Magic in the Web: Action and Language in Othello
Published in Hardcover by Greenwood Publishing Group (1977)
Author: Robert Bechtold Heilman
Amazon base price: $74.95
Average review score:

Great for Research Papers
I found this book incredibly useful for a recent research paper I had to complete on Shakespeare's Othello. It details the themes, imagery, and characters of Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, Othello. You may also want to check out A.C. Bradley's Shakespearean Tragedy and Bloom's Iago, both wonderful literary criticisms with some focus on Othello.

This is a very well-informed and in-depth technical referenc
Unlike many books of this genre, Managing Windows NT server 4.0 is a well thought out analysis of each component of Windows NT server and how they interrelate. Rather than skim the surface, this book plunges head-first into the depths of the operating system to increase the reader's understanding of Microsoft's flagship product.

Examples of this include the chapter on Disk Administrator, which stands out as a sterling example of technical reference. Clear, concise and revealing, it is a pleasure to read.

The command-line technical reference is also stunning in its depth, and often reveals more items than digging through the manuals.

In all, an excellent volume.


Marbury V. Madison and Judicial Review
Published in Hardcover by Univ Pr of Kansas (1989)
Author: Robert Lowry Clinton
Amazon base price: $40.00
Used price: $62.35
Average review score:

Modern Judicial Review?
Clinton's study of the origins of judicial review is very interesting despite some major weaknesses. His attempt to understand what the Framers of the Constitution believed judicial review to be would be much stronger with more detail to the controversies raging within states just after ratification about judicial review. This is because he depends heavily upon his assertion that Marbury was consistent with the generally understood meaning of judicial review that the Framers shared. If there was no generally understood meaning about judicial review, then his hypothesis suffers a major blow.

Appreciation for local history.
I brought this book last winter. I have read it several times since. I have to admit I am biased, I am quite familiar with the area Mr. Williams wrote about. I have brought several copies for family members. Mr. Williams did an excellent job describing the history of the area and in doing so makes the reader realize it is our responsibility to keep the past from disappearing. Every developer and real estate agent should be forced to read it. Then maybe, they wouldn't be so eager to destroy, what history has left behind for us. Mr. Williams brought old buildings and their inhabitants back to life.

An exciting way to learn MR imaging of the brain
This is an excellent collection of high quality MR images of the brain, each accompanied by a brief clinical history, radiologist's findings, a discussion, and a list of suggested reading. The 100 topics cover a vast area of clinical neurology, from common disorders to the uncommon and the rare. The presentation in the form of a teaching file gives the reader the opportunity to study the cases in an interactive way. As a practicing neurologist, I found going through the pages of this book an enjoyable, and of course, a profitable experience. I have no doubt that all those interested in clinical neurology, from undergraduates and postgraduates to practicing clinicians will find this book an exciting way to learn MR imaging of the brain and sharpen their clinical acumen.

Thoughtfully explored
When perusing this volume, you will be struck by how skillfully the author manages to strike a balance between letters and his own interpretation. You are taken on a journey of Roethke's poetic process; the text explores the why and how of Roethke's work in a subtle yet understanding way. This is a good read for those who wish to learn more about the private mind behind Roethke's published writing, and those who wish to gain a better appreciation of how one literary mind shapes and guides another.

The best book ever written on the KGB
I occasionally teach Soviet KGB History. I tell my students that I am pretty much a poor substitute for this book, and I make them read it.

There is no better book on KGB history.
