Harper Paperbacks
, 2003
It may ruin literature for you unless you can both appreciate your opinion and the authors.
Most people I encounter, after reading this book, complain that it is pushing a single opinion about the meaning of a story. That's not the case. While it does convey the language that people use to communicate, since that is what literature is supposed to do, it ...

Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning
Jonah Goldberg
Doubleday
, 2008
Not What You Think It's Going To Be
So many people, to include certain friends of mine, are all too willing to write this book off as just one more salvo from the Republican noise machine without ever bothering to read it. Goldberg's title is perhaps unfortunate in this regard, as it leaves one with the ...

Excellent course, Excellent book
I took Systems Physiology from Widmaier (the author of this book) and the course was phenomenal. The book served as an excellent reference and an exciting read. The only real downside to the book is there is so much interesting information that it is easy to get ...

The Eye of the World (The Wheel of Time, Book 1)
Robert Jordan
Tor Fantasy
, 1990
If you haven't read this series, read it!!
I won't really go into the plot summary of this book, as I think it will be virtually impossible for me to keep this review reasonably short.=) It would be hard for me to give that summary and not want to add spoilers from later books, because things that occur in The ...
