Hopefully we will continue to hear from The Key West Co-op. These insightful writers capture the essence of what is wacky and wonderful about Key West.

I am one the the group of 12 who cooperatively wrote and published this book of south Florida short stories. Living in what some call "paradise" produces a unique life experience which we want to share with those living more traditional lifestyles. You'll enjoy a tropical getaway with each story. Read them slowly, they'll last a long time in your memory.

A sweet little rendition of the first Randy Travis Christmas episode with lovely drawings. But the best thing, for those of us who adore "Andrew", is that they replaced "Adam" with "Andrew".

This is a great read. Kevin Williamson has written a fantastic screenplay and now his work is a Demension film. This book has the script, an intro from Wes Craven, a foward by Kevin Williamson, the cast and crew, and photos of Scream 2. This is a great book. I recomend it!

YO,THIS BOOK WAS PHAT!THE MOVIE WAS BUTTER. I AM A NATURAL SCREAM MANIAC. I MEAN I'VE WATCHED THIS MOVIE MILLIONS OF TIMES AND I KNOW ALMOST EVERY LINE. I JUST STARTED READING THE BOOK LAST NIGHT FOR THE THIRD TIME! I HAVE THE COSTUME AND EVERYTHING. MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IS STU ONE OF THE KILLERS.(MATTHEW LILLARD) YOU ARE DA BOMB! I THINK SCREAM 2 COULD OF BEEN BETTER IF MATTHEW LILLARD WAS IN IT. HE WAS ONLY IN IT FOR A FEW SECONDS. I HOPE IN SCREAM 3 HE COMES BACK FOR ONE MORE SCARE!!!!!

SCREAMINGLY, JOHN HORVATH BRIDGEPORT,CT. P.S. NEVE CAMPBELL IS THE HOTTTTTTEST BABE ON THE PLANET!!!!!

OK, I haven't read the book yet, but I've seen the movie at least 15 times, the sequel about the same, and the third one at least 30! But I know this much from experience - if you've seen the movie before you've read the book, chances are the book gets boring. But since I'm addicted to scary movies (especially the Scream's), I'll read it anyway, and if it's from the movie then I know it'll be good!! Anything from Kevin Williamson and Wes Craven are!!

I watched Scream a couple of times, before. After reading this book, I wanted to go out and rent Scream again. In fact, I will be purchasing the DVD. It got me really excited in every scene, and every word spoken in the movie.

This biography is great for the reader interested in the career and life of Kevin williamson . If you are interested in him or any of his movies this is the book for you .

This biography is a very informative take on his life and career . It also has information on the actors and actresses he's worked with . I found it a good book , for the reader interested in this phenomonal screenwriter , director and producer .

I realy liked this book but i thought the scenes with dawson and joey got a bit boring but i loved the parts with pacy and jen they were the best and the ending was good too. I think this book is likeable becouse it has many themes.

I loved this book cause I am a Dawson's Creek fan.It was a very good book. It gives good detels. I could even hear the characters realy talking. They made it seam so real. I realy liked it so much it made me want to go buy the other books that where also great.I wish they would make more books though.

This book was great. Even though I love the show and it really wouldn't matter to me if it was good or bad, I still think that it was sensational. I couldn't put it down when I started reading it.The story had alot of twists to it,so anyone can enjoy it. If you truly ARE a Dawsons Creek fan, then this book is a must. Buy it while it last. And trust me, you will want to read it over and over again.

I would agree that this is a very good book in terms of presenting what happened in the 19th century Atlantic economy. I do have one critical observation. The authors blame the collapse of globalization on the lobbying of particular industries; thus setting up the argument that general gains from trade were lost to special interests. This is in accord with their belief that globalization is a good thing. As an economist working on these issues for many years, with experience in government as well as academics and the private sector, I have to disagree. Clearly, governments need to rally constituents to support policies. Yet, from our own Alexander Hamilton to Germany's Otto von Bismarck, and a host of others, states had a strategic vision of what was in the national interest for which they sought support. This is the origin of the "iron and wheat" alliances that O'Rourke and Williamson credit with undoing "free trade" on the continent. This was a strategy of national economic development and strategic independence under which the major powers were able to successfully increase their economic growth rates. For evidence of this I would recommend Paul Bairoch's book Economics and World History (Univ. of Chicago, 1993). As the great economic thinker Joseph Schumpeter observed "the consistent support given by the American people to protectionist policies...is accounted for not by any love for or domination by big business, but by a fervant wish to build and keep a world of their own and to be rid of all the vicissitudes of the rest of the world." This is true of most people, most places---which is why the current fad of globalization will not last either.

I am an economist working on globalization issues, interested in history and economic history. I found this book an excellent study that puts globalization discussion in historical (19th century) context, a period of large international capital flows and even larger human capital flows. Th study uses data on these mass movements in production factors to empirically test/uses the standard international trade Heckscher Olin model on income and factor price distribution in trade. It shows that these mass movements had indeed measurable effects on income distribution following some of the model predictions. Problems of globalization in economic terms are indeed linked to the income effects of several groups in the economy following the opening up to increasing trade, investment and migration flows. All too often these discussions are marred by lack of data and lack of historical awareness, and i found this study filling a real gap. It surely will be contested but i found the analysis interesting and well-written. Recommended!

This book is not an easy read. Especially if you are not interested in economics and lack basic economics terminologies, you'll certainly have difficulties appreciating this book the way it should be. It is, however, an tremendously insightful story of the evolution and devolution of globalizm in the world in the late 19th century and early 20th century. It, in rigorous details, shows how an earlier period of globalization in the late 19th century was self-destructed by the very same forces that established it as a significant force in the global economic system. It reflects how easy it is to lose the benefits of economic globalism which we today often take for granted.

This may well be the best book RAND has ever produced--certainly the best I have ever seen or reviewed. An edited work, it brings together thirty-one authorities and integrates very high-quality editing, photography, and references. It even has an index.

As one who regards the collection of imagery as a supporting event, in support of the creation of geospatially-based all-source databases and integrated analysis, I would observe that this book must be regarded as skewed toward policies and capabilities related to commercial imagery collection. It does not address the many vital topics having to do with geospatial databases, the integration of diverse sources of geospatial imagery including Russian military maps and classified digital terrain elevation data, or the integrating of imagery into the all-source analysis process.

Commercial imagery is running roughly twelve years behind the early projections on both its adoption and its gross revenue potential. This is in large part because of a consistent prejudice against commercial sourcing by the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Defense Mapping Agency (now the National Imagery and Mapping Agency). There are implications to this on-going negativity for the business marketplace--the cost of commercial imagery is still much higher than it need be, simply because the government is as yet unwilling to recognize that it should spend billions on acquiring commercial source imagery, not on building even more useless secret imagery satellites.

I recommend this book strongly, both for commanders who would like to exercise some control over national imagery collection policies and investments; and for business leaders who might wish to contemplate how the taxpayer dollar could be better spent in support of generic commercial imagery capabilities whose fruits can be easily shared with the private sector and especially non-governmental organization.

The editors and the authors of this book have excelled. I can find nothing to criticize--indeed, I expect the editors to get to work immediately on a follow-on book that brings together different authorities and focuses on the database and analysis side of the matter.

Review provided by Glenn Lethm, Managing Editor SpatialNews.com & WirelessDevnet.com -- This joint publication of RAND and the ASPRS takes a technological and political view in an effort to help readers better understand the political, security, and market implications of today's commercial satellites. The book will satisfy readers from government, industry, NGO's, and academia looking for answers that explain both the benefits and risks associated with using remotely sensed data acquired from a number of commercial observation systems.

It is apparent that the publication was put together with a great deal of support from the commerical agencies responsible for maintaining the observation systems mentioned in the book, as well as from government agencies around the world. The book kicks off with a detailed examination of policies and issues associated with the development of commercial remote sensing programs. A number of detailed examples of remote sensing applications to international problems are presented along with a section dedicated to emerging International political issues faced by policy makers.

Readers should take away a good overview of who the traditional and new users of remotely sensed data are as well as an understanding of uses and applications of the data.

If any chapter is not to be skipped over, it's section 2 dealing with National remote sensing policies. An excellent historical account of national policies since the Cold War years covers the military and civilian policies of the US, Canadian, Russian, Japanese, French, Middle East, and India governments. Excellent examples of applications are offered up, as are detailed technical specifications of each nation's observation systems.

Appendices included with the title are not too lengthy and provide a list of abbreviations, bibliography, sample images, and not to be missed, a very interesting time line detailing the past, present, and future of the medium and high-resolution satellite world. About the only thing I could have asked for in this publication would be more example images included in the text. Students of geo-spatial and remote sensing courses, academics, researchers, government, and commercial agencies needing a primer on commerical observation systems and Satellite imagery will find this a very useful resource - this one will be a valued resource on your bookshelf for years to come.

An excellent introduction to "new Scottish writing" this collection features one short story each from Irvine Welsh (Filth, Trainspotting, Ecstacy Club, Maribou Stork Nightmare), Alan Warner (Morvern Callar, These Demented Lands,The Sopranos), Gordon Legge (The Shoe, In Between Talking About the Football), James Meek (Drivetime), Laura Hird, and Paul Reekie. Gordon Legge's "Pop Life" is a gruffly tender portrait of three friends who've grown up and apart. Alan Warner's "After the Vision" is typically long on tone and atmosphere as it follows a stranded raver trying to find a place to sleep until the morning train. James Meek's "Brown Pint of Courage" amusingly depicts a trio of parking ticket writers who blow off their job. Paul Reekie's "The Submission" was perhaps the lesser of the six stories, written as a long rambling letter to a friend. The most "sexy" story is by the lone female entrant, Laura Hird, whose "The Dilating Pupil" is about a middle-aged teacher and a female student who have designs on each other which are derailed in a night of booze and drugs. Irvine Welsh's "The Rosewell Incident" is the shallowest, but possibly funniest read of the lot. It throws together alien abduction and "lads" in an unholy alliance to rule the world. A bit silly but fun. The collection as a whole is well worth checking out if you want to see what the Scottish kids are up to.
