Character Design for Mobile Devices
Lawrence Wright (NFGMan)
Focal Press
, 2006
Deceptive title, but still a good book
Judging by the cover of this book, which features numerous sprites from old 8 & 16-bit consoles, it's hard to tell what this has to do with character design or mobile devices. In actuality, "mobile devices" has more to do with old portable gaming systems than cell ...
Ed Ruscha: Catalogue Raisonne of the Paintings

Dave Hickey
, ...
Steidl The Masters
, 2007
Ed Ruscha, one of the most influential artists working today, and one of the great West Coast Pop artists, didn't start out as a painter. It was under the influence of teachers including Robert Irwin, Richards Ruben and Emerson Woelffer that he gave up his original goal of becoming a commercial artist to focus on fine art. This third volume in the ...
Remembering Satan: A Tragic Case of Recovered Memory
Lawrence Wright
Vintage
, 1995
Remembering Satan
I think this book showed how one's mind can be influenced to remember this which perhaps never occurred. The uncertain way in which the main character spoke let me realize, that at first and maybe even finally he did not believe he had committed the acts attributed to ...
In the New World
Lawrence Wright
Vintage
, 1989
This was a good book.
Although I had to read this book for school, I found it to be suprisingly good. I would reccomend this book.

Clean and Decent: The Fascinating History of the Bathroom and the Water-Closet
Lawrence Wright
Penguin Global
, 2005
Completely Hygienic!
Who would have thought there was so much to learn about toilets and bathroom culture? This is a great primer for those who wonder just how people did bathe and perform 'ablutions' before the days of indoor plumbing and water-trapped toilets for all (or at least those ...
The Looming Tower: Al Qaeda and the Road to 9/11 (Vintage)
Lawrence Wright
Vintage
, 2007
Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to Insanity
Mr. Wright has done an outstanding job of connecting the dots from the first hints of Islamic terrorism to the catastrophic events of 9/11. The book is very readable and gives a clear understanding of this small group of disenfranchised, Middle-Eastern religious ...

This book is a succinct introduction to the orienting of attention. Richard Wright and Lawrence Ward describe the covert orienting literature clearly and concisely, illustrating it with numerous high-quality images, specifically designed to make the challenging theoretical concepts very accessible.

Twins: And What They Tell Us About Who We Are
Lawrence Wright
Wiley
, 1999
Everyone should read this book.
An open-minded reading of this book will change the way you think about yourself and everyone you know. It's not just about identical twins, but about all of us, and what makes us who we are. I've read many books about twin research, and this is the best.
Conflicted Boundaries in Wisdom And Apocalypticism (Symposium Series (Society of Biblical Literature)) ...
Society of Biblical Literature
, 2005
The notion that wisdom and apocalypticism represent fundamentally different and mutually exclusive categories of genre and worldview in early Jewish and Christian literature persists in current scholarship. The essays in this volume, the work of the Wisdom and Apocalypticism Group of the Society of Biblical Literature, challenge that generally ...

Warm & Snug: The History of the Bed (Sutton History Classics)
Lawrence Wright
The History Press
, 2004
Light and comforting as a featherbed
Though it seems to have been well researched, this is not a scholarly work, at least not the usual kind. It is, rather, an informative, offbeat, and (at least to my mind) very funny account of humankind's efforts over the centuries to get a decent night's sleep. The ...
God's Favorite: A Novel
Lawrence Wright
Simon & Schuster
, 2000
Riveting Reading.
An utterly arresting blend of fact and fiction, "God's Favorite" thrusts the reader into the bloody maelstrom of Panama under Noriega. The book is incredibly accessible, even entertaining, but it never loses its intent to put you into the heart of the situation, ...
