Book Description
Holiday in Death
No one likes to be alone during the holidays. For New York's most posh dating service, Personally Yours, it is the season to bring lonely hearts together. But Lt. Eve Dallas, on the trail of a ritualistic serial killer, has made a disturbing discovery: all of the victims have been traced to Personally Yours.
Conspiracy in Death
With the precision of a surgeon, a serial killer preys on the most vulnerable souls of the world's city streets. The first victim: a sidewalk sleeper, found dead in New York City. No bruises, no signs of struggle. Just a laser-perfect, fist-sized hole where his heart had once been. Lieutenant Eve Dallas is assigned to investigate. But in the heat of a cat-and-mouse game with the killer, Dallas's job is suddenly on the line.
Loyalty in Death
An unknown bomber is stalking New York City. He is sending Eve Dallas taunting letters promising to wreak mass terror and destruction among the "corrupt masses." And when his cruel web of deceit and destruction threatens those she cares for most, Eve fights back. It's her city . . .it's her job . . . and it's hitting too close to home. Now, in a race against a ticking clock, Eve must make the pieces fit - before the city falls.

Book Description
Originally published nearly ten years ago, Peace, Love & Healing offered the revolutionary message that we have an innate ability to heal ourselves. Now proven by numerous scientific studies, the connection between our minds and our bodies has been increasingly accepted as fact throughout the mainstream medical community. In a new introduction, Dr. Bernie Siegel highligths current research on the relationships among consciousness, psychosocial factors, attitude and immune function.
"Love and peace of mind do protect us," Siegel writes. "They allow us to overcome the problems that life hands us. They teach us to survive...to live now...to have the courage to confront each day."

Change the mind, change the body--and get well!.......2007-05-09
I've submitted essentially the same review for Love, Medicine and Miracles as for Peace, Love and Healing. I read Love, Medicine and Miracles first and then Peace, Love and Healing and also recommend that others read them in that sequence: Peace, Love, and Healing is very much a continuation of the earlier book. Having said that, the most important thing is for anyone facing a health crisis to read them both. The sequence in which they're read is less important than that they be read--and absorbed.
I was introduced to these books shortly after having been diagnosed with cancer by another person who was (and still is, unfortunately) dealing with some major health issues. Although I've read tons of stuff relating to cancer and, especially, treatments of various types and stripes, I can't think of anything that provided greater value and (even) guidance to me during those challenging days, mainly because getting the "head" right is half the battle--and the half of the battle that far too many completely neglect. One of the things that Bernie makes imminently clear to the reader is that he/she, the reader, has a great deal of power over the course of his/her illness. That's an important message to someone feeling powerless. Plenty of powerful examples, thought exercises, etc. The messages are uplifting, hopeful, life-affirming, empowering, and above all, realistic.
Although I was vaguely aware of the mind-body connection before reading these books, I now understand that psychoneuroimmunology (if that is an unfamiliar term, you will become familiar with it by the time you've read Peace, Love and Healing) is real and can potentially be harnessed to the patient's great benefit: change the mind, change the body.
Naturally, I can't do justice to these books with a few short sentences here. But here's the bottom line: these books should be read by anyone facing a health crisis who sincerely wants to get well. But they should also be read by anyone who has a friend or loved one facing a health crisis. Read them yourself before you send them on to the friend/loved one. You'll find them valuable both for yourself and also for helping your friend/loved one deal with it. The books should be read by anyone facing a life-threatening illness, but their value transcends cancer (or other serious illness) self-help by a long shot, valuable as that is. Even if your present health seems to be good, you should still read these books. They will help you live more effectively even if you never get sick. And they will surely equip you to deal with a major illness if you ever have to face one.
Bernie, you're great!.......2007-04-03
I just love Bernie Siegal, and admire his openness and willingness to speak out and risk the ridicule of the traditional medical community. It seems his ideas really are important in healing!
Essential reading for everyone's health.......2002-02-28
Bernie Siegel writes in a very conversational-easy-to-read style in a book packed with information, facts, and understanding which is helpful for everyone regarding the connection between mind-body healing. Bernie Siegel helps us to take responsibility for our own health and to work as a team member with medical professionals in a co-operative style of relating.
Having fairly recently been diagnosed with an advanced cancer this book helped me to see cancer in a new light.
Everyone would bemnefit from reading this book for their health in general.
Excellent book!.......2001-09-28
I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in their health! You will learn about true healing, from the inside out.
Highest Praise to Dr Bernie Siegel.......2000-08-24
I have been blessed to attend several of his workshops & have met & talked with him in person & frequently email back & forth, He is a very very special person & he helped me successfully control a life threatening rare illness so I could use the illness as a gift & catalyst for living well & being able to achieve my dreams -Marsha Lampert MBA MS Wantagh NY

Simple but complete recipes.......2007-07-25
This book is easy to read and simple to use, but has all the good information you need to cook for your dog. They even break up the recipes based on the weight of your dog so you don't have to figure it out yourself. There is a basic nutrition breakdown for each recipe. Once you know what you're doing, you'll probably want to get some more complicated books about canine nutrition to start making up your own recipes; but this is a great book to get you started.
Great book!.......2007-07-18
This book is my first cooking book for my dog. My dog(2yrs.) had been so picky what he eats. I tried many different brand of dog foods, can foods and frozen raw food. He doesn't care about kibbles... He eats kibbles one cup in 2 days for staying alive.(he was 10-15 lb. under weight) He eats can food IF there is whole chiken thigh, or ...some whole thing. He doesn't like mushy can food.) Frozen raw food... he has sensitive stomach. If its still too cold, he will throw up) I know he likes can food, but I didn't want to keep feeding him can food because I don't believe they have enough nutrients. I start thinking about cooking for him. I don't know why I bought this book, but I feel lucky. This book is really easy to read and easy to understand. There are 4 recipes for different weighs(5,10,15,20,25,....50,60,70,....150 lb.) One is basic recipe, other 3 are gourmet recipes. Hard part for me was to find vitamin and mineral supplement. I didn't understand what I was looking for in the supplement.Other than that, it is easy to make and most importantly, my dog LOVEs his food now. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a recipe book for dogs.

Great book.......2007-05-07
I read his books as a teen and loved them. Bought the whole set for my grandsons, [teens]. They laughed until they cried. [so did I].
Heartwarming.......2007-04-11
This book has many heartwarming stories. It really discribes the way veterinary work was handled years ago. Mr. Herriot is a great story teller.
Wondeful and Warm.......2007-02-21
This book has been sitting on my bookshelf for a while because I passed it over for other newer books... How sorry I am I waited this long! This book is so good... the stories about the different dogs are heartwarming, and heartwrenching...they are filled with almost any dog immaginable and are a delight to read especially for dog lovers. I can't recommend this book enough...
fast and business-like.......2007-01-16
The book arrived in VERY short time, and it was
getting so close to Christmas! I wrapped and mailed
it to a cousin.
50 Warm And Comforting. Hug Your Dog!.......2006-08-13
Do you have a passion for animals? If so, you'll inhale this book. The authors heartfelt emotions can be felt on every page. He clearly adored the animals he cared for over the decades. He described the colorful European countryside, the diverse pets, and the people who owned them in fine detail. Each story is accompanied by an ink sketch that added some warm visuals. My favorite stories were of "Tricki Woo", "Judy The Nurse Dog", "Granville Bennett", and "Cigar." What was nice is that since the stories were broken up, you could not lose your place when you took a break. Yet, I only took one because this was a fast page turner. I have had several dogs in my life and these are the most honest depictions of dog behavior I have read thus far. All animal lovers will enjoy this. Time to hug my dog and adopt another.

Book Description
Ever since she was old enough to help her grandmother in the garden, Sharon Lovejoy has spent her life working with plants--and along the way, through "trowel and error," she's accumulated hundreds and hundreds of remedies, tips, short-cuts, and cure-alls. Now Ms. Lovejoy--author of Roots, Shoots, Buckets & Boots and the award-winning Sunflower Houses--does for the garden what Heloise or the Queen of Clean does for the household. Trowel and Error collects all of her homespun garden advice into an inviting, environmentally friendly, whimsically illustrated yet dead-on helpful book that will benefit every gardener, beginner or experienced.
Cure plant viruses with spoiled milk. Steep a natural and effective insecticide out of fresh basil. Place flat stones under squash or melons to hasten ripening. Recycle an old apple corer as the perfect dibber for muscari and other small bulbs. Start rosemary cuttings in a green glass bottle. Sprinkle baby powder over seedlings to discourage rabbits. Crush a garlic clove and apply it to your skin as an insect repellent. From urging the reader to take an occasional shower with the houseplants to giving all-natural gardenside first aid, Trowel and Error is a direct line to the kind of practical wisdom that comes only after a lifetime of experience. The book is indexed by problem, plant, pest, and solution, and includes a list of tools and common household items--borax, cornmeal, vinegar--that completes the gardener's arsenal.
Customer Reviews:
a must have.......2007-05-17
This is a great "sitting by the garden" book. I have learned a lot, and it has reinforced some things I thought I already knew. Lots of great ideas, and I love the organic ways to take care of gardens/pests/etc.
For My Husband.......2007-03-03
He loves it so far, and I'm enjoying the bits I''m getting to read.
Trowel and Error: Over 700 Tips, Remedies and Shortcuts..........2007-01-11
As an avid collector of gardening books, I am proud to add this to my library. It is a fun, quick read with no nonsense everyday tips and remedies for the novice to the experienced gardener. It is easily becoming my first reference when tackling the out-of-doors, and it is small enough to tote around the yard as I work. No more "rummaging thru" pages of information. Everything is at my fingertips. THANK YOU Sharon !!
Trowel & Error: quick guide to gardening!.......2007-01-09
During the summer of 2006 I purchased "Trowel and Error" since I am an avid gardener and was looking to add another good reference book about gardening to my library. Once I got it home I realized that this book is a quick guide to gardening and would be very useful to beginning gardeners. I recently moved into a brand new neighborhood in Wetumpka Alabama and discovered that most of my new neighbors are novices to gardening and are always asking me gardening questions, so I decided this book is perfect for them as beginners. I purchased a book for all my beginning gardner friends and each of my four daughters. They all love it.
Instantly Used!.......2006-11-05
I used her ideas the very next day in both my garden and in the elementary school garden where I volunteer.
The book is easy to read and packed with information. The organization could be improved but that might prevent serendipitous discoveries. It really is worthwhile to read every page--whether you think you need it or not!

Book Description
This book is the first in a series which forms a part of the rich Soviet helminthological literature published in recent years. It deals with 197 species of nematodes belonging to suborders Spirurata and Filariata, re-examining and revising earlier descriptions and concepts related to them. A historical survey of the taxonomy of worms is given first, with keys to the various major groups and diagnoses of the nematode subclasses and orders. Even at this stage, certain new and interesting ideas are put forward. After a general account of the morphology and anatomy of each suborder, a diagnosis of each genius is given, together with an outline and drawing of its type species.

Book Description
You are about to read the autobiography of an extraordinary man. Born in Spain on the eve of the Spanish Civil War, Roger Fernández served as shepherd to his family's flock in the hills of El Bierzo. Resisting the authoritarian oppression of Franco's Spain, his family became a target for reprisal, and fled. Later, as a man, Roger would again face their despotic oppressor. As the cold war raged, Roger served as translator to the Cuban State Press Agency. Rankling under the restrictions of Fidel's Communist state, Roger dared speak of freedom, thus bringing suspicion upon himself. Pursued by Castro's secret police, he fled Havana to the US and freedom. Many years later he would confront Castro face to face, and count himself as one of the few to have survived such audacity. A facility with languages led him to a life as an educator, during which he has served as head of the Department of Foreign Languages and Humanities at Los Angeles City College. His love of travel has taken him across Europe, the US, Asia and Africa, and hundreds of students have been introduced to his native Spain on trips organized under his auspices. Here his adventures are related in his understated prose. Here too, lie the shards of a broken marriage, and the ensuing heartbreak and despair, yet through it all, a determination to overcome obstacles and to reach goals?a valuable lesson for young readers struggling in their own lives. Through every page runs a vein of absolute candor, and an autobiography can aspire to no more. Those who enjoy reading truth, and recognize it when they read it will find much to enjoy in these pages.

A HISPANIC SUCCESS STORY FOR TODAY'S YOUTH.......2002-04-07
This is a story about America working as it has for millions of immigrants. The story of
one man making it in America, it testifies to the fact that America's promise is as true today
as it has ever been. This book should be offered to Hispanic youth as an example of what
they, themselves can accomplish in America.
