MacDonald/Pinto assert that Hadrian forged a new and innovative architectural system which integrated buildings with nature and human use. Hadrian's goal was to create an arrangement of buildings which were functional and yet challenged the intellect to contemplate the unseen world. They also make a very strong case for the pervasive influence which this complex villa has had on archtecture from ancient times to the present. This book makes one realize that Roman architecture is indeed relevant to the present.

I thoroughly recommend the purchase of this book to anyone engaged in the study of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as it almost functions as a "bible" of standard spectra for the elements. I also like the simple summary of the technique which actually includes a lot of information that would be hard to tease out of the overly technical texts on XPS that are around. For Universities and Research Institutes who have personnel experienced in XPS or who have the instrumentation, it is an essential purchase

Harriers are a rare breed in the US, this book gives you lots of information about the dogs and contains some beautiful photographs! It covers what the breed's history is, what they are like to live with, how to care for them, and demonstrates the dog's abilities with information about harrier packs, agility, obedience, and therapy work. There is also information about the harrier's health concerns and what to look for when you purchase a harrier puppy. If you are thinking about a harrier, you NEED this book!

I love this music!! Just like harry potter and the sorcerer's stone, this piano music is written exactly like the soundtrack. You can even play along with it. lol. The song "The Chamber of Secrets" is my favorite one to play, it really gets you into the dark feeling. "Fawkes the Phoenix" is very beautiful and my second favorite one. "Dobby the House elf" is my third favorite and well, they're all very good and you should buy it!

An excellent guide for entrepreneurs who are considering IPO or Acquisition as an exit strategy. The interviews with entrepreneurs who have "been through it" are extremely helpful.

A man before his time, H. W. Tilman changed the history of mountaineering by creating an ethic of the small, compact team attempting to summit high peaks and sail remote seas.

It is said that church history is the laboratory of doctrine; well this account of the first 500 years of the life of the church really proves this to be true. Wand manages to condense 500 years into an instructional yet highly educational read. Both scholar and young Christian will find this book a worthwhile addition to their collection. But be warned though its not for the faint hearted, he does not always paint a rosy picture of the 1st 500 years but shows it for what it is, a struggle for the truth to be preserved!

The authors and contributors to this book worked deep in the fine details of Houston's past. So much of it has been lost to the ages, but with Houston's Forgotten Heritage, it almost comes back to life through the fine photographs of the opulent homes and even the log cabins. It is a joy to show this book to many of my "old-timer" neighbors, who remember a building here and there, and even the old fixtures, appliances, and ways of life. We should all be grateful to the authors of this book for reminding us of our glorious past.
