i would like to know the book content pls.

This translation of Averroes commentary is significantly better than the Butterworth, mainly because of the footnotes. For anyone to understand Aristotle is difficult enough, but this commentary is the best, and a necessary, first step. His commentary on the Isagoge is equally great.

Zbigniew Herbert (died 1998) is counted among the finest poets of 20th century Poland, on a par with Szymborska and Milosz, world-famous Nobel Prize winners. This book of essays is a record of his journeys in France, Italy and the Netherlands: from the rock-paintings of Lascaux, through the medieval architecture of the great cathedrals, to the quiet consummate perfection of the Flemmish Masters. The rich meditation on art and life is your reward for joining the eccentric and humane poet with his 19th century Baedekker guide.

Any one who enjoys music knows who Johann Sebastian Bach is and knows he led an incredibly interesting life. Basically Bach includes everything you want or need to know about Bach and his life. In my opinion Herbert Kupferberg did a really good job covering all of the aspects of Bach's life. In it he went through Bach's life and also some other famous Johanns and Bachs. Bach wrote pieces of music for the clavier, church songs for the organ, and operas. He was married twice. His first wife was Maria Barbara and his second was Anna Magdalena. This is a good book for anyone who is interested in history, good music, and Bach. You'll definitely enjoy this wonderful book by Herbert Kupferberg.

When I am at a lost to what to do next I get this book out and just read and look at the varity and skills it takes to accomplish them. After looking at this book I go straight to my easel and just put the pastel in hand and go for it. I absolutly love this book and would not go without it in my libary of books!I hope to see another one soon!

The biochemistry review contains a brief, but very well organized summary of each of the chapters in the Biochemistry book by Roskoski. There are questions at the end of each chapter pertaining to the topics discussed in the main text. These questions are meant to be a review for the USMLE exam for medical students and are written in that style and level of difficulty. Also, one of the best features I have found is the glossary at the end of the book that contains a variety of medical terms and their definition. I have learned a considerable amount about clinical situations just by looking up words I don't recognize in my readings and learning how they are used in clinical context. The last thing I want to point out is that the questions at the end of the chapter are followed by a key that contains detailed explanations of the answers. Not one sentence answers, but paragraphs of information that are extremely beneficial in learning biochemical concepts.

In 1977, this book transformed a scientific field. In the 1990s, its reprinting is mainly of historic interest. Not much of the biogeochemistry data from Hubbard Brook in the intervening 20 years have been integrated into this "2nd edition."

This is one of the best books I've seen for identifying birds in the San Diego area. The seasonal frequency charts are useful, and the colored drawings of the birds are professionally rendered in a way that makes the birds really recognizable in the field. The text also contains good practical pointers for field identification.

This poem is one that is written from an unusual point of view. The point of view is of Judua, the man who betrayed Jesus. Mr. Reece he perfectly placed his own view of Jesus aside and took on the outlook of the man who delivered Jesus into the hands of the crusifers. Judus did so only for a few peices of silver. The poem starts as a man telling a story of his betrayal, then it continues to show a man's remorse and guilt. This poem has many different bible references to the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. I would suggest this poem for any religious reader. It will really open your eyes to the views of Judus.

I read _Blood on the Dining Room Floor_ a couple months ago, during a time when I read almost nothing but sharp, hardboiled pulp detective stories. I might suggest that method -- read some old Sam Spade shorts (contemporary with Stein's writing of this little gem), then read this book, then go back.

Where Hammett and company's tales are sharp, grittily realistic, and driven by swarthy melodramatic plots, Stein's one mysterious foray into the Murder Mystery genre has little discernible plot, is distinctly un-swarthy, lacks melodrama, and for these reasons is perhaps far more realistic than Hammett et al. are held to be; _Blood_ clearly reflects the confusion we (I) feel in the face of traumatic events... the mind reels before the reality (which always lacks cliche and melodrama) of violence and leaves one (me) with nothing but an almost incoherent froth of language in one's (my) head, out of which occasionally bubble moments of "clarity": bits of facts and/or memories of incidents and characters which may or may not be accurate. Sometimes, too, the froth dissolves into moments of almost ritual invocation: "Lizzie do you understand do you understand lizzie": the mind reaching out to (hi)stries of past violence (the fall river axe murders, lizzie borden) to unsuccesfully but compulsively try to order and give meaning to the violence at hand.

Dazzling. The full effect of this book (the composition of "my take" on it which appears above) came only after weeks of letting the book sit in the back of my mind, as I moved back to pulp detective stories and on to other things.

It is classic Stein, a pure uncut jewelled antidote to the false-feeling closures of the usual mystery novel and the journalistic, faux-objective treatments of the violent throughout fiction, film, and (dare I mention) TV. A true refuge for the "thinking" person.
