This book was written to meet the needs of the market place where some of those unique horse problems occur. This book will help you deal with problems dealing with laws, taxes, and solving them in a straightford way.

Avoiding legal and tax problems are important aspects of every horse business. This book, written by an attorney with input from many horsepersons, trainers, attorneys, equine instructors and CPAs, fully explains what a horse business must do to ensure that their business is not ruled a hobby. He fully explains recordkeeping, tax laws, legal considerations including liability and insurance, contracts and even estate planning. Sample forms for sales, leases, breeding and syndications are included. I can't recommend strongly enough that you obtain a copy of this book if you have or wish to start a horse business. You can't afford to run your business or talk to the IRS without this information.

This writer speaks from 50 years of experience and it shows. I love his common sense approach to working with the wood and letting its beauty show. I prefer his simple lines approach with some caracter. He believes in slightly rounded corners so the pieces seem friendly and warm on their own. I love his use of slight curves versis only just straight lines. His instructions are ideal for us who are doing things by ourselves because that is the way he does it also. Over the years he has developed lots of helpers that work and make tasks not only possible, but easy. He is a thinker and obviously enjoys taking the time to let the project be designed to be all it can be to please and delight the eye. He just makes sense and you know he knows what he is doing. When he tells you something, you know you need to listen. I found this book in the library and could have photocopied any part I wanted on my copier. However, this is a keeper for "fatherly advise" when ever I get to a step beyond what I have done before.

A graduate of Oral Roberts University, Kenneth Wood provides a clearly practical exposition on the process we can pursue to discover and follow our purpose in life. What 7 Steps for Highly Effective People is for the traditional business person, In Search of Purpose is for those seeking to grasp a greater understanding for their destiny.

This book also provides clear guidance for those seeking to either mentor or be mentored.

An excellent book for college graduates or young professionals!

Kenneth Josephson's Retrospective is a phenomenal view of life through the artistic eye of black and white photography. Josephson's pictures-within-pictures are interesting and fresh, a new take on a theme that others have tried, but not mastered as well as Josephson. If you like black and white photography, this book is a must. I saw the exhibit at the Whitney in NYC, and purchased the book afterwards. Unlike some photography books, where the pages don't capture the magic imparted by the prints when seen in person, this one does -- beautifully.

This collection of poetry has me breathless! The depth of emotion in these poems is endless. So much beauty is presented here it is virtually indescribable. I can only say that any poetry lover needs this book, and anyone interested in beautiful writing should truly consider investing in this book. You do not have to be a fan of poetry to fall for this poet, his words are like stories that engulf you in its tale, never letting go! Many nights I have found myself still immersed in a world of his creation long after I had closed the book.

To put it simply: Kenneth Wood is an amazing poet, a timeless visionary, and most importantly, an epic storyteller!

Buy this book.

I'm almost at a loss for words when I try to find a way to review this book! Epic, grandiose, Mesmerizing...three simple yet powerful words that could easily accompany this book.

It goes without saying that indeterminate amounts of heart, mind, soul, and integrity went into the creation of this book, from cover to cover. While reading this book the most predominate emotion I feel is sheer amazement. Simply put, this man writes intense, amazing heartfelt poetry! And more than that, he has the ability to create stories and new worlds' for the readers, creating a vivid, welcoming escape to the dreary, monotonous drone of everyday life.

This book will stay at my bedside when sleep eludes me, and when the nighttime birds do not sing me to sleep, these words will guide me to a place of deep peace. This is a guarantee.

Again, I am trying to find words to explain something virtually beyond words of praise. This is an ocean of thought, in which you'll gladly drown.

Pen on, my friend, pen on...

This book reminds me of one of my favorite authors'...Stephen Crane! He is most notably known for his "Red Badge of Courage" book, but he wrote some wonderful, alluring poetry.

There are about 200 pages in this book and every page is a wonderful read. He is mainly a free verse poet, straying from the typical rhyming scheme we see in a lot of poetry these days, but he is not above writing this kind of poetry. Most of the rhyming poems are short with a lot of punch, or they come in free form style without structure and a fast flow, and it's great. It reminds me of rap style, which is rare in poetry. I could see a lot of these poems going over well in poetry slams.

Another great thing about the book is it is broken up into sections and each section ends with a long epic-style poem at least 3 pages long. The first sections seems to be the lighthearted section where he seems to touch upon love and hope, and other things of that nature.

The second section is the darker section, with poems written in a manner to express sadness and despair, even psychosis!

The third section reads like a story and I believe this is what the author intended it to do. There are two sub-sections aptly name "The End" (section 1) and "The Beginning" (section 2). It starts with a foreword type statement, a prelude if you will, and into the first poem which is a haunting plea written to himself called "A Letter From Prison" and that sets a sad tone of despair. Still, as the reader progresses through the pages you find yourself intrigued as to where he is going, and when your reach the end you can actually feel the hope and love withing his words! You will strain to hold tears back after reading the final poem!

All in all, I could not find one thing wrong with this book! Fans of poetry will LOVE this book, and I cannot stress that more. For those who do not like poetry may want to give this a try, you've never read poetry like this! Kenneth is a great poet and I hope he gets the recognition he deserves!

If you buy this book, you should know what you are getting. The examples are good, the problems are solid and challenging, and the building code (the UBC) is integrated seamlessly into the course of the text. For timber design, this book is essential.

This book was helpful once I went onto a design lab, but sometimes the examples were so involved that I got lost in all the numbers.

After studying the book for six months, I think the material in the book is very good. I am disappointed, and surprised, that the binding is coming apart.

This is probably the greatest play ever written for RADIO! It's a medium rarely thought of for such things today, and theater people repeatedly come a cropper in trying to put it on the stage. I've seen several stage productions and one TV version, and the piece simply does not work that way. Dylan Thomas takes the LISTENER inside the characters' dreams and thoughts. Once they are concretized or thingified on a stage or screen, they are destroyed. Don't read it. Close your eyes and LISTEN. It's magnificent - funny, sweet, moving.

I first heard this recording over 30 years ago while an undergraduate student. I was stunned. It is the full theatrical experience on tape -- Dylan Thomas wrote the play for voices alone, and this recording was made with the actors simply sitting on folding chairs while delivering the lines. You can note some similarities with both Spoon River Anthology and Our Town, but Under Milk Wood contains more humor and really a more complete picture of the people and the subject town than either of those. I strongly recommend it.

On November 7th, Dylan Thomas collapsed in his hotel room. On the 9th, he died. This was only a few days after the final performance of "Under Milk Wood", a special play with no acting but voices, the sort of work Thomas believed would replace the poetic impulse he feared had dried up. Although believed by many to be unfinished, "Under Milk Wood" seems perfect as it is. A journey through the events of a single day in a small town, "Under Milk Wood" is a must for Dylan Thomas fans, but also would be appreciated by fans of Garrison Keillor and other radio-storytellers. The written text cannot compare with the lively, laughter-ridden performance. Listen to the real thing, and you will, as Dylan Thomas instructed his actors, "love the words."

This book was written by one of the best in the cardiac pacing field. The only problem is his dry and wordy compilation of cardiac pacing.

I purchased this book to assist me in cardiovascular schooling and found it to be a great book for gaining an understanding of the principles of pacemaker therapy. At times though, the text is a bit wordy and dry. However, I find it very useful for reading up on anything from the indications for both temporary and permament devices to post-implantation evaluation, complications, and interventions. Unfortunately, with the rapidly changing world of pacemaker therapy, this book may soon find itself obsolete. Hope for an updated edition.

It is about diagnosis of cardiac diseases with cardiac pacing

Wanting tips on setting up a business plan I purchased this book hoping to glean a few useful pointers. After reviewing for few minutes this badly reproduced (on a poor quality copier; yes really) pages and forms I was disappointed. It has many forms that appear to have been produced prior to the computer age, which is humorous in that with the purchase of this "book" you are on the author's mailing list for updates. One has to wonder what the "updates" would include. As for the text it's self, I have seen better-organized and more comprehensive reports from high school students. Instead of purchasing this book, spend a few hours on the web researching the subjects of interest. It will have been time better spent and money not wasted.

I really enjoyed the reading untill I find that: Hector(Rigel)is killed in "the fleshy part of the neck"(p.76). This stars is actually located in the left knee(p132-231). The stars presented in the neck is Heka. It is really unfortunated that the "arche-type" is so confuselly handled.
