Customer Reviews:

Just all right.......2000-03-11

Calder is my favorite artist ever. This book captures many of his different styles of works, but it needs photos of his standing mobiles, such as Little Parasite. The book has only a couple photos of unspectacular standing mobiles.

Book Description

Continuing Patrick McGilligan's highly acclaimed series on Hollywood screenwriters, these engrossing, informative, provocative interviews give wonderfully detailed and personal stories from veteran screenwriters of the seventies and eighties focusing on their craft, their lives, and their profession. Backstory 4 is a riveting insider's look at how movies get made; a rich perspective on many of the great movies, directors, and actors of the seventies and eighties; and an articulate, forthright commentary on the art and the business of screenwriting.
The screenwriters interviewed for this volume include well-known Oscar winners as well as cult filmmakers, important writers who were also distinguished directors, and key practitioners of every commercial genre. These writers have worked with Steven Spielberg, Woody Allen, Peter Bogdanovich, George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Altman, Clint Eastwood, and other film giants of the so-called New Hollywood. The stories of their collaborations--some divine, some disastrous--provide some of the most fascinating material in this volume. They also discuss topics including how they got started writing screenplays, their working routines, their professional relationships, their influences, and the work of other major writers and directors.
Backstory 4 features interviews with Robert Benton, Larry Cohen, Blake Edwards, Walter Hill, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, Lawrence Kasdan, Elmore Leonard, Paul Mazursky, Nancy Meyers, John Milius, Frederic Raphael, Alvin Sargent, and Donald E. Westlake.

You don't have to be THAT gutsy!.......2007-02-06

I must admit that I'm a very good crossword solver, so I had high hopes for this book. Some of the crosswords are tough, yes, but some are a breeze. So far there hasn't been one that I couldn't finish. I don't time myself at all, so I can't say I'd be able to complete one in 3, or even 10, minutes. All in all, the puzzles are challenging, but do-able for the seasoned crossword addict. Another thing: the format of the book is much smaller than I'm used to, but that does make it more portable than most.

If your attention is attracted by the title of this book, you are not alone. Unfortunately it is a book that does not stand up to its promise. Its virtue--it is mercifully short. I sincerely wish something good could be said for this book. My advice is don't spend your time or money on this.

Book Description

Nearly three years after 9/11, the war on terror is far from over. In fact, a leading terrorism expert argues that despite the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the efforts of the Department of Homeland Security, weÂ're not really any safer at all.

Harvey Kushner, a respected adviser to the FBI, the FAA, the INS, and other government agencies, offers frightening new evidence of a unified Islamic terrorist network that is operating inside the United States and planning new opportunities to strike.

Kushner identifies and assesses the violent plans of these Islamic organizations and individuals who take advantage of our reluctance to engage in ethnic profiling. He supports his claims with never-before-seen documents from top-level government sources, exposing a secret network of Arab intelligence agencies, terrorists, university professors, corrupt imams and other religious leaders, and violent criminals.

Some members of this network are recent immigrants; others have been American citizens for years. Some are laundering money from abroad through seemingly innocuous charities and mosques. Some have even infiltrated our military as Arabic translators and Muslim chaplains.

Finding and stopping these conspiracies will require drastic changes in the way Americans think about terrorism. KushnerÂ's proposals will spark a lively but essential debate about homeland security, civil liberties, immigration, law enforcement, and our nationÂ's most basic values and ideals.

WOW.......2006-09-09

The best description of the Islamic threat between two covers. Read it and arm yourself with the facts.

Know who deceives.......2006-08-29

This is a good compliment to the 9/11 commission report. Should be read by all. Denial is not going to make the problem go away. The book is easily understandable, concise and to the point. The book deals with Islamic networks in our universities, charities, prisons, and mosques. The drug connections, counterfeiting rings, our media, profiling and our government agencies are also covered.

A Must Read For Every American........2006-08-27

A very informative book, about how Islam wants to take over America and the Western World by any means. If you are a Jew,
Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, you are an infidel, convert to Islam
or "DIE" is the way they think.

Harveys the man!.......2006-08-27

Holy War on the homefront is a homerun! It is packed with the relevant truths of exactly what has been going on in America for a long time now, long before September 11, 2001. It takes the reader on a Journey that starts in our universities and winds through our prison system, Muslim charities, the counterfeiting rings and the drug cartels. Not since American Jihad by Steve Emerson, has a book given me more factual information in real world easy to follow format. These secret Islamic Terror networks are not just the big name Muslim organizations, but are the mom and pop shops that are in every major city in America. Like American Jihad, I will probably be reading this book more than once.

Freak Out Over Old News.......2006-05-08

This book was a great disappointment. Maybe if it had been printed BEFORE 9/11 it might have been worth talking about, but it is all old news. Not only that, but Kushner writes like a raving, paranoid lunatic on a caffeine binge. Obviously he loves to freak out and thinks you should be hysterical, too.
For instance, he believes that every neighborhood mosque is preaching bloody jihad against America, and every Muslim is a wannabe suicide bomber. Not.
If you haven't already picked up 99% of this material from listening to Fox News you have must have willfully turned down your hearing aid.

A patch-dynamics approach to savanna dynamics and woody plant encroachment - Insights from an arid savanna [An article from: Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics]

Book Description

Description:
The coexistence of woody and grassy plants in savannas has often been attributed to a rooting-niche separation (two-layer hypothesis). Water was assumed to be the limiting resource for both growth forms and grasses were assumed to extract water from the upper soil layer and trees and bushes from the lower layers. Woody plant encroachment (i.e. an increase in density of woody plants often unpalatable to domestic livestock) is a serious problem in many savannas and is believed to be the result of overgrazing in 'two-layer systems'. Recent research has questioned the universality of both the two-layer hypothesis and the hypothesis that overgrazing is the cause of woody plant encroachment. We present an alternative hypothesis explaining both tree-grass coexistence and woody plant encroachment in arid savannas. We propose that woody plant encroachment is part of a cyclical succession between open savanna and woody dominance and is driven by two factors: rainfall that is highly variable in space and time, and inter-tree competition. In this case, savanna landscapes are composed of many patches (a few hectares in size) in different states of transition between grassy and woody dominance, i.e. we hypothesize that arid savannas are patch-dynamic systems. We summarize patterns of tree distribution observed in an arid savanna in Namibia and show that these patterns are in agreement with the patch-dynamic savanna hypothesis. We discuss the applicability of this hypothesis to fire-dominated savannas, in which rainfall variability is low and fire drives spatial heterogeneity. We conclude that field studies are more likely to contribute to a general understanding of tree-grass coexistence and woody plant encroachment if they consider both primary (rain and nutrients) and secondary (fire and grazing) determinants of patch properties across different savannas.

Whether you're looking for the restroom in The Rijksmuseum, free beer at the Heineken Brewery, information at The Prostitution Information Centre, yellow corduroy flares at the Waterlooplein market, a canal bike to cruise the waterways, a primer on Dutch cheese, or where to dial for BBC World Service broadcasts--look no further. Amsterdam: The Rough Guide can help you fulfill these and thousands of other needs.

There are many reasons to visit Amsterdam, not the least of which could be its breath-of-fresh-air qualities compared to the rush of other cities. As the authors explain, "With its tree-lined canals, cobbled streets, tinkling bicycle bells and stately architecture, Amsterdam is a world away from the traffic and noise of other European city centres--clean, modern and quiet, while still retaining a perfectly preserved 400-year-old centre."

The Rough Guide's maps include sights, bars, hotels, restaurants, clubs, and public transport routes. They're easy to read and well-marked and are accompanied by choice-provoking tidbits about places to stay and nearby eateries and drinkeries: "Well-worn but clean rooms awaiting imminent renovation, friendly and helpful staff," "Small, homely and serving delicious pancakes," "Tiny place that looks and feels like an African mud hut, except for the hip-hop beats. Grass specialists."

Book Description

INTRODUCTION

Amsterdam is a compact, instantly likeable city. It's appealing to look at and pleasing to walk around, an intriguing mix of the parochial and the international; it also has a welcoming attitude towards visitors and a uniquely youthful orientation, shaped by the liberal counterculture of the last four decades. It's hard not to feel drawn by the buzz of open-air summer events, by the cheery intimacy of the city's clubs and bars, and by the Dutch facility with languages: just about everyone you meet in Amsterdam will be able to speak good-to-fluent English, on top of their own native tongue, and often more than a smattering of French and German too.

The city's layout is determined by a web of canals radiating out from an historical core to loop right round the centre. These planned, seventeenth-century extensions to the medieval town make for a uniquely elegant urban environment, with tall gabled houses reflected in their black-green waters. This is the city at its most beguiling, a world away from the traffic and noise of many other European city centres, and it has made Amsterdam one of the continent's most popular short-haul destinations. These charms are supplemented by a string of first-rate attractions, most notably the Anne Frankhuis, where the young Jewish diarist hid away during the German occupation of World War II, the Rijksmuseum, with its wonderful collection of Dutch paintings, including several of Rembrandt's finest works, and the peerless Vincent van Gogh Museum, with the world's largest collection of the artist's work.

However, it's Amsterdam's population and politics that constitute its most enduring characteristics. Celebrated during the 1960s and 1970s for its radical permissiveness, the city mellowed only marginally during the 1980s, and, despite the gentrification of the last twenty years, it retains a laid-back feel. That said, it is far from being as cosmopolitan a city as, say, London or Paris: despite the huge numbers of immigrants from the former colonies in Surinam and Indonesia, as well as Morocco and Turkey - to name but a few - almost all live and work outside the centre and can seem almost invisible to the casual visitor. Indeed, there is an ethnic and social homogeneity in the city centre that seems to run counter to everything you may have heard of Dutch integration.

The apparent contradiction embodies much of the spirit of Amsterdam. The city is world famous as a place where the possession and sale of cannabis are effectively legal - or at least decriminalized - and yet, for the most part, Amsterdammers themselves can't really be bothered with the stuff. And while Amsterdam is renowned for its tolerance towards all styles of behaviour and dress, a primmer, more correct-thinking big city, with a more mainstream dress sense, would be hard to find. Behind the cosy cafés and dreamy canals lurks the suspicion that Amsterdammers' hearts lie squarely in their wallets, and while newcomers might see the city as a liberal haven, locals can seem just as indifferent to this as well.

In recent years, a string of hardline city mayors have taken this conservatism on board and seem to have embarked on a generally successful - if often unspoken - policy of squashing Amsterdam's image as a counterculture icon and depicting it instead as a centre for business and international high finance. Almost all the inner-city squats - which once well-nigh defined local people-power - are gone or legalized, and coffeeshops have been forced to choose between selling dope or alcohol, and, if only for economic reasons, many have switched to the latter. Such shifts in attitude, combined with alterations to the cityscape, in the form of large-scale urban development on the outskirts and regeneration within, combine to create an unmistakeable feeling that Amsterdam and its people are busy reinventing themselves, writing off their hippyfied history to return to earlier, more stolid days.

Nevertheless, Amsterdam remains a casual and intimate place, and Amsterdammers themselves make much of their city and its attractions being gezellig, a rather overused Dutch word roughly corresponding to a combination of "cosy", "lived-in" and "warmly convivial". Nowhere is this more applicable than in the city's unparalleled selection of drinking places, whether you choose a traditional brown bar or one of a raft of newer, designer cafés, or grand cafés. The city boasts dozens of great restaurants too, with its Indonesian cuisine second-to-none, and is at the forefront of contemporary European film, dance, drama and music. The city has several top-rank jazz venues and the Concertgebouw concert hall is home to one of the world's leading orchestras. The club scene is restrained by the standard of other main cities, although the city's many gay bars and clubs partly justify Amsterdam's claim to be the "Gay Capital of Europe".

Used this guidebook constantly on my trip.......2000-04-28

I just got back from two weeks in the Netherlands on my own, one week of which I spent in Amsterdam. I carried this book with me as I went and consulted it a lot. It helped me decide which coffeeshops to visit, pointing me away from high-neon blaring tourist traps to fun little places like Rusland and the Grey Area. It helped me find restaurants. I liked the neighborhood-by-neighborhood maps. And I loved the glossary of Dutch food terms! The history of Amsterdam in this book felt vibrant and alive, unlike the bowdlerized version given in the Lonely Planet guide. (Compare the descriptions of the Lieverdje and the Provos to see what the LP guide leaves out.) Good guidebook. Thumbs up!

All of Amsterdam....in one book.......2000-03-18

If you are looking for a book that will tell you everything you ever needed to know about Amsterdam...look no farther. I have been to Amsterdam three times before, but I never knew there was so much to see, or the history about the places there. This book combines everything. It has great maps, good directions, and colorful historical information. No one would be lost or at a loss of things to do with this book. A must for any traveler going to Amsterdam.

Packed with essential details.......1999-11-17

Easily the best travel guide to Amsterdam and one of the best travel guides I've used. Rough Guides always pack a lot of information and this edition is no different. From how to use the trams to an informative historical backround section, this guide can not be beat.

This book is written for people coming from England.......1999-07-25

It is not a very helpful book, in my opinion. Amsterdam is the only major city in the world where you can go and smoke a joint legally and they spend exactly two paragraphs mentioning that. How about a list of good coffee shops, etc.?

The book is written by Europeans for EU people and spends a lot of time talking about how you can do things with your EU documents. It has lots of fluffy background information but less hard up-to-the minute helpful lists. This edition was written in 1997.

An excellent guide.......1997-09-19

The best guide to the city I've ever used. Packed with masses of practical/cultural information and money-saving hints, this is among the best of a superb guide series, not yet well-known in the US
