America: A Narrative History (6th Edition, Volume One)
George Brown Tindall
,
David E. Shi
W. W. Norton & Co Inc, 2003
outstanding
I first encountered the Tindall/Shi American history books while a student in college. As a history major, I found that it was almost a requirement for history books to be boring. That is just not the case with this one. I would be lying if I said that there weren't ...

The Amazing Guide to Western Music (7th)
This book and the study and listening guide are a great combination. The material is structured for the best learning, and it does so in as concise a manner as one can have with thousands of years of music to cover. Anyone who loves music would find the book and ...
The Norton Anthology of English Literature, Vol. 1
W W Norton & Co Inc (Np), 1999
The heart of English Literature
In graduate school I read and reread this work, studied and re- studied it. As it contains many the major masterpieces ( or excerpts of them) of English Literature it is a work which lends itself to this kind of reading and rereading. The introductions to each ...

Workouts in Intermediate Microeconomics
Theodore C. Bergstrom
W W Norton & Co Inc (Np), 2006
Makes you think
This is an excellent workbook to accompany Varian's Intermediate Microeconomics. The reviewers who claim that there are numerous mistakes have clearly done many of the problems incorrectly. In the 5 years that I have used this book, I have found a very small number of ...
Earth Structure: An Introduction to Structural Geology and Tectonics
Ben A. Van Der Pluijm
,
Stephen Marshak
W W Norton & Co Inc (Np), 2003
Difficult Book for Undergraduates with no experience
The book is an excellent book for advanced students of structural geology and faculty. The book may be a bit too fast for beginners. I personally like the book because i have a little background in structural geology. But I know undergraduate students who have ...
Physics: Volume 1
Hans C. Ohanian
W W Norton & Co Inc (Np), 1985
Highly Recommended!
I am shocked to see such lousy responses to this book. I have been using this book for two semesters in college and have had nothing but success with it. I have over 15 physics books and the most thorough and complete one is the Ohanian one. The strategy of this book ...

Being a double major in political science and economics, it seems that I'm always looking at ways to connect the two subjects. Prosperity and violence does this so brillitanly that i read the book in a matter of a few hours. The book talks about how trade has brought ...
The Search for Modern China
Jonathan D. Spence
W W Norton & Co Inc, 1990
Just a great resource on China
I've read over twenty books on China, and this is one of the best resources out there. At first I was caught off guard that Spence started in the 16th or 17th century, however, it provides a lot of insight into China's development and goes into detail about China's ...
Charles Ives: A Life With Music
Jan Swafford
W W Norton & Co Inc, 1996
A high-water mark in musical biographies.
Quite recently, I had the privilege of reading a copy of this book that was the personal copy of a musician who had been involved, in a rather unique way, in the centennial observation of Charlie Ives's birthday back in 1974. For reasons of geography, then musical ...
