A Major Step For Our Anglo-Saxon Society...
Robert Munsch should be praised for tanscending the typical depictions of God in our society. Through depicting God as a little black girl, Munsch expounds the stereotypical images of God within our society. This book has great literary value for children and adults of all ages and colours. If you promote the current attempts to alter the images of white superiority within children's literature give this book a read! Thank you Munsch, your book represents a large step towards equality within our anglo-saxon society.

BEST PSYCHOLOGY OF PUTTING AUDIO EVER!
I've listened to all the putting audios and read all the books on putting, and this one is the best! Dr. Cohn and his associate do a great job to helping you find the mindset to make putts. What I like is that I can listen to the audio over and over and still learn new stuff. This is loaded with mental keys for better putting. A must buy for any golfer who has the putting woes!!!

THE BOOK on Wireless
We have been trying to decide on some of the best wireless initiatives for our company for quite some time. This book was incredibly useful in understanding where some of the industry leaders see the future going. I especially liked the chapter written by the CEO of AT&T Wireless. This book is a must have for anyone interest in wireless opportunities or in the wireless industry.

Excellent character studies & monologues to use
... If you do get a chance to read it... you will be amazed at the detailed characters built up by the long, uninterrupted monologues.
There isn't a plot as such, its set in the early 70's and involves a group of 6 unrelated characters explaining their lives in the setting of a bar, looking back at the sixties and what it meant for them. The characters include a frustrated model obsessed with becoming a 'marilyn' like figure and a young alchoholic who works in underground theatre.
Brilliant to read - and I think even better to see on stage, its a pity it hasn't been more widely acclaimed.
Especially good if you have any auditions coming up because every scene is its own self contained monologue, and incredably naturalistic considering the monologue format.

As good as any hiking guide
As with other Woods' books, exquisitely detailed and well-written. Read about some of the first western visitors to this area. Gives you a new outlook on these trails when you know what this expedition went through. Highly recommended.

A manual no bar enthusiast should be without
Opening with an impassioned plea to maintain the dignity his trade, Patrick Gavin Duffy presents a representative collection of drinks from his era (1940's-50's). He includes drinks from the prohibition, warning those who would attempt to mix them. The drinks are organized by base liquor, which helps the mixer find a beverage without knowing its name. Because this book is older, some of the recipes call for ingredients no longer available or difficult to find. Also included is a wine guide, though the information may be out of date. Though it was written 50 years ago, Duffy's call to elevate the craft of bartending remains relevant today.

Outstanding introductory text useful even to practitioners
Highly recommended even for seasoned IP litigators; although this is a casebook, it has very thoughtful notes reminiscent of Hart & Wechsler's Fed. Courts casebook.

Best source on the subject: bar none!
I found this book to be an engaging and insightful read. The range of essays are both wide and informitive. In particualr, I was taken by Bruce Dawson's essay "Better than a few Squirrels" to be the best. Help me the most towards my BA. If this topic is any interest to you: BUY THIS BOOK! You won't regret it.
