, and much more. There are some particularly nice pictures of children that should appeal to contemporary kids. Together these pictures offer a moving glimpse into the lives of African-Americans in Roberts' time. Roberts had a real gift for photography, and the format of this book makes that gift accessible to young readers. Highly recommended.

Excellent resource for growing children of Aging Parents
Increasingly, more and more of us will need some good advice on how to cope with this issue, parents who start acting childish and children who need to become parental in thier loving care of aging parents.

Johnson presents a highly effective methodology to aid one in finding a comfort level in such care, that is supportive yet does not allow for continued heaping of guilt, both from the self and others, including the parents.

This book is compassionate, yet permits a rational, Biblical plan to be developed, implemented, and best of all, to feel good about it. I recommend it to many I counsel with this issue, and they report back its great blessing to them.

Daily Life in Johnson's London

Lucid window into 18th Century London/England
Before starting this book, I had begun reading the better known "Dr. Johnson's London" by Liza Picard. But as an American reader, I became frustrated. For example, Ms. Picard refers to prices in terms of "d." [6 d. etc.] I suppose that any British reader knows that the "d." stand for, but I was wondering, "Pound? Quid? Shilling?" Schwartz specifically explains that 4 farthings = 1 penny, which is abbreviated as "d."
Ms Picard is British, and assumes that the reader knows many other incidentals that American readers may not know. Half way through that book, I turned to this one instead. Perhaps because Richard Schwartz is American, his book is more accessible for "Yanks." His writing is lucid, yet this short book is crammed with fascinating details about 19th century English life. It includes such specifics as the fact that wigs were greased before being powdered, and that insects infested the wigs! There are countless other similarly specific details. For example, Schwartz is specific about what 19th century folk spent on various items, even comparing the prices of traveling by coach vs. wagon etc.
Now that I have finished reading this marvellous introduction to the era, I will go back and finish reading Picard's "Dr. Johnson's London" and will hopefully get more out of it.
