great text
I took a course in Thermo as an undergrad, but I basically just learned how to solve the textbook problems to the point where I was able to pass the tests, but I never got a good intuitive understanding of the subject. My major was EE so one term of Thermo was a ...

On War (Oxford World's Classics)

Oxford University Press, USA

Slog
On War is a great book and had Civil War Generals followed its advice, the war would have probably been over much sooner and not have lasted so long. If you like military history, this is a must read.

The Full Tilt Poker Strategy Guide: Tournament Edition

Grand Central Publishing
, 2007
Please don't read this book
In the world of poker literature, no limit hold em advice dries up and becomes useless pretty quickly these days. One year after its release, this underrated and underread book still holds advice that has yet to find its way into most tournaments. Almost every chapter ...

Required reading for software developers
If George Santayana were to recommend a security book, it would certainly be 19 Deadly Sins of Software Security. Santayana is the poet-philosopher widely known for saying, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." For far too long, software ...

Loved this book
A no-nonsense approach that is all about positive parenting. Who wouldn't rather use a "carrot" than a "stick"? Gave me lots to think about. Will be especially helpful with my one daughter who is difficult and feels every criticism go right to her heart.
War in European History
Michael Howard
Oxford University Press, USA
, 2001
Essential Reading
A friend of mine recommended this book to me. At the time it was required reading at West Point and it very well may still be. No other book displays the history of war in Europe in such a concise and complete way. It also shows how the nations of Europe developed ...
Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics, Appendices
Michael J. Moran
,
Howard N. Shapiro
Wiley
, 2007
Appendices
This book is the exact copy of the Appendices in the textbook. It is useful to have something that is lighter than the textbook, and it also allows you to look at tables and pages on the book at the same time. It is, however, not necessary

Wonderful, Concise, & Thematically Organized Reference Book!
I enjoyed reading this one-volume survey of the events of the 20th century, whose stated editorial objective was to provide a literate and understandable survey of the panorama of change and tumult that so characterized these last hundred years. Given these very real ...

Walter Benjamin: Selected Writings, Volume 4, 1938-1940
Walter Benjamin
Belknap Press
, 2006
"Every line we succeed in publishing today...is a victory wrested from the powers of darkness." So wrote Walter Benjamin in January 1940. Not long afterward, he himself would fall prey to those powers, a victim of suicide following a failed attempt to flee the Nazis. However insistently the idea of catastrophe hangs over Benjamin's writings in the ...
