My 4 year old listens to it endlessly
This book has a WEALTH of dinosaur information set to music that is a toe tapping good time. Any dinosaur fanatic will enjoy the songs about specific dinosaurs and their qualities. My child will sit and listen to the tape over and over again. We've borrowed it from the library so many times my son thinks he owns it. He will shortly - we're buying it for his birthday.

I won't write a report without it
This book is absolutely essential in answering questions about administration and scoring. It also does a fantastic job of explaining the theory behind the C-H-C theory and how it is used in the WJ-III. Finally, it gives great pointers in interpretation. It does a thorough job of explaining GAF, clusters, and subtests.


The Faith of Jesus Christ: The Narrative Substructure of Galatians 3:1-4:11 (The Biblical Resource Series)

Worth several readings
Richard Hays argues that Paul is telling or appealing to a story in his argument with the Galatians--the story of the faithfulness of Jesus Christ. There are many things of interest and value in this work. I will simply mention the provacative thesis that, many times, when our English Bibles translate "faith in Jesus Christ," Hays argues that Paul is actually referring to "the faith of Jesus Christ." Christ's own trust in God and his faithful obedience to the point of death on the cross is the crux of our salvation from the curse.

I still haven't decided if I'm sure Hays is right. As I have noted, the book is worth several readings. But for those looking for something meaty in New Testament theology, hermeneutics and/or literary theory, I think this should be at the top of your list.


A French Song Companion
Published in Hardcover by Oxford University Press (1900)
Authors: Graham Johnson and Richard Stokes
Amazon base price: $72.00
Average review score:

Worthy companion to Bernac
Pierre Bernac's _Interpretation of French Song_ has long been the indispensable reference volume for singers and coaches of this rich musical literature. The focus of the present volume is somewhat different, more comprehensive in its listings of composers (any composer of significance who set French texts is included, resulting in some surprising listings, Bernstein and Dinu Lipatti, for example), but less didactic in terms of pronounciation and performance. The translations by Richard Stokes are so good that one wishes even more had been included. Graham Johnson's commentaries on composers and songs are readable and full of insight. There are useful indices and suggestions for further reading. Altogether, this is a comprehensive and fascinating volume for both performing musicians and other lovers of French art song.


The Handbook of Fluid Dynamics
Published in Paperback by CRC Press (28 May, 1998)
Author: Richard W. Johnson
Amazon base price: $159.95
Used price: $114.38
Buy one from zShops for: $115.79
Average review score:

An all-inclusive handbook on all facets of fluid dynamics.
Finally a single reference that acts as an inclusive handbook on all areas on theoretical and applied fluid dynamics, including modern concepts and application. Well written and edited with each chapter covering a specific area, and written by recignized leaders in their respective area. Also, the authors recognize the fact that it is impossible to have a complete study of the topic in one text, and give many references to give a deeper dive in any one particular area. Definitely worth the money.
