Force

Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions

Dan Ariely

HarperCollins, 2008

Reality is absolutely relative.
At first glance, the title of Dan Ariely's book seems to be an oxymoron. (It certainly catches one's attention.) Can irrational thought and/or behavior be predicted? Perhaps if it is repetitive? (The judgment and behavior of at least some people can be repetitive and ...

The Force Unleashed (Star Wars)

Sean Williams

Del Rey, 2008

Surprisingly great!
I just finished this book and I'm so sorry it's over! This was the first book in a long time (and I'm a passionate reader) that has really kept me hooked from beginning to end. Yes, parts of it absolutely read like a video game, but the characterization is strong and ...

Force Unleashed Campaign Guide (Star Wars Roleplaying Game Supplement)

Sterling Hershey, Owen K.C. Stephens, ...

Wizards of the Coast, 2008

Better than the videogame, a fraction of the cost
Can't really go wrong here. WoTC did it again with this one, possibly better than their recent kotor supplement (comes down to a matter of taste really). I shall list the new features for your reading pleasure, in hopes that you purchase this product and perpetuate the ...

The Field Updated Ed: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe

Lynne Mctaggart

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

Underpinning the future
If you are interested in the future (and we all should be) read this book. It is one of those books that makes you realise that everything you were ever taught at school, and a lot of what you learned after school, was pretty much a waste of time, because life is ...

The Last Oracle: A Novel (Sigma Force)

James Rollins

William Morrow, 2008

The Last Oracle
I've read all of James Rollins books and his Sigma Force story line is very enjoyable and a fun read

Power vs. Force: The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior

David R. Hawkins

Lightness of Being: Mass, Ether, and the Unification of Forces

Frank Wilczek

Basic Books, 2008

A must read for physics buffs
Anyone with more than just a passive interest in physics and the nature of the universe will enjoy this book. The title caught my attention, and the first chapter drew me in. Before I realized an afternoon had passed, I had finished the book in a single sitting and ...

The Mind and the Brain: Neuroplasticity and the Power of Mental Force

Jeffrey M. Schwartz, Sharon Begley

Harper Perennial, 2003

A fascinating exploration of mindfulness and neuroplasticity
This book was probably the most fascinating book I read about neuroscience and that's saying something since I find all of them fascinating. In this book the author explains neuroplasticity and how it continues to work in the brains of an adult as well as a child. The ...

Thomson/West, 2006

West's Business Law Alternate Edition
The product in itself was exactly what I needed. I am taking a Business Law class as part of my curriculum in Business Administration. I have found the the book is very informative but a little dry in reading. I was pleased with the speed of how the product was ...

Pride and Prejudice (Bantam Classics)

Jane Austen

Bantam Classics, 1983

My Favorite Book
Jane Austen's classic, Pride and Prejudice, is perhaps my favorite book of all time. Miss Austen's trademark wit and whimsy style of writing is appealing to readers of all ages, even to a modern teen like me. I find something, many things, to relate to within the main ...

Nauti Boy (The Nauti Trilogy, Book 1)

Lora Leigh

Berkley Trade, 2007

A MUST READ!
I disagree with the negative reviews. This was a GREAT book!!! You could really feel the love between Rowdy and Kelly. I couldn't put the book down. I read it in just a few hours. YOU MUST read this book before Nauti Nights!! The sex scenes were very erotic. Rowdy is a ...
