Customer Reviews:
Fantastic concept!!.......2003-10-30
My son is 37 months old -- he just sat with this book for almost two full hours. He thinks it's a total blast. The pictures are very cute and very easy to do.
The inks washed off of his fingers *very* easily.
I'm getting the rest of them!
A spot that is more than a dot.......2003-08-08
Another book by Klutz that appeals to the kid inside. My favorites are spot the dog and dot the cat...the penguin is darling as is the moose. When it comes to making correspondence a bit more fun, these are the books to grab. Fun for everyone who likes to doodle.

Dinosaur Stencilling Book.......2007-01-13
My son loves this book. He uses it at school as well and his teacher recommended it to us. He can sit down and trace the dinosaur for long times and it makes him concentrate.

Her best book yet!.......2002-12-16
I am loving this new book by Jill Hassler-Scoop, et al.! It has thoroughly explained integration and the psychological aspects of riding. It has helped me organize my rides better and keep my training calm and effective. It is very easy to read and understand and is the type of book you can refer back to again and again to "refresh" your riding attitudes. I am buying it for my riding buddies for Christmas!

Book Description
Traveling with your dog across the United States can indeed be frustrating for the active dog owner. Many popular destinations such as American national parks do not welcome dogs. As an active dog owner you know the scenario. You read about a pristine trail enthusiastically described in a guidebook and, with great anticipation, you head there only to discover: NO DOGS ALLOWED.
When we travel, we want our dogs with us.
Customer Reviews:
The Canine Hiker Will Love It.......2005-07-21
This book is very informative and helpful in preparing for a hike, and deciding where to go.
Good, but no perfect.......2005-07-20
This book is a handy starting guide for planning any hiking trip or some other just general trips with your dog. It does include a few handy tips and just general things that apply to people as well. It's decent, but not inclusive. Of course the book would be much bigger if *everything* was included. Also it can be kind of hard to figure out where the hiking is, as it's not listed by state, but by mountain names.
An excellent and "canine companion friendly" guidebook.......2004-04-03
The Canine Hiker's Bible is an excellent and "canine companion friendly" guidebook to more than 225 dog-friendly parks and trails in the United States and Canada. Many trails presented in popular guidebooks are "no dogs allowed"; The Canine Hiker's Bible is packed from cover to cover with black-and-white photographs, descriptive information, rules and regulations for dogs in 102 of the most-visited national lands in the United States, practical tips for caring for a dog while hiking in high altitudes or desert conditions, and so much more. The Canine Hiker's Bible is very highly recommended for nature and wilderness enthusiasts who would welcome the accompaniment of their canine companion.
Book Description
A comprehensive home furnishings catalog from the height of the popularity of Mission design, reprinted from a rare original, illustrating and describing 400 items from beds and highboys to arm chairs and kitchen cabinets, many designed to be shipped knocked-down for reassembly at home. With invaluable information on woods, finishes, upholstery, colors, more.
Customer Reviews:
Excellent Reference Source.......1997-12-17
This is an exact copy of the Come-Packt Furniture Catalog that individuals would order from in the early 1900's, right down to the shipping charges. This is not a how-to manual. It has a color card in the back of the various stain and leather options available. The only drawback of the book is the fact that the pictures are slightly blurred and not very large. If you're trying to transfer measurements to a full-scale drawing, it could be difficult.
Book Description

Book Description
* Examines the social, political and environmental issues at stake and the acute conflicts over the siting of industrial facilities and infrastructure
* Essential reading for all involved in land use planning and facility siting at all levels and in all situations
* New in the Risk, Society and Policy Series
From dams to landfill sites and power plants to radioactive waste repositories, the siting of facilities is a veritable minefield of conflicting data, politics, perception and controversy for industry, planners and authorities and citizens. This penetrating new edited collection examines risk, power and identity in contests over the siting of infrastructure and industrial facilities. Going beyond nimby-ism, experts in a variety of fields bring a multi-perspective analysis to case studies from the UK, US and Europe and expose the political and cultural dimensions of siting conflicts. In the process they show how place attachment and notions of landscape and local identity play a prominent role in resistance to 'development'.

Product Description
An introduction to solar energy that is specifically designed for junior- and senior-level science and engineering students who want a thorough understanding of the principles behind solar energy, as well as a solid preparation for more advanced study, this book is divided into four parts. The first three chapters deal with the sun, its apparent motion across the sky, and the insulation it provides at the earth's surface. Chapters 4 and 5 survey the principles of heat transfer and optics, and present the background material for the next two chapters. Chapters 6 and 7 cover solar heaters with applications to space heating and hot water supply systems, and include topics such as flat plate collectors, arrays, thermal storage, and solar assisted systems. Chapters 8 and 9 discuss thermodynamic and photovoltaic conversion of solar energy to useful work. Two appendixes are included. One summarizes the formulas for the sun's motion, and the other derives approximate equations for diffuse solar flux.

Yes! The Web design book that many have prayed for is here! Roger Black has rejuvenated many a magazine with his insight into how graphic arts really work. Now he turns his well-toned eye to new media, demonstrating which principles are universal, which simply don't translate well from print, and which allegedly great new ideas should be jettisoned before they do any further harm. Just thumb through this gorgeous book and you'll see that Black knows how to make graphics sing or howl--on a newspaper page or on a 14-inch monitor. Highly recommended.
Book Description
- Reveals Roger Black's tips, technology secrets, and Web revelations
- Documents Roger Black's transition from print media to Web media
- Includes over four dozen real-world Photoshop techniques
Customer Reviews:
A web site hobbyist gets schooled.......2002-11-04
I run a website purely as hobby. Having never taken a single graphic design or html course, or read a single book on the subject, I picked up this book at a book wholesaler and got it out of curiosity. I found it to be a non-threatening and friendly introduction to basic rules of web design. Before I went simply on what I thought looked good and what loaded fast. Now I know just a little bit more that can really make a page work well. Particularly helpful is the chapter called "Web sites that DON'T work."
Black knows what's what.......2002-01-05
If you're passionate about Web design and want to do it right the first time out, then read Roger's book Web Sites That Work. This is the kind of advice that companies such as MSN and CondeNast pay big bucks for!
The book is well-designed itself and almost comes off as a photo essay in parts with plenty of pictures of our hero, Roger Black, studying the Web and transforming pages into online art forms.
In this book, you'll learn valuable tips about what to do and
NOT to do with your Web site. Roger also speaks extensively
on the principles of online navigation, personalization,
transaction, teamwork, and the future of the Net.
Aside from the stellar pointers, the book has plenty of candid
Roger action shots to make any fan jump for joy.
It's ok, but if you want the best get...........2001-09-25
It's ok, Roger definetly has some knowledge. The best information comes from Jakob Nielsen, check out his site useit.com and his books to design successful, user-friendly, and attractive sites.
Not worth the Money.......2001-06-21
Though a beautiful book, it's not worth the price tag. The book goes through Mr. Black's career as a designer, both for magazines and web pages. The "web sites that work" are only Mr. Black's. He does not go over other web pages outside his company except to show those that do not work. Some beautiful glossy pages and pictures give you a lot of ideas for your own pages, but that can probably be found elsewhere as well. There is almost no technical information here, just a lot of glossy pictures.
Great web theory.......2001-02-09
If you are looking to learn how to build a web site, and intuitive and well thought out web site that is user centric, then this book can offer a lot of good information for you. This book does not gie you HTML code lessons or how to make buttons. What it does do is cover some excellent web theory. As others have mentioned, this book is too full of Roger Black's ego and useless graphics and pictures. Sort through his self boasting and you'll get a good deal out of this book. Is it worth the price? I can honestly say that I did get a lot out of it, but what I got most out of this book was confirmation of my own usability theory of the web. So for me, yes it was worth it.
