We love Snappy Books!
As always, this Snappy book is adorable and loved by our 2 year old! This book is the greates number book I've ever seen (as a preschool teacher, I've seen many), because it really encourages kids to count, in a fun manner. Each page coordinates with the number, for example, the page with the number seven has a lion with seven whiskers, but all the other creatures on the page, are pictured in sevens. The book also shows the written out and the numerical form for each number. It was an instant hit in our household!

Great Book
My daughter received this book when she was a couple months old and she is now 6. She still loves it! The pictures are wonderfully colorful and the pop-ups are amazing. The book is not thick, but big, which lets for big, colorful pictures. Also, the pop-ups do a cute action as you open the page up. This book is vivid and entertaining enough to even capture an adult's attention. A definite buy!

Great books for ANY age!
I have a three month old daughter and her eyes light up when she sees the pictures of the animals and the bugs! The pictures are so bright and capture her attention! Hope to see more books, perhaps with sea creatures, birds, rain forest animals....! Great job!

Exceptional
This book is particularly best reference for research students working in the area of CDMA systems design or algorithm development. With extensive coverage, you will find any thing that you need to know about CDMA IS-95 systems.

Another good CDMA book
Artech house is the best publisher of CDMA books on the planet, hands down

A perfect book for both newbie and guru
This book not only clearly presents the CDMA/spread spectrum theories, but also structurally analyzes the reasons behind IS-95 standard from the system design perspective. As pointed by the other readers, this book is self-contained. However, if you already had a decent communications engineering background, you might find some parts of book are redundant.

HIGHLY recommended!! A perfect CDMA book for both newbie and guru.

Christina Katerina
This was one of my favorites as a girl, and now my 3-year old son loves it too! He has an active imagination and just feeds off of great books like this. We had a new refrigerator delivered this year and my son was so excited to turn the box into a castle like "Christina Scatterina" (as he pronounces it). When I looked for the book on Amazon I was elated to find that there is a whole series of Christina books that I never knew about!

First Rate Story For Your Child's Active Imagination!!
This book was so special to me as a little girl and I am now reading my worn out copy to my 3-year-old son, who loves it too! This year we had a new refrigerator delivered and my son couldn't wait to turn the huge box into a castle like "Christina Scatterina" (as he pronounces it). This is a must-have for your child if they love exploring their imagination. I went on Amazon to see about getting a new copy and was surprised to find that there is a whole series of Christina books!

Favorite of my son and now my grandson
Christina Katerina and The Box was a favorite of my son twenty years ago. Now that my grandson enjoys books, I wanted to share his uncle's favorite book with him. I was pleased to find it readily available on amazon. It is a book that stretches a child's imagination. Your children will want to read it over and over again.


Economy of God
Published in Paperback by Living Stream Ministry (1961)
Author: Witness Lee

Average review score:

For those seeking a purpose in life.
The Economy of God will give you the answers you seek about your purpose in life from God's perspective based on the Bible. If you are seeking the plan of God for your life, you have found it! Seek no more.

This book is for those who have a pure heart to seek Christ.
The book touches the highest administration in the whole universe - the administration of the triune God! Not like human administration that is politics-oriented, God's administration is life-oriented, which is to give God's divine life to those who need Him and want Him, through Jesus Christ. Witness Lee used 'economy' of God in stead of 'administration' of God just because the Greek word 'economy' most characterizes God's life-driven administration.

Because of human's falling, the salvation has to be involved in God's administration. The very God had to become a man to die for man. Praise the Lord, His administration did not stop by His death. His resurrection and resurrection power have made this life-driven administration continue and even consummate in the New Jerusalem!

Now God's administration is exercised in the Church: "I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." (Mat 16:18) God needs His believers to participate in His divine economy on this earth, and to destroy Satan's kingdom and build up God's kingdom, which is the domain of His authority, His administration, and His divine life. "But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you." (Mat 12:28)

I have never read any book like Economy of God that unveils God's heart's desire in such a deep and thorough way. The book is a must for those who have a pure heart to love and seek Christ, and want to participate in God's divine economy today on this earth.

God has a purpose, a plan and the means to carry it out
This book does a wonderful job of expressing in simple terms - the heart of God. No other writer have I found who so intimately understands our Lord and presents his view in such a way that we come away encouraged and refreshed.

Silver Surfer in the Silver Age
Stan Lee lost the opportunity for dozens of great stories when he had Galactus confine the Silver Surfer to earth. Don't get me wrong, these are some classic stories, but a more space-faring Surfer would have been nice.

The real highlight is John Buscema's artwork. It's possibly some of the best of his career, and doesn't seem to lose anything in black and white. His work, in contrast with Jack Kirby's, is much more realistic and subtle. As far as the writing goes, hey, it's Stan Lee and thus always entertaining, but he gets a little too preachy in spots for my tastes.

One of the best stories is where the Surfer encounters Mephisto for the first time. The art is incredible, and we really see what makes the Surfer tick. It's worth it for this story alone. The origin story is the only one featuring Galactus, and it's very entertaining as well. Also exceptional is the issue where the Surfer takes on Thor. This is really Stan Lee at his very best, tossing out hilariously over-the-top Asgardian speak in the "thrilling Marvel fashion". And no one could ever draw brooding characters like Johnny Buscema. Check out the shot of Loki slumped in his chair. Now that, my friends, is brooding. Really, how could you not love this?

We even get a Spider-Man appearance, but as usual in his early guest appearences, Spidey comes off as quite the little jerk. It's still fun to see him take on the Silver Surfer though. Overall, a very worthy purchase.

Definitely essential for every comic fan's collection
The Silver Surfer has always been a bit preachy, and believe me he definitely does a lot of that in this book, but this is still one of the best series every done by any company. The scripting is truly eloquent.

The true merit of a comic illustrator's art is how it shows up without color, and John Buscema's work shines in this volume. It's really too bad he is so wasted on a lackadaisical book like Conan the Barbarian nowadays...Buscema has always been one of comic's finest artists: no flash, no exaggerated figures...just technical perfection. Too bad Todd McFarlane or Jim Lee apparently never read these comics before beginning their wasted careers. Jack Kirby provides the art for the final story in the book.

The Surfer meets up with many Marvel luminaries, including Thor, Spider-Man, The Inhumans and the Human Torch, and faces off against Mephisto, The Flying Dutchman, The Stranger and many more mundane menaces that are given extra life in these stories.

Of all the great "relevant" sixties comics, The Silver Surfer stories have probably withstood the test of time the best. Definitely a must-have volume.

Silver Age Angst At Its Finest
This is a grand collection of stories from Marvel's greatest era. Stan Lee never wrote better and John Buscema's artwork is gorgeous. The first half of the Silver Surfer run consisted of double sized stories reflecting a larger scope. Lee took full advantage of it. My favorite was the double sized Stranger story which was extremely heroic and touching. All of today's comic creators should read this series of books and especially this one to see the way it was done right.

This book makes it so easy to draw good horses!
I love this book! I gives really easy instructions so you can draw really good horses, even if you couldn't before. It even tells you what kind of pencils and supplies you should have if you want to draw.

We were very pleased with this book. The book gives simple yet accurate "how-to"s. A wonderful book.

Factual, I was there
Sir, Your accounting of the abilities of our teams brought back so many memories. The price we had to pay is still so unknown to so many. I carry the memory of my friend and teammate Sgt.A.Garcia with me every day. I am proud that I had the honor to serve under you and with men like him. For those who fought for it freedom has a taste the protected will never know.
Doc Parrish 3rd. Force Recon 1969-1970

Remarkable men, passing too soon from our lives...
I believe this is a very balanced work, and sets forth a compelling remembrance of the good and great men who served under unspeakable conditions, and gained little by it for themselves but silent honor.

I bought and read this book, after returning from the funeral of my friend's father, Lt. Col. Buck Coffman, this past weekend (1 Sept., '01). Col. Coffman was a fascinating, remarkable man who served his nation well. Sometimes, perhaps, better than it's people deserved. I knew him apart from his role as warrior (though ALWAYS a Marine), and he set a standard to aspire to, as a man and as Man. He was loved truly by his family and friends.

At his memorial service, I had the privelege of meeting the author, Col. Lee, as well as Maj. Norton, Col. Morris, Gen. Gray and several of the other courageous men who served with them in the Marines; men written of in this book. Each and every one of them impressed me with their intelligence, decency and honor, and for the love they so obviously share for one another.

I am now starting on Doc Norton's Force Recon Diaries. I am very grateful to the men who write these books. We should always remember that giants DO walk the earth. I'm honored to have spent a time, even but a moment, in the shadow of one.

a good book but.....
It seems that all of these Force Recon books are concerned with the war after 1969, during the downsizing of Americas involvement. dont they realize that the worst of the war was prior to that ,in 67-68. Also, i dont care for the way col. Lee is critical of the unit prior to his arrival. This very company was the first into the DMZ in 1967, it patrolled Con Thien in the bad days and patrolled the Khe Sanh area with 4 man teams. the company had a Medal of Honor winner and a number of Navy Crosses prior to his arrival. Regardless it is still an excellent book and the views above are mine alone.

Shoulda Found a Ghostwriter
Katie Lee has led a remarkable life. But while she may be a fine story teller for a live audience, she is a poor writer. I found it a slow book to flog myself through- despite an enormous interest in the subject. Too bad she couldn't have put her ego aside and sat down with a professional writer. I can think of several women writers of the west that would have been a boon to the project. I look forward to the Katie Lee biography from one of them.

From the heart...
Katie Lee has written a beautiful & powerful love story & funeral song to a place some considered the most beautiful on earth, now drowned under Lake Powell. The book is largely exerpts from Katie's river journals from 40+yrs ago & has an immediacy that left me feeling like I was in Glen Canyon with her. She mentions that she shared early drafts of a fiction version with Ed Abbey, who told her to just write her own story. That she couldn't make up anything better than her own experiences. Ed Abbey was right. I devoured the book in one emotional sitting, then spent the rest of the day wandering aimlessly with dreams & visions of lost desert canyons in my mind.

Looking to the Past
Katie Lee has given us a wonderful glimpse at a lost treasure. Her discriptions of the river and side canyons tell of her love of this lost world. My 2nd greatgrandfather went through Glen Canyon in 1872 with the second Powell Expedition and Katie has given me some feeling as to What he saw and the places he visited. I never understood what a treasure Glen Canyon was to Us till I read her book. Thank You Katie Lee
