This book put into words and examples things I had been discovering with my own daughter
I loved this book! It really is amazing to bring everything back to Love versus Fear and being present with your child. It sounds so easy, but most people I observe don't do it regularly and well- even "great parents"! It has been huge learning to just be there for my ...

Truth and Consequences: Special Comments on the Bush Administration's War on American Values
Keith Olbermann
Random House
, 2007
A truly revealing and excellent book
Certainly, those persons who spend their days as apologists for the Bush Administration, with their heads firmly buried in the sand, will list out all the reasons why this book is owned by the democratic party, and they'll shriek out the usual evangelistic defenses of ...

Why Popcorn Costs So Much at the Movies: And Other Pricing Puzzles
Richard B. McKenzie
Springer
, 2008
Economics that's no dismal science!

Culture's Consequences: Comparing Values, Behaviors, Institutions and Organizations Across Nations
Geert Hofstede
Sage Publications, Inc
, 2003
Very valueable, if taken as Hofstede has meant it

A Great Volume 2, a MUST READ
This book should get 10 stars! I feel adoptive parents everywhere should read this book and Vol 1 with the same title, as a prerequisite to adoption. I felt let down by our agency ( although it's not their personal fault) almost 2 years after our first adoption when ...

William R. Koenig
About Him

It is true!
Amazing! I live in Vancouver, WA where we never see Tornadoes. The last one was in 1972, over 35 years ago! I was reading this book two days ago and noticed in the news President Bush just arrived in Israel and was urging Israel and the PLO to come to a "peace ...
The Consequences of Ideas: Understanding the Concepts that Shaped Our World
R. C. Sproul
Crossway Books
, 2000
Finally something that makes sense
I have tired to make sense of this subject several times. My eyes usual cross about the time the author begins talking about reality and non-reality. THIS BOOK makes sense of all of that. If you are like me, you know you should have a working knowledge of philosophy ...
