Dancing with Life: Buddhist Insights for Finding Meaning and Joy in the Face of Suffering
Phillip Moffitt

Rodale Books, 2008

A Different Kind of Dharma Book
Most of the Dharma books that I've read fall into two categories: lightweight new-age fluff or heavily-footnoted scholarship. This book avoids both extremes. It's very compactly written, with no apparent filler. (If anything, I think he is too brief in touching on ...
  
  











  



  
Dancing: The Pleasure, Power, and Art of Movement
Gerald Jonas

Harry N. Abrams, 1998

Good book
The book was fine. It was for Wayne State University's DNC 1000 course. I found the book to be easy reading and informative. It gives you insight on different dance forms from around the world and gives you a fuller appreciation of dance as an art. :-) Thanks Amazon!

Stomp your feet!!!
What a treat to buy this for a friend's baby. My youngest child LOVED this book because as others have pointed out, it is fantastic! Just reading the words results in a great rhyme and makes you dance. You can't help it. Babies love it, toddlers love it, and parents ...
  
  











  



  
The World Is Flat 3.0: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century
Thomas L. Friedman

Picador, 2007

Motivation at its Finest
"Flat" is not self-help, but as far as motivational books go it's probably the most effective. It's a wake up call to all Americans: we need to stay extremly competative on a global scale because other countries are starving for success. Reread the last sentance, look ...

Current Issues and Enduring Questions: A Guide to Critical Thinking and Argument, with Readings
Sylvan Barnet, Hugo Bedau

Bedford/St. Martin's, 2007

Good intro text; watch out for edition number
Good intro to the principles of critical thinking. It was a little weird for me to have this book assigned in grad school; I remember it from my daughter's college freshman year. New editions keep the readings current, but that means you have to pay attention to the ...
  
  











  



  
Ways of Reading: An Anthology for Writers
David Bartholomae, Anthony Petrosky

Bedford/St. Martin's, 2004

Challenging, yet rewarding read
I had to read this book for my upper division journalism class this fall and found it to be one of the best books that we used in the course. The editors have tried to collect well-written, intelligent documentaries that challenge traditional connections between words ...
