Undervalued as a professional resource and ARE study guide
Please dont let this simple architectural graphic resource book that has been around now for decades be viewed as unworthy of your time, because it certainly has been beneficial as part of the resoureces needed for me to pass the ARE's and for a quick review in my ...
The Cambridge Illustrated History of China (Cambridge Illustrated Histories)
Patricia Buckley Ebrey
Cambridge University Press

An interesting perspective on Chinese history
I'm a Chinese living in China. Because of politicized history accounts in China after 1949 I have little interest in official history books in Chinese. But I like this book very much; for me it provides a totally new perspective on the evolution of our culture, peoples ...

Easy understand and get to the point
Interpretation of codes sometime is confusing. With the picture to explain, it is much easier to understand than just read the words. A picture is better than a thousand words!
The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II
Iris Chang
Penguin (Non-Classics)
, 1998
Shocking, Heartbreaking, but Necessary
It astounds me that so few people know about the horrific events in China, and particularly Nanking, during WWII. This book can change that. No one can read the work without coming away with a new understanding of how easily human nature can be twisted to doing the ...

Easy to use and read and understand

The Tao of Leadership: Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching Adapted for a New Age
John Heider
Humanics Publishing Group
, 2005
Life Changing
This is perhaps one of the best 5 books I've ever read. Unlike typical leadership books, this one reads like a poem on each page. A short poem, rich with meaning that resonates as true. An example - the leader's job is not to direct, but to be as quiet as a guest. ...
Architectural Graphics
Francis D. K. Ching
Wiley
, 2002
Architectural Graphics, et al - excellent books, DECEPTIVE advertising
Get your act together Amazon or Wiley (I suspect Wiley) !!! (especially, note my final paragraph below) 1. This is NOT a hardback. 2. The "et al" is because this is NOT a single volume as suggested by the single ISBN 0471738263, but a COLLECTION of 3 PAPERBACKS ...
