I am an engineer. I evaluate this book very highly because this book comes in pretty handy for rubber information. It quotes tons of references and is well organized to find the related references.
I want to tuck it into my technical book shelf.

This is a great (if somewhat difficult) book. It opened my eyes to the depth of Christian liturgy, and its close relationship to Jewish liturgy. It is rich with musical examples. Highly recommended if you want to know more about the origins of chant, liturgy, etc.

This a great book that talks about the travels of a young sailor. The text is jam packed with nautical terms and lexicon of a by-gone era. If you are a sailor with dream to relive your youth as a pirate, this is a must read book.

Dr. Weinberg, for many years a professor of Hebrew and Semitic languages at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati, was imprisoned in Bergen-Belsen during WW2. He and his wife survived the horror of the Holocaust and rebuilt their lives in America after the war.

His book is a thoughtful, reflective, and touching memoir of his experiences during those awful years. He feels the obligation to share his experiences with others, because survivors of the Holocaust are gradually passing away, and someone must tell the world what it was like, so hopefully it will never happen again.

Weinberg's book is exceptionally well written and readable, and it has pictures and other illustrations which enhance its appeal. Anyone interested in learning more about what it was like to experience the Holocaust will enjoy this book immensely.

i've just reviewed this book and i think this book can enhanced the technical of sketching. Step by step we can learn more about sketching by the author.

Many people are interested in dirt. People who clean cars are interested in dirt. The nice people at Proctor & Gamble are very intereted in dirt. But perhaps the most interested of all are farmers who spend much of their time thinking about dirt, putting things in dirt and taking things out of the dirt. Sometimes they don't take enough things out of the dirt or the wrong things grow in the dirt, so they have to add more stuff to the dirt to make it more productive. This is often fertilizer except in Arkansas where they use tobacco juice. In less robust economies (read, those not served by Archer Daniels) fertilizer is often based on human or animal wastes. In those societies this cyclical cycle is called survival. Here in the United States of America it is called Organic Farming and one should expect to pay a pretty price for it. As a matter of fact, the other day, I was in the Wild Oats Market near where I live and they were charging this gosh-awful price f! or something called organic bananas. Now, I like organic foods as much as the next guy, but let's face it, paying over $1 per pound for organic bananas is nuts. (Hmmm. I didn't even really mix my metaphor). Back in 1967 when I was working as a porter at the old A&P warehouse, we had to unload freight cars of bananas and put them into a special room to ripen them. And we couldn't care less back then if it was organic or not. A banana was a banana and aside from those we would swipe when we were hungry, our greatest concern was not getting bitten by a spider or one of those gigantic roaches that would stowaway on the banana boats. As long as the banana is not too mushy and someone doesn't try to fool me by substituting a plantain, I don't really care what they put around the roots. But I digress.

Tisdale's book is considered the definitive treatise on Soils and Fertilization. It is the standard text at really fine Aggie schools in this great land of ours and if you ! are really in to gardening, farming or just want to know mo! re about fertilizer than anyone else in your social set or in your chapter of Future Farmers of America, or 4-H. (Do you know that there are many active chapters of 4-H in New York City and its environs?) So, help rocket Tisdale's fifth edition out of its doldrums as the 125,000th most sought after title at Amazon.com. He is a lot more informative than Tom Clancy or Tony Robbins and he writes better too. Buy buying this and giving it to your friends as a Christmas gift it may move it up to become the 90,000th most popular title at AmazonDotCom (who came up with that clunky name, Borzos? Couldn't you name it after your mother, or maybe come up with something poetic like ArchonsOfColophon.com?)

This is the first romance novel I've ever read (I'm usually reading information, health books, tips on life & livingness type stuff). I was a bit embarrassed even buying this book. I must say, I was completely captivated by the characters, the story, the author's ability to "turn a phrase". I loved it.

I have been buying art books related to private collections for the past 10 years and this is the most comprehensive book of a private collection that I have seen. I has been divided for the works on canvas, paper, sculpture, art objects, etc. I am also a collector and if I would try to make a book of my own collection I would follow the same format of this book. Finnaly to make this book indispensable is the incledible collection that these two collectors where able to put together and to the Museum that made this exposition posible. To all art collectors this is a must of how an art collection should be.
